About this study

Official title: Effect of Thiamin Supplementation on Thiamin Status in Children With Heart Disease Receiving Diuretic Drugs: Randomized Controlled Trial

The purpose of this study is to determine effect of thiamin supplementation on thiamin status by measuring thiamin pyrophosphate effect in children with heart disease receiving diuretic drugs.

Read the detailed description

Children with heart disease receiving diuretic drugs are susceptible to thiamin deficiency due to increase renal loss. Thiamin deficiency causes abnormal cardiac contraction resulting in heart failure.

Conditions
Heart Diseases
Being tested
Thiamine Mononitrate
Keywords
Diuretic drugs, Thiamin deficiency
Medical subject headings
Heart Diseases, Beriberi

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Thiamine Mononitrate in people with Heart Diseases, run by Mahidol University at 1 site in Thailand.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Jun 2019. 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 Thailand. 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.

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?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Narumon Densupsoontorn, MD (662 4197000 ext. 5947, narumon.den@mahidol.ac.th), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change in thiamin pyrophosphate effect (time frame: 4 weeks). 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 NCT03989700, which also lists 12 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 20 Jun 2019.
