About this study

Official title: The Effect of Soluble Fiber Dextrin on Subjective and Physiological Markers of Appetite: a Randomized Trial

This study examines the effect of soluble fiber dextrin on food intake, appetite, and physiological markers of appetite. Adults aged 18-45 years with a BMI were recruited for this study. Participants were given two doses of SFD in the morning and appetite, food intake and physiological markers of appetite were measured over 10 years.

Read the detailed description

Overweight and obesity are leading health problems. The study investigates the effect of a food ingredient from two different sources at two different doses on food intake and appetite markers over a 10 hour period. All participants reported to the laboratory first thing in the morning and remained in the laboratory until after their evening meal. A fixed breakfast was served but the participants were free to eat as much as they liked at lunch and dinner. Blood was taken at regular intervals during the day and assayed for glucose and several hormones related to appetite. Subjective measures of appetite were also collected over the 10 hour test session.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Soluble Fiber Dextrin in people with Appetitive Behavior, run by Iowa State University.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Oct 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Food intake (time frame: 10 hours). 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 22 Oct 2020.
