Effects of Distinct Nebraska-Dry Bean Market Classes on Gut Microbiota
NCT06935435 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
Beans are well known for their health benefits. Many of these benefits relate to gut health, as many of the nutrients found in beans support beneficial microbes that live in the gut. However, beans have a lot of genetic diversity. This diversity has led to different bean market classes with different colors, sizes, and nutrient profiles. Differences between bean market classes may trigger different effects on gut microbes and health, but this is poorly understood. The goal of the pilot clinical trial is to make comparisons (1) between two different bean market classes (pink beans, great northern beans) and (2) between a bean mixture (pinto, kidney, black, pink, and great northern beans) and individual bean market classes. The study will assess whether bean market classes differ in their effects on gut microbes, blood pressure, metabolism, and gut symptoms in adults with and without obesity.

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06935435
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06935435 describes a study currently listed as active not 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 12 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is University of Nebraska Lincoln, which has 10 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 Gut Microbiota appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 3 interventions — of which Pink Beans 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: NCT06935435 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Nebraska. 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.
