Chicago, Illinois
The purpose of this study is to find how much hyaluronidase should be used when receiving injections of fillers.
No Placebo Group
Trial Details
Trial Status:Active Not Recruiting
Trial Phase:Early Phase 1
Age:18 - 65
Key Eligibility Criteria
Disqualifiers:Pregnancy, Mental Illness, Scarring, Others
Must Not Be Taking:Accutane
5 Participants Needed
Hyaluronidase for Muscle Spasms
Baltimore, Maryland
This trial tests if using a special enzyme can help people who have stiff arm muscles after a stroke. The enzyme works by reducing substances that cause muscle tightness, which may improve arm movement and strength. This new therapy aims to reduce muscle stiffness by breaking down certain substances in the muscles.

Trial Phase:Phase 2
Key Eligibility Criteria
Disqualifiers:Parkinson's, ALS, MS, Others
Must Not Be Taking:Botulinum Toxin, Baclofen, Phenol, Others

Hyaluronidase for Stroke-Related Shoulder Pain
Baltimore, Maryland
Shoulder pain is extremely common after stroke and occurs in 30-70% of patients. The pain may begin as early as one week after stroke, although peak onset and severity occurs around four months, and persists into the chronic stage. Chronic post stroke shoulder pain (PSSP) interferes with motor recovery, decreases quality of life, and contributes to depression. PSSP is thought to be caused mainly by damage to the myofascial tissues around the shoulder joint. Interestingly, an MRI study in patients with PSSP showed that the degree of structural damage to the muscles did not correlate with the degree of pain. Thus, the pathophysiology of myofascial dysfunction and pain in PSSP has not been elucidated leading to missed opportunities for early diagnosis and variable success with pain management.
The accumulation of hyaluronic acid (HA) in muscle and its fascia can cause myofascial dysfunction. HA is a glycosaminoglycan (GAG) consisting of long-chain polymers of disaccharide units of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine and is a chief constituent of the extracellular matrix of muscle. In physiologic quantities, HA functions as a lubricant and a viscoelastic shock absorber, enabling force transmission during contraction and stretch. Reduced joint mobility and spasticity result in focal accumulation and alteration of HA in muscle. This can lead to the development of stiff areas and taut bands, dysfunctional gliding of deep fascia and muscle layers, reduced range of motion (ROM), and pain. However, the association of muscle HA accumulation with PSSP has not been established.
The investigators have quantified the concentration of HA in muscle using T1rho (T1ρ) MRI and found that T1ρ relaxation time is increased in post stroke shoulder pain and stiffness. Furthermore, dynamic US imaging using shear strain mapping can quantify dysfunctional gliding of muscle that may generate pain during ROM. Myofascial dysfunction can result in non-painful reduction in ROM (latent PSSP), which may become painful due to episodic overuse injury producing greater shear dysfunction (active PSSP). Hence, shear strain mapping may differentiate between latent versus active PSSP. Thus, quantitative Motor Recovery (MR) and US imaging may serve as useful biomarkers to elucidate the pathophysiology of myofascial dysfunction.

Anti-VEGF Therapy for Thyroid Eye Disease
Boston, Massachusetts
This trial is testing the safety of injecting a medication called aflibercept, mixed with either a saltwater solution or an enzyme, around the eyes of patients with acute Thyroid Eye Disease. The goal is to see if this treatment can safely reduce swelling and inflammation. Patients will receive multiple injections and be monitored for any side effects. Aflibercept has been used in various retinal diseases, including macular edema and age-related macular degeneration.

Why Other Patients Applied
"I've tried several different SSRIs over the past 23 years with no luck. Some of these new treatments seem interesting... haven't tried anything like them before. I really hope that one could work."

Depression PatientAge: 51
"My orthopedist recommended a half replacement of my right knee. I have had both hips replaced. Currently have arthritis in knee, shoulder, and thumb. I want to avoid surgery, and I'm open-minded about trying a trial before using surgery as a last resort."
HZ
Arthritis PatientAge: 78
"I've been struggling with ADHD and anxiety since I was 9 years old. I'm currently 30. I really don't like how numb the medications make me feel. And especially now, that I've lost my grandma and my aunt 8 days apart, my anxiety has been even worse. So I'm trying to find something new."
FF
ADHD PatientAge: 31
"As a healthy volunteer, I like to participate in as many trials as I'm able to. It's a good way to help research and earn money."
IZ
Healthy Volunteer PatientAge: 38
"I changed my diet in 2020 and I’ve lost 95 pounds from my highest weight (283). I am 5’3”, female, and now 188. I still have a 33 BMI. I've been doing research on alternative approaches to continue my progress, which brought me here to consider clinical trials."

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do 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 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 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 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 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 clinical trials ?
Most recently, we added Hyaluronidase for Stroke-Related Shoulder Pain, Hyaluronidase for Muscle Spasms and Anti-VEGF Therapy for Thyroid Eye Disease to the Power online platform.Popular Searches
