What is being measured

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

  1. Change in maximal voluntary contraction (MVC)

    Measured by isokinetic dynamometer

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  2. Change in rate of force development (RFD)

    Measured by isokinetic dynamometer

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  3. Change in countermovement jump height (CMJ)

    Measured by force plate

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  4. Change in subjective pain score

    Measured by visual analogue scale

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  5. Change in Achilles tendon cross-sectional area

    Measured by ultrasound

    Measured: Baseline and after 12 weeks

  6. Change in Vastus Lateralis fibre length

    Measured by ultrasound

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  7. Change in collagen related blood markers

    Measured by blood analysis

    Measured: Baseline (pre, post, 2 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 2 hours, 24 hours, 48 hours)

  8. Change in Achilles tendon echo intensity

    Measured by ultrasound

    Measured: Baseline and after 12 weeks

  9. Change in Vastus Lateralis echo intensity

    Measured by ultrasound

    Measured: Baseline and after 12 weeks

  10. Change in body composition parameters (fat mass, fat-free mass, extracellular mass, body cell mass)

    Measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis

    Measured: Baseline and after 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Collagen and Concurrent training in people with Recovery, run by University of Vienna at 1 site in Austria.

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 6 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 28 Aug 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 Austria. 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?

Change in maximal voluntary contraction (MVC) (time frame: Baseline (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours) and after 12 weeks (pre, post, 24 hours, 48 hours)). The study lists 10 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05220371, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 28 Aug 2023.
