About this study

Official title: Glycomacropeptide as a Protein Supplement to Curb Hunger

This is a study about how a dietary supplement containing a whey protein affects hormones controlling hunger and satiety (leptin and ghrelin) in postmenopausal women with a body mass index between 28 and 35 kg/m2. Participants can expect to be in study for 4 weeks.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this research study is to understand how a dietary supplement containing glycomacropeptide (GMP) affects blood sugar levels and hormones that regulate hunger and satiety. This study is being conducted to find new ways to help women lose weight and reduce their chance of getting diabetes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • glycomacropeptide (GMP)Dietary supplement

    For each of the two baseline visits, women will consume a 300 calorie liquid breakfast meal tolerance test (MTT), eat a standard test lunch ad libitum with recording of food intake, and will then begin the low-dose GMP (25 g BID with meals) or high-dose GMP (25 g TID with meals) for 7 days. On day 7 of each GMP diet, women will come to the Clinical Research Unit (CRU) for a second breakfast MTT followed by lunch. All subjects will stop GMP products for 5-7 days (washout).

Study groups in NCT05551091
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
GMP 25 mg BIDExperimentalInvestigators will conduct a pilot cross-over study in which 13 obese participants undergo measures of study outcomes: satiety hormones, glucose, amino acid and cytokine levels and changes in the fecal microbiota at baseline and after 7 days of consuming the supplement. On day one participants will consume a liquid soy breakfast, undergo study measures and then initiate GMP supplements twice a day (BID) x 7 days, with repeat study measures on day 7 of consuming the GMP supplement.
Receives: Dietary Supplement: glycomacropeptide (GMP)
GMP 25 mg TIDExperimentalAfter a washout period, the same 13 participants will undergo repeated measures of study outcomes (satiety hormones, glucose, amino acid and cytokine levels and changes in the fecal microbiota). On day one subjects will consume a liquid soy breakfast, undergo study measures and then initiate GMP supplements thrice a day (TID) x 7 days, with repeat study measures on day 7 of consuming the GMP supplement.
Receives: Dietary Supplement: glycomacropeptide (GMP)

What is being measured

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

  1. Glucose homeostasis

    Difference in glucose area under the curve after a soy versus a GMP liquid breakfast

    Measured: glucose levels 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes postprandial

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Ghrelin, a hormone regulating hunger and satiety

    Difference in ghrelin area under the curve after a soy versus a GMP liquid breakfast

    Measured: ghrelin levels 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes postprandial

Model description
Participants underwent measures of study outcomes at 4 time points: day 1 and day 7 of consuming GMP supplements twice daily (low-dose, 25 g before breakfast and dinner) and day 1 and day 7 of consuming GMP supplements thrice daily (high-dose, 25 g before breakfast, lunch and dinner). For each of the two baseline visits (day 1), participants consumed 300 kcal liquid breakfast meal tolerance test containing soy protein isolate, and then began the low-dose GMP or high-dose GMP for 7 days. On day 7 of each GMP diet, participants returned for a second GMP-based 300 kcal liquid breakfast meal tolerance test. Between the 2 weeks of GMP consumption, participants had a minimum washout period of 5 days.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing glycomacropeptide (GMP) in people with Obesity, run by University of Wisconsin, Madison 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 1 inclusion and 1 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 3 Oct 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. 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?

Glucose homeostasis (time frame: glucose levels 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120 and 150 minutes postprandial). 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 NCT05551091, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 3 Oct 2022.
