Registration Number
NCT02297997
Lead Sponsor
Seoul National University Hospital
Brief Summary

This study is to assess the impact on the prevention of sarcopenia after taking cetylpyridinium chloride targeting the patients of presarcopenia over the age of 60.

Detailed Description

65 people that meet the inclusion criteria on screening test are assigned to one of five groups by randomization. They take the medication for two weeks under double-blind. Four study groups take cetylpyridinium chloride of 1.5mg, 3mg, 4.5mg and 6mg daily for two weeks. Control group takes the placebo for the same period. The main outcome variables are measured and compared respectively in baseline, immediately after dosing end and two weeks after the end of administration. Finally cetylpyridinium chloride is verified whether it has a preventive effect on sarcopenia and set an appropriate dose.
