NERv's traditional feasibility clinical trial is a multi-center, pre-market, single-arm, and non-randomized trial. This study will involve the retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data. The trial is intended to establish the safety of NERv's Inline Device and collect preliminary data to illustrate the change in pH and electrical conductivity during normal postoperative recovery and in the event of a complication. The purpose of NERv's feasibility study is to establish a clinical model that shows the progressive change in pH and electrical conductivity during a normal post-operative recovery and in the event of an anastomotic leak in colorectal, hepatobiliary (HPB), trauma, and general surgery patients. Upon analyzing data collected from NERv's Inline Device, a clinical model of change in pH and conductivity over time will be created. The clinical model can be used in future stages to determine if a complication is developing. For instance, boundaries (reading thresholds) can be established to detect a complication when readings exceed such boundaries.

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most diagnosed cancer in Canada. The most common surgical procedure in patients with CRC is an intestinal resection followed by a reconnection to rejoin the ends of the remaining bowel. Among the postoperative complications, leaking of this intestinal connection is notably feared, affecting up to 20% of patients. These leaks are characterized by impaired intestinal healing and are associated with severe infections and even death. Various studies have shown that gut microbiota, the bacteria that live in the digestive tract, plays an essential role in intestinal healing following surgery. These results support the possibility of enhancing intestinal healing through supplements that act as an energy source for gut bacteria. Indeed, animal studies have shown that inulin supplementation, a fiber commonly found in plants, improves intestinal healing following bowel surgery. However, no studies in humans have evaluated its effects on CRC surgery patients. This study aims to determine feasibility of a randomized controlled trial that assesses the effects of inulin supplementation before elective colorectal surgery.

Avoiding warm ischemia time during vascular anastomosis of the renal allograft is important to prevent damage. The investigators are studying a cooling device that may control the temperature of the renal allograft during transplant surgery; attempting to keep temperatures at or below 5°C for at least 60 minutes. If found effective, this could eliminate warm ischemia and potentially prevent damage to transplanted kidneys.

Why Other Patients Applied

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

ADHD PatientAge: 31

"I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."

Obesity PatientAge: 58

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

ZS
Depression PatientAge: 51

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

Why We Started Power

We started Power when my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and I struggled to help him access the latest immunotherapy. Hopefully Power makes it simpler for you to explore promising new treatments, during what is probably a difficult time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Anastomotic Complication clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Anastomotic Complication clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Anastomotic Complication trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Anastomotic Complication is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Anastomotic Complication medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Anastomotic Complication clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Cooling Device for Kidney Complication, Inulin Supplementation for Anastomotic Complication and NERv's Inline Device for Postoperative Complications to the Power online platform.
