About this study

Official title: Effect of Daily Lactococcus Cremoris Spp. Consumption Immobilized in Oat Flakes on Blood and Urine Biomarkers and Human Microbiome: a Randomized Placebo-controlled Clinical Trial

The purpose of this clinical trial was to evaluate the effects Lactococcus cremoris spp. im-mobilized on oat flakes on human microbiome and blood and urine biomarkers of associated with human health.

Read the detailed description

All eligible and consenting individuals were assigned a unique code for identification purposes. They were then randomly assigned to either the probiotic or placebo group. The probiotic group received oat flakes containing immobilized Lactococcus cremoris, while the placebo group received oat flakes indistinguishable in color, smell, and taste from the flakes with immobilized probiotics.Participants received written instructions on storing the product, which required refrigeration. They were instructed to consume 5 g of oats daily with a meal, ensuring the meal's temperature remained below 35 °C and was non-acidic (e.g., with yogurt). Biological samples were collected at three time points; before intervention, at 6th and 12th week.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Probiotic oat flakes and Conventional oat flakes in people with Healthy, run by University of the Aegean at 1 site in Greece.

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

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Greece. 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?

Inflammatory biomarkers (time frame: Blood samples were collected by venipuncture at three time points; before intervention, at 6th and 12th week). 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 5 Mar 2024.
