Acute Effects of Grape Seed Extract on Insulin Sensitivity and Oxidative Stress and Inflammation Markers. (GSE2)

July 26, 2021 updated by: Clinical Nutrition Research Center, Illinois Institute of Technology

Effect of Grape Seed Extract on Modulation of Oxidative Stress/ Inflammation/ Insulin Sensitivity Induced by High Fat-carbohydrate Meal in Healthy Human Subjects

The proposed study aims to investigate that consumption of grape seed extract (GSE) would improve antioxidant status and impaired insulin action following consumption of a pro-oxidative high carbohydrate, high fat (HCHF) meal in healthy human subjects.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study is a single-center, double blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, 2-arm, 2-sequence, crossover study

A planned sample size of 15 will be recruited into the study. This study will require one initial screening, one pre-study visit, two 6-hour study visits. The study will take 2-5 weeks per subject to complete.

The initial screening visit will provide subjects an Institutional Review Board approved consent document and determine subject eligibility through BMI calculated from height and weight measurements, vital signs, fasting blood glucose test (finger prick), lipid profiles (3 ml blood sampling via a butterfly needle device) and completion of a questionnaire related to general eating, health, and exercise habits.

If subjects are willing and eligible to participate, a 3-day food record (2 weekdays and 1 weekend day) will be instructed at the initial screening visit and collected at the pre-study visit to assess subjects' usual dietary intake pattern. After reviewing food records, subjects will be instructed to avoid any grapes, grape products, berries, berry products throughout the study and strictly follow a limited polyphenolic diet for 3 days prior to each 6-hr study visit, while maintaining their usual diet pattern and physical activity. Prior to each study visit, subject will be advised to have the same or similar dinner meal to control the second meal effect from food and beverage intake of the night before each study visit.

Subjects will arrive at the center after ~10 hours overnight fasting, well hydrated and rested. Each study visit will require blood draws throughout the visit. After pre-study procedures (height, weight, waist circumferences, vital sign, and fasting blood glucose test), a registered nurse will place a catheter in subject's arm for the purpose of multiple blood sample collections and collect fasting blood sample. During each study visit, subject will take one of the two capsules right after fasting blood draw), based on randomization sequences (either 1 grape seed extract capsule or 1 placebo capsule). One hour after administration of the assigned capsule, blood samples will be collected. And a standard high carbohydrate and high fat breakfast meal will be served and subject will have blood draws at designated time up to 5 hours.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.
