Trial Outcomes & Findings for Examination of Zinc, S-adenosylmethionine, and Combination Therapy Versus Placebo in Alcoholics (NCT NCT01899521)
NCT ID: NCT01899521
Last Updated: 2024-09-19
Results Overview
Improvement in alveolar macrophage phagocytic index. Phagocytic index will be measured before and after treatment phase. Phagocytic index is calculated using isolated alveolar macrophages from the bronchoscopy procedure such that phagocytic index = (total number of engulfed cells/total number of counted macrophages) x (number of macrophages containing engulfed cells/total number of counted macrophages) x 100.

Participant Flow
Participants are enrolled when they sign consent, however, only get randomized after completing first bronchoscopy procedure. Therefore, there were some participants who enrolled but never completed the procedure in order to be randomized into a group. This is the reason for the discrepancy in numbers.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome
Timeframe: Initial bronchoscopy to second bronchoscopy (Initial bronchoscopy performed prior to treatment and second bronchoscopy done 2-3 weeks after starting treatment)Population: The cells were not stained appropriately, so this secondary measure could not be completed because the results were not analyzable.
Improvement in alveolar macrophage granulocyte macrophage - colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) receptor expression. GM-CSF receptor expression will be measured before and after treatment phase using isolated alveolar macrophages. The units of measure are relative fluorescence units/cell (RFU/cell) and measured using confocal microscopy techniques. Both alpha- and beta-subunits of the receptor will be measured.
