Columbus, Ohio
The effects of exercise on prevention and improved control of chronic diseases, reduced mortality, and improved quality of life are well established. Exercise has been shown to prevent heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, depression, and certain types of cancers. In addition to prevention, physical activity is included in the standard or care for many chronic diseases and used in treatment. For example, the American Diabetes Association has identified positive health behaviors like physical activity as foundational in the treatment and management of disease and improving overall quality of life.
The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center Exercise is Medicine Program (EIM) is a physician referral program that aims to increase physical activity to prevent and reduce complications from chronic disease.
The integration of technology among a 65+ population of EIM participants provides a novel approach to improving individual's health. Thus, our study aims to provide EIM participants aged 65+ with smartwatches in the hopes of increasing their overall physical activity levels.

Stress/Emotion Management for High Blood Pressure
Columbus, Ohio
Covid-19 is an additional stressor Black women have to deal with that may interfere with hypertension self-care management. Social connectedness is a source of resilience for Black women to promote mental and physical health. Unfortunately, in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic, social distancing is a challenge further isolating Black women from their networks. How is social connectedness to manage stress and emotional well-being in a social-distancing society for Black women with hypertension? The research team proposed a synchronous web-based version of Enhanced Co-Created Health Education InterventioN (eCo-CHIN) that build the success and best practices derived from the original intervention. A Covid-19 session will be included as a way of helping Black women to maintain resilience and self-care during stressful times. The eCo-CHIN intervention is innovative and timely because the research team are using a synchronous platform preparing Black women on how to deal with Covid-19 while taking care of self. The primary investigator for this pilot study (Dr. Wright) is a Black Early Stage Investigator and former KL2 (career development) awardee. The interdisciplinary research team has the expertise and resources to deliver this Enhanced Co-CHIN intervention.

Black Impact Intervention for Cardiovascular Health
Columbus, Ohio
Lower attainment of cardiovascular health (CVH), indicated by the American Heart Association's Life's Simple 7 (LS7; physical activity, diet, cholesterol, blood pressure, body mass index, smoking, glycemia) and Life's Essential 8 (LE8; LS7+sleep) metrics, is a major contributor to Black men having the shortest life-expectancy of any non-indigenous race/sex group. Unfortunately, a paucity of literature exists on interventions aimed at improving CVH among Black men. The team of clinician scientists and community partners co-developed a community-based lifestyle intervention titled Black Impact: a 24-week intervention for Black men with less-than-ideal CVH (\<4 LS7 metrics in the ideal range) with 45 minutes of weekly physical activity, 45 minutes of weekly health education, and engagement with a health coach, group fitness trainer, and community health worker. Single-arm pilot testing of the intervention (n=74) revealed high feasibility, acceptability, and retention and a 0.93 (95% confidence interval: 0.40, 1.46, p\<0.001) point increase in LS7 score at 24 weeks. Secondary outcomes included improvements in psychosocial stress (i.e., perceived stress, depressive symptoms), patient activation, and social needs. Thus, robustly powered clinical trials are needed to determine the efficacy of Black Impact and to evaluate the underlying interpersonal and molecular pathways by which Black Impact improves psychosocial stress and CVH. Thus, the investigators propose a randomized, wait-list controlled trial of Black Impact. This novel, community-based intervention to provide a scalable model to improve CVH and psychosocial stress at the population level and evaluate the biological underpinnings by which the intervention mitigates cardiovascular disease risk. The proposed study aligns with American Heart Association's commitment to addressing CVH equity through innovative, multi-modal solutions.

