There is limited information on what causes injury to the heart in individuals with Sickle Cell Disease (SCD). Researchers in this study want to see if decreased blood flow to the heart during stress could be causing the heart damage seen in SCD patients. They also want to test people who don't have SCD to see if their hearts react the same way under stress. Primary Objective * To estimate the coronary flow reserve (CFR) (also referred to as myocardial perfusion reserve), as measured by PET stress-rest myocardial perfusion imaging, in SCD patients with and without diastolic dysfunction, and healthy controls. Secondary Objectives * To investigate the relationship between decreased CFR (quantified with PET stress- rest myocardial perfusion imaging) and presence of abnormal diastolic parameters

LCZ 696 for Type 2 Diabetes

Rochester, Minnesota
This study will advance the investigator's knowledge of the integrated cardiorenal and humoral physiology in type 2 diabetic patients with and without pre-clinical diastolic dysfunction, and test a novel therapeutic strategy which may prevent a progression to symptomatic Stage C heart failure

80 Participants Needed

The goal of this study is to test the feasibility of guiding as-needed pharmacological rate control of atrial fibrillation (AF) by implantable cardiac monitors and to assess the impact of continuous beta-blocker therapy versus as-needed rate control on the following outcomes: (1) exercise capacity, (2) AF burden, (3) symptomatic heart failure, (4) biomarker assessment of cardiac filling pressures and cardio-metabolic health, and (5) quality of life in patients with atrial fibrillation and stage II or III heart failure with preserved ejection fraction.

This trial tests if a broccoli extract called Sulforaphane can help older adults with a certain type of heart failure. The extract may protect the heart by reducing damage and inflammation. Sulforaphane is a compound derived from vegetables like broccoli, known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties.

In this pilot study, the investigators will determine whether supplementation with a mitochondrial-targeted antioxidant (Mitoquinone (MitoQ)) improves mitochondrial function, left ventricular diastolic and vascular function.

The heart is a pump that must both fill and empty effectively to move blood; if it cannot move enough, heart failure may ensue. Approximately half of all adults living with heart failure have a form where the heart stiffens, which impairs its ability to fill. This form of heart failure particularly affects females and older adults. When people exercise, extra blood returns to the heart. The healthy heart can easily fill and move this extra blood to the muscles. However, when the heart's ability to fill is impaired, the extra blood can back up and pool in the lungs. Blood pooling in the lungs makes people feel breathless, although the investigators do not fully understand why, and this form of heart failure has a high risk of hospitalization and death, but few effective treatments are available. Exercise is one of the few treatments that works well if enough exercise is performed regularly. However, many people with this form of heart failure can only tolerate a small amount before stopping due to severe breathlessness, which can put them off from exercising regularly. The study's goal is to help these people perform more exercise. The investigators will use a novel form of stationary cycling with a plastic chamber around the lower body that seals at the waist. The chamber can apply suction to the lower body during exercise which will reduce how much extra blood returns and prevent the heart and lungs from being overloaded. Participants will attend 5 visits, including 3 where they will perform a submaximal exercise test for as many minutes as possible with or without light suction. In each of these tests, the investigators will record how long they exercise and ask them to rate how breathless they feel. The investigators will also study their breathing pattern, using a mouthpiece and pressure sensor, and heart function, using ultrasound imaging. This work will help adults living with heart failure exercise more and improve their health, and help researchers understand what causes breathlessness and develop new treatments.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

"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."

WR
Obesity PatientAge: 58

"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."

IZ

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

HZ
Arthritis PatientAge: 78

"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."

Why We Started Power

We started Power when my dad was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, and I struggled to help him access the latest immunotherapy. Hopefully Power makes it simpler for you to explore promising new treatments, during what is probably a difficult time.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Diastolic Dysfunction 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 Diastolic Dysfunction 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 Diastolic Dysfunction 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 Diastolic Dysfunction 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 Diastolic Dysfunction 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 Diastolic Dysfunction clinical trials?

Most recently, we added PET Imaging for Heart Function in Sickle Cell Disease, Beta-Blockers for Atrial Fibrillation and Heart Failure and Lower-body Negative Pressure Exercise for Heart Failure to the Power online platform.
