Breakthrough Medication
Primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a condition where the immune system mistakenly destroys platelets, which are cells that help stop bleeding. This leads to a low number of platelets, making it easier to bruise or bleed. The main aim of this study is to learn whether mezagitamab, when given just under the skin (subcutaneously \[SC\]), is effective in keeping the platelet count of adults with ITP stable when compared to a placebo. A placebo looks like medicine but doesn't have any active ingredients in it. The participants will be treated with mezagitamab for up to 6 months. During the study, participants will visit their study clinic several times. Participants who complete the TAK-079-3002 study or do not have any response to study treatment by week 16 (according to study criteria) will be given the opportunity to participate in a continuation study to receive open label mezagitamab (if they are eligible and the site is able to open the continuation study).

Many people know that a poor diet, exercise, smoking, and alcohol use cause heart disease. However, a less known factor that increases the risk of heart disease is depression. In addition, heart disease can also make depression worse. Almost half of American adults have some form of heart disease. Patients with low income are at an even greater risk. The circular relation between depression and heart disease raises the question of whether or not there are factors that lead to both. Attacking a factor that affects both depression and heart disease could help prevent them both. One such factor is rumination which is when someone tends to have repeated negative thoughts that loop without end. This loop in turn tears and wears down the body over time, making the person be at risk for heart disease and depression. Rumination-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (RFCBT) is a tool that targets rumination and, by doing so, reduces the risk for depression. While research has shown RFCBT helps to reduce or stop the loop that leads to depression, this project will further look at the effect of RFCBT on measures of heart health persons with low income.

This clinical trial will investigate the ability of thromboelastrogrpahy (TEG®) to detect hypercoagulability after liver surgery and will examine the effect of extended thromboprophylaxis (medical treatment to prevent the development of blood clots inside blood vessels) in patients undergoing liver surgery for cancer treatment. The liver plays a key role in regulating the process of blood clotting. As a result, blood clots are a major cause of complications and death following liver surgery. This is especially true in cancer patients who are at a higher risk of developing blood clots. Current methods for preventing clotting complications after liver surgery include conventional coagulation blood tests (CCTs) and anticoagulant drugs, such as low molecular weight heparins (LMWHs). Current LMWH treatment is prescribed for one month after surgery, but studies show that the risk of developing blood clots can last up to 3 months. Studies also show that CCTs may not be as effective in detecting clotting issues as more comprehensive testing systems, such as TEG. This study will randomize 50 participants to receive 90 days of thromboprophylaxis (using the LMWH Redesca) or the standard of care 30 days (using the LMWH Fragmin) after liver surgery. The medication will be given by injection, similar to a regular vaccine or an insulin injection. Participants will inject the medication every day, for 30 or 90 days, after surgery. Participants will also have their blood tested for clotting issues via TEG testing before surgery and on post-operative days 1,3,5,30 and 90. After surgery, participants will be monitored by their surgeon for clotting complications and 3 year disease-free survival.

In this trial, we aim to improve the outcomes of haplo cord transplant. Haplo cord transplant is a novel and promising way to improve transplant outcomes. We hypothesize that identification of a graft that is at least 5/6 matched and inherited paternal antigen (IPA) targeted (i.e., cord blood grafts share one or more IPA antigens with the prospective recipient) is more important to the outcome of haplo cord transplant than the nucleated cell dose. The identification of such a graft for a large proportion of the subjects may necessitate accepting a lower umbilical cord graft dose. In addition to a umbilical cord blood transplant, recipients will receive stem cells from a family member ( a haplo-identical donor) . After collection and prior to infusion, these cells will be purified using a device called a CliniMACS CD34 selection device. The subject will undergo a chemotherapy conditioning regimen prior to transplantation. No experimental drugs are used in this study, and the combinations of drugs that will be used in the conditioning regimen are combinations that have been used in the past.

Adult patients on extracoporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) frequently experience bleeding, which is in part caused by acquired von Willebrand syndrome (vWS). Prior in vitro studies have shown that the addition of recombinant von Willebrand Factor (vWF) to ECMO patient blood samples, normalizes platelet adhesion and thrombus formation. This study is a phase I study, where adult ECMO patients with refractory bleeding will be treated with recombinant vWF a single time. The primary objectives are to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of recombinant vWF in adult ECMO patients.

Premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) is a severe affective disorder impacting millions of women worldwide, thought to be due to altered sensitivity to hormone fluctuations across the menstrual cycle. Neuroactive steroid hormones (NAS) and the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A receptor (GABAAR) are thought to play a role in PMDD. This research will assess the blood levels of GABAergic NAS, expression of associated enzymes, and expression of GABAAR subunits across the premenstrual (luteal) phase of the menstrual cycle in healthy controls and individuals with PMDD. Within the PMDD group, the investigators will assess how these measures are affected by a low-dose antidepressant medication versus placebo. The results will provide a comprehensive view of the changes in these systems across the menstrual cycle and will add to the investigator's understanding of the mechanisms that underlie PMDD, as well as therapeutic mechanisms of PMDD treatment.

