About this study

Official title: Effects of Resveratrol on Insulin Sensitivity, Brown Adipose Tissue and Metabolic Profile in First-degree Relatives of Type 2 Diabetic Patients

The main objective of the study is to investigate if resveratrol supplementation can improve overall and muscle-specific insulin sensitivity in first-degree relatives of type 2 diabetic patients.

As a secondary objective the investigators want to investigate whether the improved insulin sensitivity can be attributed to improved muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity and a reduced intrahepatic and cardiac lipid content. Furthermore, in a subset of the participants the investigators want to investigate the effect of resveratrol on glucose uptake in brown adipose tissue.

What participants receive

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

  • placeboDietary supplement

    A placebo will given for 30 days or 34 days (if included in brown adipose tissue measurement), twice daily. One pill will be provided with lunch, and the other pill will be provided with dinner.

  • resveratrolDietary supplement

    Also called resVida (99% pure trans-resveratrol)

    resveratrol will be given for 30 days or 34 days (if included in brown adipose tissue measurement), twice daily. One pill, which contains 75 mg of resveratrol, will be provided with lunch, and the other pill, also containing 75 mg will be given with dinner. So in total a dose of 150 mg/day will be given.

What is being measured

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

  1. insulin sensitivity: overall, muscle- and liver specific

    Hyperinsulinemic euglycemic clamp combined with indirect calorimetry: Glucose infusion rate (GIR), rate of appearance and disappearance of glucose (Ra, Rd), endogenous glucose production (EGP), oxidative and non-oxidative glucose disposal, carbohydrate and lipid oxidation, energy expenditure.

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. muscle mitochondrial oxidative capacity (in vivo and ex vivo)

    In vivo: Phosphocreatine levels will be measured by P-MRS (before, during, and after exercise) as a marker for in vivo mitochondrial function in the vastus lateralis muscle.

    Ex vivo mitochondrial function in skeletal muscle will be measured by oxygen consumption in muscle fibres (muscle biopsy) on lipid-derived and carbohydrate-derived substrates.

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

  2. intramyocellular lipid content

    Skeletal muscle lipid accumulation measured by immunohistochemistry in muscle biopsy from vastus lateralis muscle

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

  3. intrahepatic lipid content

    Intrahepatic lipid content measured with H-MRS

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

  4. intracardiac lipid content

    Intracardiac lipid content measured with H-MRS

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

  5. heart function

    Cardiac function: diastolic and systolic heart function will be measured with ultrasound

    Measured: 30 days after supplementation

  6. brown adipose tissue activity

    subjects will be exposed to an individualized cooling protocol, after which an 18F-FDG PET/CT scan is made

    Measured: 34 days after supplementation

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing resveratrol in people with Pre-diabetes, run by Maastricht University Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 11 inclusion and 19 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 8 Aug 2017. 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 Netherlands. 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?

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?

insulin sensitivity: overall, muscle- and liver specific (time frame: 30 days after supplementation). 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 NCT02129595, 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 8 Aug 2017.
