Hydrolyzed Casein and Whey Protein Supplementation and the Addition of Leucine to Induce Protein Anabolism in Malnourished COPD Patients

NCT01154400 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗

Study Summary

The aim of this study is the first aim of a NIH project that consists of 3 aims. The first aim examines the acute effects of two high-quality milk proteins (casein vs. whey) on whole-body and muscle protein metabolism in COPD patients with severe loss of muscle mass and the effects of adding leucine. The principal endpoints will be the extent of stimulation of net whole body protein synthesis as this is the principal mechanism by which either amino acid or protein intake causes muscle anabolism. After determining the optimal nutritional formulation based on the first aim we will continue to work on the second and third aim where fish oil supplementation will be part of the nutritional intervention as well.

What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT01154400

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT01154400 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 12 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Texas A&M University, which has 66 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.

The record links to 1 condition, with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 4 interventions — of which Casein protein hydrolysates is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.

Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT01154400 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Arkansas. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll. Verify current status, eligibility criteria, and contact details directly at ClinicalTrials.gov, and discuss any participation decision with your own healthcare provider.