Salt Reduction Diet for High Blood Pressure

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
This trial is studying young adults who were born prematurely to understand how salt affects their blood pressure. Researchers will see if stopping the body from making uric acid can help lower their blood pressure and improve heart health. The goal is to find better ways to prevent and treat heart disease in this high-risk group. Uric acid has been suspected to be a risk factor for high blood pressure since the 1870s, and lowering uric acid has shown potential in reducing blood pressure in individuals with high blood pressure.

The investigators aim to test the introduction of genomic testing early in the diagnostic pathway for inherited bleeding disorders in patients who have not received a diagnosis after first-line testing. The goal of this clinical trial is to test the introduction of genomic testing early in the diagnostic pathway for patients referred to Hematology for a suspected inherited bleeding disorder. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Does adding early genomic testing increase the number of patients who are diagnosed? 2. Does adding early genomic testing decrease the overall time to diagnosis? 3. Is it cost-effective to include early genomic testing in the diagnostic pathway? The investigators will compare with a control group of participants who are receiving standard care (no early genomic testing). Participants will randomized to a standardized diagnostic testing plus early genomic testing group or to the standardized diagnostic testing group only (with the possibility of being offered genomic testing after 1 year in the study).

Background: Runt-related transcription factor 1 (RUNX1) gene regulates the formation of blood cells. People with mutations of this gene may bleed or bruise easily; they are also at higher risk of getting cancers of the blood, bone marrow, and lymph nodes. Objective: To test a drug (imatinib) in people with RUNX1 mutations that cause symptoms. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with RUNX1 mutations. Healthy people without this mutation, including family members of affected participants, are also needed. Design: Participants with the RUNX1 mutation will be screened. They will have a physical exam with blood and urine tests. They will have a test of their heart function. They may need a new bone marrow biopsy: A sample of soft tissue will be removed from inside a bone. Imatinib is a tablet taken by mouth once a day, every day, at home. Affected participants in different parts of the study will take imatinib for either 28 days or up to 84 days. Participants will visit the clinic once a week for the first 28 days that they are taking the imatinib. Then they will come once every 2 weeks if they are taking the drug for 84 days. Blood, urine, and tests of heart function will be repeated. They may opt to have the bone marrow biopsy repeated after they finish their course of imatinib. Participants will have a follow-up visit 30 days after they stop taking imatinib. Participants who do not have the RUNX1 mutation will have 1 clinic visit. They will have blood tests. They will fill out questionnaires. They may opt to have a bone marrow biopsy....

Gay, bisexual, queer, and other men who have sex with men (GBM) continue to bear a disproportionate burden of the sexually transmitted and blood-borne infections (STBBI), largely attributable to efficient transmission during condomless anal sex (CAS; Baggaley et al., 2010). In 2022, GBM accounted for 38.1% of new HIV diagnoses in Canada (Public Health Agency of Canada, 2023). Incidence of syphilis, chlamydia and gonorrhea have risen among men who have sex with men (MSM), especially among HIV+ GBM living in Canadian urban centres, including Toronto and Quebec (Public Health Agency of Canada, 2022). Post-traumatic stress disorder prevalence is also higher among GBM than among heterosexual men (Roberts et al., 2010). Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a risk factor for CAS and related STBBI among GBM (O'Cleirigh, 2019). Despite the strong association between PTSD and STBBI risk among GBM, no studies have examined the efficacy of PTSD treatment on STBBI risk among GBM. PTSD may also increase substance use in sexual situations, another risk factor for STBBIs among GBQM (Semple et al., 2011; Elkington et al., 2010). Substance use tends to follow PTSD because alcohol and other substances are often used to self-medicate trauma symptoms (as an avoidant coping strategy) in interpersonal situations (Tan et al., 2021). Alcohol and substance use in sexual situations are consistent risk factors for CAS among Canadian GBQM (Lambert et al., 2011), and are associated with higher HIV incidence. Due to consistent data linking substance use to STBBI risk, it has been suggested that incorporating alcohol and substance use treatment into sexual risk reduction counselling (Koblin et al., 2006; Parsons et al., 2005; Shoptaw \& Frosch, 2000) may increase the efficacy of STBBI prevention efforts for GBQM. PTSD is highly treatable via cognitive-behavioural therapies, including by Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT; Benight \& Bandura, 2004; Monson \& Shnaider, 2014; Watkins et al., 2018). The present study will provide preliminary feasibility and acceptability data for a novel and innovative STI/HIV prevention intervention for GBQM. This intervention builds upon empirically supported treatments for PTSD, including PTSD-related substance use, by adding risk reduction counselling to reduce sexually transmitted infections (STI) and HIV sexual risk behaviour. The present study will provide trial data for a novel and innovative STBBI prevention psychotherapy for GBM that could be administered by mental health providers across Canada. The intervention will consist of 14 90-minute sessions of an integrated cognitive-behavioural approach using CPT to treat PTSD and to reduce STBBI risks among GBQM. The primary outcome will be condomless anal sex with casual partners. The secondary outcomes will be PTSD prevalence, trauma symptoms, problematic substance use, sexual risk, and PTSD-related avoidance of negative thoughts and feelings. This psychotherapy intervention will build upon empirically supported interventions to reduce HIV risk.

