Official title: Impact of Orally Administered BPM31510 on Mitochondrial Energetics in Older

This study is being done to gather data on whether oral supplementation of CoQ10 is enriched in the blood and muscles in older adults with sarcopenia. This study involves 28 consecutive days of oral CoQ10 supplementation to explore changes in muscle strength, aerobic capacity and physical function with CoQ10 supplementation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • BPM31510Drug

    A total of 3200 mg of BPM 31510 or placebo will be self-administered daily by subjects before the morning, afternoon, and evening meals, with no fewer than 4 and no more than 6 hours elapsed between doses during the daytime.

  • PlaceboOther

    A total of 3200 mg of BPM 31510 or placebo will be self-administered daily by subjects before the morning, afternoon, and evening meals, with no fewer than 4 and no more than 6 hours elapsed between doses during the daytime.

What is being measured

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

  1. Measurement of skeletal muscle

    We will evaluate changes in mitochondrial function (respiration) on permeabilized skeletal muscle fiber bundles obtained from biopsies of the vastus lateralis and blood draws, respectively. Blood and muscle biospecimens will also be obtained for multi-omics analysis.

    Measured: Following 28 days of treatment

  2. Measurement of platelet CoQ10 level

    We will evaluate changes in mitochondrial function (respiration) on cells (platelets) obtained from biopsies of the vastus lateralis and blood draws, respectively. Blood and muscle biospecimens will also be obtained for multi-omics analysis.

    Measured: Following 28 days of treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing BPM31510 in people with Sarcopenia, run by AdventHealth Translational Research Institute at 1 site in United States.

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 5 inclusion and 26 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The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Jul 2023. 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 United States. 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.

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?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Measurement of skeletal muscle (time frame: Following 28 days of treatment). The study lists 2 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 24 Jul 2023.
