Vitamin D Supplementation and PTH Response Among Malaysian Adults

Early Phase 1

Completed

• Conditions: Healthy

• Registration Number: NCT05281107
• Lead Sponsor: International Medical University

Brief Summary

This clinical trial was designed to determine the efficacy of vitamin D supplementation on plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D \[25(OH)D\] and intact parathyroid hormone (PTH) concentrations of Malaysian female adults of child-bearing age after daily intake of vitamin D supplements containing either 0 IU, 600 IU, 1200 IU or 4000 IU vitamin D for 16 weeks.

Detailed Description

After being informed regarding the study protocol and requirements, participants given informed consent were interviewed using a questionnaire for collection of background data and medical history as a screening process. Eligible participants were randomly assigned in a double-blind manner to receive daily 500 mg of calcium with either 0, 600 IU, 1200 IU or 4000 IU vitamin D supplement for 16 weeks. Questionnaires and anthropometric measurements were collected at baseline and post 16 weeks supplementation trial. Primary outcomes of plasma 25(OH)D and intact PTH were measured via fasting intravenous blood samples at baseline and post 16 weeks trial.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Change from baseline plasma 25-hydroxyvitamin D at week 16	Baseline and week 16	5ml of fasting blood sample were taken by venepuncture into heparin tubes. Collected blood samples were centrifuged at 4000 rpm for 10 minutes, extracted plasma and stored at -80˚C until sent for analysis

Secondary Outcome Measures