Patients with autonomic failure are characterized by disabling orthostatic hypotension (low blood pressure on standing), and at least half of them also have high blood pressure while lying down (supine hypertension). Exposure to heat, such as in hot environments, often worsens their orthostatic hypotension. The causes of this are not fully understood. The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether applying local heat over the abdomen of patients with autonomic failure and supine hypertension during the night would decrease their nocturnal high blood pressure while lying down. This will help us better understand the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon, and may be of use in the treatment of supine hypertension.

This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of veliparib when given together with topotecan hydrochloride with or without carboplatin in treating patients with relapsed or refractory acute leukemia, high-risk myelodysplasia, or aggressive myeloproliferative disorders. Veliparib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as topotecan hydrochloride and carboplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving veliparib together with topotecan hydrochloride and carboplatin may kill more cancer cells.

Standard of care for patients with opioid use disorder and complicated infections is discharge to subacute nursing facilities on IV antibiotics until completion of treatment course. We aim to determine the efficacy of an alternative strategy using intermittent outpatient oritavancin therapy dosed weekly combined with initiation and continuation of medication assisted treatment for opioid use disorder for completion of antimicrobial therapy in a 12 week prospective, open-label study. Patients hospitalized for a drug use related infection and thought to need prolonged parenteral antimicrobial therapy will be assessed by a substance use consultant and Infectious Diseases service. If they are not on Medication for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD), they will be assessed for initiation of MOUD. A collaborative multidisciplinary discharge planning process will be initiated and will involve linkage to care. If they have an infection with a gram positive organism, and are thought to be clinically stable for hospital discharge, they will be assessed for appropriateness for oritavancin and first dose will be administered prior to discharge. They will have an intake into an opioid treatment program where they can access collocated services and will be discharged with linkage to care through a peer recovery coach. They will be assessed in this collocated clinic post discharge for optimization of MOUD and progress of infection and subsequent dose/s of oritavancin will be administered. Patients will be followed for 12 weeks for cure/completion of therapy and MOUD outcomes.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if a personalized prenatal support program \[(Personalized Toolkit Building a Comprehensive Approach to Resource optimization and Empowerment in Pregnancy \& Beyond, (PTBCARE+)\] works to lower stress and lower the risk of early delivery in pregnant individuals at high-risk for delivering preterm. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * Does the PTBCARE+ patient support program lower patient-reported stress levels during pregnancy? * Does the PTBCARE+ patient support program improve biologic measures of stress during pregnancy? * Does the PTBCARE+ patient support program result in a higher chance of delivering a healthy baby at or close to full term? Researchers will compare people who participate in the PTBCARE+ patient support program to those receive usual care to see if the PTBCARE+ patient support program lowers patient-reported stress, improves biologic measures of stress, and increases the chance of delivering a healthy baby at or close to full term. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive the PTBCARE+ patient support program or usual prenatal care. All participants will be asked to: * complete 2 study visits during pregnancy - including completing electronic surveys, providing a blood and urine sample, measuring the heart rate variability by a clip or the ear or finger, and body composition evaluation using a simple scale-like device. * complete one study visit postpartum that includes completing electronic surveys, and measuring heart rate variability. Blood and urine sample collection and body composition evaluation via InBody scale are optional at the postpartum visit. People who are randomly assigned to receive the PTBCARE+ support program will receive several resources to help them during pregnancy. These things include items such as: * a stress reduction toolkit; * access to an online website that can also be downloaded as a smart phone app; * the option to receive an electronic massage while in clinic, and more. * additional support gifts provided at routine clinical appointments People who are randomly assigned to receive usual prenatal care will not receive any additional support resources from the study during pregnancy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Blood Disorder 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 Blood Disorder 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 Blood Disorder 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 Blood Disorder 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 Blood Disorder 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 Blood Disorder clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Prenatal Support Program for Premature Birth, Inhaled Nitric Oxide for Ischemic Stroke and Platelet Transfusion Thresholds for Low Platelet Count in Premature Infants to the Power online platform.
