Learn More About PowerVirtual Reality for Acute Pain in Children
Columbus, Ohio
The objective of this study is to develop central nervous system (CNS) biomarkers of pain experienced during medical procedures and pain relief induced by Virtual Reality Pain Alleviation Therapy (VR-PAT). The study team plans to use innovative functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to identify and quantify the targeted CNS biomarkers. The ultimate goal of this project is to optimize the CNS biomarkers for predicting and/or monitoring response to virtual reality (VR)-based pain reduction approaches for pain management in clinical trials.
20 healthy children will be recruited for a 1-hour research visit where they will wear a blood pressure cuff to simulate pain and an fNIRS neuroimaging device while playing an immersive/engaging VR game, a passive VR video, and an iPad game.

HIIT + Mindfulness for Healthy Children
Royal Center, Indiana
The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to learn about the effect of a 12-week school-based intervention combining mindfulness with high-intensity interval training (MF-HIIT), MF-only intervention, and HIIT-only intervention in relative to sedentary activities on executive function (EF) in 8-12 years old children. The main question it aims to answer is whether a 12-week school-based MF-HIIT intervention has larger beneficial effect on EF performance than that following a 12-week school-based MF-only and HIIT-only in relative to the sedentary activities.
Multiple cohorts of participants will be recruited to participate this one-semester study, including the pretest, intervention, and posttest phases.
During the pretest phase, participants an their parents will complete the following
1. Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (KBIT) to assess intelligence quotient
2. Fitnessgram test to assess aerobic capacity, muscle endurance, flexibility, and body mass index
3. Child and Adolescent Mindfulness Measure (CAMM) questionnaire to assess dispositional mindfulness
4. Computerized tasks to assess EF
5. Parent-reported demographic and health information
Following the pretest phase, participants will receive the 12-week classroom-based intervention, with the classroom as the intervention unit.
Following the intervention and during the posttest phase, participants will complete the fitness, measures, EF measures, and dispositional mindfulness measure again.
Researcher will compare the EFn outcome measures following the MF-HIIT, MF-only, and HIIT-only interventions with the sedentary activity intervention to see if MF and HIIT has beneficial effects on children's EF.
Further, researcher will compare the EF measures following the MF-HIIT compared with MF-only and HIIT-only interventions to see if combining MF with HIIT has greater beneficial effects on children's EF than MF and HIIT alone.

Mindfulness and HIIT for Executive Function in Children
West Lafayette, Indiana
The goal of this randomized cross-over trial is to learn about the effect of a single bout of 20-min mindfulness-based high-intensity interval training (MF-HIIT), MF-only, and HIIT-only in relative to sitting rest on executive function (EF) in 10-12 years old children. The main question it aims to answer are:
Question 1: Whether a single bout of 20-min MF-HIIT has larger beneficial effect on EF performance than that following a 20-min session of MF-only and HIIT-only in relative to the sitting rest
Question 2: Whether a single bout of 20-min MF-HIIT has a larger beneficial effect on brain functioning, as measured by the N2 and P3 components of event-related potential (ER) during EF performance than that following a 20-min session of MF-only and HIIT-only in relative to the sitting rest
Participants will visit the laboratory on 5 separate days (\> 2-day washout between days) in which they have not previously participated in structured physical activities.
Participants will complete the testing and/or receive treatments below:
Day 1:
* Kaufman Brief Intelligence Test (KBIT) to assess intelligence quotient
* Treadmill-based exercise test to measure cardiorespiratory fitness (maximum oxygen consumption)
Days 2-5
* Each day, participants will complete each of the four intervention conditions (MF-HIIT, MF-only, HIIT-only, sitting)
* Participants' heart rate and self-reported affect and rating of physical exertion will be measured
* Participants will complete a modified flanker task and a task-switching task to assess inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility
* Participants will wear an EEG cap to measure the N2 and P3 components of the event-related potential during the inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility performance
Researcher will compare the cognitive outcome measures following the MF-HIIT, MF-only, and HIIT-only conditions with the sitting condition to see if MF and HIIT has beneficial effects on children's EF.
Further, researcher will compare the cognitive outcome measures following the MF-HIIT compared with MF-only and HIIT-only conditions to see if combining MF with HIIT has greater beneficial effects on children's EF than MF and HIIT alone.

Nutrition and Counseling for Type 1 Diabetes
Hershey, Pennsylvania
The purpose of this research study is to investigate the effects of a combination of weekly distribution of healthy foods and intensive nutrition counseling as complementary therapies to the standard insulin therapy in children with new diagnosis of stage 3 type 1 diabetes (T1D). Feasibility, acceptability, and fidelity of this intervention will be measured. We will also explore the likelihood of prolonging the honeymoon phase of T1D in the intervention study group. Comparisons will be made between this combined nutrition intervention and free healthy foods vs. current standard nutrition counseling. Both study groups will receive standard of care treatment for T1D (insulin therapy).
The results of this study could inform future research that will ultimately lead to design of a larger clinical trial testing implementation of novel medical nutrition therapies for children newly diagnosed with stage 3 of T1D, and may lead to prolongation of the honeymoon phase. The overall goal is to promote the beta cell function survival and to reduce the progression to stage 4 of T1D.

