The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the SMILE app, a Digital Health Platform (DHP), that will deliver a mindfulness intervention, designed to mitigate COVID-19 related stress. Additionally, the SMILE app will remotely collect self-reported psychological and physiological metrics of mental health and autonomic regulation. Study participants are adults who self-identify as African American, Black and/or Latino, and who have clinically significant levels of anxiety. The study aims are: * Aim 1: Establish the effectiveness and durability of an 8-week Mindfulness DHP intervention. The investigators will focus on two constructs important to mental health and hypothesize that: A) Anxiety, self-report stress and quality-of-life measures will significantly improve when comparing: A.1) Pre-to-post intervention, and; A.2) Control vs. intervention groups over 8 weeks and at 1-month follow-up. B) Arousal, autonomic indices of HRV (reflecting parasympathetic activation) will significantly improve, when comparing: B.1) Pre-to-post intervention, and; B.2) Control vs. intervention groups over 8 weeks and at 1-month follow-up. * Aim 2: Establish the sustainability of two Mindfulness DHP interventions utilizing retention, usage (frequency), and participant satisfaction. * Aim 3: Examine associations between COVID-19 related stress, mental health outcomes, and HRV. Examine the extent to which COVID-19 related stress and mental health symptoms are linked to HRV at baseline and how that relationship changes over time. Participants will be assigned to 1 of 3 arms of the study: MTIA intervention, MAPP intervention, or wait-list control. All participants will be mailed a device with the SMILE app installed, and the equipment for recording cardiac data in the home. All participants will complete the baseline psychometrics measures and physiological stress test using the instructions provided on the SMILE app. Those assigned to the MTIA or MAPP intervention groups will then participate in their assigned intervention over the subsequent 8 weeks. During these 8 weeks, psychometric and physiological data will be completed biweekly for all participants. 3 months following the initial baseline, all participants will complete a final psychometric/physiological evaluation.

modRNA Vaccine for Flu

New York, New York
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study vaccine for the possible prevention of influenza. Influenza is a disease that can spread easily from one person to another and cause body aches, fever, cough, and other symptoms. The study vaccine is called Pandemic Influenza modRNA (pdmFlu) Vaccine. This study is seeking for participants who are: * between the ages of 18 to 49 years old or 65 to 84 years old. * willing and able to follow with all scheduled visits, treatment plan, laboratory tests, lifestyle changes, and other study procedures. * healthy as confirmed by medical history, physical examinations, and the study doctor. * capable of signing informed consent. Participants will receive either: * the pdmFlu vaccine, * a licensed influenza vaccine * a placebo. A placebo does not have any medicine in it but looks just like the study medicine. Participants will not know which vaccine they receive. Participants will receive the study vaccines as a single shot in the arm. The study will compare participant experiences to help understand if the pdmFlu vaccine is safe and effective. Participants will take part in this study for up to 13 months. During this time, the participants will receive the study vaccine and take part in follow-up visits.

It is expected that large numbers of healthcare workers will experience a broad range of psychological reactions and symptoms including anxiety, depression, moral distress, and trauma symptoms that will cause both significant suffering as well as occupational and social impairment. The purpose of this study is to find interventions which are helpful in treating psychological distress in healthcare workers caring for COVID-19 patients. There are two phases of the study. All participants will take part in Phase I, which consists of 4 sessions over a two-week period of either a narrative writing intervention or a medical music intervention. Participants will be randomly assigned to the narrative writing intervention or medical music intervention. After Phase I, participants will be re-assessed. Healthcare workers who meet criteria for PTSD will be given the option to participate in Phase II of the study, in which they will be offered a choice between one of two evidence-based treatments for PTSD: Interpersonal Therapy (IPT) or Exposure Therapy (ET). Both treatments are comprised of ten 75-minute sessions scheduled twice weekly. Participants will be allowed to choose a preferred treatment in Phase II. After Phase II participants will complete a final assessment concluding the study. All interventions will be offered using distance technology.

LAIV for Flu

Birmingham, Alabama
As yet the investigators do not understand if there are biomarkers of immune protection after the Flumist or Live Attenuated Flu Vaccine (LAIV). Here the investigators test the hypothesis that the T-bet expressing fraction of flu-specific B cells after live attenuated influenza vaccination also serves as an early biomarker of long-lived antibody responses after vaccination. In this study the investigators will be providing the LAIV to up to 10 healthy subjects and assaying their immune response and then providing the intramuscular influenza vaccination and testing to see if the immune protection after the LAIV also protects after the intramuscular influenza vaccination. Update: We have amended this protocol to study the antigen-specific B cell populations that circulate after LAIV or IIV prime and LAIV or IIV boost.

