Aerobic Exercise for Vascular Health
Aurora, Colorado
The goal of the proposed study is to understand the reasons for the variability in aerobic exercise (AE) training benefits on the vasculature in middle-age and older (MA/O) adults, including differences between men and women. To achieve this goal, a mechanistic randomized controlled (RCT) will be conducted, in which adults are randomized to 12-weeks intervention of AE or no-exercise Control. Our overall hypothesis is that the exercise response variation in vascular benefits is related to age and sex differences in the biological changes underlying vascular aging and/or the molecular transducers (i.e., circulating molecules) that communicate and coordinate the effects of AE on the vasculature in the periphery and brain. Because this is a mechanistic trial, the overall goal is not a single health-related outcome. Rather, the goal is to advance our understanding of the molecular signals and pathways underlying the systemic and local effects of AE on vascular health that may explain the variability in AE responses with age and sex. This knowledge will allow for the development of personalized age- and sex-specific AE recommendations, and/or provide insights into molecular targets that can be manipulated to enhance and/or mimic exercise in non-responders or in persons unable to exercise.

Mind-Body Wellness Program for Primary Biliary Cirrhosis
Edmonton, Alberta
Primary Biliary Cholangitis (PBC) is a chronic liver disease that can cause fatigue, itching, brain fog, and emotional distress, all of which can lower quality of life. While the standard treatment, ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA), helps slow the disease, it does not relieve these symptoms. Research shows that mind-body practices-such as breathing exercises, meditation, and gentle movement-can help improve mental and physical well-being in people with chronic conditions, but their benefits for PBC are not yet well understood.
This study will test a 10-week online wellness program designed for women with PBC. The program will include guided breathing, meditation, and movement exercises, plus optional weekly group sessions and educational videos. Some participants will also receive nutrition guidance on the Mediterranean diet to see if it adds extra benefits.
The study will evaluate feasibility via recruitment, adherence, and retention. To assess acceptability, participants will provide feedback through surveys and interviews. The study will also explore early signs of effectiveness by measuring changes in symptoms like anxiety, depression, fatigue, and stress, as well as biological markers, brain activity, physical function, and data from wearable devices.
The results will help determine whether an online mind-body program, with or without nutrition support, could be a simple and effective way to help people with PBC manage their symptoms and improve their quality of life.

STEPPT for Back Pain
San Diego, California
This 6-month pilot study aims to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and estimate effect sizes of the pilot STEPPT intervention for addressing ethnic disparities in physical therapy referrals and adherence between Hispanic and Non-Hispanic White patients with spine pain. Feasibility and acceptability will be assessed based on the extent to which the pilot clinic implements all components of the intervention appropriately, feedback from clinic staff during implementation of the intervention, and feedback from patients during post-intervention interviews. The investigators anticipate that the intervention will be both feasible and acceptable. Feedback from patients and clinic staff will be used to inform intervention modifications for a larger clinical trial. Effect sizes for the pilot STEPPT intervention (intervention) in comparison to standard care (control) will be assessed by evaluating changes in ethnic disparities (Hispanic vs. Non-Hispanic White) in physician referral to physical therapy and patient adherence to physical therapy referral for the treatment of spine pain before and after implementation of the pilot STEPPT intervention. In comparison to standard care, the investigators expect STEPPT to reduce ethnic disparities in referral and adherence outcomes.

Breathing Exercises for Healthy Subjects
Los Angeles, California
The goal of this study is to determine whether tasks related to breathing training (daily inspiratory muscle training (IMT) and increased access to health data/awareness) performed for 12 weeks leads to positive changes in mental and physical states, and if these changes are sustained three months later. The study will assess whether IMT, compared to a sham IMT and the control group, improves psychological well-being, body awareness, and physical relaxation. Although there is evidence that all three interventions make a difference, the extent of their impact is yet to be determined, so the study aims to compare the effectiveness of the interventions, aiming to determine which may be most beneficial.
The main questions the study aims to answer are:
* Do tasks related to breathing training (high resistance IMT, low resistance IMT, or access to health data) performed over 12 weeks enhance mental and physical well-being?
* Are the changes in mental and physical states sustained three months post-intervention?
* Is IMT more effective than sham IMT or simple health data engagement in improving well-being?
* Who benefits from each intervention?
Participants will be randomly assigned to three groups:
* IMT: Daily inspiratory muscle training at a moderate to high resistance.
* Sham IMT: Daily inspiratory muscle training at a low resistance.
* Control: Participants will track their health data but not engage in IMT.
Participants will:
* Engage in daily IMT or sham IMT training for 12 weeks.
* Engage with the Oura ring and app by checking in daily to sync the ring's data and review personal health insights.
* Complete daily and weekly surveys tracking mental and physical health.
* Have biometric data collected at baseline, post-intervention (12 weeks), and at a 3-month follow-up.

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."

Reducing Sedentary Time for Leukemia
Los Angeles, California
The goal of this pilot clinical trial is to test if a mobile health intervention, including a wearable fitness tracker with inactivity-triggered reminders to move, individualized coaching sessions, and an app-based peer support group, can decrease sedentary time (time spent sitting/lying down and inactive) in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) receiving maintenance chemotherapy. The main questions it aims to answer are:
* Is the intervention a feasible and acceptable way to decrease sedentary time among adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with ALL?
* Does the intervention show evidence that it may decrease sedentary time?
* Does the intervention show evidence that it may increase quality of life, reduce inflammation, and improve glucose and lipid metabolism?
Participants will use their fitness tracker with reminders to move as well as support from other intervention participants and coaching with study staff to gradually decrease their sedentary time over 10 weeks. Researchers will compare participant pre- and post-intervention study measures to see if the program may be helpful to decrease sedentary time in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with ALL. All participants will wear an activity tracker on the thigh for 7 days at the beginning and end of the study as well as complete quality of life questionnaires. Study labs will be collected three times (baseline, 8 weeks, and 12 weeks) over the course of the 12-week study. All in-person study visits and labs will occur in conjunction with Oncology clinic visits for maintenance chemotherapy.

Digital Technology for Childhood Obesity
Victoria, British Columbia
The project will evaluate the short- and long-term effects of a 10-week Family Healthy Living Program (FHLP). The program is designed for families with children ages 8-12 years old who are at risk for being above a healthy weight and who would like support with healthy living habits such as physical activity and healthy eating.
Families will participate together, with both parents and children being involved in the program. FHLP participants will receive 9 weekly 2-hour online group sessions with a facilitation team as well as additional web-based resources. They will be compared to a control group of participating families who will be offered only the self-guided web-based resources. This will help us see the impact of offering facilitated FHLP group sessions versus only offering resources online. The FHLP is 10 weeks long, but participants will be followed for 12 months in total so that researchers can look at the long-term impact of participation.
All participating families from both groups will be asked to complete surveys and provide child height and weight measurements at four timepoints: before beginning the program, immediately after completing the program, at 6-months post-program, and at 12-months post-program. Children will also be given FitBit activity watches to measure their daily step counts at each timepoint.
Researchers will compare survey responses, child growth patterns, and FitBit step counts between the FHLP participants and the control group to see whether participating in the FHLP helps families improve their healthy living habits more than only offering a similar curriculum of healthy living resources online for families to access on their own.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do Physical Health 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 Physical Health 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 Physical Health 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 Physical Health 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 Physical Health medical study?
