Data from a prospective phase 2 clinical study and numerous retrospective clinical studies proved the anticancer effect of deuterium depletion achieved by replacing the regular water intake with deuterium-depleted water (DDW). In previous studies, the changes in serum D concentration of DDW-consuming patients were followed using blood samples and mass spectrometry, which was invasive, costly, and time-consuming. As future clinical trials will also require a follow-up of internal D level and the patient’s compliance, a new sampling device and procedure was developed based on condensing the exhaled breath water vapor and measuring its D content using a liquid water isotope laser analyzer. Test results showed that the device provided accurate, reliable, and reproducible data. According to the data, the internal D level in a person consuming normal water was stable. In contrast, exclusive consumption of DDW for several days resulted in a gradual decrease of D concentration in exhaled breath condensate (EBC), which was proportional to the D concentration of DDW. These data confirm that orally applied DDW equilibrates with the person’s water pool quickly, leading to a reduced internal D level reflected in the D content of EBC.展开更多
