What is being measured

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

  1. Glucose Levels

    Blood will be obtained to measure glucose after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.

    Measured: Baseline and 8 weeks

  2. Insulin Level

    Blood will be obtained to measure insulin level after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.

    Measured: Baseline and 8 weeks

  3. C-Peptide Level

    Blood will be obtained to measure c-peptide level after a glucose tolerance test. The glucose tolerance test involves an overnight fast and then participants will ingest a drink containing 75 grams of glucose with blood obtained over a 120 minute period.

    Measured: Baseline and 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. PROMIS 10 Questionnaire

    Brief 10 question multiple choice survey

    Measured: 8 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Calcitriol capsules in people with Pre-Diabetic, run by Mayo Clinic 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 2 inclusion and 20 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Apr 2022. 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 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. 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 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 18 Apr 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Glucose Levels (time frame: Baseline and 8 weeks). The study lists 3 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 18 Apr 2022.
