About this study

The aim of the study is to compare in a clinical condition the effect of standardized chokeberry extract in different formulations and a complex preparation containing chokeberry extract and other active ingredients in on the levels of selected markers associated with cardiovascular diseases in people with a predisposition to the development of these diseases.

Read the detailed description

Randomized, double-blind, parallel study conducted under medical supervision on a group of 40 patients with known hypertension and/or hypercholesterolemia. Patients receive one of the investigational products or placebo for 6 weeks. Before and after the study, the following parameters are analyzed: extended lipid panel (total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), HDL and lipoprotein A, apolipoprotein Apo A1 and Apo B), levels of glucose, insulin, homocysteine, markers of kidney and liver function (alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), blood urea nitrogen (BUN), uric acid). Effects on blood pressure and anthropometric parameters are also being evaluated.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Complex product, Chokeberry extract in liposomal formulation and Chokeberry extract in traditional formulation in people with Hypertension and Hypercholesterolemia, run by AronPharma Sp. z o. o. at 1 site in Poland.

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 8 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 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 Poland. 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?

Extended lipid panel (total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), HDL and lipoprotein A, apolipoprotein Apo A1 and Apo B) (time frame: baseline, 6 weeks). 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.
