Basis: Evaluating Sirtuin Supplements To Benefit Elderly Trauma Patients (BES2T BET) A phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, single institutional pilot trial investigating the impact of nicotinamide riboside/pterstilbene (BasisTM) on functional recovery after traumatic fall in elderly patients
.
This Phase I pilot study will determine if supplementing with the combination of NR and Pter (BasisTM) is well tolerated and will provide the pretrial data necessary to plan a randomized clinical trial aimed at determining if BasisTM improves the functional outcome of injured elderly patients.
Primary Objective
• To determine if BasisTM is well tolerated by elderly patients up to 90 days post injury
Secondary Objectives:
Elderly trauma patients who present after a traumatic injury will be screened and enrolled within 48 hours of their trauma evaluation. Baseline status will be determined using functional surveys, physical assessments, and physiologic measurements. Patients will be randomized to either BasisTM or placebo for 90 days. Patients will be reassessed at 2 weeks, 6 weeks (optional) and 90 days. Activity and heart rate will be monitored continuously using a wrist FitBit Device.

| 90 days |
| 6 Minute Timed Walk Test Scores | To measure if BasisTM preserves or improves 6 minute Timed Walk Test according to the AmericanThoracic Society Guidelines. | 90 days |
| Timed Get Up and Go Test Scores | To measure if BasisTM preserves or improves timed get up and go scores | 90 days |
| Measurement of Muscle/ Fat Ratio | To measure if BasisTM preserves or improves physiologic composition (muscle/fat) ratio) using bioelectric impedance | 90 days |
| Incidence of Adverse Events | To analyze if BasisTM decreases 90 day incidence of recurrent falls | 90 days |
| Incidence of Pain and Daily Pain Medication Dosage | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being pain through measurement of pain medication amounts and frequency. | 90 days |
| Analysis of Quality of Life Scores | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of EuroQol 5 Dimensions-5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) scores and EuroQol Visual Analogue Scale (EQ Vas). EQ-5D-5L Scores consist of 5 sections: Mobility, Self-Care, Usual Activities, Pain/ discomfort and Anxiety/ Depression. The minimum score in each is 1, and the maximum is 5, where 5 indicates extreme problems and 1 indicates no problems. A total of 3125 possible health states exist and each stats is referred to in terms of a 5 digit code. State 11111 indicates no problems on any of the 5 dimensions, whereas state 12345 indicates no problems with mobility, slight problems with washing or dressing, moderate problems with doing usual activities, severe pain or discomfort and extreme anxiety or depression. The EQ-VAS is scored from 0 to 100 where 0 means the worst health you can imagine and 100 means the best health you can imagine. | 90 days |
| Late Life Function and Disability Instrument Scores analysis as a measure of subject independence, function, and disability | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of Late Life Function and Disability Scores. Questions are scored on a scale of 5 to 1, where 1 means no difficulties with function and 1 means patients are unable to complete the functions on their own. Disability questions are scored from 1 to 5, where 1 means subjects do not complete activities and feel limited and 5 means subjects can complete activities and don't feel at all limited. Scores are computed using the LLFDI Scoring Software. | 90 days |
| Analysis of scores on Mini Mental Status Exam as a measure of cognitive function and dementia | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of Mini Mental Status Scores. The maximum score is 30 and the sections are orientation (10 points), registration (3 points), attention and calculation (5 points), recall (3 points), language and praxis (9 points). 0 is the lowest and 30 is the best score. | 90 days |
| Analysis of subject nutrition through Mini Nutritional Assessment Scores | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of Mini Nutritional Assessment scores. The maximum score is 14 points and the lowest (worst score) is 0. | 90 days |
| Analysis of Subject independence using Barthel Index scores | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of Barthel Index Scores. The index consists of 10 Activities of daily living, 8 of which represent activities related to personal care while 2 are related to mobility. The index yields a total score out of 100 with higher scores indicating greater degrees of functional independence. | 90 days |
| Analysis of patient comorbidities as a measure of adverse events in evaluating Basis tolerability | To analyze the impact of BasisTM on subjective well-being through analysis of Charlson comorbidity index scores. The CCI accounts for 19 pre-defined comorbid conditions and is given a different weight depending on each's association with 1-year mortality. The total score in CCI is determined by the combined weight of the patient's conditions, where higher scores represent worse conditions. | 90 days |
