A Comparison of Satiety Effects Two Commercially Available Snack Bars
NCT07227701 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The researchers are investigating the satiety effects of two commercially available snack bars. Qualified participants are age 18-65 with a body mass index of 18.5 to 29.9 kilograms of body weight per meter squared in height who are in good metabolic health. Participants will engage in two study visits conducted at the Indiana University--Bloomington Innovation Center. Study visits are separated by a 1-14 day washout period. Prior to each study visit, participants are asked to engage in normal activity and to refrain from strenuous exercise. Furthermore, subjects are asked to consume a typical diet the day prior to the study visit with one caveat; they are to consume standard frozen dinners (evening meal) of their choosing between 7-8 PM and to remain fasted afterward except for water and non-caloric beverages until the study visit the following day. The amount of food provided for the evening meal is estimated using a standard calorie calculator based on the Mifflin-St. Jeor equation and an estimate of their activity level. Subjects are instructed to consume only as much of the provided food as needed to become comfortably full as they would ordinarily. Subjects record their diet for the day. Upon arrival at the Innovation Center between 8-8:40 AM, compliance with the prior day protocol is verified through interview, and the diet record is reviewed. Participants consume 300 kcal of snack bars and complete visual analogue scales to assess hunger, fullness, desire to eat, and satisfaction at fasting and at 30 minute intervals from the fasting measurement for 2 hours. Immediately after consuming the snack bars, subjects complete a sensory evaluation of the snack bars. Fifteen to thirty minutes after completion of the final visual analogue scale, subjects will be presented with an individual buffet which they consume ad libitum until comfortably full. A second study visit that mirrors the first but with different bars is conducted after the washout period (1-14 days

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT07227701
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT07227701 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 150 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Indiana University, which has 1,026 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 Satiety appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 2 interventions — of which High carbohydrate snack bar 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: NCT07227701 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Indiana. 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.
