Study Summary
This research is studying how a food product (resistant potato starch) which is a dietary supplement made from potato starch affects the gut bacteria of people with cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy. The researchers in this study want to understand how potato starch works in the subject's body and how the body will react to it. Along with taking the study product participants health-related information and stool will be collected for this research study.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06425380
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06425380 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. 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 11 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Mayo Clinic, which has 3,246 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 2 conditions, with Cirrhosis appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Resistant Potato Starch 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: NCT06425380 reports 2 study locations spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Minnesota. 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.
