What participants receive

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

  • Agilent Seahorse XF Cell Mito Stress TestDiagnostic test

    Also called Ketoneaid (Ketone monoester)

    The Agilent Seahorse XF Cell Mito Stress Test measures key parameters of mitochondrial function by directly measuring the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of cells on the Seahorse XFe and XF Extracellular Flux Analyzers. It is a plate-based live cell assay that allows to monitor spare respiratory capacity (SRC), basal respiration, ATP production-coupled respiration, maximal respiration, and non-mitochondrial respiration in real time before and after ketone monoester

What is being measured

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

  1. Spare Respiratory Capacity (SRC)

    This measurement indicates the capability of the cell to respond to an energetic demand as well as how closely the cell is to respiring to its theoretical maximum. The cell's ability to respond to demand can be an indicator of cell fitness or flexibility

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 months

  2. Basal Respiration

    Oxygen consumption used to meet cellular ATP demand resulting from mitochondrial proton leak. Shows energetic demand of the cell under baseline conditions.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 months

  3. ATP production-coupled Respiration

    The decrease in oxygen consumption rate upon injection of the ATP synthase inhibitor oligomycin represents the portion of basal respiration that was being used to drive ATP production. Shows ATP produced by the mitochondria that contributes to meeting the energetic needs of the cell.

    Measured: upon admission

  4. Maximal Respiration

    The maximal oxygen consumption rate attained by adding the uncoupler FCCP. FCCP mimics a physiological "energy demand" by stimulating the respiratory chain to operate at maximum capacity, which causes rapid oxidation of substrates (sugars, fats, and amino acids) to meet this metabolic challenge. Shows the maximum rate of respiration that the cell can achieve.

    Measured: upon admission

  5. Non-Mitochondrial Respiration

    Oxygen consumption that persists due to a subset of cellular enzymes that continue to consume oxygen after the addition of rotenone and antimycin A. This is important to get an accurate measure of mitochondrial respiration.

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Oxygen Consumption Rate (OCR)

    The oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of cells is an important indicator of normal cellular function. It is used as a parameter to study mitochondrial function as well as a marker of factors triggering the switch from healthy oxidative phosphorylation to aerobic glycolysis

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 months

  2. extracellular acidification rate (ECAR)

    Measuring the extracellular acidification rate (ECAR) provides a method for detection of glycolytic flux in T-cells in response to ketone mono ester

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of COVID-19 Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome, run by Duke 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 1 inclusion and 3 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Jun 2024. 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Spare Respiratory Capacity (SRC) (time frame: through study completion, an average of 2 months). The study lists 5 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 3 Jun 2024.
