Who may be able to join

  • 40-85 years old, middle-aged and elderly subjects with possible sarcopenia or sarcopenia. According to AWGS 2019, possible sarcopenia is defined as (1) handgrip strength < 28 kg in men and < 18 kg in women or (2) 5-time chair stand test ≥ 12 seconds; sarcopenia is defined as meet (1) or (2) plus appendicular skeletal muscle mass index (ASMI) < 7.0 kg/m2 in men and < 5.7 kg/m2 in women.

About this study

HINEX Jelly is a jelly high protein supplement. This report is to investigate whether jelly high protein supplement can achieve greater muscle mass, muscle strength, physical performance and nutritional status in sarcopenia or possible sarcopenia subjects. It is 20 weeks randomized, crossover, self-controlled trials. The screening, recruitment and trial period were carried out from Feb, 2022 to Mar, 2023. Patients were randomized to either a self-controlled phase,which intake 400~500 kcal breakfast, or a supplement phase consume one servings of jelly high protein supplement (303 kcal, 15 g protein and 2400 mg BCAA per serving) and 100~200 kcal food at breakfast per day, for 8 weeks. After a 4-week washout they cross over to the alternate treatment. The anthropometric measurements, sarcopenia parameters, nutritional assessment and hematology assessment data were measured at the week 0,8,12,20 and 24-hour dietary record were recorded at week 1,8,13,20.

Read the detailed description

Parameters of sarcopenia, including the muscle mass assessment, handgrip strength and physical performance assessment.Muscle mass and body composition were measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). A hand dynamometer was used to measure handgrip strength. Physical performance was measured by short physical performance battery (SPPB), 6-meter gait speed and 5-time chair stand test. Mini nutritional assessment (MNA) used to measure nutritional status. The hematology assessment including total protein, albumin, pre-albumin, transferrin, c-reactive protein (CRP), vitamin D, calcium, glucose, insulin, homeostasis model assessment-estimated insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, creatinine, creatine-kinase, alkaline phosphatase, glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT), glutamic pyruvic transaminase (GPT) and complete blood count.

What is being measured

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

  1. muscle mass

    the change of muscle mass and measured via bioelectrical impedance analysis(BIA)

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

  2. hand grip strength

    the change of hand grip strength as the marker of muscle strength.Measured via hand grip dynamometry.

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

  3. 5-time chair stand test

    the change of 5-time chair stand test as the marker of physical performance.

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. short physical performance battery

    the change of short physical performance battery as the marker of physical performance.

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

  2. 6-meter gait speed

    the change of 6-meter gait speed as the marker of physical performance.

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

  3. Mini nutritional assessment

    the change of 6-meter gait speed as the marker of nutritional status.

    Measured: week 0,8,12,20

Model description
The experiment lasted for 20 weeks, including 8 weeks self-controlled phase, 8 weeks supplement phase and 4 weeks washout period. In self-controlled phase would intake 400\~500 kcal breakfast and in supplement phase consume one servings of jelly high protein supplement with 100\~200 kcal food at breakfast. Subjects were randomly divided into "first intervention group" and "post intervention group". The first intervention group used HINEX Jelly as daily breakfast during the first to 8th weeks of the experiment, the 9th to 12th week is the wash out period, the 13th to the 20th week is the selfcontrol period; the post-intervention group is in the first to the 8th week of self-control period,the 9th to 12th week is the wash out period, and the 13th to the 20th week is used HINEX Jelly as daily breakfast, as well as maintained their regular diet and medication, but do exercise lifestyle modification during 20-week experimental period.

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?

muscle mass (time frame: week 0,8,12,20). The study lists 3 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 3 Jul 2023.
