The Kidney's Response to Exercise in Heat, and the Impact of Vitamin B3 on This Response
NCT06983730 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the processes occurring in the kidneys while under heat stress in healthy volunteers. The main questions it aims to answer are: * How do the chemicals produced by the body change under conditions of higher versus lower heat stress? * What role does a specific area of the body's metabolism, known as NAD+ metabolism, play in the body's response to heat stress, and can this response be modified by taking vitamin B3?

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06983730
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06983730 describes a study currently listed as recruiting. It is categorized as Early Phase 1, 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 28 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, which has 434 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 3 conditions, with Healthy Volunteer Study appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Vitamin B3 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: NCT06983730 reports 2 study locations spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Massachusetts. 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.
