New York, New York
This study will compare the effects on cardiorespiratory fitness (CRF) of aerobic exercise in different amounts (number of minutes/session) over different periods of time (number of weeks). Aerobic exercise is physical activity of light-to-moderate intensity that uses the large muscle groups (muscles in your legs, buttocks, back, and chest) and can be performed for at least 10 minutes.
The researchers will study the effects of different exercise programs on how well the study participants' bodies use oxygen, how well their heart pumps blood, how well their lungs function, and how healthy their blood vessels are.

Exercise Therapy for Cerebellar Ataxia
New York, New York
Balance and aerobic training show promise as treatments for degenerative cerebellar diseases, but the neural effects of both training methods are unknown. The goal of this project is to evaluate how each training method impacts the brain, and particularly, the degenerating cerebellum. Various neuroimaging techniques will be used to accomplish this goal and test the hypothesis that balance training impacts brain structures outside the cerebellum whereas aerobic training causes more neuroplastic changes within the cerebellum.

Strength Training Intensity for Osteoporosis
Waterloo, Ontario
Osteoporosis is a bone disease that can result in fractures, disability and an increased risk of premature death. Exercise is recommended for fall and fracture prevention, but health care professionals often recommend walking or lower intensity community exercise classes, which may not be effective for building bone. Further, individuals with osteoporosis are often told to avoid lifting or moving in certain ways, which creates fear and activity avoidance. Conversely, research suggests that to stimulate bone, you need higher loads on bone, with either higher intensity resistance training or impact exercise - the types of things people with low bone mass are told to avoid. Our study will examine different types of exercise intensity and how they translate to building bone in people with low bone mineral density (BMD).

Aerobic Fitness for Heart Problems
South Burlington, Vermont
Hospitalization and treatment for cardiovascular disease is one of the main contributors to disability in older adults. Moderate intensity continuous aerobic and resistance training have been the cornerstone of cardiac rehabilitation (CR) for decades to remediate hospital-acquired functional deficits, but some groups receive less or minimal functional benefit from this training. The proposed studies seek to optimize recovery of aerobic fitness and physical function among older cardiac patients using a novel high intensity training regimen with the long-term goal of reducing subsequent disability and improving clinical outcomes.

Ketone Supplement + Whey Protein for Muscle Protein Synthesis
Montreal, Quebec
An acute bout of resistance exercise stimulates muscle protein synthesis (MPS) rates for up to 24-48 hours, supporting muscle growth and repair. To optimize the anabolic effects of resistance exercise, the provision of dietary amino acids (i.e., proteins) is essential. Dietary protein intake provides the body with necessary amounts of essential and non-essential amino acids, which represent the building blocks for muscle proteins, enhancing anabolic muscle growth. The ingestion of dietary protein, such as whey protein, is well established to stimulate an increase in the rate of protein synthesis in skeletal muscle following resistance exercise. Research has demonstrated a dose-dependent relationship between protein intake and MPS rate, with 25 grams being the optimal dose to maximally stimulate MPS rates in younger adults with excess protein oxidized as a fuel source.
Determining whether this maximally stimulated MPS response can be further heightened during post-exercise recovery using non-protein dietary factors is yet to be explored. Recently, it has been shown that novel orally ingested ketone body supplements can stimulate MPS rates in younger adults at rest.
Ketone bodies (β-OHB) are lipid- derived molecules normally produced under conditions of glucose deprivation (i.e., fasting/starvation, or a low carbohydrate 'ketogenic' diet). However, these orally ingested ketone supplements rapidly increase blood ketone levels without the need for dietary restriction6. In vitro research showed that the combination of leucine and ketone bodies stimulated a 2-fold increase in MPS, compared to the leucine group alone, indicating synergistic effects of protein and ketone bodies on MPS. However, the effect of ketone supplementation, with and without dietary protein co-ingestion, on MPS rate during post-exercise recovery is yet to be investigated. If ketone bodies can amplify the anabolic response to dietary protein, they may provide a novel approach to maximizing muscle adaptation during post-exercise recovery.
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to evaluate the effects of ketone monoester intake on postprandial muscle protein synthesis rates when consumed alone and when co-ingested with an optimal dose (25 g) of whey protein during recovery after resistance exercise compared to 1) an optimal dose of whey protein (25 g), and 2) a control flavored water. It is hypothesized that muscle protein synthesis rates will be stimulated following the ingestion of the ketone body beverage. Further, muscle protein synthesis rates will be further enhanced when the ketone-containing beverage and an optimal dose are taken together.

