About this study

Official title: Comparison of Effect of Animal and Plant Sources of Omega-3 PUFA in Prevention of Cardiovascular and Metabolic Diseases

The study is aimed to assess the efficacy of animal, plant sources of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 pharmacological supplements on obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease.

Read the detailed description

More than four million people in Europe (47%) and more than 1.9 million people in European Union (EU) (40%) die of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) every year. CVD mortality in EU is 43% in women and 36% in men. In Central and Eastern Europe, much more people die of CVD than in Western, Northern and Southern European countries. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that number of deaths in Slovakia is much higher than in Western European countries, even higher than in V4 countries - Slovakia, Czech Republic, Poland and Hungary

In the first stage of the project fatty acids will be analyzed with the focus on the ratio of omega-6 and omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids in fatty food for normal consumption and in nutritional supplements containing omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids.

In the second phase of the project risk factors of cardiovascular diseases for people without and people with a history of cardiovascular disease will be monitored and compared. There will be monitored and compared a wide range of laboratory markers of clinical biochemistry, immunology, pathological physiology in order to determine cardiovascular risk for men and women in different age categories.

The third stage will monitor the effect of natural plant and animal sources and pharmacological nutritional supplements with omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids on obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular risk factors.

The aim of this study is to assess the efficacy of animal, plant sources of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and omega-3 pharmacological supplements on obesity, metabolic syndrome and cardiovascular disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Chia seeds supplementation (25 g), Chia seeds supplementation (15 g) and Combine supplementation: chia seeds (15g) and fish oil Maxi Cor 70+20 in people with Obesity, Abdominal and Metabolic Syndrome, run by Pavol Jozef Safarik University at 1 site in Slovakia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Mar 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Slovakia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Zdenka Hertelyová, Dr. PhD. (+421552343225, zdenka.hertelyova@upjs.sk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Body mass index (time frame: 6 months). The study lists 11 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Mar 2020.
