Lutein Influence on Macula of Persons Issued From Amd Parents
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating Nutrof Total and Placebo Nutrof total for Persons Issued From Amd Parents. Completed, enrolled 120 participants across 2 sites.
Detailed Summary
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative disease of the centre of the retina (named macula) and is the leading cause of blindness in industrialized countries. There is growing interest in the potential preventive role of two carotenoids (lutein and zeaxanthin) of dietary origin, which specifically accumulate in the macula, where they form the macular pigment. A first step towards the demonstration of a preventive effect of macular pigment for AMD consists in the evaluation of the effect of lutein and zeaxanthin supplementation on their plasma and retinal concentrations.
