Mepolizumab for Chronic Cough

Hamilton, Ontario
Cough is the most common presenting symptom to family physician. Chronic Cough affects approximately 10-12% of the general population and is one of the commonest reasons for referral to secondary care. Unfortunately, there are no licensed treatments for this debilitating condition, which is associated with a poor quality of life, affecting the social, physical and psychological well-being of patients. The aim of this single-centre proof-of-concept study is to investigate whether mepolizumab reduces objective cough frequency in patients with eosinophilic asthma and non-asthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis presenting with chronic cough. Secondary outcomes including the effects on quality of life, the intensity of irritant sensations, airway hyper-reactivity and inflammatory cells and their progenitors will also be evaluated. The investigators hypothesize that in patients with asthma and non-asthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis, eosinophils are involved in sensitizing airway nerves and thereby increasing spontaneous objective coughs. The investigators predict that treatment with mepolizumab will reduce airway eosinophilia in patients with chronic cough due to eosinophilic asthma and non-asthmatic eosinophilic bronchitis, thereby causing a reduction in objective cough frequency.

Mechanical Insufflation for ALS

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn how doing mechanical insufflation (MI) using a mechanical insufflator-exsufflator (MI-E) device affects breathing in early amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). This will be a single-center, single-arm study of MI in 20 patients with ALS at Penn. Based on prior research, we believe that 6-months of MI may slow decline in cough strength, measured as peak cough flow (PCF). Participants will perform MI using a device designed for mechanical insufflation-exsufflation (MI-E) known as the BiWaze Cough system. The BiWaze Cough is used for mucus clearance . It is connected to tubing and mouthpiece (or mask). The device will use programmed pressure and timing settings. An insufflation includes inflating the lungs for a maximal size inhalation before exhaling. The daily routine for the device includes 5 sets of 5 insufflations twice daily. Researchers will compare how use of MI in early ALS affects peak cough flow compared to 20 subjects who did not use MI in early ALS.

Behavioral Cough Suppression Therapy for Chronic Cough

Atlanta, Georgia
This study is testing new ways to help people who have chronic cough that has not improved with typical treatments. One approach is called behavioral cough suppression (BCS) therapy, which teaches people techniques to stop themselves from coughing. Another approach uses capsaicin, the substance that makes chili peppers hot, to help reduce the body's sensitivity to cough triggers. In this study, we will test three treatments: * BCS therapy with capsaicin (BCS+CAP), * BCS therapy with a placebo (BCS+Sham), * Capsaicin stimulation alone (CAP). The investigators will enroll 150 adults with chronic cough and randomly assign them to one of the three treatments. Each person will attend 12 treatment sessions. The investigators want to find out how these treatments affect: * How sensitive someone is to things that make them cough, * How well they can hold back a cough when they try, * How their brain responds to things that cause an urge-to-cough, * And how much their coughing affects their quality of life. The investigators believe all treatments may reduce sensitivity to cough stimulants, but BCS treatments will also improve how people sense and control the urge to cough. The investigators think combining BCS with capsaicin will work the best overall.

Steroid Injection for Chronic Cough

Charleston, South Carolina
The primary goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that injecting steroid intramuscularly is an effective treatment for unexplained chronic cough. This will be achieved through the design of a prospective, placebo-controlled, single-blind, randomized clinical trial in which one group of patients will undergo a steroid injection into the deltoid muscle and the second group will undergo a placebo injection into the deltoid muscle. Data to determine if a clinically significant difference exists between the outcomes of the two groups will be measured by a dichotomous yes/no response to improvement, the Leicester Cough Questionnaire, and a visual analogue scale for symptom severity. This will provide the answer to the general question of whether or not the intramuscular injections are clinically effective for patients with unexplained chronic cough. Furthermore, any adverse reactions will be thoroughly documented. If this hypothesized treatment is proven effective, this can greatly improve the care of chronic cough patients by allowing for an evidence-based treatment option and a treatment option that may improve access to care. While the superior laryngeal nerve (SLN) injection is typically performed by fellowship trained laryngologists, intramuscular injections could be more widely utilized by general otolaryngologists or providers in other fields of medicine.

Duloxetine and Amitriptyline for Refractory Chronic Cough

Rochester, Minnesota
This trial is testing whether Amitriptyline and Duloxetine can help people who have a chronic cough that hasn't improved with other treatments. These medications are usually used for depression and anxiety but might also reduce coughing by changing how the brain processes signals. The study involves different doses to see which works best. Amitriptyline is an antidepressant used for various neurological conditions, including chronic cough, while Duloxetine is known for its efficacy in treating pain and anxiety symptoms.

Behavioral Therapy for Chronic Cough

Missoula, Montana
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of behavioral cough suppression therapy (BCST) in managing refractory chronic cough (RCC) within a group telehealth setting. RCC is a cough that has lasted at least 8 weeks and has not resolved with standard medical treatment. BCST is a research-based treatment provided by specialty-trained speech-language pathologists (SLPs) for patients with RCC. Although the treatment works very well for a large proportion of patients in a standard one-on-one format, there are a limited number of SLPs available to provide this treatment and patients living in rural areas do not typically have access to an SLP trained in BCST. If BCST can effectively be delivered in a group telehealth model, it would significantly improve accessibility to the treatment.

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 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."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Chronic Cough 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 Chronic Cough 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 Chronic Cough 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 Chronic Cough 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 Chronic Cough 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 Chronic Cough clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Behavioral Cough Suppression Therapy for Chronic Cough, Steroid Injection for Chronic Cough and Taplucainium for Chronic Cough to the Power online platform.
