RhPDGF-BB for Perianal Fistula Healing

Nashville, Tennessee
The average success rate for healing and remission of complex perianal fistulas, idiopathic or Crohn's-related, is approximately 50%. These abnormal connections between the rectum and the outside skin remain a major clinical challenge in need of new treatments aimed at tissue repair. Platelet-derived growth factor drives wound healing and tissue regeneration, and manufactured PDGF is currently used to heal diabetic foot ulcers and regenerate bone in periodontal and orthopedic patients. Manufactured recombinant human PDGF has the potential to improve the success rate for complete healing of complex perianal fistulas, reduce the recurrence rate due to reopening of the fistula tract, and avoid complications associated with routine surgical interventions.

PRP Injections for Low Back Pain

Fort Liberty, North Carolina
Low back pain (LBP) is both the single most common cause of disability and the leading cause of visits when military personnel go to their primary care doctors. Military personnel that deal with LBP can often be placed on limited duty profile. Not surprisingly, the direct and indirect costs of low back and neck pain accounts for approximately $88 billion of health care expenditure. In order to reduce the large financial and personal cost, clinical studies must be designed to treat LBP. This study will provide evidence-based medicine on a new regenerative medicine treatment option that may significantly affect military personnel with LBP. PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) may offer alternate treatment methods that may help preserve the facet joint structures, and improve pain and function without causing destructive lesions or worsening degenerative joints. This healing process may favor improved participation with rehabilitation therapy and ultimately improve return to duty status. This study will also assess the effectiveness of point of care generated PRP, as a minimally invasive treatment option for treating lumbar facet pain. Specifically, PRP effectiveness will be compared to injecting placebo control when injected into facet joints.

Methotrexate for Myeloproliferative Disorders

New York, New York
Low-dose MTX is a widely used, inexpensive, and safe therapy used for decades and is well tolerated by patients with rheumatologic diseases. Recently, it was identified as a type 2 JAK inhibitor. If MTX proves to be safe and tolerable with a signal of clinical activity, this could have a significant benefit to patients with MPNs. Beyond the potential benefit of adding a type 2 JAK inhibitor to current therapy, this could signal the need to study MTX in MPNs further as a monotherapy. Discovering MTX as safe and clinically effective in MPNs could be profound on both a public health and global health scale for patients who are uninsured and cannot afford more expensive novel JAK inhibitors, or for those in countries where JAK inhibitors are not available. Accordingly, the research team deems it reasonable and prudent to assess the safety and efficacy of MTX in addition to current therapy for patients with MPN. The research team will evaluate patients for spleen responses, symptom responses, and cytologic responses. Correlative data will evaluate pharmacokinetic and disease modifying activity of MTX in MPNs to inform future clinical trials.

Luspatercept for Clonal Cytopenia

New York, New York
The purpose of this clinical trial is to test how well the drug luspatercept works in improving low blood cell counts in people with clonal cytopenias of uncertain significance (CCUS). The main questions the study seeks to answer include: * How many patients experience improvements in their low blood counts (red cells, platelets, or white cells) within 24 weeks, based on specific criteria for blood conditions like myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS)? * How long these improvements last before the condition worsens or changes. * The percentage of participants showing improvements at 12, 24, and 48 weeks. * How long it takes for the condition to progress to more severe diseases like myeloid disorders. * How long red blood cell responses last and how quickly these responses are seen. * The average change in hemoglobin levels over 24 weeks. * How many patients need blood transfusions during the study and how soon transfusions are required. * Changes in participants' well-being and energy levels based on a standardized questionnaire. * Monitoring for any side effects, including progression to MDS or leukemia, heart-related issues, or sudden increases in hemoglobin. Participants will: * Receive luspatercept as an injection every three weeks. * Visit the clinic every three weeks for treatment and monitoring.

Sotagliflozin vs. Empagliflozin for Blood Clots

New York, New York
The availability of Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2-i) has dramatically altered the management of heart failure (HF) patients, independently of their ejection fraction and glycemic status. A meta-analysis of 57 studies comparing SGLT2-I monotherapy vs. placebo or active comparator showed reductions in major cardiovascular events, but no impact on atherothrombotic events. In fact, a non-significant increase in the risk for non-fatal stroke was observed. Similar trend observed in multiple trials indicate a SGLT2-i class effect. Sotagliflozin is the first dual SGLT1/2 receptor inhibitor, that was shown to significantly reduce atherothrombotic events compared with placebo in diabetic HF patients, suggesting that dual SGLT1/2 inhibitor may have additional properties vs. SGLT2-i. The hypothesis of this study is that dual SGLT1/2 inhibition by sotagliflozin improves thrombogenic profile (i.e. reduces thrombus formation), which could make it a safer and more effective treatment option for cardiovascular (CV) patients than SGLT2-i. To test the hypothesis, the researchers will compare the antithrombotic activity of sotagliflozin vs. empagliflozin in healthy volunteers using a randomized, cross-over study design, where each participant will receive both study treatments (sotagliflozin and empagliflozin) separated by a washout period. Treatment effects will be assessed by measuring ex vivo thrombus formation using the Badimon Perfusion chamber, platelet aggregation using Multiplate Analyzer, and Thromboelastometry using RoTEM Gamma. Study assessments will be performed before initiating (baseline/pre-treatment) and after completion of each treatment.

"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 Platelets 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 Platelets 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 Platelets 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 Platelets 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 Platelets 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 Platelets clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Platelet-rich Plasma Therapy for Hair Loss, Ravulizumab for Severe Preeclampsia and Sotagliflozin for Platelet Activation Control to the Power online platform.
