About this study

Official title: Einfluss Des Süßmodulierenden Polyphenols Hesperetin in Kombination Mit Saccharose Auf Die Blutglukose-Regulierung Und Energieaufnahme in Abhängigkeit Der Süßwahrnehmung Teil 2

The aim of this cross-over intervention study is to investigate the influence of hesperetin applied in combination with sucrose in comparison to an equally sweet-tasting sucrose-only solution and an isocaloric sucrose-only solution on markers of energy metabolism

Read the detailed description

The study is designed as a randomised cross-over intervention study with three arms. The aim is to investigate the influence of a 10% sucrose solution, corresponding to the sugar content of a conventional soft drink, compared to an equally sweet-tasting 7% sucrose solution in combination with 50 mg/L of the polyphenol hesperetin, and a less sweet 7% sucrose solution w/o hesperetin on time-dependent blood glucose fluctuations and ad libitum energy intake in metabolically healthy male volunteers.

To investigate the underlying mechanisms, the individual appetite score, metabolic and hormonal responses to the interventions and will be measured. In addition, the participants' individual thresholds for sweet taste, preference and consumption for sweet-tasting foods such as sugar and sweeteners, and their body composition will be recorded as potential influencing factors.

Being tested
10% Sucrose, Sucrose+ Hesperetin, 7% Sucrose

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 10% SucroseOther

    Also called table sugar

    10% sucrose corresponding to a regular soft drink

  • Sucrose+ HesperetinDrug

    Also called (2S)-3',5,7-Trihydroxy-4'-methoxyflavan-4-one, CAS number 520-33-2

    Addition of hesperetin increases sweetness of 7% sucrose solution to match sweetness of 10% sucrose solution

  • 7% SucroseOther

    Also called table sugar

    7% sucrose to match the caloric content of the sugar-reduced hesperetin intervention

What is being measured

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

  1. Change in blood glucose concentration

    Change compared to baseline in blood glucose concentration [mg/dL] in plasma samples after drinking the test solution

    Measured: 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after drinking the test solution

  2. Change in appetite score

    Change compared to baseline in the subjective rating of the individual feeling of hunger, fullness, as well as appetite for a snack or for something sweet on a unstructured, digital visual analog scale ranging from 0-10 cm in comparison to baseline

    Measured: Difference between before and 120 minutes after drinking of the test solution

  3. Change in food intake

    Ad libitum food intake from a standardized breakfast

    Measured: 120 minutes after drinking of the test solution

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Change in regulating hormones

    Change compared to baseline in Insulin, Glucagon-like peptide 1, Gastric inhibitory polypeptide, and Polypetide Y concentrations [mmol/L] in plasma samples after drinking the test solution

    Measured: 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after drinking the test solution

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing 10% Sucrose, Sucrose+ Hesperetin and 7% Sucrose in people with Blood Glucose Fluctuations and Hunger, 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 3 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 25 Nov 2024. 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. 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 in blood glucose concentration (time frame: 15, 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after drinking the test solution). 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 25 Nov 2024.
