About this study
Official title: Effect of Nelutri™ on Musculoskeletal Biomarkers in Relative Sarcopenia Adults: a Randomized, Double-blinded, Placebo-controlled Trial
The investigators conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the effects of Nelutri™on muscle strength, muscle mass, and muscle function in healthy adults for 12 weeks.
Read the detailed description
A previous study has indicated that Nelutri™ may increase muscle mass and strength. Therefore, the investigators conduct a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to investigate the effects of Nelutri™on muscle strength, muscle mass, and muscle function in healthy adults; the safety of the compound are also evaluate. The Investigators examine the peak torque/body weight at 60°/s knee extension, handgrip strength, skeletal muscle mass, physical performance, and metabolic parameters at baseline, as well as after 6 and 12 weeks of intervention. Eighty adults were administered either 2,000 mg of Nelutri™ or a placebo each day for 12 weeks;

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Nelutri™ in people with Muscular Sarcoidosis, run by Pusan National University Yangsan Hospital at 1 site in South Korea.
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 9 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 28 Apr 2021. 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 South Korea. 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?
muscle strength (time frame: 12 weeks). 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 28 Apr 2021.
