What is being measured

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

  1. CTX

  1. P1NP

    Bone formation measured as procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (P1NP) in serum.

    Measured: -10 to 240 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Meal test, GIP and GLP-2 in people with Spinal Cord Injuries, run by University of Copenhagen 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 4 inclusion and 7 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 10 May 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 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Charlotte B Christiansen, PhD (+45 22459802, cbchristiansen@sund.ku.dk), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

CTX (time frame: -10 to 240 minutes). 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 10 May 2023.
