About this study

Official title: The Effect of Vitamin D3 Therapy on 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D Maternal Serum Levels in Pregnant Women With Vitamin D Deficient and Insufficient

This study is a randomized controlled trial which compares the effect of vitamin D3 therapy 5,000 IU daily and 50,000 IU on 25(OH)D and 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D maternal serum levels in pregnant women with vitamin D deficient and insufficient.

Read the detailed description

This is a randomized controlled trial of vitamin D therapy of 5,000 IU daily or 50,000 IU weekly during pregnancy. The study is conducted at Cipto Mangunkusumo National Center General Hospital and Koja Distict Hospital in Jakarta, Indonesia from April 2021 - December 2023. All the pregnant women are screened for eligibility when they presented to the clinic for antenatal care visits and are offered enrolment if they meet the following inclusion criteria: gestational age of ≤ 14 weeks, vitamin D deficient or insufficient (25(OH)D <30 ng/ml], and positive fetal heart rate from ultrasound examination.

Participants are randomly assigned to one of two parallel intervention groups, with allocation concealment: vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) 5,000 IU/week or 50,000 IU/week. All participants are given a standard prenatal multivitamin. A medical history, physical, and ultrasound examination are performed. Participants complete a questionnaire about sunlight exposure. Interventions in both groups are given for four weeks. Baseline blood tests, including serum 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D are performed at recruitment. After four weeks of interventions, the maternal venous blood is collected to assess serum 25(OH)D, 1,25(OH)2D, VDBP, and 24,25(OH)2D.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2/3 study testing Cholecalciferol in people with Vitamin D Deficiency, run by Universitas Indonesia at 1 site in Indonesia.

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 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Sep 2023. 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 Indonesia. 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.

What does this combined phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

25(OH)D maternal serum level (time frame: 4 weeks after intervention). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT06054919, 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 26 Sep 2023.
