Pain Management for Cancer Surgery

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
This is a research study to evaluate the effectiveness of 3 different types of routine pain management regimens used during clinically indicated, minimally invasive oncologic (cancer) surgery. This project is considered "Research" and participation is voluntary. Upon enrollment in this study, the research team will collect data from the patient's medical records. The patient will undergo all of the normal testing and procedures required pre-operatively (standard of care). The study team will then randomly assign the patient (like a flip of a coin) to one of three different study arms for pain management during surgery: 1. Laparoscopic Transversus Abdominis Plane Block (LapTAP) with Local Anesthetic (LA) 2. Laparoscopic Transversus Abdominis Plane Block (LapTAP) only 3. Local Anesthetic (LA) only The patient will receive standard pre- and post-operative care according to clinical guidelines (routine care). The study team will collect information from the patient's medical record for the first 24 hours after their surgery and upon discharge. This information will include pain scores, amount of medication required, any side effects the patient may have experienced, and satisfaction with pain control. Participation in the study will end upon discharge from the hospital.

The goal of this clinical trial is to test whether it is necessary to decompress the stomach during gynecologic laparoscopy. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Is there appropriate visualization during surgery without stomach decompression? * Can the surgeon tell the stomach is decompressed? * Is the stomach at risk for injury during surgery? * How is the patient's postoperative experience affected? Participants will undergo their planned surgery as usual and will be asked to complete log about their recovery for the first week after surgery. Researchers will compare patients who have their stomach decompressed during surgery to those who do not undergo stomach decompression to see if it is necessary.

Background: Tumors that have spread to the lining of the abdomen from other cancers, such as cancer of the appendix, colon, or ovary, are called peritoneal carcinomatosis. In most cases, outcomes are poor. Researchers want to test a new treatment. Objective: To learn if the combination of oral nilotinib plus paclitaxel given by IV and directly into the abdomen can reduce tumors enough for people to have surgery. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 and older with peritoneal carcinomatosis that is too widespread for surgery. Design: Participants will be screened with: Physical exam Medical history Blood and urine tests Electrocardiogram Laparoscopy. They will get general anesthesia. Small cuts will be made in their abdomen. Tissue and fluid samples will be taken. Surveys about their health CT scans of their torso Participants will have up to 4 more laparoscopies. During the first procedure, a port will be placed under the skin of their abdomen (an IP port). It will be attached to a catheter that is placed in their abdomen. Participants will get treatment in 3-week cycles, for 3 or 6 cycles. They will take nilotinib by mouth twice daily. They will get paclitaxel by IP port (once per cycle) and by IV (twice per cycle). After cycles 3 and 6, they will have a laparoscopy and CT scans. Then they may take nilotinib and get IV paclitaxel for up to 1 year. At study visits, participants will repeat some screening tests. About 6 weeks after treatment ends and then every 3 months for 3 years, participants will have follow-up visits at NIH or with their local doctor.

The goal of this pilot study is to learn if a class and hands-on-practice of ergonomic body positions - or specific ways to move the body while working to prevent injury - is valuable to training obstetrics and gynecology doctors. The main questions the study team aims to answer are: * Will these lessons successfully teach the participants how to move bodies at work in a way that will prevent injury? * Will the participants feel that learning and practicing such lessons helps to avoid injury while at work? Researchers will compare training obstetrics and gynecology doctors that attend a class on ergonomics and have guided hands-on-practice of ergonomic body positions with training obstetrics and gynecology doctors that attend the class only to see if the first group learns and remembers how to move their bodies safely while working. All participants will attend a class that teaches basic ergonomic lessons before they are divided into two groups. Group 1 will practice common surgery skills on a model while being videotaped by an artificial intelligence application. The application will make a report on unsafe positions a participant does while practicing surgical skills. The Group 1 participant will then go over the report with one of the study supervisors to talk about ways that the participant can move safely while practicing the skills. The participant will then practice the skills one more time while being videotaped. The study supervisors will then compare the two reports to see if the participant improved. Group 2 will also practice common surgery skills on a model while being videotaped. Group 2 participants will not get to see the report that the application generates or speak with the study supervisors about ways to move safely while practicing the skills. There will be a follow up after two months to see if participants remembered what was learned during the class and during the hands-on practice lesson. All participants will again be videotaped. The study supervisors will compare the videos and reports from the last class to the most recent ones to see if the participants learned and remember how to move safely while working. Participants in both groups will take a quiz about the lessons learned in the class before and after the class to determine what had been learned from the lesson. A survey about how useful and helpful the class was and hands-on practice sessions were will also be completed.

