About this study

The objectives of this study are the following: 1) to confirm that the administration of grape juice, resveratrol, and grape seed polyphenol extract results in a similar plasma and urinary metabolic profile in aged humans compared to rats, 2) to confirm that a combined administration of grape juice, resveratrol, and grape seed polyphenol extract result in a similar plasma and urinary metabolic profile in adults with tendencies toward metabolic syndrome compared to non-obese healthy humans, and 3) to identify the anti-inflammatory effects of the combined administration of grape juice, resveratrol, and grape seed polyphenol extract.

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

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?

Plasma polyphenols (time frame: 6 hours). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01751750, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 25 May 2017.
