Learn More About PowerProlonged Exposure Therapy + Medication for PTSD
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) remains a salient and debilitating problem, in the general population and for military veterans in particular. Several psychological and pharmacological treatments for PTSD have evidence to support their efficacy. However, the lack of comparative effectiveness data for PTSD treatments remains a major gap in the literature, which limits conclusions that can be drawn about which of these treatments work best. The current study will compare the effectiveness of PTSD treatments with the strongest evidentiary support - Prolonged Exposure (PE) therapy and pharmacotherapy with paroxetine or venlafaxine - as well as the combination of these two treatments. A randomized trial will be conducted with a large, diverse sample of veterans with PTSD (N = 300) recruited from 6 VA Medical Centers throughout the US. Participants will complete baseline assessments, followed by an active treatment phase (involving up to 14 sessions of PE and/or medication management) with mid (7 week) and posttreatment (14 week) assessments, and follow-up assessments at 27 and 40 weeks. Study outcomes will include PTSD severity, depression, quality of life and functioning, assessed via clinical ratings and self-report measures. Further, a range of demographic and clinically relevant variables (e.g., trauma type/number, resilience) will be collected at baseline and examined as potential predictors or moderators of treatment response, addressing another gap in the PTSD treatment literature. These data will be used to develop algorithms from predicting the optimal treatment for individual patients (i.e., "personalized advantage indices"; PAIs). Effectiveness of the treatments will be compared using multilevel modeling. PAIs will be developed by conducting bootstrapped analyses to select variables that predict or moderate outcomes (clinician rated PTSD severity at Week 14), followed by jacknife analyses to determine the magnitude of the predicted difference (representing an individual's "predicted advantage" of one treatment over the others).

Pimavanserin vs. Quetiapine for Psychosis in Parkinson's Disease
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) sometimes experience symptoms affecting their movement, such as slowness, tremor, stiffness, and balance or walking problems. Many patients also have other symptoms not related to movement, called non-motor symptoms, which may affect one's mood or emotions, memory or thinking, or cause one to see or hear things that aren't real (hallucinations) or believe things that aren't true (delusions). Hallucinations or delusions, together called psychosis, occur in up to 60% of PD patients at some point in time. Parkinson's disease psychosis can sometimes be associated with decreased quality of life, increased nursing home placement, increased rate of death, and greater caregiver burden. There are approximately 50,000 Veterans with Parkinson's disease receiving care in the VA, and up to 30,000 (60%) of them will experience psychosis at some point in time.
Quetiapine is an antipsychotic drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that is the most commonly used medication to treat PD psychosis, but more studies are needed to determine if it works for this condition and is also well tolerated and safe. Pimavanserin is a newer antipsychotic drug approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) specifically to treat PD psychosis, but more studies are needed to determine if it works and its safety.
The purpose of this research is to gather additional information on the safety and effectiveness of both Quetiapine and Pimavanserin. By doing this study, the investigators hope to learn which of these medications is the most effective course of treatment for people with PD psychosis.

Surgiphor for Shoulder Replacement Surgery
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Bacteria is occasionally present in the shoulder during shoulder arthroplasty surgery and is hypothesized to increase the risk of failure of the prosthesis. Surgiphor (sterile Povidone-Iodine) wound irrigation, is a solution used in orthopaedic surgery and other surgical fields to kill bacteria intraoperatively. The Iodine dissociates from complex and has antimicrobial properties, causing cell death of bacteria, fungi, and viruses through interactions with proteins, nucleotides, and fatty acids in the cytoplasm and cytoplasmic membrane.
This study examines the use of Povidone-Iodine during primary shoulder arthroplasty.

