Clinical Trial Summary
A 12-week double-blind randomized control trial will be conducted among adults on
hemodialysis (n=15) to determine the impact of liposomal curcumin in a high-protein product
on inflammation markers and oxidative stress. Participants will be randomized via a
computer-generator into either the control or intervention group. Participants in each group
will be given a total of 38 g of a high protein product with or without 7 mls of liposomal
curcumin for a total of 8 weeks. At baseline, weeks 8 and 12, participants will have blood
sampled and complete a 3-day 24-hour recalls (2 non-dialysis days and 1 dialysis day) and a
quality of life survey.
Description:
This is a 12-week double-blind randomized controlled trial to evaluate the impact of
liposomal curcumin in a high-protein product on inflammation markers for adults undergoing
hemodialysis. CRP and oxidative stress will be assessed from monthly blood samples using
Elisa kits. Quality of life will be measured using the standard 36-item kidney disease
quality of life instrument. There will be a 2-month recruitment period prior to the start of
the trial to ensure the potential participants are familiarized with the clinical trial.
Eligible participants will sign the consent form to participate in the study. Once the
expected number of participants has been reached, they will be randomized 1:1 using block
randomization. Randomization will be done using a computer-generated program.
The intervention will take place over an 8-week period. Participants will have their blood
drawn at the beginning of the study by the dialysis practitioner and start receiving the
product on their next scheduled dialysis appointment. Participants will be receiving the
product three times a week in accordance with their dialysis schedule (M-W-F or T-Th-S), for
a total of 24 treatments. Blood will be collected at baseline, at the end of the study and a
month after to assess any carryover effects. Additionally, participants will complete 3-day
24-hour recalls (2 non-dialysis days and 1 dialysis day), a spice-consumption survey, and a
quality-of-life assessment at the beginning and end of the study.