The far-reaching negative health effects of the reduced physical activity (RPA) epidemic are often overlooked by the general population and health professionals. Short-term RPA induces cardiometabolic dysfunction, including impaired glucose control and vascular function, that may precede disease development. The impact of existing health status on RPA-induced cardiometabolic dysfunction and recovery of impaired glucose control following RPA is unexplored. Thus, the investigators' objectives are 1) to investigate the effect of existing health status (cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity) on the recovery of impaired glucose control following a period of RPA and 2) to determine the role of vascular function as a mechanism of impaired glucose control. The investigators' final objective is to 3) expose undergraduate students to meritorious biomedical clinical research methods. The investigators have piloted the clinical research methods and analysis with undergraduate researcher associates and are well-prepared to complete this proposal. Preliminary data show that low cardiorespiratory fitness and/or high adiposity impair the recovery of glucose control following short-term RPA. Thus, the investigators aim to examine the interactive role of health status (cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity) on the ability to recover impaired glucose control following short-term RPA. The investigators also seek to examine changes in vascular function as a mechanism of recovery of impaired glucose control following a return to normal PA. The investigators will recruit men and women with divergent health status (cardiorespiratory fitness and adiposity) to examine glucose control and vascular function during 7-d of normal PA, 7-d of RPA, and 7-d of resumption of normal RA. Continuous glucose monitoring and oral glucose tolerance tests will be performed to assess glucose control. Increases in vascular shear stress induced by passive leg movement and central arterial stiffness will be measured to assess vascular function.

Lifestyle Intervention for Heart Disease Risk
Cincinnati, Ohio
This research seeks to improve the Midlife Black Women's Stress Reduction and Wellness Intervention (B-SWELL), a program designed to lower heart disease risk in midlife Black women. The B-SWELL leverages stress reduction to facilitate the adoption and adherence to healthier lifestyle behaviors. This research study will use choice to increase engagement and minimize the effect of social determinants of health on research participation among midlife Black women.
A comparative clinical trial will be conducted. Midlife Black women (ages 45-64) who reside in the Greater Cincinnati area will be recruited for participation. Women are eligible if they self-identify as Black/ African American, are between the ages of 45-64, and are willing to commit to the requirements of the study (e.g., attend 8 weekly sessions and 4 phone interviews). Participants will be randomly placed (like the flip of a coin) into either the B-SWELL or WE group. Both the B-SWELL and WE groups are 8-week programs that focus on healthy lifestyle behaviors and heart disease awareness. Women will have the choice to participate in person or virtually. Survey phone interviews will be conducted at baseline, 8-, 12-, and 16-weeks. Data collected will provide information about adherence, healthy lifestyle behaviors, and cardiovascular health. Heart health will be measured using the American Heart Association's Life's Essential 8 metric.
Outcome measures include heart disease awareness, Life's Essential 8 score, stress, self-efficacy, depressive symptoms, and symptoms.

AZD6244 for Neurofibromatosis
Cincinnati, Ohio
Background:
- Plexiform neurofibromas are tumors that grow in and around nerves. The only way to treat them is with surgery. Some of these tumors cannot be completely removed. The tumors may be too large, too numerous, or in a bad location for surgery. An experimental drug called AZD6244 hydrogen sulfate may be able to prevent the tumors from growing, slow down their growth, or shrink them. This drug has been tested in adults with cancer and in children with some types of brain cancer. This study will test how well this drug works with these types of tumors.
Objectives:
- To study the safety and effectiveness of AZD6244 hydrogen sulfate in children and young adults with plexiform neurofibromas that cannot be completely removed by surgery.
Eligibility:
- Children and young adults between 12 and 18 years of age who have plexiform neurofibromas that cannot be completely removed by surgery.
Design:
* Patients will be screened with a physical exam, medical history, blood tests, and imaging studies.
* They will take the study drug twice a day with 8 ounces of water, every day for 28-day cycles of treatment. During study visits, participants will have blood and urine tests and physical exams. They will also have imaging studies to examine the tumor sizes and locations. They will answer questions about their health. They may have other tests as needed.
* Participants will continue to receive the study drug as long as they have no severe side effects and the disease is not getting worse.

"I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer three months ago, metastatic to my liver, and I have been receiving and responding well to chemotherapy. My blood work revealed that my tumor markers have gone from 2600 in the beginning to 173 as of now, even with the delay in treatment, they are not going up. CT Scans reveal they have been shrinking as well. However, chemo is seriously deteriorating my body. I have 4 more treatments to go in this 12 treatment cycle. I am just interested in learning about my other options, if any are available to me."

The purpose of this study is to allow us to assess the effectiveness (or success) of starting pelvic floor physical therapy (i.e. exercises for your pelvic muscles) prior to HoLEP (holmium laser enucleation of the prostate) surgery for enlarged prostates in order to manage or prevent urinary incontinence (i.e. leaking) after surgery (i.e. post-operatively). Your pelvic floor refers to the muscles under your bladder along your pelvic bones that prevent you from leaking urine or stool. Traditionally, pelvic floor physical therapy is started after surgery and continued until urinary continence (i.e. no leaking of urine) is regained. We want to assess if beginning pelvic floor physical therapy prior to surgery (and continuing afterwards) reduces the time required to regain urinary continence following HoLEP.

