Trial Outcomes & Findings for CDP-Choline and Working Memory After TBI: A Neuroimaging Study (NCT NCT00727246)

NCT ID: NCT00727246

Last Updated: 2017-07-28

Results Overview

.A mean index score created as a composite cognitive performance across domains. Purpose was to serve as a measure of overall cognitive functioning for data analysis. A higher T-score indicates a higher level of cognitive function. Due to matching criteria of age range, gender and education level, as well as the small number of subjects with TBI who complete the study (n = 5), matched groups required a reduction to 2 subjects per group for analysis as planned per protocol. Due to the small number of subjects in this study overall, although analyses were run, results should be considered with caution.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks

Population: A repeated measure ANOVA was completed to evaluate potential differences in cognitive composite scores of subjects with TBI as compared to healthy controls 6 weeks after treatment with CDP Choline (1000 mg CDP-Choline 2 x per day for 6 weeks) as compared to those treated with placebo. Matching criteria and small n for TBI group reduced group sizes.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 6 weeks

Population: cognitive composite scores of individuals with a history of TBI as compared to healthy controls 6 weeks after treatment with CDP Choline (1000 mg CDP-Choline 2 x per day for 6 weeks) as compared to those treated with placebo. See note above related to the limited number of subjects in each group.

A mean index score created as a composite cognitive performance across domains. Purpose was to serve as a measure of overall cognitive functioning for data analysis. Higher T-scores indicate higher levels of cognitive functioning. Due to the small number of subjects in this study, this second analysis was completed using the same number of subjects in the TBI and control groups, but without matching so that a slightly larger number of subject's data could be utilized. Although analyses were run, due to the very small number of participants in this study, results should be considered with caution.
