About this study

This is a pilot study to determine the association between Vitamin D deficiency in obese children and low high density lipoprotein (HDL) and dysfunctional HDL.

Read the detailed description

Subjects will be identified through the Department of Pediatric - High Body Mass Index (BMI) Clinic by Dr. Aurelia Radulescu during standard of care visit. Dr. Radulescu will determine if the subject meets study eligibility requirements.

Visit 1 (Baseline/Screening): Consent/assent will be obtained, medical history, demographic information along with height and weight will be collection. Clinical Laboratory testing, although not part of this study, will include the following standard of care tests. The results of Vitamin D and Lipid profile testing will be shared with Dr. Li by Dr. Radulescu.

  • Lipid profile
  • Vitamin D
  • AST/ALT
  • Hb A1C
  • Glucose
  • CBS w/diff
  • TSH
  • BUN, Creatine
  • UA

Subjects will be placed on standard of care Vitamin D supplementation for 12 weeks.

Visit 2 (3 month visit) End of Study: Subjects will return to the BMI clinic at month 3 for follow-up and additional clinical laboratory testing (see visit 1 for a description of testing to be performed) in order to assess their response to Vitamin D supplementation. Subjects with previously reported abnormal Lipid values will have a Lipid profile repeated at this visit. Month 3 visit will be the End of Study visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Laboratory Analysis of Vitamin D blood levels before Vitamin D Supplementation

    Vitamin D deficiency in obese child leads to low HDL and dysfunctional HDL

    Measured: up to 24 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Laboratory Analysis of Vitamin D Blood Levels following Vitamin D Supplementation

    Supplementation of Vitamin D to obese children with low Vitamin D/low HDL corrects Vitamin D deficiency, restores HDL levels and functions.

    Measured: up to 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Vitamin D in people with Obese and Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Xiang-An Li at 1 site in United States.

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 3 inclusion and 5 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?

Where is the study taking place?

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?

Laboratory Analysis of Vitamin D blood levels before Vitamin D Supplementation (time frame: up to 24 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 2 May 2017.
