Antibiotics for Protecting Gut Bacteria During Stem Cell Transplant

Hackensack, New Jersey
The purpose of this study is to see how different antibiotics affect the community of friendly bacteria existing in the intestinal tract (gut). Under normal circumstances, these friendly bacteria are not harmful and they help with normal bodily functions such as digestion. When these bacteria are absent, several complications may occur, such as infections with harmful bacteria or other inflammatory reactions, that can complicate the stem cell transplant course. Treatment with antibiotics or chemotherapy is known to kill off these friendly bacteria. In this study we compare the effects of different antibiotics on the community of friendly bacteria in the gut. For microbiota-related biomarker analysis, optional urine samples (MSKCC patients only) will be collected at baseline, 7 +/-2 days after initiation of antibiotic therapy, and on post-transplant days +28, +56 and +100 (+/- 7days).

Warm Water Immersion for Temperature Regulation in Aging

Ottawa, Ontario
As overheating in buildings is expected to increase as global warming continues, proactive measures to increase heat resiliency in heat-vulnerable older people are needed, especially for those without access to home cooling or reliable sources of electricity. While short-term heat acclimation through exercise in the heat has been shown to increase heat dissipation and decrease both the physical and mental stress imposed on individuals exposed to heat, such protocols are not tenable for older, sedentary adults. A recent report showed that seven consecutive days of warm-water immersion improved whole-body heat loss and reduced physiological strain as assessed during an exercise-heat stress in habitually active older men This represents a critical finding as an increase heat-loss capacity would serve as an important safeguard for older adults exposed to indoor overheating due to lack of air-conditioning. While this preliminary data highlights passive hot water immersion as a promising strategy for increasing heat-resilience in vulnerable adults, work is needed to confirm its efficacy in more "real-world" environments. Thus, this study aims to assess the effectiveness of a 7-day passive heating (warm-water immersion with core temperature clamped at \~38.5°C for the final 60 minutes) protocol in mitigating increases in thermal and cardiovascular strain in older females exposed to daylong (10-hours) indoor overheating (36°C, 45% relative humidity) prior to and following the passive heating intervention. Relative to males, females have a reduced heat loss capacity (\~5%), which is driven by differences in the activation of heat loss responses (i.e., skin blood flow and sweating). Although there have been mixed findings with regards to the influence of sex as a mediating factor for heat-related mortality, some studies suggest that females are at a higher risk of heat-related mortality and morbidity compared to males, especially amongst older individuals (≥65 years). Notably, a greater proportion of older females died compared to their male counterparts during the 2021 Western Heat Dome. While the underlying causes for these differences remain unclear, greater cardiovascular strain may place females at higher mortality risk during extreme heat.

Cooling Strategies for Heat Stress

Ottawa, Ontario
Occupational heat stress directly threatens workers' ability to live healthy and productive lives. Heat exposed workers are at an elevated risk of experiencing impaired work performance and cognitive function leading to a greater risk of work-related injuries which includes traumatic injury and a myriad of pathophysiological conditions (e.g., heat stroke, acute kidney injury, adverse cardiovascular events). To mitigate the adverse health effects of occupational heat stress, safety organizations recommend upper limits for heat stress, typically defined by a worker's metabolic rate and the prevailing wet-bulb globe temperature (WBGT). In instances where the heat load created by the combination of work intensity, environment, and clothing worn exceed the upper heat stress limits (uncompensable heat stress), controls such as rest breaks are prescribed to limit increases in core temperature beyond recommended limits. While workers are encouraged to find shelter from the heat during a rest break, it is not always possible or feasible. Typically, workers may rest while remaining exposed to the heat, recover in a shaded area or rest in an air-conditioned room or vehicle. However, the effectiveness of these cooling strategies in mitigating the level of physiological strain experienced by the worker during prolonged work in a hot environment remains unclear. In this project, the investigators will assess the efficacy of the different cooling strategies in preventing excursions in core temperature beyond recommended limits (38.0°C) following the initial stay time for moderate-intensity work in hot ambient conditions (WBGT of 29°C; represents hot outdoor conditions experienced by workers in summers in Ontario, Canada) in context of the prescribed American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) work-to-rest allocation for unacclimated adults. On three separate days, participants will walk on a treadmill at a fixed metabolic rate of 200 W/m2 until core temperature reaches and/or exceeds 38.0°C or until volitional fatigue. Thereafter, participants will complete an additional 180 min work bout employing the recommended ACGIH work-to-rest allocation of 1:3 (starting with a 45 min rest break followed by a 15 min work bout, with the cycle repeated three times over the 180 min work simulation bout) without (Control) or with cooling mitigation during each 15-min break consisting of either: i) partial cooling equivalent to sitting in a shaded space (WBGT 24°C; 31.7°C and 35% RH) such as under a tree with a light breeze (simulated with pedestal fan fixed at \~2 m/s) or ii) full cooling equivalent to sitting in air-conditioned space (e.g., room or vehicle) maintained at 22°C and 35% RH (equivalent WBGT of 16°C).