This study investigates how orally ingested exogenous ketone monoester supplements affect circulating hormone concentrations in healthy young adult males after a single session of resistance exercise. Resistance exercise is known to stimulate an acute increase in the circulating concentration of various hormones that are involved in the regulation of muscle mass, including testosterone, growth hormone (GH), and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1).
Recently, there has been growing interest in how nutritional supplements impact these natural hormone responses at rest. One such intervention is the oral ingestion of exogenous ketone body supplements. Ketone bodies (i.e., β-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB), acetoacetate (AcAc), and acetone) are naturally occurring compounds that are normally produced by the body during prolonged fasting/starvation, or in response to a "ketogenic" diet (a diet very high in fat and very low in carbohydrates). These ketone body supplements taken in the form of a ketone monoester can quickly raise blood ketone levels without needing to change your diet.
Recent research has shown that the ingestion of exogenous ketone supplements or following a 'ketogenic diet' can alter the concentration of certain hormones measured in blood samples at rest. However, the effects of ketone monoester intake on the exercise-induced elevation in circulating hormones is yet to be explored.
Therefore, the purpose of this study is to examine how elevated β-HB, induced via the ingestion of the ketone monoester (R)-3-hydroxybutyl-(R)-3-hydroxybutyrate, affects blood concentrations of various anabolic hormones, during post-exercise recovery in healthy young adult males, compared to a placebo drink (flavoured water).

Cold-Water Immersion for Sports Recovery
Montreal, Quebec
In order to optimize sports performance, high-level athletes are required to manage conflicting training objectives, which often result in periods of high-volume training. These athletes need to perform heavy resistance training sessions to promote physiological adaptations, which consequently induce fatigue. Yet, they need to minimize fatigue to perform subsequent high-quality training sessions often within the same day. To support these training endeavours, a high-quality dietary regimen and adequate protein consumption is deemed to be an essential component of an athlete's recovery plan, as it has been shown to support muscle recovery and reduce muscle inflammation following exercise. Indeed, current sports nutrition recommendations advocate for the consumption of dietary protein and carbohydrate after exercise to promote tissue repair and replenish muscle energy stores (glycogen). Additionally, previous research has shown how water immersion therapies post-exercise may alleviate fatigue and restore performance. However, little is known about how different temperatures, as well as timing of cold-water immersion can support performance recovery in a population of athletes adhering to contemporary post-exercise nutrition recommendations. The objective of this project is to investigate the effects of timing of cold-water immersion relative to exercise on performance recovery within the same day, as well as to investigate whether cold water immersion augments blood amino acid concentrations after exercise and protein intake.

Handgrip Training for High Blood Pressure
Boston, Massachusetts
The goal of this intervention is to compare the blood pressure response of young females and males to a single bout of static handgrip exercise before and after static handgrip training (4 weeks).
The main questions this study aims to answer are:
* Are the lowering blood pressure effects of static handgrip exercise training different between young females and males?
* Which factors explain the lowering blood pressure effects of static handgrip training and possible differences between sexes? Is it an improved blood vessel dilation? Is it a reduced stiffening of blood vessels? Is it a reduced fight or flight response resulting in a lower heart rate and blood pumped by the heart into the vessels? All the above?
* Which factors regulate blood pressure response during and immediately after a single bout of static handgrip exercise?
All participants will be asked to:
* Visit the laboratory to perform static handgrip exercise - first visit;
* Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to static handgrip exercise training or to a non-exercising phase, with each phase lasting four weeks. Participants will also complete the other condition (handgrip or no handgrip) after completing the first four-week condition
* Return to the laboratory after the completion of both static handgrip training and no training to perform the static handgrip exercise of the first visit.
The investigators will compare participants' blood pressure response to a single bout static of handgrip exercise after training to their own blood pressure response to the same bout of exercise after the non-training period.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Exercise Training 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 Exercise Training 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 Exercise Training 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 Exercise Training 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 Exercise Training 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 Exercise Training clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Remote Exercise Program for Rheumatoid Arthritis, Telerehabilitation for Lung Cancer and Power Exercise for Stroke to the Power online platform.
