Determination of Pharmacokinetics of Different Curcuminoids Preparations: Pilot Study

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Plasma Levels of Different Curcuminoids Preparations
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Curcumin
Registration Number
NCT05542394
Lead Sponsor
University of Jordan
Brief Summary

This pilot study aims to investigate the pharmacokinetics of a novel curcuminoid preparation with suggested high bioavailability due to its solubility in water, compared to two standard hydrophobic formulations. The findings of this study will help the health care providers and community to select suitable formulation.

Detailed Description

This pilot study is the first phase that must be followed, in the second phase, by longer clinical trials to support the findings and investigate the role of the novel preparation on health.The second phase will include an assessment of the effectiveness of several doses of curcumin preparation on health as well as an evaluation of the tolerance and possible adverse effects. The latter could not be evaluated at this stage of a single dose.