Deutetrabenazine for Tardive Dyskinesia
Cleveland, Ohio
The primary goal of this study is to investigate the efficacy of deutetrabenazine treatment of TD in this previously untreated patient population. Compare movement disorder deutetrabenazine treatment response in persons with IDD to response seen in patients without IDD treated with deutetrabenazine in other treatment settings (per literature review). Compare global deutetrabenazine treatment response with validated instruments.
In addition, we plan to:
* Assess the safety of deutetrabenazine in the treatment of TD in persons with IDD.
* Assess change in Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) in persons with IDD and TD treated with deutetrabenazine, utilizing a validated ADL instrument.
* Assess change in Quality of Life (QOL) in persons with IDD and TD treated with deutetrabenazine, utilizing a validated QOL instrument.
* Assess caregiver burden with a validated caregiver burden instrument.
In this study, 25 participants with IDD and TD will undergo Deutetrabenazine treatment for 24 weeks. The participants will be seen for a total of 5 visits: at baseline, and at follow up visits at 3 weeks, 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks.
This study does not include a comparison group. Therefore, researchers will compare the response of the study participants to deutetrabenazine treatment with those from a previous reported work that resulted in the FDA approval of this medication. This will be an open-label, Phase 4 study.

Enhanced DPP-GLB for Weight Loss Nonresponders
Winchester, Kentucky
This study seeks to establish the efficacy of identifying weight loss nonresponders early in a Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) intervention in 20 community settings (primarily churches and community centers) and providing them with individual-level, enhanced treatment through telephone contacts and access to additional resources. Additionally, potential mediators and moderators of the relationship between intervention status and weight loss response at 6 months in both nonresponders and responders will be examined and a cost-effectiveness analysis to evaluate the cost of the intervention will be conducted.
This study addresses key gaps in the literature about the weight loss effects of identifying nonresponders early and characterizing individuals who need more intense personalized strategies. The investigators hypothesize that changes between baseline and 3 months will be more pronounced among the nonresponders in the intervention group compared to the nonresponders in the active control group.

Single-Session Intervention for Suicidal Thoughts
Lexington, Kentucky
Across multiple models of suicide risk, hopelessness and perceptions of social relatedness (i.e., lack of social connection/thwarted belongingness, perceived burdensomeness) have emerged as candidate mechanisms that maintain STBs. Although these mechanisms have garnered strong empirical support in predicting STBs, there has been virtually no integration with interventions aimed for individuals at acute risk for suicide. Thus, the overarching goal of the present proposal is to evaluate a mechanism-focused intervention that explicitly targets two core mechanisms implicated in the maintenance of STBs: hopelessness and negative perceptions of social relatedness. Given that the period immediately following hospital discharge presents the highest risk for suicide attempts and up to 70% of patients admitted for a suicide attempt do not attend their first outpatient appointment, the intervention will be evaluated on an inpatient unit. Additionally, most of the extant interventions for STBs are administered across multiple sessions (i.e., 4 sessions and up to one year); however treatments of this length are unlikely to be feasible in acute care settings. Fortunately, very brief suicide prevention interventions, are effective in reducing future suicide attempts and increasing the likelihood of attending follow-up treatments. Additionally, single-session interventions (not suicide specific) have been shown to reduce hopelessness immediately and at a one-month follow-up.
The present study is an RCT comparing a novel Single Session Mechanism Focused Intervention (SSMFI) for STBs to treatment-as-usual (TAU) on a psychiatric inpatient unit for patients admitted for suicidal ideation or attempt. The engagement of the putative processes (hopelessness and negative perceptions of social relatedness) that maintain STBs will be assessed, along with the feasibility and acceptability of SSMFI for STBs on an inpatient psychiatric unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Life 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 Life 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 Life 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 Life 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 Life 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 Life clinical trials?
Most recently, we added Pediatric Palliative Care for Rare Diseases, Resiniferatoxin for Chronic Pain and Plant-based Lifestyle Intervention for Diabetes to the Power online platform.
