The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if trimethoprim-sulfamethoxazole (TMP-SMX) works to treat invasive infections due to methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in children. It will also learn about the safety of TMP-SMX in the treatment of children with invasive MRSA infections. The main questions it aims to answer are: -Is TMP-SMX effective at successfully treating children with invasive infections due to MRSA? What are the side effects of TMP-SMX in children taking it for invasive infections due to MRSA? Researchers will compare TMP-SMX to a clindamycin (a commonly prescribed antibiotic for the treatment of MRSA in children) to see if TMP-SMX works better, worse or the same as clindamycin for children with invasive infections due to MRSA. Participants will: Take TMP-SMX or clindamycin for the treatment of their invasive infection due to MRSA. Will follow up with the provider treating their invasive infection at the discretion of the treating provider. Keep a diary of their symptoms and any side effects of the medicine

Dupilumab for Nasal Polyps

Charlottesville, Virginia
Hypothesis: The investigators hypothesize that in patients with CRSwNP who demonstrate sinus colonization with staphylococcus aureus, the administration of dupilumab will be associated with decreased staph colonization and an increase in microbial diversity. Primary Objective will be to demonstrate that dupilumab reduces staphylococcus aureus (phyla firmicutes) abundance while increasing microbial diversity in patients with CRSwNPs who are culture positive for staph aureus at enrollment. Secondary Objectives will be to correlate reduction in Staph aureus abundance and improved bacterial diversity with increased expression of anti-microbial proteins (ß-defensins1-4) and cathelicidin LL-37. In addition, the investigators will correlate improvements in microbial diversity/decreased staph abundance with clinical improvements as assessed via questionnaires and objective/subjective smell function and also as improvements in cellular/immune T2 inflammation as assessed by reduced expression of T2 cytokines/chemokines and eosinophil/eosinophil-derived proteins.

The goal of this clinical trial (the SIMPLY-SNAP trial) is to compare a simplified layered consent form to a full-length consent form for use during the informed consent process for a larger clinical trial of treatment of Staphylococcus aureus bloodstream infection (the SNAP trial). The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does use of a simplified layered consent form lead to an increased recruitment rate to the SNAP trial? * Does use of a simplified layer consent form lead to increased participant understanding of the SNAP trial and increased participant satisfaction with the informed consent process? Participants will be randomized to either the full-length informed consent form or the simplified layered consent form containing links to optional supplementary information or videos. Research staff will use the assigned form to explain the SNAP trial to participants. After consent, participants will be evaluated on their understanding of the SNAP trial and satisfaction with the consent process using a questionnaire.

Hospital-based Animal-Assisted visitation programs are important complementary therapies, but concerns with infection control may challenge the sustainability of these programs. Pilot data suggest that a low-cost chlorhexidine-based intervention targeted to the dogs involved in the visitation programs holds high potential to prevent pathogen transmission during sessions. In this study, the following aims will be tested: 1) To identify program-related risk factors for acquisition of hospital-associated pathogens by pediatric patients during animal-assisted intervention (AAI) sessions during an initial run-in phase of no intervention; 2) To determine the effect of chlorhexidine (CHX)-based interventions on acquisition of hospital-associated pathogens and microbial communities by patients during AAI sessions via a multicenter randomized controlled trial; and 3) To determine whether the specific benefits achieved by the visitation program, i.e. reduction in blood pressure, heart rate and self-reported pain and anxiety, are impacted by the interventions.

This is an open-label randomized controlled trial which will enroll patients with S. aureus bacteremia who are already taking aspirin for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events. We will randomize patients to continue their aspirin or change clopidogrel which is also approved for secondary prevention. Unlike aspirin, clopidogrel may have activity against S. aureus. We wish to determine if changing to clopidogrel will improve outcomes in S. aureus bacteremia in people who otherwise would have a reason to be taking it. This study is an approved sub-study of The Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial (NCT05137119). If positive, this study will support a second RCT in people who do not currently have an indication for clopidogrel.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

"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."

This is an open-label randomized controlled trial which will enroll patients with S. aureus bacteremia who are already taking oral anticoagulant medications (apixaban, edoxaban, or rivaroxaban) for an approved indication (stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation, prevention or treatment of venous thromboembolism). We will randomize patients to continue their existing medication or change to another medication (dabigatran) which is approved for the original indication. Dabigatran is approved in many countries for the treatment or prevention of venous thromboembolism or preventing stroke in atrial fibrillation. Unlike the other medications listed above, dabigatran seems to have activity against S. aureus in the test tube, in animal models, and in a smaller randomized controlled trial. We wish to determine if changing to dabigratran will improve outcomes in S. aureus bacteremia in people who otherwise would have a reason to be taking it. This study is an approved sub-study of The Staphylococcus aureus Network Adaptive Platform (SNAP) trial (NCT05137119). If positive, this study will support a second RCT in people who do not currently have an indication for anticoagulation.

This project is a pilot study of an adapted intervention of an existing Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment retention intervention called Recovery Management Checkups (RMC). This intervention has been adapted to better fit the experiences and unique issues of those that have been hospitalized with serious injection related infections (SIRI) based on the findings from a prior qualitative study from the principal investigator. This project plans to test the adapted intervention within a smaller group of participants to assess feasibility, acceptability, and calculate early findings of intervention efficacy. Hospitalizations for SIRIs are a unique entry point for patients to start their recovery journey with medications for OUD (MOUD), but many people do not remain on long-term treatment, despite evidence that indicates MOUDs reduce death and re-hospitalization after SIRIs. The study objectives are to: * Assess the implementation feasibility of the adapted RMC model for patients with SIRI and OUD. * Establish preliminary estimates of intervention efficacy. * Make further adaptions to the intervention that will reduce both known and unknown barriers to care and increase effectiveness in future larger scale trials. Findings from this pilot study will result in further intervention refinement to better fit the target population, and serve as the basis for a larger randomized control trial that will have aims focused on more in-depth analysis of the efficacy of this program

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Staphylococcus Aureus 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 Staphylococcus Aureus 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 Staphylococcus Aureus 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 Staphylococcus Aureus 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 Staphylococcus Aureus 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.
