This is a randomized, controlled, parallel study with 3 experimental arms aimed to assess the effect of a digital dietary intervention (web-based app, online behavior change curriculum) enhanced with 10 servings of vegetables and fruit (5 as dietary advice within the app, 5 within a dehydrated vegetable and fruit blend), with or without high Ultra Processed Food (UPF) soy-containing proteins compared to standard of care (usual care) on systolic blood pressure (SBP; primary outcome), and other key cardiometabolic endpoints over 12-weeks in adults living with hypertension and obesity, 50% with type 2 diabetes. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. Are nutrient-dense, high-UPF soy-protein foods similar (non-inferior) to low-UPF soy-protein foods in the context of a guidelines-based diet in their effect on blood pressure and other cardiometabolic risk factors? 2. Does an enhanced digital dietary intervention lead to meaningful reductions in blood pressure and other cardiometabolic risk factors compared to standard of care? Participants who are eligible and consent to be part of this study will be randomized to one of the following groups: 1) Active treatment (high-UPF soy-containing enhanced digital dietary intervention), 2) Reference treatment (low-UPF soy-containing enhanced digital dietary intervention), or 3) Control (standard of care). Participant Requirements: During the 12-week intervention, all participants will be required to attend in-person clinic visits at baseline (week 0), week 8 and 12. Baseline Visit (Week 0): Participants will be asked to arrive in a fasted state (no food or beverages, except water, for 10-12 hours before the visit). * Undergo various assessments, including anthropometric measurements, office blood pressure readings, and blood sampling (via a capillary finger prick and blood sample taken by the study nurse). * Review the 7-day food records completed using the Keenoa mobile app one week prior to clinic visit. * Bring fecal and urine samples from home. * Complete and review all questionnaires received via email one week prior. Telephone Check-in (Week 1): One week after beginning the study, the study staff will call participants to check in on how participants are following the protocol and answer any questions. Mid-Study Visit (Week 8): Participants will be asked to arrive in a fasted state (no food or beverages, except water, for 10-12 hours before the visit). * Have their office blood pressure and anthropometric measurements taken. * Complete and review all questionnaires received via email one week prior * Review the 3-day food records completed using the Keenoa mobile app one week prior to clinic visit. Final Study Visit (Week 12): Participants will be asked to arrive in a fasted state (no food or beverages, except water, for 10-12 hours before the visit). * Undergo various assessments, including anthropometric measurements, office blood pressure readings, and blood sampling (via a capillary finger prick and blood sample taken by the study nurse). * Review the 7-day food records completed using the Keenoa mobile app one week prior to clinic visit. * Bring fecal and urine samples from home. * Complete and review all questionnaires received via email one week prior. Throughout the study, participants will be asked to continue their usual lifestyle and physical activity. Additional Requirements for Treatment Groups: Participants randomized to the active and reference treatment groups will also be required to: * Incorporate a study vegetable and fruit blend (provided) into their daily diet for the full 12 weeks * Consume soy products categorized as either high ultra processed soy foods at least 4 servings per day, including at least 2 servings of ultra processed soy milk and 2 servings of other soy-based products (e.g., soy yogurt, soy burgers, or soy ground round) or non-ultra processed soy foods at least 4 servings per day, including at least 2 servings of minimally processed soy milk, 1 serving of edamame or roasted soy nuts, and 1 serving of tofu or tempeh * Participate in the digital dietary intervention, which includes: a health app, 7-day Kickstart Package, weekly text message support, and a 7-session online interactive program designed based on behaviour change theory * Attend a virtual focus group at Week 4 and complete an online feedback questionnaire

This study is a 16-week intent-to-treat randomized controlled trial (RCT) with 120 suicidal juvenile justice (JJ)-involved transition-age (TA) youth (age 15-21 years) and a primary caregiver (dyads). Dyads will be randomly assigned to iKinnect2.0 (n=60 dyads) or Life360 (control app) plus an electronic suicide resources brochure (n=60 dyads). This design will test iKinnect2.0's new features for suicide prevention against TA youth awareness of and access to high-quality suicide prevention resources, while simultaneously testing features relating to conduct problems and parent management against parents knowing the TA youth's whereabouts in real-time and controlling for dyad member engagement in technology (Life360). Participants will be assessed at baseline, 4, 8 and 16 weeks. Primary youth-reported outcomes relating to suicide risk include: Suicidal behaviors (ideation, planning, attempts), non-suicidal self-injurious behaviors, self-efficacy in coping with distress, and use of imminent distress coping strategies (behavioral skills, use of crisis stabilization plan). Youth will also report on their criminal behavior. Primary caregiver-reported outcome variables relating to youth suicide include: Self-efficacy in applying family-based suicide-prevention strategies and reported use of those strategies; caregivers will also report on their own functioning (efficacy/confidence in parenting skills, life stress), TA youth functioning (internalizing and externalizing symptoms), parental management behaviors (expectation clarity, parental monitoring, discipline effectiveness/consistency, use of rewards), and parent-youth relationship quality (communication, conflict, support). App satisfaction and use of technology outcomes (i.e., degree of app usage, features used) will be examined and reported descriptively.

