About this study

Official title: Vitamin D Supplementation, Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) and Plasma Vitamin D Response Among Malaysian Female Adults: Double Blinded, Randomised Clinical Trial of Efficacy

This clinical trial was designed to determine the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation on plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] and intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations of Malaysian female adults of child-bearing age after daily intake of vitamin D supplements containing either 0 IU, 600 IU, 1200 IU or 4000 IU vitamin D for 16 weeks.

Read the detailed description

After being informed regarding the study protocol and requirements, participants given informed consent were interviewed using a questionnaire for collection of background data and medical history as a screening process. Eligible participants were randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to receive daily 500 mg of calcium with either 0, 600 IU, 1200 IU or 4000 IU vitamin D supplement for 16 weeks. Questionnaires and anthropometric measurements were collected at baseline and post 16 weeks supplementation trial. Primary outcomes of plasma 25(OH)D and intact PTH were measured via fasting intravenous blood samples at baseline and post 16 weeks trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. Change from baseline plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D at week 16

    5ml of fasting blood sample were taken by venepuncture into heparin tubes. Collected blood samples were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes, extracted plasma and stored at -80˚C until sent for analysis

    Measured: Baseline and week 16

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change from baseline intact parathyroid hormone at week 16

    5ml of fasting blood sample were taken by venepuncture into heparin tubes. Collected blood samples were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes, extracted plasma and stored at -80˚C until sent for analysis

    Measured: Baseline and week 16

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing 600 IU vitamin D + 500 mg calcium, 1200 IU vitamin D + 500 mg calcium and 4000 IU vitamin D + 500 mg calcium in people with Healthy, run by IMU University, Malaysia at 1 site in Malaysia.

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 16 Mar 2022. 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 Malaysia. 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 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 from baseline plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D at week 16 (time frame: Baseline and week 16). 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 16 Mar 2022.
