Catonsville, Maryland
Schizophrenia spectrum disorders are associated with impairment in the microstructure of white matter, the key brain tissue responsible for fast communication between different brain regions necessary for any complex task. This white matter impairment is linked to problems with cognition in schizophrenia, especially slower processing speed. This project aims to study the potential for correcting white matter deficits in schizophrenia by examining mechanisms underlying white matter structure changes in response to training on playing a mock musical instrument.

Cxbladder Triage Plus for Hematuria
Hanover, Maryland
This study includes adult patients who see a urologist because of blood in their urine. The amount is so small it can only be seen with a microscope. This is called microhematuria. There can be many reasons for microhematuria. One of them is bladder cancer. While bladder cancer is one of the biggest worries, it is only found in few of these patients.
Most microhematuria patients will have a cystoscopy to look inside the bladder. During a cystoscopy, a small camera is inserted into the bladder. This is done through the urethra, the tube that passes urine from the bladder to the outside. In some patients it can cause pain or anxiety. Not all patients have a cystoscopy. Those that don't, usually return for a urine sample within 6 months. This is done to check if there is still blood in their urine.
This study is conducted to find out if the use of "Cxbladder Triage Plus" changes the number of cystoscopies in microhematuria patients. Cxbladder Triage Plus is also called "Triage Plus". It is a lab test that was developed to check how likely urothelial carcinoma is present in the bladder. Urothelial carcinoma is by far the most common type of bladder cancer. For the test, the patient voids some urine into a cup. A laboratory then checks the urine of specific genetic material. Abnormalities can be a sign of urothelial carcinoma. The result indicates if the urine is more like most normal urine or more like that of urothelial carcinoma patients.
The study is done to find out how Triage Plus changes the number of cystoscopies. Study participants first void urine into a cup. The urine is used for the Triage Plus test. The patients are then assigned to one of two groups. The assignment is random. This means the nobody can influence the assignment. The chance to be assigned to either group is the same. In the test group, the urologist will receive the Triage Plus result and discuss it with the patient. Together they decide whether to do a cystoscopy. In the control group, the urologist will not receive the Triage Plus result. The patient will also not get the result. The urologist and patient will follow standard of care to decide whether to do a cystoscopy.
For test group patients, the study gives a recommendation whether to proceed with cystoscopy. It is based on the patient's Triage Plus result. The urologist and patient do not need to follow the recommendation. If the urologist does not follow it, they will complete a survey. The patient will be asked to complete a survey if they don't follow the urologist's recommendation. The survey has only one question. It is asking for the reasons of the decision.
After making their decision, patients will follow the chosen pathway. Data on the performed procedures are collected. The diagnosis will also be documented. Data will be collected for up to about 9 months.
To see how Triage Plus changes the number of cystoscopies, these will be counted in each group and then compared.

GammaPod Radiation for Early Stage Breast Cancer
Glen Burnie, Maryland
The GammaPod machine was made by Xcision Medical Systems and is already FDA cleared to deliver focused radiation within the breast. Unlike current radiation machines, the GammaPod was designed specifically for treating breast cancer. The GammaPod can pinpoint radiation to the tumor bed in the breast which lowers the amount of radiation to nearby tissues. The machine uses a breast cup system to hold the breast in place for the treatment. This breast cup system was tested at MSGCCC (Marlene Stewart Greenebaum Comprehensive Cancer Center). Patients reported this system was more comfortable than an MRI or mammogram. The cup system was able to securely position the breast for treatment in the correct location.
Receiving radiation before surgery is not a new concept in cancer management. Preoperative radiation has proven to result in improved disease free survival in certain types of cancer.
With this study treatment, the participants will receive a dose of breast radiation therapy before the lumpectomy surgery. The lumpectomy surgery is where they remove the participant's tumor.
The purpose of this research study is to determine a safe and effective dose of pre-operative radiation to treat early stage breast cancer. The pre-operative radiation is delivered using the FDA approved, GammaPod machine. The study will also determine the cosmesis of pre-operative radiation at different doses. Cosmesis is another word for looking at skin changes. The research team will use questionnaires for patient and physicians to assess adverse cosmesis changes as accurately as possible. In addition, the investigators are going to assess radiation related changes using photo software analysis tools and patients quality of life.

