Study summary

This trial is an open-label randomized controlled parallel arm feasibility trial. 54 residents in care homes receiving nutrition supplementation (minimum 40% of each sex, ≥ 50 years of age). Participants will receive the egg white pudding (experimental) or a standard currently provided dietary supplement (control) on a daily basis and will be advised to follow any dietary recommendations they receive from their care team. Participants will be recruited at personal care homes throughout Winnipeg. Study visits will take place with a study coordinator at baseline and at 8 weeks (endpoint). Product acceptability will be assessed through dietary logs. This study has been reviewed and approved by The Committee for Harmonized Health Impact, Privacy, and Ethics Review (CHIPER).

Read the detailed description

This trial is an open-label randomized controlled parallel arm feasibility trial. 54 residents from non-shared health personal care home centres (target of a minimum 40% of each sex, ≥ 50 years of age) will be recruited. Participants will receive the egg white pudding (experimental) 5 days a week or a standard currently provided dietary supplement (control) 7 days a week and will be advised to follow any dietary recommendations they receive from their care team. The personal care home team will approach residents or their ADM to participate in the research. Once a potential participant confirms interest, the research team will approach them for scheduling a screening visit. As part of the screening process, the care team may provide the research team with information on the participant's MDS (Minimum Data Set) level, which is routinely collected by personal care homes in Canada (levels 1-3). This information will be recorded at the screening visit for descriptive purposes only and will not be used to exclude any participants. The research coordinator and research assistant will also oversee and document the dispensing of products, which will be administered by the care team at the home care centre. After the screening visit, study visits will take place with a research coordinator or research assistant at Week 1 (baseline) and at Week 8 (endpoint). Product acceptability will be assessed through feedback questionnaire.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Hand Grip Strength

    Hand grip strength will be measured using a specialized handheld device called a hand dynamometer that records the maximum isometric force generated in kilograms or pounds.

    Time frame: 8 weeks

Secondary outcomes

  1. Waist circumference

    The study staff will wrap a flexible tape measure around participants' middle at the level of the belly button or just above the hip bones.

    Time frame: 8 weeks

  2. Body weight

    Body weight will be measured by participants stepping onto a digital or mechanical weighing scale placed on a hard, flat surface

    Time frame: 8 weeks

  3. Calf Circumference

    The study staff will wrap a flexible tape measure around the widest part of participants' lower leg while keeping the tape snug but comfortable.

    Time frame: 8 weeks

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Jun 2026 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Feb 2027, 8 months after the start.

Of 492 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Sarcopenia, half reached primary completion within 18 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 34. This study's planned 8 months is below that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 503 studies reached it within 18 months; a quarter within 8 and three quarters within 34.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Sep 8, 2026, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
