About this study

Official title: Personalized Pork: Dose-dependent Identification of Unique Biomarkers

The purpose of the research is to assess the dose-dependent impacts of the consumption of fresh pork on blood-borne metabolites (markers) following the controlled feeding of pork

Read the detailed description

Eligible participants will follow 3 randomly ordered 4-week feeding periods varying only with the consumption of 0, 3 or 6 oz of pork or a 50:50 blend of chicken and beef (6, 3 and 0 oz for respective trials to ensure similar total poultry/meat intake among trials).

What participants receive

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

  • Pork ConsumptionDietary supplement

    Feeding of pork is controlled at 0, 3 or 6 oz per day for 4 weeks each in random order.

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

  1. Metabolic biomarker discovery

    Biomolecules detected through metabolomic profiling that will result in discovery of a metabolic signature for pork intake

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Pork Consumption in people with Healthy, run by San Diego State University 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 5 inclusion and 4 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 8 Jan 2025. 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?

Metabolic biomarker discovery (time frame: 4 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 8 Jan 2025.
