Six patients with diagnosed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair will be approached to participate in the study. Participants will have the liquid portion of bone marrow collected using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, which is the standard system used by physicians at The Ohio State University, and the novel Marrow Cellutions system™. Bone marrow liquid will be collected from the surgical hip using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, and the Marrow Cellutions system™ will be used to collect bone marrow liquid from the non-surgical hip. Following collection, the bone marrow liquid will be processed using the respective systems to concentrate the cells and molecules found in the bone marrow liquid. As part of the standard of care for this arthroscopic procedure, concentrated bone marrow liquid processed using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be delivered to the surgical site as an adjunct to promote healing. Concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system is given as part of the standard of care for patients undergoing minimally invasive treatment for bone loss of the hip; therefore, the target population for this study are individuals between the ages of 18-50 years with confirmed bone loss of the hip who have consented to minimally invasive repair. In addition to the concentrated bone marrow liquid prepared using the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system, patients will also have bone marrow liquid collected from the non-surgical hip using the Marrow Cellutions™ system. Only concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Zimmer Biomet Biocue system will be given to the patient. All concentrated bone marrow liquid produced with the Marrow Cellutions™ system will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. Additionally, white blood cells will be concentrated into an autologous protein solution (APS) using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system from blood collected using a routine blood draw. All protein solution produced will be sent to the laboratory for analysis. No protein solution will be given to the patient. As the bone marrow liquid collection using the Marrow Cellutions™ system and the blood draw to produce protein solution using the Zimmer Biomet Plasmax system are being performed for research,

Osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) is a debilitating musculoskeletal disease that is characterized by localized death of bone cells and associated cellular elements within the subchondral bone. If it progresses, it results in the collapse of the femoral head (ball part of the hip) giving rise to secondary arthritis. This condition is associated with marked pain and loss of function, often necessitating a joint replacement. Due to the relatively young age of onset of ONFH (often in 20s and 30s), there is great interest in utilizing joint-preserving procedures prior to the need for joint replacement. Joint-preserving procedures include core decompression (CD) with and without bone grafts or cells, vascularized and non-vascularized bone grafting, as well as osteotomies. Inconsistent results for each of these procedures have been reported and there are no Clinical Practice Guidelines or medical community consensus opinions regarding the treatment of early-stage ONFH. The hypothesis to be tested is "Participants who have early-stage ONFH undergoing CD augmented with autogenous bone marrow aspirate concentrate will have better clinical and radiological outcomes than CD alone." This multi-center randomized controlled trial for early-stage ONFH is prospective and controlled for participant stage (only early-stage pre-collapse individuals) and surgical technique. Participants will be evaluated as per routine surgical follow-up, and at 6 months (telemedicine), 1- and 2- years using radiographs, MRIs, and questionnaires. This project will also explore the scientific basis for success vs. failure in individuals who have osteonecrosis, and have different demographics and bone marrow aspirate cell profiles.

Antihypertensive Therapy for Leukemia

Charlotte, North Carolina
This is a randomized unblinded Phase II clinical trial evaluating the impact of intensive antihypertensive control (targeted to the 50-75th percentile for age, sex, and height) compared to conventional antihypertensive control (targeted to the 90-95th percentile for age, sex, and height) on the incidence of radiographically extensive osteonecrosis in children and young adults receiving treatment for newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma (ALL). Primary Objective * Compare the frequency of radiographically extensive osteonecrosis in patients receiving intensive compared to conventional antihypertensive therapy. Secondary Objectives * Evaluate the efficacy of intensive antihypertensive control compared to conventional antihypertensive control in the prevention of clinically significant (CTCAE Grade 2 or higher) and radiologically extensive osteonecrosis, overall and stratified by joints. * Compare the frequency of clinically significant and radiographically extensive osteonecrosis in patients receiving antihypertensive therapy and historical controls. * Compare blood pressures achieved in intensive and conventional arms using both pressures obtained as part of routine patient care and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. * Compare levels of vascular dysfunction as measured physiologically, radiographically, and in blood samples in patients receiving intensive compared to standard antihypertensive therapy. Exploratory Objectives * Identify predictive patterns of blood biomarkers which identify patients at high- risk of developing clinically significant osteonecrosis. * Identify MRI findings during late induction which correlate with osteonecrosis lesions seen during reinduction. * Identify patterns of diurnal blood pressure variation as measured by ambulatory blood pressure monitoring associated with the later development of osteonecrosis. * Compare induction blood pressure control and intervention arm to echocardiographic changes at reinduction II. * Evaluate patient-reported, health-related quality of life in patients during induction and after 1.5 years of therapy when many experience the symptoms of osteonecrosis.

Gene Modified T-cells for Blood Disorders

Washington, District of Columbia
This study will evaluate pediatric patients with malignant or non-malignant blood cell disorders who are having a blood stem cell transplant depleted of T cell receptor (TCR) alfa and beta cells that comes from a partially matched family donor. The study will assess whether immune cells, called T cells, from the family donor, that are specially grown in the laboratory and given back to the patient along with the stem cell transplant can help the immune system recover faster after transplant. As a safety measure these T cells have been programmed with a self-destruct switch so that they can be destroyed if they start to react against tissues (graft versus host disease).

"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."

"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."

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Osteonecrosis 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 Osteonecrosis 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 Osteonecrosis 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 Osteonecrosis 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 Osteonecrosis 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 Osteonecrosis clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Alendronate for Osteonecrosis in Sickle Cell Disease, Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy for Avascular Necrosis and Bone Marrow Aspirate for Osteonecrosis to the Power online platform.
