About this study

Official title: Effect of Intake of Hydrolyzed Krill Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Isolate and Soy Protein Isolate on Plasma Amino Acid Profile

Purpose: To examine the absorption of three different protein sources: hydrolyzed krill protein isolate, whey protein isolate, and soy protein isolate.

Read the detailed description

Design and Method: Randomized, controlled, double-blind cross-study, in which 12 healthy adult young men in randomized order ingest 35 g of protein of crude protein from one of the three protein sources or water on four different experimental days. Before and up to three hours after ingestion of the test beverage, blood samples are collected for 8 time points during each experimental day.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Amino acids concentrations

    Measurement of changes in amino acids concentrations in the blood

    Measured: 10 minutes prior to supplement up to 180 minutes after supplement

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)

    Measurements of changes in Hunger and satiety using 100 mm Visual Analogue Scores

    Measured: 10 minutes prior to supplement up to 180 minutes after supplement

  2. Insulin

    Changes in serum insulin

    Measured: 10 minutes prior to supplement up to 180 minutes after supplement

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Krill protein hydrolysate, Soy protein isolate and Whey protein isolate in people with Human Nutrition, run by Mette Hansen at 1 site in Denmark.

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 3 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 29 Apr 2021. 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 Denmark. 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. 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?

Amino acids concentrations (time frame: 10 minutes prior to supplement up to 180 minutes after supplement). 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 29 Apr 2021.
