About this study

Official title: Efficacy & Safety of SmofKabiven Peripheral vs Compounded Emulsion: A Randomized, Active-Controlled, Open-Labelled, Multi-Centre Study in Adult Surgical Patients Requiring Parenteral Nutrition

The present protocol describes a randomized, open-labelled study in which either SmofKabiven Peripheral or a hospital compounded control Parenteral Nutrition (PN) regimen will be given to adult surgical patients for 5 consecutive days.

As serum prealbumin is a well-established surrogate efficacy parameter reflecting the patient´s nutritional status, the absolute change of the serum prealbumin level at the day of the final study visit compared to baseline will represent the primary efficacy parameter in the present study.

Read the detailed description

In addition, other variables will be assessed in this study, i.e., C-reactive Protein (CRP), free fatty acids, immunology parameters, taurine, comparison of the time required for Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) preparation of the two groups, the results of physical examination, vital signs, relevant nutrition- and safety-related laboratory parameters in venous blood and urine, the results of an Electrocardiography (ECG), and the number, severity, seriousness, clinical relevance, relatedness and outcome of Adverse Events (AEs). The aim of the planned study is to demonstrate that SmofKabiven Peripheral is not inferior to the comparative drug (compounded emulsion).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing SmofKabiven Peripheral and Hospital compounded emulsion in people with Parenteral Feeding and Surgery, run by Fresenius Kabi at 5 sites in China.

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 26 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 2 Aug 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in China. 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.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

Serum Prealbumin (time frame: 6 days). 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 NCT03792087, which also lists 25 linked publications.

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 Aug 2021.