Simulated Indoor Overheating for Heat Stress

Ottawa, Ontario
Laboratory-based studies show that exposure to high humidity can worsen the effects of heat stress in young and older adults by impeding sweat evaporation - the main mechanism by which the human body cools itself. At high levels of humidity, the efficiency of sweating decreases causing a greater rise core temperature and burden on the cardiovascular system. In this context, increasing temperatures and humidity with climate change thus pose a potential compound risk for human health. While humidity's role in heat-health outcomes could substantially alter projections of health burdens from climate change, the impact of humidity on physiological strain in vulnerable people in relation to the indoor environment has yet to be evaluated. In a recent study delineating the physiological effects of the proposed 26°C indoor upper limit (PMID: 38329752), relative humidity was set to 45% in all conditions based on indoor humidity standards by the American Society of Heating and Air-Conditioning Engineers. However, it is unknown whether a refinement of the recommended indoor temperature limit of 26°C is required in situations where humidity cannot be maintained at this level. On separate occasions, the investigators will assess the change in body temperature and cardiovascular strain in older adults (65-85 years) exposed for 10 hours at the recommended indoor temperature limit of 26°C and 45% relative humidity (equivalent humidex of 29 (considered comfortable)) (experimental condition A), to 26°C with a relative humidity of 15% (equivalent humidex of 23 (considered comfortable); humidex is used to measure the perceived temperature taking into account the humidity)) (experimental condition B), to 26°C with a relative humidity of 85% (equivalent humidex of 37 (considered somewhat uncomfortable)) (experimental condition C), and to 31°C and 45% relative humidity with an equivalent humidex of 37 (considered somewhat uncomfortable) that is similar to experimental condition C. With this experimental design, investigators will assess the effects of indoor humidity in driving human heat strain and identify whether refinements in the recommended 26°C indoor temperature limit may be required. Further, by evaluating changes in relation to ambient conditions with a similar humidex, the investigators can assess how individuals perceive and respond to both heat and humidity.

Temperature Control for Heat Stress

Ottawa, Ontario
A recent report showed that maintaining indoor temperature at or below 26°C safeguards older, heat vulnerable adults against potentially dangerous increases in thermal and cardiovascular strain during an extreme heat event (PMID: 38329752). However, this proposed limit does not consider the potential cumulative effect of successive days of heat exposure, which could lead to a progressive deterioration in thermoregulatory and cardiovascular function and necessitate adjustments to upper indoor temperature limits. Further, thermal comfort and quality of sleep may be negatively impacted when bedroom temperatures exceed 24°C (PMID: 3090680). On this basis, some health agencies have recommended that bedroom temperatures at night should not exceed 26°C unless ceiling fans are available (PMID: 3090680). Currently, however, it is unknown whether indoor overheating impairs sleep quality and physiological strain on a subsequent day in older adults and, if so, whether maintaining indoor temperature at 26°C is sufficient to prevent these adverse health impacts. With rising global temperatures and more extreme heat events, energy management strategies to limit the strain on the power grid during the daytime are now increasingly commonplace. Thus, understanding the benefits of maintaining indoor temperature at the recommend upper limits of 26°C during the nighttime only on surrogate physiological indicators of health is an important step in understanding how to optimize protection for heat-vulnerable older adults when power outages occur. The investigators will assess the efficacy of proposed indoor temperature limits (i.e., 26°C) in mitigating increases in core temperature and cardiovascular strain over three consecutive days (3 days, 2 nights) in older adults (60-85 years) with (indoor temperatures maintained at the recommend 26°C at all times throughout the three days) and without (daytime temperature fixed at 34°C (temperature experienced in homes without air-conditioning during an extreme heat event) with nighttime temperature at 26°C) access to daytime cooling. By quantifying the effect of daylong indoor overheating on surrogate physiological outcomes linked with heat-related mortality and morbidity in older adults, the investigators can determine if refinements in the recommended upper temperature threshold is required, including best practices when power outages may occur during an extreme heat event.

Risk Assessment for Health Risks

Callahan, Florida
The "Genomic medicine Risk Assessment Care for Everyone" (GRACE)" intervention project will develop a scalable end-to-end solution for risk assessment and management that meets the needs of those populations living in low resource settings. The long-term goal is to increase access to and uptake of risk-informed evidence-based guidelines that will improve population health through better patient outcomes, higher quality of life, and decreased costs. The three primary aims are: Aim 1: Develop a scalable implementation framework that guides each unique clinical setting, including low resource settings, in deploying GRACE effectively for the needs of their patients and providers. Aim 2: Facilitate the potential for genomic medicine to promote population health by broadening access to and uptake of genomic risk assessment by the general population through a pragmatic implementation-effectiveness trial of GRACE. Aim 3: Reduce health disparities related to genomic medicine by allowing individual adaption of GRACE to suit their level of resources, education, and access within a pragmatic implementation-effectiveness trial. Three sets of participants will be engaged: patients (n=750), providers (n=25), and family members of "probands" (i.e., patients that have a genetic change that increases risk, n\~500). Patient participants will be asked to complete a baseline survey, enter their family health history information into MeTree (a family health history web-based platform) and complete a survey about their experience using the platform. Subsequent study procedures will depend on: 1) the results of their MeTree risk evaluation, 2) their acceptance/declination of genetic testing (for those categorized as needing testing by MeTree), and 3) the results of the test (for those accepting testing). Provider participants will be providers who are the primary care physicians treating one or more patients enrolled in the patient participant group. Providers will be notified on a patient by patient basis once the patient participant under their care has complete the risk assessment process and the risk report is available from MeTree. At study completion, provider participants will be asked to complete a survey about their demographics, practice, and experiences with the study. Blood relatives of the probands who are identified by the proband as open to engaging with the study will be contacted and offered genetic counseling and genetic testing.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Hypothermia 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 Hypothermia 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 Hypothermia 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 Hypothermia 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 Hypothermia 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 Hypothermia clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Alio Smart Patch Monitoring for Cancer Patients, Cooling Solutions for Hyperthermia and Perfusion Techniques for Brain Function in Aortic Valve Replacement to the Power online platform.
