The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether a health communication message (infographic about obstructive sleep apnea; OSA) seen by parents whose children have OSA symptoms will be helpful in identifying children with OSA. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Will parents who see this health communication message be more likely to talk to their child's health care provider about OSA? * Does the use of a health communication message help health care systems identify more children with OSA? Participants are parents and children who are patients in a specific health care center. As part of clinical care, parents will answer screening questions about OSA symptoms (e.g., snoring, sleepiness) before their child's primary care visit. If their child has OSA symptoms, the health care provider will receive an alert suggesting further evaluation and possible referral for a sleep study or to a specialist. In this study, children with OSA symptoms whose parents answer screening questions will be randomized to one of two conditions: 1) Health communication message (parent sees message before their child's visit with a primary care provider); or 2) Usual care (no information about OSA or their child's risk). Researchers will compare groups to see if the health communication message helps identify more children with OSA.

Retatrutide for Obesity

Indianapolis, Indiana
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of retatrutide in participants who have obesity or overweight (J1I-MC-GZBJ master protocol) including subsets of participants who have knee osteoarthritis (OA) (J1I-MC-GOA1) or who have obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) (J1I-MC-GSA1). This study will last about 89 weeks and will include up to 24 visits. Addendum (2) is optional and available to approximately 500 participants to continue treatment with retatrutide for up to an additional 24 weeks.

Steroids for Post-Tonsillectomy Pain

Charleston, South Carolina
This trial is testing if an oral steroid called dexamethasone can reduce pain and the need for narcotic painkillers in children after tonsil removal surgery. Dexamethasone helps by reducing inflammation and swelling, which can make recovery less painful. It has been shown to be effective in reducing postoperative pain, swelling, and other complications in various surgeries, including third molar extractions and rhinoplasty.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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 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."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Childhood Sleep Apnea 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 Childhood Sleep Apnea 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 Childhood Sleep Apnea 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 Childhood Sleep Apnea 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 Childhood Sleep Apnea 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 Childhood Sleep Apnea clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Hypoglossal Nerve Stimulation for Sleep Apnea in Down Syndrome, Methadone for Pediatric Tonsillectomy Pain and Soft Oral Appliance for Obstructive Sleep Apnea to the Power online platform.
