About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Coenzyme Q10 Supplementation on Metabolic Control in Children With Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: a Randomized Clinical Trial

Determine the effect of Coenzyme Q10 on random blood sugar and glycosylated haemoglobin

Read the detailed description

Type 1 diabetes mellitus is an autoimmune disease that leads to destruction of insulin producing pancreatic Beta cells.

Individuals with type 1 diabetes requires life long insulin replacement with multiple daily insulin injection. daily,insulin pump therapy or the use of an automated insulin delivery system.

without insulin ,diabetic ketoacidosis develops and is life threatening.

In addition to insulin Therapy ,glucose monitoring with a continuous glucose monitor and a blood glucose monitor if continuous glucose monitor is unavailable is recommended .

Coenzyme Q10 supplementation has beneficial effects on glycemic control especially in diabetes , and 100-200 mg per day of Co Q10 could achieve the greatest benefit which could provide a basis for the dietary guidelines of Co Q10 in patients with glycemic disorders .

Co Q10 with a known antiinflammatory and antioxidant has beneficial effects on endothelial function and therefore minimize the microvascular and macrovascular complication in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Administration of Co Q10 for 3 months in type 1 diabetes mellitus in pediatric patients was will tolerated but had no favorable effect on endothelial dysfunction or metabolic parameters .

Co Q10 in addition to improving the metabolic hyperglycemia , it improve Hb A1c and the lipid profile.

patients with type 1 diabetes , especially poorly controlled had elevation of plasma vitamin E and coenzyme Q10 levels and decreased platelet redox status of coenzyme Q10 which may be an indicator of increased oxidative stress ,so Co Q10 has an antioxidant effects.

Researches on this topic are limited on pediatrics and investigators search for it and will see the result.(clinical trial)

Co Q10 is present in the forms of soft gel capsules ,oral spray , hard gel capsules and tablets .

Co Q10 approved from age of 2 years old to 18 years old .

Being tested
Coenzyme Q10 Cap/Tab as natural factors capsules or kirkman tablets
Medical subject headings
Diabetes Mellitus, Type 1

What participants receive

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

  • Coenzyme Q10 Cap/Tab as natural factors capsules or kirkman tabletsDrug

    Also called Natural factors capsules or Kirkman tablets

    Group A will take Soft gel capsules or tablets of Coenzyme Q10 in a dose of 100-200mg of natural factors or kirkman but group B will not take Coenzyme Q10 just observe them

Group BExperimentalWill not take Coenzyme Q10 soft gel capsules or tablets
Receives: Drug: Coenzyme Q10 Cap/Tab as natural factors capsules or kirkman tablets

What is being measured

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

  1. Assess the effect of Coenzyme Q10 on glycated haemoglobin in type 1 diabetes mellitus

    This prospective randomized clinical trial will be conducted on 100 participants . Half of them will not receive treatment but group A will receive 100-200mg of Coenzyme Q10 . the level of glycated hemoglobin, fasting blood glucose will be assessed for both groups at baseline and after 3 months of treatment for ongoing use in diabetic children

    Measured: One year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Control of random blood sugar and glycated haemoglobin in children with type 1 diabetes mellitus .

    By ensuring of regular intake of Coenzyme Q10 capsules or tablets then assessment of glycated hemoglobin

    Measured: One year

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Faisal Alkhateeb Ahmad Abdullah, Professor (01003858676, faisalalkhateeb@aun.edu.eg), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Assess the effect of Coenzyme Q10 on glycated haemoglobin in type 1 diabetes mellitus (time frame: One year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT06361680, which also lists 5 linked publications.

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.
