NCT ID: NCT03440346 Completed - Clinical trials for Attention Deficit-Hyperactivity Disorder

Biomarker Research in ADHD: the Impact of Nutrition

BRAIN
Start date: February 19, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is the most common childhood behavioural disorder, causing significant impediment to a child's development. The exact aetiology of ADHD is still unknown. It is a complex disorder with numerous contributing (epi)genetic and environmental factors. Currently, treatment predominantly consists of behavioural and pharmacological therapy. However, medication use is associated with several side effects and concerns about long-term effects and efficacy exist. Therefore, there is considerable interest in the development of alternative treatment options. Double-blind research investigating the effect of a few-foods diet (FFD) has demonstrated large improvements in ADHD symptoms. However, following an FFD requires great effort of both the child and parents. To make this treatment easier or potentially obsolete, it is important to understand how and in which children an FFD affects ADHD symptoms. The investigators hypothesise that an FFD affects brain function and behaviour, including ADHD symptoms, via the complex network of communication between the microbiota, gut and brain, i.e. the MGB axis. The aim of this study is to identify potential mechanism(s) underlying the impact of an FFD on ADHD symptoms and to identify biomarkers that predict the response to the FFD. 100 boys with ADHD will follow the FFD for 5 weeks. After inclusion, all participants will start with a baseline period, during which they will maintain their regular diet. The baseline period ends at the end of week 2. Thereafter, participants will follow a 5-week FFD, preceded by a 1-week transition period. The FFD period ends at the end of week 8. At the end of the baseline period (i.e. at the end of week 2) and at the end of the FFD (i.e. at the end of week 8), fMRI scans will be made, blood and buccal saliva will be collected, and stool and urine will be handed in. Children will do computer tasks and parents will complete questionnaires to monitor ADHD and physical complaints. All samples will be analysed by researchers blinded to behavioural responses to the FFD. To assess the impact of the FFD on brain function and the MGB axis, associations between ADHD behavioural changes and changes in other primary and secondary study outcomes will be analysed. This study may lead to the identification of biomarkers that can predict the response to an FFD. Understanding which changes - induced by an FFD - lead to improvements in ADHD symptoms may provide new avenues for developing treatments. Ultimately, the findings may enable personalised intervention strategies based on an individuals' configuration of the MGB axis.

NCT ID: NCT03433820 Completed - Wound Healing Clinical Trials

Wound Healing in Healthy Volunteers

Start date: October 26, 2017
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The skin plays a critical role in protection where it acts as a barrier from damage and pathogens between the external and internal environments. Wounds compromise its protective role by disrupting the function and the normal structure of the skin and the underlying soft tissue. As a response to injury wound healing occurs in order to rapidly restore the defect. This process involves activation of keratinocytes, fibroblasts, endothelial cells, macrophages, and platelets and consists of multiple phases including hemostasis, inflammation, migration and cellular proliferation, and maturation and remodeling. A simplified schematic of the course of wound healing is depicted in Figure 2. Hemostasis occurs immediately after dermal injury. The inflammation phase is characterized by cellular recruitment and increased vascular permeability. The epithelization phase is achieved by proliferation of basal cells and migration of epithelial cells. The last phase is known as the maturation and remodeling phase where collagen cross-linking and remodeling, wound contraction, and repigmentation takes place. Due to the broad involvement of various cell types, extracellular matrix and many reactive molecules each phase in wound healing produces characteristic changes within the tissue. A deficiency in any part of the process can lead to delayed wound healing, abnormal scar formation or chronic wounds. To study wound healing in healthy volunteers a challenge model with skin punch biopsies has been described in literature previously. However, the characterization of this model was not performed comprehensively since advanced analysis of biopsies were omitted. Furthermore, analyses performed in previous studies only partially described wound healing processes either by insufficient time points for characterization or scarce simultaneous evaluations of multiple wound healing modalities. The overall aim of this study is to develop a standardized model to temporarily and locally induce a skin trauma to investigate wound healing and monitor wound closure. This clinical model will enable future application as proof-of-pharmacology and proof-of concept studies as well as drug profiling in early drug development programs. More specifically, the objective of the trial is to explore and characterize the induction of well-defined skin trauma and natural wound healing process over the course of the different phases using a battery of dermatological assessments after skin punch biopsies in healthy volunteers. Furthermore, safety and tolerability will be assessed. Characterization and monitoring of wound healing effects following skin punch biopsies will be performed by means of biophysical, biochemical, imaging, clinical parameters and subject reported outcomes.
