NCT ID NCT07231783

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests whether a dietary supplement called Mitopure® (containing urolithin A) can improve muscle strength in healthy middle-aged adults aged 40 to 65 who are not very active. Over 6 months, 120 participants will take either a low or high dose of the supplement or a placebo. The main goal is to see if the supplement increases knee strength compared to the placebo.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Urolithin A (Mitopure®) dietary supplement
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a simple supplement to help maintain muscle strength during aging.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage trial in healthy people, so results may not apply to everyone. The supplement may not improve strength more than a placebo.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: * 1\. Be able to give written informed consent. * 2\. Be between 40 to 65 years of age, inclusive. * 3\. Has a BMI between 25.0 and 34.9 kg/m2. * 4\. Low physical activity levels as assessed by the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). * 5\. Participants with low VO2 peak (defined as \<35 mL/kg/min via the ergometer prior to baseline). * 6\. Willing to avoid exercising 48-h prior to study visits and maintain low physical activity status for the duration of the study. * 7\. Willing to avoid caffeine and other stimulants (e.g., energy drinks) 12-h before exercise as per study guidelines. * 8\. Willing to consume the Study Product daily for the duration of the study. Exclusion Criteria: * 1\. Participants who are pregnant or wish to become pregnant during the study or who are lactating and/or currently breastfeeding. * 2\. Participants currently of biological childbearing potential, but not using a continuous effective method of contraception, as outlined below: * a. Complete abstinence from intercourse two weeks prior to administration of the Study Product, throughout the clinical study, until the completion of follow-up procedures or for two weeks following discontinuation of the Study Product in cases where Participant discontinues the study prematurely. (Participants utilising this method must agree to use an alternate method of contraception if they should become sexually active and will be queried on whether they have been abstinent in the preceding two weeks when they present to the clinic for the final visit). * b. Has a male sexual partner who is surgically sterilised prior to the Screening Visit and is the only male sexual partner for that Participant. * c. Sexual partner(s) is/are exclusively female. * d. Use of acceptable method of contraception, such as a spermicide, mechanical barrier (e.g., male condom, female diaphragm), tubal ligation, or contraceptive pill. The Participant must be using this method for at least one week prior to and one week following the end of the study. * e. Use of any intrauterine device (IUD) or contraceptive implant. The Participant must have the device inserted at least two weeks prior to the first screening visit, throughout the study, and two weeks following the end of the study. * 3\. Participants with history of drug and/or alcohol abuse at the time of enrolment. (Drinks more than nationally recommended units per week (\>11 units for women; \>17 units for men); alcohol/substance abuse disorder). * 4\.

Participants who are unable to swallow capsules. * 7\. Is hypersensitive to or has dietary restrictions for any of the components of the Study Product e.g., gelatine * 8\. Unstable body weight or recent participation in a weight loss program (within 12-weeks prior to screening). * 9\. Has any significant acute or chronic coexisting health conditions that would prevent them from fulfilling the study requirements, put the Participant at risk or would confound the interpretation of the study results as judged by the investigator on the basis of medical history and routine laboratory test results. Excluded health conditions include: * a. Major illness/surgery in the 12-weeks prior to screening * b. Diagnosed cardiovascular disease (NHYA Class III or IV congestive heart failure, atrial fibrillation, uncontrolled arrhythmia, uncontrolled hypertension) * c. Diagnosed liver disease (cirrhosis, end stage liver disease) * d. Diagnosed kidney disease (stage 3b or 4 chronic kidney disease, or kidney failure) * e. Diagnosed gastrointestinal disease (IBS/IBD, diarrhoea, Acid Reflux) * f. Uncontrolled thyroid conditions * g. Uncontrolled diabetes * h. Metallic implants * i. Conditions requiring chemotherapy or immunotherapy. * 10\. Current or recent use of a medication that the investigator believes would interfere with the objectives of the study or pose a safety risk or confound the interpretation of the study results. Prohibited medications include: * a. Statins or other medications known to impair mitochondrial function. * b. Anxiolytics, antidepressants, sedative hypnotics (in the 8 weeks prior to visit 1) * c. Antipsychotics, monoamine Oxidase Inhibitors (in the 8 weeks prior to visit 1) * d. Oral anti- infective (antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals) for acute infections (in the 12-weeks prior to visit 1) * e. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) (in the 4 weeks prior to visit 1) * f. Corticosteroids (\> 5mg per day in the past 4 weeks prior to visit 1) * g. GLP-1 agonists (in the 8 weeks prior to visit 1) * 11\. Current or recent (in the past 6-weeks prior to Visit 1) use of prohibited nutritional or non-nutritional supplements that the investigator believes would interfere with the objectives of the study or pose a safety risk or confound the interpretation of the study results. Prohibited supplements include: * a. Mitopure® containing supplements * b. Supplements for muscle strengthening/building or mitochondrial boosting supplements (e.g. high protein, Vitamin B3 \[and precursors\], L-carnitine, CoQ10, NAD+, resveratrol) * 12\. Blood donation in the 8-weeks prior to screening. * 13\. Individuals who, in the opinion of the investigator, are considered to be poor attendees or unlikely for any reason to be able to comply with the study. * 14\. Participants may not be participating in other clinical studies. If the participant has previously taken part in an experimental study (physical or muscle performance), the Investigator must ensure sufficient time has elapsed before entry to this study to ensure the integrity of the results.
