ATENEA Study: Adherence to Creatine-Based Nutritional Supplementation in Estrogen-Depleted Women (ATENEA)

5 maggio 2026 aggiornato da: Margan Biotech

AssessmenT of thE Adherence of Nutritional Supplementation With Creatine Formula in Estrogen-Depleted Adult Women: Prospective Clinical Investigation

This is a prospective, multicenter, observational clinical study conducted under routine clinical practice conditions aimed at describing adherence to a creatine-based nutritional supplement (Creaticare FEM) in estrogen-depleted adult women. Participants will receive the supplement for 12 weeks, and adherence will be assessed as the percentage of doses consumed and the proportion of participants achieving ≥80% adherence. Secondary outcomes include persistence, satisfaction, tolerability, and adherence to recommended physical activity. Exploratory outcomes include changes in muscle strength, body composition, quality of life, joint pain, and skin health.

Descrizione dettagliata

This is a prospective, multicenter, observational clinical study aimed at evaluating adherence to a creatine-based nutritional supplementation (Creaticare FEM) in estrogen-depleted adult women, including those in menopause or late perimenopause.

Creaticare FEM is a multi-ingredient dietary supplement formulated to support musculoskeletal, metabolic, and skin health in this population. The daily dose (10 g) contains creatine monohydrate (3 g), hydrolyzed collagen (5 g), hyaluronic acid (95 mg), beta-alanine (300 mg), magnesium (200 mg), and vitamins A, C, E, and B6.

Participants will receive the nutritional supplement for a period of 12 weeks, without any modification of standard clinical practice. The primary objective is to describe adherence to supplementation, defined as the percentage of prescribed doses consumed during the study period and the proportion of participants achieving high adherence (≥80%) at the end of follow-up.

Secondary objectives include the assessment of persistence with supplementation, participant-reported acceptability and satisfaction, tolerability through the monitoring of adverse events, and adherence to a general recommendation of physical activity provided as part of routine care.

In addition, exploratory analyses will be performed to describe pre-post changes over the 12-week period in selected clinical variables, including muscle strength (handgrip dynamometry), body composition (bioimpedance), quality of life (Cervantes questionnaire), joint pain (visual analog scale), and skin health perception (cosmetic VAS). These exploratory outcomes are descriptive in nature and intended to generate hypotheses for future controlled studies.

The study does not involve randomization, control group, or experimental intervention beyond routine supplementation, and therefore is not intended to establish causal relationships or confirm clinical efficacy, but rather to provide real-world evidence on adherence, acceptability, and tolerability of a multimodal nutritional supplement in this population.

Coorti e interventi

Gruppo / Coorte
Creatine-based nutritional supplement

Single prospective cohort of estrogen-depleted adult women (menopause or late perimenopause) receiving a creatine-based nutritional supplement for 12 weeks under routine clinical practice conditions.

Participants take a daily dose of the supplement (10 g), which contains creatine monohydrate, hydrolyzed collagen, hyaluronic acid, beta-alanine, magnesium, and vitamins A, C, E, and B6.

In addition, participants receive general recommendations for physical activity (including strength and aerobic exercise) consistent with standard clinical advice, without supervised training or structured intervention.

The study does not include randomization, control group, or experimental assignment, as it aims to evaluate adherence, acceptability, and tolerability of nutritional supplementation in a real-world setting.