Exparel vs Dexamethasone for Rotator Cuff Surgery Pain
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Effective and safe control of pain after shoulder surgery is an important component of the post-surgical process. Patients who are comfortable in the early period after surgery are more satisfied with their experience and are better able to participate in rehabilitation exercises during their stay in the hospital. As surgeons and health care systems in the United States find themselves in the middle of an opioid epidemic, it is necessary to discover different options to provide patients pain relief that are both effective and safe in an effort to decrease the amount of pain medication used.

Why Other Patients Applied
"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."

CD45RA Depleted Stem Cell Addback for Leukemia
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
The major morbidities of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using donors that are not human leukocyte antigen (HLA) matched siblings are graft vs host disease (GVHD) and life- threatening infections. T cell receptor alpha beta (TCRαβ) T lymphocyte depletion and CD19+ B lymphocyte depletion of alternative donor hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) grafts is effective in preventing GVHD, but immune reconstitution may be delayed, increasing the risk of infections. The central hypothesis of this study is that an addback of CD45RO memory T lymphocytes, derived from a fraction of the original donor peripheral stem cell product depleted of CD45RA naïve T lymphocytes, will accelerate immune reconstitution and help decrease the risk of infections in TCRab/CD19 depleted PSCT.

Aspirin for High-Risk Pregnancies
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Aspirin is recommended in high risk patients to reduce the risk of preeclampsia and preterm birth, which are leading causes of both maternal and neonatal morbidity and mortality, but up to 20% will have these adverse outcomes despite therapy. Gaps in knowledge regarding pregnancy specific aspirin pharmacology and the relationship of aspirin response and pregnancy outcome, along with a lack of consensus on aspirin dosing has limited the effective use of this intervention. The investigators aim to apply principles of clinical pharmacology to determine how to optimally utilize this low cost medication to improve maternal/child health outcomes. This is a Phase I/II randomized controlled trial of high risk pregnancies recommended aspirin; participants will be randomized to take aspirin either 162mg once daily, or 81mg twice a day. Outcomes evaluated will include the difference in aspirin response between these two dosing regimens, the individual factors that impact aspirin pharmacology in pregnancy, and evaluate markers or aspirin response that may be associated with pregnancy outcome.

Niraparib + Temozolomide for Small Cell Lung Cancer
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Randomized phase 2, multicenter, biomarker directed clinical trial with a safety lead-in to assess the efficacy of Stenoparib plus Temozolomide (TMZ) in relapsed Small Cell Lung Cancer patients. Participants will receive either a combination of oral Stenoparib at the highest tolerated dose with oral Temozolomide 40mg daily or standard of care Lurbinectedin for 21-day cycles. The Dose limiting toxicity period will be 1 cycle of 21 days. This study will explore if the biomarkers the investigators test predict sensitivity to the combination of Stenoparib plus TMZ and therefore leads to a better treatment response. There are two potential tests of biomarkers that can predict who would benefit from the oral combination of Stenoparib with Temozolomide (TMZ), but they have not been evaluated. This study will test for this sensitivity using a biomarker (found in the blood that may be related to how a person reacts to a drug). The study will include 9 participants for the safety evaluation of the Stenoparib+TMZ group and 5 participants for the standard of care Lurbinectedin safety group. We will first determine safety dose for the experiment arm which, will include 3 groups with 3 participants in each group. Three doses of Stenoparib will be evaluated for toxicity. The initial starting dose of Stenoparib will be 200mg po QD. Once the maximum tolerated dose has been determined, participants will be assigned to one of the two groups in the phase 2 portion. Group 1 will be patients that test negative for the biomarker and will receive treatment with Lurbinectedin as per standard of care guidelines. Group 2 will be patients that test positive for the biomarker that will be randomly assigned to either the combination of Stenoparib plus Temozolomide (TMZ) or Lurbinectedin.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do clinical trials in Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA 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 Philadelphia, PA?
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 Philadelphia, PA?
Most recently, we added LevoCept for Birth Control, Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors for Aicardi-Goutières Syndrome and Niraparib + Temozolomide for Small Cell Lung Cancer to the Power online platform.
