Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

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

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study was a 12 week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled human trial. 100 subjects were randomly divided into GTB1 group and placebo group. It is to evaluate the changes in the displayed evaluation items when taking GTB1 once a day, in comparison with taking a placebo.

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.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes of percent body fat(trunk, total ect.)
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Measurement is made using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA)
Baseline, Week 12

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes of fat free mass(trunk, total ect.)
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Measurement of the target area is made using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)
Baseline, Week 12
Changes of total abdominal fat area, visceral fat area and subcutaneous fat area
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Measurement of the target area is made using computed tomography (CT)
Baseline, Week 12
Changes of waist, hip circumference and waist/hip circumference ratio
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Measurement of waist and hip circumference is performed following the WHO guideline
Baseline, Week 12
Changes of indicator of lipid metabolism
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Indicator of lipid metabolism(i.e., Total cholesterol, Triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol)
Baseline, Week 12
Changes of obesity-related hormone index
Time Frame: Baseline, Week 12
Obesity-related hormone indexes(Adiponectin, Leptin etc.). As blood adiponectin levels increase, blood leptin concentrations decrease, indicating a positive change.
Baseline, Week 12