SEPSys and RESCUE Scores for Sepsis Prediction
Glen Burnie, Maryland
This study is designed to test two new risk scores - one designed to predict a patient's four-hour risk of developing sepsis and one designed to predict a patient's four-hour risk of deterioration (cardiac arrest, death, unplanned ICU transfer, or rapid response team call). The goal of this study is to improve provider awareness of a patient's risk of these two negative outcomes by providing them with new risk scores. The primary outcome will be the time from when the risk score becomes elevated to when vital signs such as heart rate or blood pressure are measured, suggesting an increased awareness.

Function Focused Care for Dementia
Glen Burnie, Maryland
Older adults with Alzheimer's Disease and Related Dementias (ADRD) comprise approximately 25% of hospitalized older adults. These individuals are at increased risk for functional decline, delirium, falls, behavioral symptoms associated with dementia (BPSD) and longer lengths of stay. Physical activity during hospitalization (e.g., mobility,bathing, dressing) has a positive impact on older adults including prevention of functional decline, less pain, less delirium, less BPSD, fewer falls, shorter length of stay and decreased unplanned hospital readmissions. Despite known benefits, physical activity is not routinely encouraged and older hospitalized patients spend over 80% of their acute care stay in bed. Challenges to increasing physical activity among older patients with ADRD include environment and policy issues (e.g., lack of access to areas to walk); lack of knowledge among nurses on how to evaluate, prevent and manage delirium and BPSD; inappropriate use of tethers; beliefs among patients, families, and nurses that bed rests helps recovery and prevents falls; and lack of motivation/willingness of patients to get out of bed. To increase physical activity and prevent functional decline while hospitalized we developed Function Focused Care for Acute Care (FFC-AC-EIT) for patients with ADRD. Implementation of FFC-AC-EIT changes how care is provided by having nurses teach, cue, and help patients with ADRD engage in physical activity during all care interactions. FFC-AC-EIT was developed using a social ecological model, social cognitive theory and the Evidence Integration Triangle. It involves a four-step approach that includes: (1) Environment and Policy Assessments; (2) Education; (3) Establishing Patient Goals; and (4) Mentoring and Motivating of Staff, Patients and Families. The purpose of this study is to test the efficacy of FFC-AC-EIT within 12 hospitals in Maryland and Pennsylvania randomized to FFC-AC-EIT or Function Focused Care Education Only (EO) with 50 patients recruited per hospital (total sample 600 patients). Aim 1 will focus on efficacy at the patient level based primarily on physical activity, function, and participation in function focused care, and secondarily on delirium, BPSD, pain, falls, use of tethers, and length of stay; and all of these outcomes (except length of stay and tethers) along with emergency room visits, re-hospitalizations and new long term care admissions at 1, 6 and 12 months post discharge; and at the unit level the aim is to evaluate the impact of FFC-AC-EIT on policies and environments that facilitate function and physical activity at 6, 12 and 18 months post implementation. Hospitals randomized to FFC-AC-EIT will be compared with those randomized to Function Focused Care Education Only (EO). Aim 2 will evaluate the feasibility, based on treatment fidelity (delivery, receipt, enactment)136, and relative cost and cost savings of FFC-AC-EIT versus EO. Findings will address several prioritized areas of research: a focus on ADRD; improving physical function; and training of hospital staff and will demonstrate efficacy of an approach to care for patients with ADRD that can be disseminated and implemented across all acute care facilities.

Surgical Procedures for Reducing Ovarian Cancer Risk
Glen Burnie, Maryland
This clinical trial evaluates how well two surgical procedures (bilateral salpingectomy and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy) work in reducing the risk of ovarian cancer for individuals with BRCA1 mutations. Bilateral salpingectomy involves the surgical removal of fallopian tubes, and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy involves the surgical removal of both the fallopian tubes and ovaries. This study may help doctors determine if the two surgical procedures are nearly the same for ovarian cancer risk reduction for women with BRCA1 mutations.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do clinical trials in Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Maryland 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 Maryland?
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 Maryland?
Most recently, we added Bionetide for Rett Syndrome, L-Citrulline for Sickle Cell Disease and SEPSys and RESCUE Scores for Sepsis Prediction to the Power online platform.
