Nitrate Supplement for Long COVID

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Potential benefits of a nitrate-rich juice supplement to improve skeletal muscle function and associated physical capacity will be studied in patients with Long COVID. Consenting patients with Long-COVID will be randomized to receive Beet-It nitrate beverage group versus a nitrate-depleted placebo beverage. Both groups will receive physical therapy at the long COVID Clinic at VAPHS with therapeutic goals to improve strength, balance, inspiratory, and aerobic capabilities. Physical therapy will last for 2 weeks and include 2 or 3 sessions with a physical therapist a week depending on each individual's exercise tolerance. These sessions can take place on-site or at home (or a hybrid combination) All participants will undergo functional assessments and tissue assessments before and after the 14-day study intervention.

This study will use a form of intermittent fasting called time-restricted eating (TRE) where individuals consume ad libitum energy intake within a set window of time, commonly 8 hours, which induces a fasting window of 16 hours per day (i.e., 16:8 TRE). TRE could be an effective addition to cardiac rehabilitation as it has demonstrated cardiovascular health benefits and potential for synergy when combined with exercise training. This study will determine if TRE is a feasible and safe nutrition intervention during cardiac rehabilitation and if TRE improves the health benefits of cardiac rehabilitation compared to cardiac rehabilitation alone.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how a remotely monitored high-intensity interval training (REMM-HIIT) affects the cardiorespiratory fitness and physical function for patients planning to undergo stem cell transplantation. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is there a change in the participant's cardiorespiratory fitness level? Is there a change in the participant's physical function? Researchers will compare the REMM-HIIT program to a control group of participants who do not take part in the training program to see if REMM-HIIT helps improve stem cell transplantation outcomes. Participants will: * Complete cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) 4 times during the study * Do basic tests to measure physical function 6 times during the study * Answer questions about their life and how they are feeling 6 times during the study * Wear a device to keep track of step counts and heart rate daily * Keep a log of every time they exercise throughout the study * Optionally, provide blood and stool samples 6 times during the study

Exercise Training for Aging

Durham, North Carolina
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effects of aging on markers of physical reserve and exercise-induced adaptations in resilience in older adults who completed a structured exercise program within the last 15 years (Parent trial: STRRIDE-PD; NCT00962962). This feasibility pilot study will enroll up to 8 participants to complete a 6-month aerobic exercise intervention.

In this proposal, the investigators challenge the assumption that following the physical activity guidelines implies benefit for ALL adults, and that if benefit is not achieved in response to first line therapy, it will be by simply exercising more. Thus, for improving cardiorespiratory fitness and cardiometabolic risk factors, unanswered questions include: 1) To what extent, regardless of increasing exercise intensity or amount, is exercise not associated with benefit? Demonstration of a resistance to benefit through exercise in a substantial number of adults would be a novel and important finding, would counter the assumptions of many if not most health care practitioners, and could have immediate and direct application in all health care settings. 2) To what extent will non-responders to first line therapy (150 min/wk) be required to increase exercise intensity or amount to achieve benefit? 3) To what extent will failure to improve CRF segregate (be associate with) with cardiometabolic risk factors? The investigators propose that adults who remain exercise resistant for improvement in CRF and cardiometabolic risk despite increasing amount or intensity are at high risk of metabolic disease and consequently, are candidates for alternative treatment strategies.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of 12-months of individualized endurance-training (swimming, cycling and running) on physiological and psychological adaptations in exercise naïve individuals. Due to the potential seasonal changes that naturally occur in individuals across a year (even without training) the investigators will also compare the exercise-trained group to a time-aligned control group.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

"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

"As a healthy volunteer, I like to participate in as many trials as I'm able to. It's a good way to help research and earn money."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Cardiorespiratory Fitness 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 Cardiorespiratory Fitness 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 Cardiorespiratory Fitness 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 Cardiorespiratory Fitness 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 Cardiorespiratory Fitness 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 Cardiorespiratory Fitness clinical trials?

Most recently, we added High Intensity Interval Training for Bone Marrow Transplant, Exercise Training for Aging and Endurance Training for Healthy Individuals to the Power online platform.