The objective of this study is to assess the use of and satisfaction with the ECA intervention over a 12-month period, its ability to increase SARS-CoV-2 and influenza vaccination in the BMATP community, and the comparative effectiveness of proactive engagement strategies and cultural tailoring on these factors. The Investigators will assess app use and satisfaction among these participants, along with self-reported vaccination attitudes and behavior, at 6 months and 12 months. During this time the investigators will conduct a 2x2 factorial RCT (with the individual the unit of random assignment and measurement) to assess the impact of two app design features on engagement and outcomes: (1) the investigators will manipulate engagement mechanisms (ENGAGEMENT), including reminder notifications and trust-building dialogue by the ECA and, (2) independently manipulate cultural tailoring of vaccination promotion counseling language used by the agent (TAILORING) to either adaptive religiosity (tailored) or secular (non-tailored). The investigators' primary hypotheses are that participants with have significantly greater vaccination completion rates in the high engagement and tailored conditions at 6 months (H1) and 12 months (H2) compared to other conditions. The investigators' secondary hypotheses are that participants will use the app more, be more satisfied with the ECA, be more advanced in their stage of change, and have greater knowledge, self-efficacy, and decisional-balance from baseline to 6 and 12 months, in the high engagement and tailored conditions. In addition to the RCT participants, all members of the 12 participating BMATP churches will be invited to use the app (via snowball recruitment), to increase the utility of the social networking functions of the app by having as many users as possible.

The purpose of this randomized controlled pilot trial is to test the effectiveness of a six-week tailored physical activity program with and without peer mentoring on the psychological constructs and exercise behaviour of inactive undergraduate women. The objectives are to: * Quantify the degree to which a peer-mentorship intervention affects exercise motivation determined through three basic psychological needs (i.e., autonomy, competence, and relatedness). * Examine general psychological distress and exercise engagement throughout the study. * Qualitatively explore participants' experiences following the completion of the program using an open-ended survey to gain a better understanding of its impact. Researchers will compare the parallel arm conditions to see how the inclusion of social support impacts exercise engagement. Participants will be asked to engage in exercise three times a week at the campus gym; those in the intervention condition will have an assigned peer-mentor who will join them for one weekly session and virtually communicate with them between sessions.

Racial and ethnic minority children who live in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities are disproportionately impacted by pandemic and climate-induced disasters. Although effective interventions have been designed to treat mental health related symptoms in post-disaster settings, accessible, empirically supported prevention interventions are needed to prevent the onset of mental and behavioral health issues among these children. Building on our preliminary findings, the proposed study examines the efficacy and implementation of a COVID-19 adapted disaster focused prevention intervention, Journey of Hope-C19, in preventing behavioral health and interpersonal problems among racial and ethnic minority children who live in low-resource high poverty communities.

Throughout the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic, rates of COVID-19 have been persistently high in San Diego County's central and southern communities near the United States/Mexico border. These regions predominantly house Latino residents, the ethnic minority community most impacted by COVID-19 in San Diego. In the Phase I project, University of California, San Diego (UCSD) partnered with San Ysidro Health (SYH) and the Global Action Research Center, to co-create and demonstrate the impact of a COVID-19 testing program in San Ysidro, one of the most impacted areas from COVID-19 in San Diego County. To date, the project tested \>10,000 community members (92% Latino) and received requests to scale-out the testing program to additional primary care clinic sites. In this Phase III project, Community-engaged Optimization of COVID-19 Rapid Evaluation And TEsting Experiences (CO-CREATE-Ex) will extend work with the Phase I community and clinical partners to refine, specify, implement, and evaluate an implementation strategy bundle that optimizes COVID-19 testing, expanding beyond current polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing to FDA-authorized COVID-19 rapid antigen testing.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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 Pandemics 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 Pandemics 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 Pandemics 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 Pandemics 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 Pandemics 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 Pandemics clinical trials?

Most recently, we added mRNA Vaccine for Flu, Peer Support for Exercise Habits and mRNA Vaccine for Flu to the Power online platform.
