Summary

The lay summary the sponsor registered on ClinicalTrials.gov.

This phase 2 trial is a single-site sequential, multiple assignment, randomized trial (SMART) to test and construct a high-quality adaptive intervention of essential amino acids (EAA) and/or Low Sugar Diet for children with metabolic dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and increased cardiometabolic risk. The basis for the trial includes high-quality pilot data in both EAA for hepatic steatosis and a low sugar diet for hepatic steatosis. In the trial, children aged 11-17 years old will be eligible to participate if their BMI is greater than or equal to 95th% at baseline and hepatic steatosis is greater than or equal to 8% at baseline by Magnetic Resonance Imaging Proton Density Fat Fraction (MRI-PDFF) because this is the most common age group diagnosed with metabolic-dysfunction associated steatotic liver disease.

Investigators

The overall officials registered on this study. Names that resolve to a findmyKOL profile link to it; the rest are shown as registered.

A profile link is shown only when the registered name resolves to a person record with a confident, namesake-checked match; ambiguous names stay unlinked.

Sites

1 registered facility, with the per-site recruitment status where the registry publishes one. ClinicalTrials.gov does not publish per-site enrollment counts.

United States

Site investigator names are published by ClinicalTrials.gov only while a study recruits, so completed studies list sites without them.

Drugs studied

The drug and biological interventions registered on this study, normalized to their RxNorm ingredient where possible.
