About this study
Official title: Effets Aigus d'Une supplémentation en polyphénols (Vinitrox™) Contre Placebo Sur la Fonction endothéliale et la Performance Lors d'un Exercice à intensité modérée en Hypoxie Chez Des Volontaires Sains Physiquement Actifs.
To evaluate the effect of acute polyphenols supplementation on vasodilation and related markers along with exercise related markers (notably performance, respiratory exchanges, perceived exertion), before, during and after a hypoxic moderate-intensity exercise in healthy recreative volunteers.
Read the detailed description
Exercise session is an ergometer cycling workout performed under hypoxia condition equivalent to 3000 meters of altitude. Exercise session is composed of a warmup period followed by 20 minutes of cycling starting at 60% of individual maximal aerobic power.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Oral administration in people with Vasodilation and Exercise, run by Nexira at 1 site in France.
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 4 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: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Apr 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 France. 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?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
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?
Flow mediated dilation (FMD ; %) (time frame: Before the exercise session (at rest under normoxia and hypoxia conditions)). 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 13 Apr 2026.
