240 Participants Needed

Participants include men and women ≥ 40 years of age with T2DM, established CV disease, a history of HTN with an SBP of at least 130 mmHg at screening, who meet the predefined serum potassium level, and with at least one additional risk factor for HF. The study will include an optional pre-screening period to facilitate sites' identification of potentially eligible participants to enter the full screening assessments. Participants will not be required to visit the site and no informed consent is required for the optional pre-screening period. The pre-screening assessments do not replace the full screening tests at Visit 1. Upon entering the screening period, all consented participants (after signature of screening ICF) will be screened during an up to 14-day screening period. Participants who meet all screening inclusion/exclusion criteria but are not treated with SGLT2i or are treated for less than 4 weeks will enter a run-in period with dapagliflozin 10 mg once daily for at least 4 weeks (and not more than 6 weeks) before randomisation. Site visits will take place at approximately 2-, 4-, 8-, 16-, and 34-weeks following randomisation. Thereafter visits will occur approximately every 4 months. The study closure procedures will be initiated when the predetermined number of the first secondary endpoint events (ie, the composite of hospitalisation for HF or CV death) is predicted to have occurred i.e., the PACD. In case of premature discontinuation of the blinded study intervention, participants will remain in the study. Unless a participant meets the dapagliflozin specific discontinuation criteria, they will continue to receive open label dapagliflozin 10 mg. It is important that the scheduled study visits and data collection continue according to the study protocol.

The purpose of this research study is to determine if rifampin, an antibiotic (a medicine that treats infections), is effective in treating osteomyelitis (infection of the bone) of the foot in diabetic patients. Despite use of powerful antibiotics prescribed over a long period of time, many diabetic patients remain at a high risk for needing an amputation of part of the foot or lower leg because the osteomyelitis is not cured. Some small research studies have shown that addition of rifampin to other antibiotics is effective in treating osteomyelitis in both diabetics and non-diabetics. However, because few diabetics with osteomyelitis have been studied, there is no definite proof that it is better than the usual treatments for diabetic patients. If this study finds that adding rifampin to the usual antibiotics prescribed for osteomyelitis reduces the risk for amputations, doctors will be able to more effectively treat many Veteran patients with this serious infection. Improving treatment outcomes is an important healthcare goal of the VA.

"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."

Researchers are looking for a better way to treat people who have chronic kidney disease (CKD), CKD is a condition in which the kidneys' ability to work properly gradually decreases over time. A common sign of decreasing kidney function is the body losing too much of a protein called albumin in the urine. This condition is known as albuminuria. This can lead to a faster decline in kidney function. People who have high blood pressure and diabetes are more likely to have CKD and are at a higher risk of complications related to it. BAY3283142 is a new drug that is being developed to treat people with CKD. It works by activating a protein that helps relax blood vessels and is thought to have beneficial effects in CKD. In this study, researchers want to learn about how well different doses of BAY3283142 work when taken with standard treatment for CKD in reducing albumin in the urine of participants with CKD. They will compare the results of the change in the urine albumin-creatinine ratio (UACR) after 16 weeks for BAY3283142 with a placebo. A placebo looks like the study drug but does not have any medicine in it. During the study, participants will take either of the following drugs: * BAY3283142: Participants will take BAY3283142 as tablets by mouth. * Placebo: Participants will take it in the same way as BAY3283142. Participants will continue taking the available standard treatment for CKD and other conditions they may have (for example, heart conditions and diabetes). At the start of this study, the researchers will check the medical history and current medications of the participants. They will also perform a complete health check-up of all the participants. Researchers will take urine and blood samples from the participants at different time points to measure UACR and eGFR. Participants will be divided equally into different groups. Only 1 group will receive placebo and the other groups will receive BAY3283142. Participants will take their assigned treatment for 16 weeks. No one will know who receives which drug or dose of BAY3283142 during the study. Participants will be in this study for around 23 weeks. This includes the time for screening before the start of treatment and follow-up with participants after treatment. People can join this study if they: * are 18 years of age or older and have been diagnosed with CKD * have poor kidney function according to the eGFR test * have abnormally high levels of albumin in the urine according to the UACR test * have been taking certain drugs at a stable dose for management of high blood pressure, diabetes, kidney disease, etc. for at least 4 weeks before the start of the study People cannot join this study if they: * have low blood pressure * have had a stroke or a heart attack, or were hospitalized because of heart failure in the 3 months before the start of the study * have a serious liver disease * have a kidney disease for which they need to take drugs that control the immune system The detailed requirements will be discussed between the study doctors and people considering joining this study. Participants may or may not get the expected benefits of treatment with BAY3283142, but they will receive thorough medical check-ups during this study. These can help to improve individual treatment in the future and to identify unknown medical risks. Some participants may experience medical problems during this study including pain and discomfort when blood samples are taken. Researchers will closely monitor and manage any medical problems the participants may have. They will not include people who should not take BAY3283142 due to known safety concerns. The findings from this study may contribute to developing a new treatment option for people with CKD who have excess albumin in the urine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do clinical trials in Christiansburg, VA 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 clinical trials in Christiansburg, VA 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 trials in Christiansburg, VA 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 in Christiansburg, VA 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 in Christiansburg, VA 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 medical study in Christiansburg, VA?

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 clinical trials in Christiansburg, VA?

Most recently, we added Potato-Rich Diet for Type 2 Diabetes, Fruquintinib + FOLFIRI for Colorectal Cancer and Mevrometostat + Enzalutamide for Prostate Cancer to the Power online platform.
