ACHIEVE-P4: PATHFINDER is a randomized, blinded clinical trial of portable air cleaners (PAC) provided at the time of hospital discharge to Heart Failure (HF) patients. It will be carried out at Henry Ford Hospitals. This project is part of the ACHIEVE GREATER (Addressing Cardiometabolic Health Inequities by Early PreVEntion in the GREAT LakEs Region) Center (IRB 100221MP2A), the purpose of which is to reduce cardiometabolic health disparities and downstream Black-White lifespan inequality. The ACHIEVE GREATER Center involves several separate but related projects that aim to mitigate health disparities in risk factor control for three chronic conditions, hypertension (HTN, Project 1), heart failure (HF, Project 2) and coronary heart disease (CHD, Project 3), which drive downstream lifespan inequality. The present study is Project 4 (Aim 1) a randomized clinical trial titled: Portable Air cleaners to Treat Heart Failure and Negate Disparities of Environment and Race (PATHFINDER), of the ACHIEVE GREATER Center.

This trial is testing if extra help with nutrition, including more dietary education and counseling, can improve recovery for patients who have just left the hospital. The goal is to see if this added support is more effective than the usual care alone.

This project is part of the ACHIEVE GREATER (Addressing Cardiometabolic Health Inequities by Early PreVEntion in the GREAT LakEs Region) Center (IRB 100221MP2A), the purpose of which is to reduce cardiometabolic health disparities and downstream Black-White lifespan inequality in two cities: Detroit, Michigan, and Cleveland, Ohio. The ACHIEVE GREATER Center will involve three separate but related projects that aim to mitigate health disparities in risk factor control for three chronic conditions, hypertension (HTN, Project 1), heart failure (HF, Project 2) and coronary heart disease (CHD, Project 3), which drive downstream lifespan inequality. All three projects will involve the use of Community Health Workers (CHWs) to deliver an evidence-based practice intervention program called PAL2. All three projects will also utilize the PAL2 Implementation Intervention (PAL2-II), which is a set of structured training and evaluation strategies designed to optimize CHW competence and adherence (i.e., fidelity) to the PAL2 intervention program. The present study is Project 2 of the ACHIEVE GREATER Center.

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of mortality in the US, accounting for 45% of all deaths. Chronic Heart Failure (CHF) is now understood to be a multi-system disease process involving not only the cardiovascular system but also the renal, neuroendocrine, and immune systems. No effective therapy is currently available to treat the most severe subset of CHF patients that have progressed to acute decompensated HF. An innovative approach to reduce the cardio-depressant effects associated with the chronic inflammatory state of CHF may provide a breakthrough for this disorder. This proposal will evaluate the safety and probable benefit to improve cardiac or renal function with an immunomodulatory device to bridge patients to Left Ventricular Assist Device (LVAD) implantation who were previously deemed ineligible for this life sustaining procedure. The Selective Cytopheretic Device (SCD) is an immuno-regulating, extracorporeal membrane device targeted to modulate the cardiodepressant effects assocaited with CHF. SCD is a platform technology focused on immunomodulation of acute and chronic inflammation associated with acute and chronic organ dysfunction. SCD membranes selectively sequester activated systemic leukocytes as they flow through the cartridge via an extracorporeal circuit. Pre-clinical results show that SCD treatment results in a 25% improvement in ejection fraction in a canine CHF model. This study will enroll 20 patients across 5 clinical sites to evaluate the safety and initial efficacy data of SCD treatment in this indication. Patients will receive 4-hour daily SCD treatment for 6 days, followed by 6 months of follow up.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I have gasteroparesis which causes me extreme bloating, pain, acid reflux, occasional vomiting, nausea, and constipation. Most standard medications have not helped. I did some research to learn about investigational drugs, which I'd be excited to get to access through a trial."

Gasteroparesis PatientAge: 38

"In December 2023 I had a stent placed in an artery. I was so glad that the blockage was found before I had either a heart attack, stroke, or both. I have been on Pravastatin for as long as I can remember but I continue to have elevated cholesterol levels. I'm trying to get ahead of my condition by learning more about the latest research and drugs available."

Hypercholesterolemia PatientAge: 57

"I have a known blockage developing in lower left main 50%, which my doctors are watching. We've considered surgery, but I'd like to rule out all possible other options first. I've done some research, which brought me to clinical trials."

PA
Artery Disease PatientAge: 64

"I've been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes since 2000. I was on the highest dose of metformin, which didn't work for me. In 2022, I tried Ozempic, which had bad side effects. I'm not currently on anything to treat my diabetes, given my experiences (as well as some insurance denials). I'm glad that clinical trials exist to help me try to access the latest research. I'm frustrated but also motivated."

PL
Diabetes PatientAge: 53

"My ejection fraction is now 20-25%, quite low. Trying to optimize my medications at this time. I have had Biventricular pacemaker/ICD since 2007. I am doing everything I can to improve my health. Following a diet, exercising 30 minutes every day. Most days my systolic blood pressure is < 100. I had a L/R Cath in December and do not have any problems with my coronary arteries. I'm hoping to learn more about the latest research and drugs by participating in a trial. "

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 Heart Failure 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 Heart Failure 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 Heart Failure 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 Heart Failure 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 Heart Failure 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 Heart Failure clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Health Coaching for Cardiovascular Disease, Selective Cytopheretic Device for Cardiorenal Syndrome and CDR132L for Heart Failure to the Power online platform.