We hypothesize that instilling intraperitoneal Marcaine (without epinephrine) at the end of a non-total laparoscopic gynecologic surgery (adnexa only, which includes the ovaries, fallopian tubes, and associated ligaments, vessels, and connective tissue) will result in less pain and reduced opioid use postoperatively.

Acetaminophen (Tylenol) is a commonly used medication after surgery to control pain. Tablets for oral use and suppositories for rectal use are the most frequently employed forms of acetaminophen after surgery. Intravenous (IV) acetaminophen is widely used in several countries but is not a standard medication for the adult population in Canada. It is mainly considered when it is impossible to take medication in tablet or suppository form. Opioids (Morphine, Hydromorphone, Oxycodone, etc.) are another class of medications commonly used after surgery for pain management. While they are generally very effective and stronger than acetaminophen or other pain relievers (e.g., ibuprofen/Advil), reducing their use is preferable, as they can cause various side effects such as nausea, dizziness, and dependence. IV acetaminophen may help control pain while also reducing opioid consumption. However, there are few high-quality scientific studies proving the benefits of IV acetaminophen compared to other forms, such as tablets or suppositories. Acetaminophen has been available in Canada for many years and has already been recommended for use in Quebec by the Institut national d'excellence en santé et services sociaux (INESSS) under certain conditions. This study aims to validate its benefits with clear data.

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to assess recovery in patients undergoing benign laparoscopic gynecologic surgery. The main question it aims to answer is: do liberalized postoperative restrictions improve patient recovery after laparoscopic gynecologic surgery? Researchers will compare postoperative recovery surveys from the control group (patients given standard postoperative restrictions limiting activity for 2 weeks) to the research group (patients given liberalized postoperative instructions allowing them to engage in their normal activities of daily life at their own discretion without prescribed activity restrictions) to see if liberalized postoperative restrictions improve the recovery experience. Participants will be asked to fill out a brief questionnaire at two time intervals, 1 week after surgery and 2 weeks after surgery.

Steep Trendelenburg positioning and insufflation of the abdominal cavity have shown to increase intra ocular pressure. Different anesthetic techniques can alter intra ocular pressure and a small pilot study showed decrease in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in robotic case in steep Trendelenburg with IV anesthetics (TIVA). We want to quantify the degree of change in Intraocular Pressure (IOP) in female patients undergoing robotic procedures for cancer. We want to detect the difference in increase of pressure with total IV anesthesia versus conventional balanced anesthesia

Enhanced Vitals Monitoring for Surgery

Vancouver, British Columbia
The aim of this clinical trial is to examine the feasibility of an enhanced vital sign monitoring solution in-hospital and at-home. This study includes adult patients undergoing inpatient medium- to high-risk vascular or abdominal surgery. Researchers will compare the enhanced vitals monitoring group to the standard of care group to see if it may change post-operative management and outcomes. The primary question it aims to answer is if enhanced monitoring of surgical patient vitals can increase the number of days at home alive in the first 30 days after surgery. Participants in the intervention group will test two vitals monitoring devices, one in the hospital and one at home. They will also be asked to complete several questionnaires and a follow up phone call.

Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 38

"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."

FF
ADHD PatientAge: 31

"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 Gynecologic Surgery 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 Gynecologic Surgery 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 Gynecologic Surgery 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 Gynecologic Surgery 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 Gynecologic Surgery 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 Gynecologic Surgery clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Intravenous Acetaminophen for Pain Management, Postoperative Care for Minimally Invasive Gynecologic Surgery and Marcaine for Pain After Ovarian Cyst Removal to the Power online platform.
