Trial summary

The investigators hypothesized that consuming isolated yellow pea fibre or protein, alone to together, as part of a high-carbohydrate pasta meal, would reduce the blood glucose response to the meal compared to a meal without yellow pea components and reduce food intake at a meal served 2 hours later.

What is being measured

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

  1. Ad libitum food intake at second pizza meal

    Food intake measured via electronic scale in g, then converted to kcal using the caloric density.

    Measured: 135 mins after completion of treatment, 20 mins to eat pizza meal.

  2. Blood glucose

    Blood glucose measured via hand-held glucometer and finger prick.

    Measured: between 0 and 215 mins, every 15-30 mins

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Subjective appetite

    Measured via Visual Analog Scales (VAS)

    Measured: 0 to 215 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Obesity and Diabetes, run by University of Toronto at 2 sites in Canada.

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 6 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 19 Dec 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Canada. 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?

Ad libitum food intake at second pizza meal (time frame: 135 mins after completion of treatment, 20 mins to eat pizza meal.). 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 19 Dec 2013.