HomeStyles-2 Program for Childhood Obesity
New Brunswick, New Jersey
Parents are children's primary role models, are food and physical activity gatekeepers, and create the structure/lifestyle environment within the home. Thus, parents strongly influence children's weight-related behaviors and have the opportunity to cultivate a "culture of health" within the home. Yet, there continues to be a dearth of evidence-based obesity prevention intervention programs, especially for families with children aged 6 to 11 years, commonly called the middle childhood years. The aim of the HomeStyles-2 online learning mode RCT is to determine whether this novel, age-appropriate, family intervention enables and motivates parents to shape their home environments and weight-related lifestyle practices (i.e., diet, exercise, sleep) to be more supportive of optimal health and reduced risk of obesity in their middle childhood youth more than those in the control condition. The RCT will include the experimental group and an attention control group who will engage in a bona fide concurrent treatment different in subject matter but equal in nonspecific treatment effects. The participants will be families with school-age children who are systematically randomly assigned by computer to study condition. The HomeStyles intervention is predicated on the social cognitive theory and a social ecological framework. The RCT will collect sociodemographic characteristics of the participant, child, and partner/spouse; child and parent health status; parent weight-related cognitions; weight-related behaviors of the parent and child; and weight-related characteristics of the home environment. Enrollment for this study will begin mid-2021.This paper describes these aspects of the HomeStyles-2 intervention: rationale; sample eligibility criteria and recruitment; study design; experimental group intervention theoretical and philosophical underpinnings, structure, content, and development process; attention control intervention; survey instrument development and components; outcome measures; and planned analyses.

Vitamin A for Vaccine Response Enhancement
Memphis, Tennessee
Streptococcus pneumoniae, commonly called pneumococcus, can cause a wide range of diseases in children from mild ear infections to deadly pneumonia or meningitis. Vaccination is currently the single best way to protect children. Nutrition, especially the amount of vitamin A, may play a role in how well your body responds to infection or a vaccine. We call this an immune response. This research will look to see if children who take a vitamin with their vaccine have a better immune response than children who do not take a vitamin with their vaccine.
Primary Objective
To evaluate the influence of vitamin A supplementation on Prevnar vaccine immunogenicity based on changes in antibody scores in a commercial ELISA at Day 21 (after a booster vaccine dose) compared to pre-vaccine values.
Secondary Objectives
* To evaluate the relationship between baseline vitamin levels and pneumococcal or hepatitis A vaccine antibody responses (based on in commercial ELISAs) at Days 0 and 21.
* To evaluate the influence of vitamin A supplementation on hepatitis vaccine immunogenicity based on changes in antibody scores in a commercial ELISA at Day 21 compared to pre-vaccine values.
* To evaluate relationships between total serum antibodies (based on individual IgM, IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, and IgA scores in a Luminex assay) at Day 0 and changes between Days 0 and 21 with baseline (Day 0) vitamin levels in young children, and with vitamin A supplementation.

Family-Based Healthy Eating Interventions for Southeast Asian Children
Providence, Rhode Island
This small scale healthy eating study provides Southeast Asian families with children ages 6 to 11 with a family-based nutrition education, one-on-one interviews to help with motivation to eat health, text messaging, and coupons to purchase health foods and beverages. Since this is a small scale study that is a pilot intervention, the main goal of this intervention is to determine if it is feasible, meaning, can it be done. The second goal of this intervention is to determine if there are meaningful improvements in children's healthy eating patterns, body mass index and HbA1c. The third goal is to see if the intervention improves parent's diet quality, HbA1c and the home food environment. These study findings will be used to determine whether a larger clinical trial is needed, and if so, how it should be done.

Adapted PARENT Model for Well Child Checkups
Columbus, Ohio
Parent-focused Redesign for Encounters, Newborns to Toddlers (PARENT) is a team-based approach to care that utilizes a community health worker in a health educator role ("Parent's Coach") to provide many of the Well-Child Care (WCC) services that children and families should receive, addresses specific needs faced by families in low-income communities, and decreases reliance on the clinician as the primary provider of WCC services. The model was developed in partnership with clinics and parents in low-income communities and previously tested among largely Latino, Medicaid-insured populations. The aims of this study are to (1) Adapt the PARENT intervention to meet the needs of a diverse, largely Black population of underserved families, (2) Determine the effect of adapted PARENT on receipt of nationally recommended preventive care services, emergency department utilization, and parent experiences of care, (3) Determine whether the effectiveness of adapted PARENT differs by family-level factors, (4) Explore parents' experiences in receiving adapted PARENT, (5) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT from the parent stakeholder perspective, (6) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT from the pediatric provider and clinic stakeholder perspective, and (7) Examine the economic impact of adapted PARENT on healthcare utilization, from the perspectives of parents and families.
This study will evaluate the effectiveness of the adapted PARENT model as compared to traditional guideline-based WCC and assess the patient-centered economic outcomes of the adapted PARENT model.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Healthy Children 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 Healthy Children 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 Healthy Children 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 Healthy Children 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 Healthy Children 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 Healthy Children clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Sleep Promotion Intervention for Childhood Sleep Issues, Emergency Care Action Plan for Infant Health and Project Support for Parent-Child Relationship to the Power online platform.
