Genistein Use in Postmenopausal Women With Metabolic Syndrome
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating genistein and placebo for Metabolic Syndrome. Completed, enrolled 120 participants across 3 sites.
Detailed Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether the phytoestrogen genistein is effective in improving bone condition in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women suffering for osteopenia. Since, during the study the investigators realized that at least 70% of post-menopausal recruited women suffered for metabolic syndrome (MS), we have added only in these women, as secondary outcome measures, the evaluation of markers of cardiovascular risk.
