Columbus, Ohio
This phase III trial studies how well active surveillance help doctors to monitor subjects with low risk germ cell tumors for recurrence after their tumor is removed. When the germ cell tumor has spread outside of the organ in which it developed, it is considered metastatic. Chemotherapy drugs, such as bleomycin, carboplatin, etoposide, and cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. The trial studies whether carboplatin or cisplatin is the preferred chemotherapy to use in treating metastatic standard risk germ cell tumors.

Genetic Testing-Directed Therapy for Pediatric Cancer
Columbus, Ohio
This Pediatric MATCH screening and multi-sub-study phase II trial studies how well treatment that is directed by genetic testing works in pediatric patients with solid tumors, non-Hodgkin lymphomas, or histiocytic disorders that have progressed following at least one line of standard systemic therapy and/or for which no standard treatment exists that has been shown to prolong survival. Genetic tests look at the unique genetic material (genes) of patients' tumor cells. Patients with genetic changes or abnormalities (mutations) may benefit more from treatment which targets their tumor's particular genetic mutation, and may help doctors plan better treatment for patients with solid tumors or non-Hodgkin lymphomas.

Adapted PARENT Model for Well Child Checkups
Columbus, Ohio
Parent-focused Redesign for Encounters, Newborns to Toddlers (PARENT) is a team-based approach to care that utilizes a community health worker in a health educator role ("Parent's Coach") to provide many of the Well-Child Care (WCC) services that children and families should receive, addresses specific needs faced by families in low-income communities, and decreases reliance on the clinician as the primary provider of WCC services. The model was developed in partnership with clinics and parents in low-income communities and previously tested among largely Latino, Medicaid-insured populations. The aims of this study are to (1) Adapt the PARENT intervention to meet the needs of a diverse, largely Black population of underserved families, (2) Determine the effect of adapted PARENT on receipt of nationally recommended preventive care services, emergency department utilization, and parent experiences of care, (3) Determine whether the effectiveness of adapted PARENT differs by family-level factors, (4) Explore parents' experiences in receiving adapted PARENT, (5) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT from the parent stakeholder perspective, (6) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT from the pediatric provider and clinic stakeholder perspective, and (7) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT on healthcare utilization, from the perspectives of parents and families.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the adapted PARENT model as compared to traditional guideline-based WCC and assess the patient-centered economic outcomes of the adapted PARENT model.

Web-Based Program for Teens with Epilepsy
Cincinnati, Ohio
The goal of this multi-site clinical trial is to determine the effectiveness of two components of a web-based intervention (Epilepsy Journey) to improve executive functioning in adolescents with epilepsy. The two components include web-based modules and problem-solving telehealth sessions with a therapist focused on executive functioning. This trial aims to answer the following questions:
1. Which components of Epilepsy Journey (web-based modules or telehealth sessions with a therapist) are essential for improving executive functioning in adolescents with epilepsy?
2. Which components of Epilepsy Journey (web-based modules or telehealth sessions with a therapist) are essential for improving quality of life in adolescents with epilepsy?
Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: 1) Epilepsy Journey web-based modules and telehealth sessions, 2) Epilepsy Journey web-based modules only, 3) telehealth sessions with a therapist only, or 4) treatment as usual.
Participants will:
* Independently review Epilepsy Journey web-based modules focused on executive functioning skills (\~15-30 minutes) and/or have weekly telehealth sessions (\~30-45 minutes) with a therapist for 14 weeks.
* Complete measures of executive functioning (parent and teen-report) and quality of life (teen-report) at the start of the study, 14-, 26-, and 66- weeks after randomization.

Early Steroid Treatment for Childhood Asthma
Cincinnati, Ohio
Asthma is the most common chronic disease of childhood and is a leading cause of emergency medical treatment. For children experiencing an asthma exacerbation, emergency department (ED) guidelines recommend early systemic corticosteroid (CS) administration, since studies have shown associated, time-sensitive, decreases in hospital admissions and ED length-of-stay (LOS). For patients who are treated by 911 emergency medical services (EMS) first, there exists an opportunity for even earlier administration of CS, prior to ED arrival. Yet, preliminary data demonstrate that currently less than 10% of EMS pediatric asthma patients receive CS prior to ED arrival.
Given the known time-sensitivity of CS' effects on patient outcomes, the investigators hypothesize that even earlier EMS administration of CS will decrease hospital admissions, ED LOS, and intensive care unit admissions for pediatric patients with an acute asthma exacerbation. Using a pragmatic observation design in multiple EMS agencies, we will enroll patients to analyze clinical outcomes and comparative costs of EMS CS administration, and how both are influenced by EMS transport time. That novel combination of analyses will help build evidence-based guidelines adaptable for diverse EMS agencies nationwide.

SMART@Home Digital Platform for Asthma Management
Cincinnati, Ohio
The proposed research addresses the limitations or lack of a digital platform to provide remote care of medically complex patients. Previous attempts have had poor clinical validity and suffered lack of patient engagement. The study team will deconstruct the previously implemented SMART platforms to create a roadmap, platform, and template to guide clinicians to create new tools.
Results from Phase 1 of this project highlighted the need for connectivity between the SMART@Home app and Bluetooth-enable devices to provide objective disease activity data as well as integration with Epic electronic health record so that providers can use the data to inform treatment planning and decision making. A subsequent pilot user validation trial is also needed to confirm development goals were met. Conducting a pilot user validation trial of the SMART@Home asthma tracker, spirometer, and action plan is the purpose of the next phases of this study.
A beta test the SMART@Home Asthma Tracker and asthma action plan algorithm will take place with approximately 8 participants. Beta testing will have participants record simulated increases in symptoms to ensure appropriate levels of care is communicated via the app. Then, a group of 40 adolescent (ages 12-17) patients with asthma for a 6-month pilot Randomized Control Trial (RCT). Participants will be randomized into either the IMAAP SMART@Home (n=20) or control (n=20) groups following the completion of baseline measures to test the interactive asthma action plan functionality and impact.

MIBG + Chemotherapy for Neuroblastoma
Cincinnati, Ohio
This pilot clinical trial studies induction therapy followed by iobenguane I 131 and chemotherapy in treating patients with newly diagnosed high-risk neuroblastoma undergoing stem cell transplant, radiation therapy, and maintenance therapy with isotretinoin. Radioisotope therapy, such as iobenguane I 131, releases radiation that kills tumor cells. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as carboplatin, etoposide phosphate, busulfan, and melphalan, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. A peripheral stem cell transplant may be able to replace blood-forming cells that are destroyed by iobenguane I 131 and chemotherapy. Giving radioisotope therapy, chemotherapy, and peripheral stem cell transplant may kill more tumor cells.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Childhood 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 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 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 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 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 clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Bimagrumab + Tirzepatide for Obesity with Type 2 Diabetes, RO7204239 + Tirzepatide for Obesity and Tirzepatide for Type 1 Diabetes and Obesity to the Power online platform.
