Diet Changes for Depression
Ann Arbor, Michigan
This study experimentally investigates 1) whether ultra processed food (UPF) intake contributes to depression by increasing low mood and poor sleep due to blood glucose fluctuations (which then increases the desire to consume more UPFs) and 2) to investigate the effectiveness of a 2-week meal-kit intervention that provides convenient and tasty minimally processed foods (MPF) to reduce depression. The following aims and hypotheses are tested:
Aim 1: To investigate whether UPF intake and low mood contribute to each other in a cyclical fashion through the mechanisms of blood glucose fluctuations and disrupted sleep in individuals with moderate-to-severe depression.
H1: It is hypothesized that UPF intake and high blood glucose will be associated with low mood in individuals with depression.
Aim 2: To establish an industry partnership to investigate whether commercially available meal kit delivery reduces symptoms of depression in individuals with moderate-to-severe depression relative to a nutrition education control condition.
H2: Meal kit delivery will lead to reductions in depression symptoms and daily reductions in low mood relative to the control condition (nutrition guidance only).

Surgical vs. Lifestyle Interventions for Type 2 Diabetes
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
This research study is being performed to begin to determine the effectiveness of two dominant bariatric surgery procedures versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss in patients and promote improvements in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in moderately obese patients.
T2DM is currently the 6th leading cause of mortality in the United States and is a major cause of kidney failure, blindness, amputations, heart attack, and other vascular and gastro-intestinal dysfunctions. Traditionally, treatments include intensive lifestyle modifications with or without glucose lowering agents. Neither treatment alone, or in combination, results in complete resolution of diabetes and its potential long-term complications. Bariatric surgery has been proven as an effective treatment to accomplish sustained and significant weight loss for those with severe obesity and has been shown to induce long-term remission of T2DM. However, despite enthusiasm for these potential treatment options, it is not clear whether diabetes is influenced by the type of surgery or by the amount of weight lost or if bariatric surgery is more effective than non-surgical weight loss induced by diet and physical activity in T2DM patients with moderate BMIs (30-40kg/m2; Class I and Class II obesity, or approximately 65-95 pounds overweight depending on your height). More well-controlled studies are needed to more completely inform health care decision making and clinical practice in this area. This research study aims to obtain preliminary information regarding the effectiveness of two major types of bariatric surgery, Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass and Laparoscopic Adjustable Gastric Banding versus an intensive lifestyle intervention to induce weight loss with diet and increased physical activity.

Mezagitamab for Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Louisville, Kentucky
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).

Rumination-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Depression
Louisville, Kentucky
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.

Haplo-Cord Transplantation for Blood Cancer
Chicago, Illinois
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.

Recombinant vWF Concentrate for Bleeding
Charlottesville, Virginia
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.

Sertraline for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder
Charlottesville, Virginia
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.

Genetic Testing for Bleeding Disorders
Toronto, Ontario
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).

Imatinib for Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome
Bethesda, Maryland
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.

Heating Pad for High Blood Pressure
Nashville, Tennessee
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.

Ischemic Conditioning for Stroke
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Stroke survivors have compromised vascular function which may contribute to secondary stroke risk, cardiovascular disease, and may limit their exercise tolerance. No studies have examined how femoral blood flow responds to both passive leg movement, a measure of microvascular function, as well as active leg contractions, a measure of the hyperemic response to exercise. Leg muscles with a reduced blood flow response to movement could be associated with decreased neuromuscular function, such as leg strength and fatigue. Preliminary data showing a single bout of ischemic conditioning may improve vascular function and muscle activation in healthy adults and individuals post-stroke. Therefore, the investigators want to examine if ischemic conditioning will also improve the blood flow response to passive leg movements as well as during single leg active contractions.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Blood Disorders 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 Disorders 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 Disorders 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 Disorders 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 Disorders 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 Disorders clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Mindfulness for Hypertension and Depression, Genetic Testing for Bleeding Disorders and Sertraline for Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder to the Power online platform.
