Trial summary

Exposure to radiation, such as during routine CTs, bone scans, or X-rays, causes oxidative stress which can damage the DNA (your genetic material) within your white blood cells. While the amount of DNA damage that may occur from one scan is not harmful to your overall health, there could be concerning damage in… Read more about this study

About this study

Exposure to radiation, such as during routine CTs, bone scans, or X-rays, causes oxidative stress which can damage the DNA (your genetic material) within your white blood cells. While the amount of DNA damage that may occur from one scan is not harmful to your overall health, there could be concerning damage in patients who are constantly exposed to this radiation. Currently, there is no way to prevent DNA damage during a medical scan. One potential way to fight the oxidative stress caused by radiation is to take an antioxidant before a scan. The purpose of this study is to see if a combination of antioxidants can protect someone from the damage that radiation causes to the DNA of their white blood cells.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Multi-nutrient supplement in people with Oxidative Stress and DNA Damage, Radiation Induced, run by McMaster 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 2 inclusion and 4 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 23 Oct 2023. 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.

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?

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?

Number of gamma-H2Ax foci per PBMC nucleus (time frame: Three hours following radiation exposure). 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 23 Oct 2023.
