Swallowing Exercises for Obstructive Sleep Apnea

Cleveland, Ohio
This study has two parts: an observational part and an interventional part. The goal of the observational part of the study is to look for variations in swallowing in adults with obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and in adults who don't snore. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Are there differences in swallowing between people with OSA and people who don't snore? * Are there differences in swallowing between people with OSA who do well with continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy and those who struggle with CPAP? This may help us better understand what causes OSA, which may help us develop alternate ways to treat or even prevent OSA. It may also help us improve care for people with OSA who struggle with CPAP. Participants will be aged 40-60 years, except women up to the age of 70 will be included in the healthy control (non-snorer) group. Participants will: * Undergo a type of x-ray study called a modified barium swallow study (MBS) * Come to MetroHealth Medical Center for a measurement visit to: * assess the strength of their tongue, lips, and cheeks * assess the strength of their breathing muscles * assess for restrictions in tongue mobility (tongue ties) * observe their resting breathing * take photos of their mouth and posture * take videos of them drinking and eating * Complete some questionnaires * For successful CPAP users: we will download data from the chip in their CPAP device * Do a home sleep test (except for successful CPAP users who have had a recent in-lab sleep test) The goal of the interventional part of the study is to test swallowing exercises in people ages 40-60 years with OSA who struggle with CPAP. The main question it aims to answer is: • Can swallowing exercises help people who struggle with CPAP sleep better with CPAP? Participants will: * Try to use CPAP for 2 weeks with individualized support * Do all the investigations listed in the observational part of the study * Do one or two courses of swallowing exercises, each of which would last 7 weeks. Participants will be asked to do daily exercises; exercises will take 20-30 minutes to perform. * Try to use CPAP for 2 weeks after the course of exercises * Repeat the investigations listed in the observational part of the study to see if changes occurred with the swallowing exercise intervention.

Pembrolizumab + Radiation for Bladder Cancer

Washington, Pennsylvania
This phase II trial compares the use of pembrolizumab and radiation therapy to chemotherapy with cisplatin, gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil or mitomycin-C and radiation therapy for the treatment of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Chemotherapy drugs, such as cisplatin, gemcitabine, 5-fluorouracil or mitomycin-C, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Giving pembrolizumab with radiation may kill more tumor cells than chemotherapy with radiation therapy in patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

Nutrition Interventions for Pediatric Cancer

Lexington, Kentucky
Nearly 60% of pediatric patients diagnosed with cancer develop malnutrition caused by a combination of disease burden, side effects of chemotherapy, and the intensity of cancer treatment. These patients are known to have an increased risk of infection, treatment-related toxicity, inferior clinical outcomes, and increased risk of mortality. Malnutrition may progress to cancer cachexia, characterized by anorexia, increased inflammation, decreased fat, and decreased muscle mass with subsequent weight loss, which is associated with decreased overall survival. The goal of the proposed research is to determine changes in body composition, weight status, and nutritional status between common nutrition interventions including oral nutrition supplements (ONS), appetite stimulants, and enteral nutrition (EN) among pediatric cancer patients. A secondary goal of this research is to utilize the findings to develop clinical nutrition guidelines for this patient population. The specific objective of the research proposed is to solve the lack of evidence to adequately treat nutritional deficits in the pediatric oncology population. Without this data, there is a lack of clinical consistency in the initiation and selection of appropriate nutrition interventions to provide a more definitive pathway of care. This study can help formulate a clinical guideline for this patient population before, during, and after treatment.

Nitric Oxide Sensor for Wound Healing

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
The purpose of this research is to evaluate the ability of a Nitric Oxide (NO) Sensor to collect NO measurement data from an open wound. Previous research suggests that NO levels may indicate the stage of healing the wound is in. This study is being done to determine if the NO Sensor can measure how much NO is in a participant's wound. The researcher will place the NO Sensor into a participant's wound to collect NO measurements for 30-60 minutes. The participant will then have 2 follow-up appointments to see how the wound heals over time.

Why Other Patients Applied

"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

ZS
Depression PatientAge: 51

"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."

FF
ADHD PatientAge: 31

"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."

HZ
Arthritis PatientAge: 78

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

AG
Paralysis PatientAge: 50

"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."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Muscle 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 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 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 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 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 clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Apalutamide for Bladder Cancer, Partial Cystectomy for Bladder Cancer and BMS-986368 for Multiple Sclerosis to the Power online platform.
