Tolerability and Safety of Nano-Tocotrienols
Conditions: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM)
Sex: All
Ages: 18 Years – 60 Years
Healthy volunteers: Yes
Phase: PHASE2
Enrollment: 360
Sponsor: University of Malaya
Location: Universiti Malaya Medical Centre Kuala Lumpur Kuala Lumpur
Summary
The goal of this randomised controlled trial is to determine the long term safety and tolerability of nano-tocotrienols (50 - 400 mg/day for 6-months duration) to be used as a health supplement in both healthy individuals and those with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study will compare patients (both healthy and individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus) receiving placebo and those receiving nano-tocotrienols. They would then be followed up at 3 months and 6 months intervals to determine if there is any adverse events experienced with the supplement.