Currently, patients presenting to the Fertility and Reproductive Medicine Center meet with an English-speaking provider and communicate through an interpreter, as none of the physicians speak Spanish. However, this study PI is a native Spanish speaker and certified bilingual clinician. Thus, this study is looking to evaluate whether or not the use of an interpreter delays completion of testing and initiation of fertility treatment. The medically indicated testing, procedures, and course of treatment will not be altered as a result of participation in the study. Participants will be asked to complete a survey in their preferred language to gauge satisfaction and communication efficacy. This proposed study is significant as it seeks to address a critical gap in the understanding of how language concordance between healthcare providers and patients influences treatment outcomes in fertility care. With Spanish being the most commonly spoken non-English language in the U.S., evaluating the impact of Spanish language skills in medical care is both timely and essential. This research will shed light on whether Spanish-speaking patients experience better treatment progression and outcomes when cared for by language-concordant providers versus when interpreters are used in fertility care. This prospective study will be conducted at Washington University's Fertility and Reproductive Medicine Center over a 12-month period. The investigators aim to enroll a total of 70 Spanish-speaking patients, based on previous patient trends at the Center 35 will be randomized to the intervention group (being evaluated and treated by a Spanish-speaking provider), and 35 will be randomized to standard of care (communicating with an English-speaking provider through an interpreter).

Multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) are costly and pervasive among older adults. MCCs account for 90% of Medicare spending, and 65% of Medicare beneficiaries have 3 or more chronic conditions; 23% have 5 or more. MCCs are often addressed in primary care, where time pressures force a focus on medication and lab results rather than self-management skills. Patients often struggle with treatment adherence and the emotional and physical burdens of self-management and health tracking. Chronic conditions reduce quality of life (QOL) and increase loneliness, which exacerbate those conditions. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate whether a voice-based platform is better for delivering an electronic health intervention to older adults than a text/typing-based platform. We have an evidence-based electronic health intervention (Elder Tree, ET) that has been shown to improve quality of life, physical and socio-emotional health outcomes for older adults with multiple chronic conditions when delivered via a text/typing-based system. The current project would test whether such patients would benefit even more if ET were delivered via a voice-based system (vs. the text-based system) because they would use it more consistently. ET is an existing intervention providing tools, motivation, and support on a computer platform to help older adults manage their health.

MAP for Coaches Training

Saint Louis, Missouri
The goal of this clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the MAP for Coaches, a web-based Musculoskeletal Athletic injury Prevention training course, in youth sport coaches. The main question it aims to answer are: * Is the MAP for Coaches effective in increasing coaches' sport-specific knowledge of musculoskeletal injuries (types, incidence, risk factors, mechanisms, and best prevention practices, with focus on neuromuscular training warm-up exercise programs)? * Is the MAP for Coaches effective in increasing coaches' motivation (self-efficacy and intention) to use sport-specific neuromuscular training warm-up exercise programs? The additional questions it aims to answer are: * Are the effects of the MAP for Coaches sustained in the short- and long-term? * Is the MAP for Coaches effective in promoting the use of sport-specific neuromuscular training warm-up exercise programs in youth sport coaches? Regardless of group, participants will receive the MAP for Coaches eLearning training course; however, the participants allocated to the control group will have their post-test survey completed right after they review the sport-specific 2-page injury prevention e-book containing an overview of the MAP for Coaches training course, including an infographic summary (Summarized MAP for Coaches eLearning Training Course). The intervention group will complete the post-test survey after the full training including both the course summary and the detailed course modules (the full training). The investigators will compare the two groups to see if an exposure to the (Full) MAP for Coaches eLearning Training Course improves study outcomes compared with the control group.

