About this study

Official title: Acute Metabolic Effect of the Protein Quality of a High-protein Meal Replacement in Healthy Men

The purpose of the clinical study is to investigate the effect of the protein quality of high-protein meal replacements on the management of post-prandial blood glucose in healthy men.

Read the detailed description

It was a double-blind, single center, randomized, crossover adaptive study design with 7 arms.

The subjects were submitted to 7 tests of ingestion of a high-protein meal replacement (test meal) in randomized order preferably a week apart. The 7 test meals were isocaloric, isonitrogenous and differed in their protein quality.

Being tested

What is being measured

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

  1. Post-prandial Plasma Responses of Glucose Concentrations

    The concentrations of glucose were analyzed in the 10 plasma samples collected over 3 h postprandially in all subjects (Baseline, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min after product intake). The Area-Under-the-Curves (AUC) over 180 minutes from baseline were calculated by trapezoidal interpolation by excluding the area under baseline.

    Measured: 180 minutes

  2. Calculation of the Area Under Curve Over Baseline for Plasma Insulin

    The concentrations of insulin were analyzed in the 10 plasma samples collected over 3 h postprandially in all subjects (Baseline, 10, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 min after product intake). The Area-Under-the-Curves (AUC) over 180 minutes from baseline were calculated by trapezoidal interpolation by excluding the area under baseline.

    Measured: 180 minutes from baseline

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Post-prandial Plasma Responses of Glucagon, C-peptide, Amino Acids and Lipids

    Measured: 180 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Whey protein native, Whey protein microgels and Hydrolyzed whey protein in people with Healthy, run by Société des Produits Nestlé (SPN) at 1 site in Switzerland.

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 8 inclusion and 10 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 14 Aug 2013. 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 Switzerland. 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.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 14 Aug 2013). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Post-prandial Plasma Responses of Glucose Concentrations (time frame: 180 minutes). The study lists 2 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 14 Aug 2013.
