Caffeine, CYPA12 and Resistance Training
A study testing Caffeine and Resistance training in people with CYP1A2 Polymorphism and Caffeine and Resistance Training, run by University of Alcala at 1 site in Spain.
Trial summary
Introduction: Several studies have evaluated and confirmed the ergogenic effect of acute caffeine intake on sports performance, specifically on strength and power performance. However, it remains to be elucidated how CYP1A2 polymorphism influences the prolonged effects of caffeine on this type of exercise. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Influence of CYP1A2 on the Prolonged Effect of Caffeine Intake on Resistance Training
Introduction: Several studies have evaluated and confirmed the ergogenic effect of acute caffeine intake on sports performance, specifically on strength and power performance. However, it remains to be elucidated how CYP1A2 polymorphism influences the prolonged effects of caffeine on this type of exercise.
Objectives: The present study aims to analyze the prolonged effects of caffeine intake on neuromuscular adaptations to resistance training according to CYP1A2 polymorphism in men and women.
- Being tested
- Caffeine and Resistance training, Placebo and Resistance training

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Caffeine and Resistance training in people with CYP1A2 Polymorphism and Caffeine and Resistance Training, run by University of Alcala at 1 site in Spain.
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 5 inclusion and 7 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 6 May 2026. 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 Spain. 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?
Mean velocity at different %1RM (time frame: Through study completion, an average of 12 weeks). The study lists 9 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 6 May 2026.