The Physical Activity Self-efficacy (PAS) intervention is a web-based behavioral intervention newly developed to promote physical activity in adults with obesity. The conceptual framework for the PAS intervention is based on self-efficacy theory. The objective of this study is to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of implementing the PAS online intervention for adults with obesity recruited from a local weight management center in the United States of America (USA). The study design is a prospective, double-blind, parallel group randomized pilot trial. Thirty participants will be randomly assigned to the PAS group or usual care group to achieve a 1:1 group assignment. Recruitment of participants is scheduled to begin in January 2024 or earlier at a local weight management center within a private healthcare system in the USA. There are five eligibility criteria for participation in this study (e.g., a body mass index ≥ 25.00 kg/m2). Eligibility verification and data collection will be conducted online. Three waves of data collection will take up to 14 weeks depending on participants' progress in the study. Instruments designed to measure demographic information, anthropometric characteristics, self-efficacy, and acceptability will be included in the survey battery. A research-grade accelerometer will be used to measure free-living physical activity objectively. Data will be analyzed using descriptive statistics and inferential statistical models under an intention-to-treat approach. This study will be sponsored by the Transdisciplinary Areas of Excellence Seed Grant Program from Binghamton University.

The purpose of this study is to identify the independent and combined effects of two types of self-monitoring and two types of micro-interventions when combined with standard cognitive behavioral treatment for bulimia nervosa (BN) and binge eating disorder (BED). The primary aims of this study are (1) to evaluate the optimal complexity of Self-Monitoring and Micro-Interventions on eating pathology (at post-treatment and at 6 and 12-month follow-ups and (2) to test the hypotheses that the optimal complexity level of each component is moderated by baseline deficits in self-regulation. The secondary aim will be to test target engagement for each level of complexity for each component, i.e., to test whether higher complexity of each technological components is associated with better rates of therapeutic skill use and acquisition and that improvements in skill use and acquisition are associated with improvements in outcomes. A final exploratory aim will be to quantify the component interaction effects, which may be partially additive (because components overlap and/or there is diminishing return), fully additive, or synergistic (in that component complexities may partially depend on each other).

As part of Phase II of the NIH SBIR grant, the study will conduct a randomized controlled clinical trial in which the MapHabit system (MHS) will offer a caregiver training product that is linked to MHS, an Alzheimer's disease or related dementias (AD/ADRD) assistive technology product that uses visual maps to improve a patient's behavior and sense of autonomy. MapHabit's combined areas of focus, i.e., offer a single integrated product to address the caregiver and the person under this caregiver's care, are unique and will create a new standard in the field to reduce caregiver burden in the setting of caring for individuals with AD/ADRD. Additionally, the study will integrate enhanced user support modules, i.e., gamifying, dashboarding, and social networking, to improve the Caregiver Training Program (CTP) experience.The study will be a randomized controlled clinical trial, in which two conditions will be investigated: 1) control condition in which the MHS alone is incorporated in the participant's daily care and 2) experimental condition in which the MHS+CTP is implemented into the daily care received by participants. The sample size will be a total of 50 patient-caregiver dyads, 25 in each condition. The study duration will be a 6-month intervention.

Older people with HIV (OPH) often live with significant mental health challenges such as social isolation, loneliness, and depression. The objectives of this study are to develop and test the usability and feasibility of a technology-based psychosocial intervention program designed to: enhance social engagement and support; facilitate resource access and education; reduce loneliness; and improve well-being among older adults with HIV who are long-term survivors (diagnosed with HIV ≥ 20 years). The program, Connecting Older Positive People to Enhance Health and Resilience (COPPEhR), will build on Dr. Sara Czaja's PRISM (A Personal Reminder and Information Management System for Seniors) platform, and will be an easy-to-use software application (app), preloaded onto a standard device, designed to support social connectivity, memory, and access to resources for older adults at risk for isolation and the programs and services available at the Center for Special Studies (CSS) at Weill Cornell Medicine (WCM). This protocol covers Phase 2 of the study, which will be a pilot randomized controlled efficacy trial will compare the COPPEhR intervention to a device-only control condition. Participants in the control condition will receive the same device as those in the COPPEhR condition without the COPPEhR application. The specific aims of this developmental project are to evaluate the feasibility, usefulness, and usability of a state-of-the art technology-based multicomponent COPPEhR intervention for aging adults with HIV. Our hypothesis is the COPPEhR intervention will be feasible, usable and useful. The hypothesis is that those that use the COPPEhR app will experience less loneliness, less depression, and less social isolation and more social support, more resilience, and more connectivity than those that do not use the COPPEhR app.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Technology 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 Technology 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 Technology 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 Technology 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 Technology 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 Technology clinical trials?

Most recently, we added HPV Vaccination App for Increasing HPV Vaccine Uptake, Counseling for Brain Cancer and Non-Contact Sleep Monitor for Alzheimer's Disease to the Power online platform.
