About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of a Specific Enteral Diet for Diabetics.A Randomised Cross-Over Study

The hypothesis of the proposed trials is that the regular intake of a specific diet designed for enteral nutrition of type 2 diabetic patients results into a better nutritional status. Thus, the aim of the study is to scientifically evaluate the healthy effects of the administration of an enteral complete diet for diabetic patients (T-Diet plus Diabet).

Read the detailed description

This new complete diet has been carefully formulated, and incorporates functional ingredients based on:

  1. A good gastrointestinal and metabolic tolerance of the product.
  2. Beneficial outcomes in the nutritional status.
  3. A good control of the glycaemic response and the lipidic profile, allowing an improvement of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance indicators and hunger-satiety regulation.

The experimental enteral product is a complete diet that includes, as carbohydrates, high-molecular maltodextrin, resistant maltodextrin, fructooligosaccharides and cellulose, and does not contain added fructose. Indeed, this product contains eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA).

What participants receive

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

  • T-Diet plus StandardDietary supplement

    Also called PLUS STD

    T-Diet plus Standard is a complete balanced protein and energy oral nutrition supplement, indicated for the dietary management of patients with related malnutrition.

  • T-Diet plus Diabet NPDietary supplement

    Also called DIABET NP

    T-Diet plus Diabet NP is a complete balanced oral nutrition supplement, indicated for the dietary management of diabetic patients or hyperglycemia related malnutrition.

  • GlucernaDietary supplement

    Also called GLCR

    GLUCERNA 1.0 CAL is a reduced-carbohydrate, modified-fat, fiber-containing formula clinically shown to blunt blood-glucose response in patients with abnormal glucose tolerance.

  • NovasourceDietary supplement

    Also called NVS

    Complete high protein diet for diabetic patients and hyperglycemic

Study groups in NCT01247714
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Group 1Active comparatorThe group 1 will receive the experimental product T-Diet plus Diabet NP for the first month followed by a reference diet corresponding to a current marketed product (Glucerna SR, Abbott) for the second month, then the patients will receive a control product non specific for diabetic patients (T-Diet plus Standard)for the third month, and finally a specific diet for diabetic patients (Novasource, Nestlé Healthcare Nutrition)for the fourth month.

What is being measured

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

  1. Nutritional status and Glycaemia

    • Evaluation of the nutritional status of diabetic patients fed the T-Diet Plus Diabet NP in comparison with the reference and the control diet.
    • Evaluation of glycaemia and glycosylated hemoglobin

    Measured: 9 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Biochemicals parameters measure

    • Confirmation of gastrointestinal tolerance of the product
    • To assess changes in glycaemic response and lipidic profile in theses patients in relation with the diet, including parameters characteristic of metabolic syndrome, insulin resistace and hunger-satiety mechanism.
    • To analyse changes of incretins and gastrointestinal peptides levels.
    • To compare inflammatory and endothelial damage markers related with cardiovascular morbidity.
    • Genotyping and gene expression analysis of genes related with diabetes and insulin resistance

    Measured: 9 months

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. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Nutritional status and Glycaemia (time frame: 9 months). 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 10 Dec 2014.
