Digital vs Traditional Ankle Foot Orthoses for Muscular Weakness

Mississauga, Ontario
The research is being done to compare two methods of creating AFOs: 1. The traditional method, which involves manually creating a mold from a plaster cast of the client's limb. This is time-consuming and labor-intensive; and 2. The newer method uses digital technology, such as 3D scanning and printing, to design and produce the AFOs, potentially making the process faster and less costly. We want to know whether AFOs made using digital technology can provide the same clinical benefits as those made traditionally.

Combined Neuromodulation Therapy for Spinal Cord Injury

Toronto, Ontario
Many people with partial damages in their spinal cord (iSCI) have physical impairments such as muscle paralysis in legs which make standing balance difficult. Poor balance control often leads to falls, injuries, and hospitalization. Therefore, improvement of standing balance is an important therapeutic goal for these individuals. Our team has shown that a therapy called visual feedback training (VFT) can improve standing balance by allowing individuals with iSCI to actively participate and follow visual feedback of their body sway on a screen like a computer game. We have also found that the application of low-energy electrical pulses to weak muscles called functional electrical stimulation (FES) during VFT can enhance the training effects. Recently, transcutaneous spinal cord stimulation (TSCS) has been discussed as a promising technique to further promote the rehabilitation effects after SCI by enhancing the connectivity between the brain and spinal cord and within the spinal pathways. However, to date, the potential of combining the two techniques (TSCS+FES) to improve the standing balance remains unknown. In this study, through the completion of a clinical trial, we will investigate the effects of an intervention that combines lumbar TSCS with FES of ankle muscles during VFT on the functional and neurophysiological outcomes in individuals living with iSCI. Participants will be randomly allocated to receive combined TSCS with FES or FES alone during VFT for 12 training sessions over 4 weeks. We expect that the new therapy would further improve balance and strengthen the neural connections between the brain and muscles. The expected changes in the neural connections will be measured by recording electrical signals from the lower limb muscles following stimulation of the motor region of the brain. Results of this study will be used for a larger-scale study in people with iSCI to improve balance and reduce falls during their daily life activities.

DAS-001 for Myasthenia Gravis

Washington, District of Columbia
This trial tests whether adding ondansetron to pyridostigmine can help patients with myasthenia gravis who suffer from stomach problems caused by pyridostigmine. Pyridostigmine helps muscles work better, but it can cause nausea. Ondansetron is used to prevent this nausea. The goal is to see if patients can tolerate higher doses of pyridostigmine without feeling sick. Ondansetron is widely used to prevent nausea and vomiting in various conditions, including chemotherapy, pregnancy, and postoperative recovery.

Blood Flow Restriction Training for Muscle Weakness

Milwaukee, Wisconsin
A large portion of the American population live with disabilities. People with disabilities can find it difficult to perform standard exercise routines. Regular exercise is necessary to be healthy, especially as people age. Lack of exercise can lead to secondary health concerns, like loss of muscle mass, diabetes, heart attack or stroke, to name a few. For exercise to be most beneficial, a certain degree of intensity must be achieved. Low load blood flow restriction training may be able to mimic the intensity of beneficial exercise without actually exercising hard. It may be a good option for people with disabilities who find it difficult to exercise.

Exercise + Protein + Electric Stimulation for Muscle Weakness

Baltimore, Maryland
Elderly patients who experience a prolonged ICU stay are at high risk for developing post intensive care unit syndrome (PICS), a serious medical condition manifested by loss of muscle mass, weakness, malnutrition and neurocognitive decline. PICS often leads to chronic disability, prolonged mechanical ventilation and the need for costly extended stays in long term care facilities (LTCs). The investigators' preliminary study shows attempts at rehabilitating patients who have already developed PICS are minimally effective, resulting in only modest improvements in functionality. This project will determine the effects of mobility-based physical rehabilitation (MPR) combined with neuromuscular electric stimulation (NMES) and high protein supplementation (HPRO) early in a patients ICU stay on preventing PICS related musculoskeletal and functional deficits, and improving clinical outcomes.

Exercise Program for Reducing Falls in Older Adults

Brooklyn, New York
The goal of this quasi-experimental study using a pre and post test design is to learn about the effect of participating in an exercise program with hydraulic exercise equipment on fall risk in the older adult population. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the use of hydraulic exercise equipment decrease fall risk in older adults? * Does the use of hydraulic exercise equipment improve function in older adults? Participants will be evaluated pre and post intervention for strength, fall risk using Berg Balance Scale, Tinetti Balance and Gait Assessment, Timed Up and Go, and functional ability using the Lower Extremity Functional Scale. Participants will engage in an exercise program using 5 different pieces of hydraulic exercise equipment (Frei FACTUM® novus II line) 2x/week for for 6 weeks for 30-45 minutes each session. The equipment uses concentric movements only and works agonist and antagonist muscles with each machine (IE: push and pull, both concentric).

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Muscle Weakness 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 Muscle Weakness 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 Muscle Weakness 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 Muscle Weakness 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 Muscle Weakness 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 Muscle Weakness clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Imaging Muscle Activity for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia Survivors, Anitocabtagene Autoleucel for Myasthenia Gravis and YTB323 for Myasthenia Gravis to the Power online platform.
