To test the hypothesis that early exclusive enteral nutrition with the minimal use of parenteral nutrition will improve preterm infants' nutritional outcomes when compared to delayed progression of enteral nutrition and prolonged use of parenteral nutrition.

Blenderized diets consist of a wide range of table foods such as fruits, vegetables, meat and legumes, pureed in a blender and administered via gastrostomy tube. In a recent study, the investigators reported that children receiving blenderized feeds via gastrostomy had fewer total admissions and respiratory admissions, total emergency room visits, and improved gastrointestinal symptom scores compared to those fed formula. The goal of this project is to understand how these diets affect gastroesophageal reflux burden.

The purpose of this study is to determine whether modifying the timing of nutrition support from overnight to daytime enhances sleep quality, preserves circadian rhythms, and improves overall inflammation and cardiometabolic profiles in postoperative patients in the cardiac surgical ICU on enteral nutrition.

Enteral Nutrition Formula for ALS

Fort Lauderdale, Florida
The main objective of the proposed study is to evaluate if oral intake of EN formula preceding Gtube placement will impact tolerance upon placement and feeding via Gtube in pALS. This single arm intervention study all participants will receive the intervention and researchers will utilize validated indicators combined with clinical expertise to assess gastrointestinal symptoms of feeding intolerance before and after the intervention. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Wil participants meeting a greater percentage of their estimated nutritional needs at baseline present a slower disease progression rate and a lower incidence of GI symptoms of feeding intolerance when feeding via Gtube? 2. Will there be significant change in feeding intolerance when oral intake of enteral nutrition formula precedes feeding via Gtube? This proposed study consists of three stages, as follows: 1. Pre-Intervention: The lead in period of one-week preceding intervention phase I will be timed to initiate 3 weeks before the scheduled Gtube placement procedure. Patients will be advised to maintain their usual food and beverage intake. Dietary intake and GI symptoms data will be collected by research personnel. 2. Phase I: Dietary intake data collected from the pre-intervention stage will be averaged and used to determine the number of cartons of enteral nutrition formula needed to meet the participants estimated nutritional needs. For two weeks +- 2 days participants will be directed to drink the number of cartons of a pre-selected enteral nutrition formula to meet their estimated nutritional needs when combined to their current oral dietary intake. A plant based EN formula (Kate Farms 1.4 Standard) commonly prescribed for pALS was selected to be provided to all patients in the study to keep this variable constant. Weekly data collection of dietary intake and GI symptoms will be ongoing. 3. Phase II: At the end of phase I, patients will undergo a Gtube placement at their selected medical facility. For the following two weeks +- 2 days participants will be directed to feed via Gtube the same number of cartons of the enteral nutrition formula used orally on phase I and make no changes to their current oral intake.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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'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."

"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."

"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."

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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance 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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance 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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance 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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance 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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance 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 Enteral Feeding Intolerance clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Enteral Nutrition Formula for ALS, Early Human Milk Fortification for Premature Infants and Nutrition Timing for Sleep Disruption in ICU Patients to the Power online platform.
