Breakthrough Medication
Endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography (ERCP) is an essential procedure that can be complicated by post-ERCP pancreatitis (PEP). Indomethacin and ketorolac are two medications used to prevent PEP. The main reason for this research study is to compare the effectiveness these drugs at reducing rates of PEP. There have been no studies comparing the effectiveness of these medications in preventing PEP in pediatric patients. You are being asked to take part in this research study because you are scheduled to have an ERCP as part of your medical care.

This trial uses a combination of two drugs, vinblastine and prednisone, to treat children with Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis. The treatment works by stopping abnormal cell growth and reducing inflammation. Vinblastine and prednisone have been used in various combinations to treat Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis (LCH) with some success in managing symptoms and achieving remission.

Indomethacin for Premature Birth

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
In Canada, about 900 babies each year are born very early (\<26 weeks of gestation) and have a high chance of dying or having a serious bleed in the brain. Families of these extremely preterm babies consider preventing severe brain bleeding as critical to their child's health and well-being. A medicine called indomethacin, when given intravenously in 3-doses, is known to reduce severe brain bleeding. But use of this drug is variable among clinicians working in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) due to (a) its side effects on the gut; (b) possible harm when used with other medications; (c) a notion that despite reducing brain bleeds, the child's long-term brain development is not improved. Emerging evidence suggests that a single low-dose indomethacin regimen may be equally effective in reducing severe brain bleeding as compared to a traditional 3-dose regimen. The investigators propose a blinded randomized controlled trial, a study design where babies born \<26 weeks will be randomly assigned within 12 hours of birth to either a single dose of intravenous indomethacin or similar looking placebo in the form a saline solution. The study will test if a single dose indomethacin regimen is effective in improving survival of these babies without the devastating complication of severe brain bleeding. In this study the care providers and researchers will be unaware as to which baby receives indomethacin and which baby receives placebo to ensure no one's expectations or biases can influence the results. The investigators will conduct the study in multiple NICUs across Canada, the United States and Australia and will enroll 500 babies born \<26 weeks or \<750 g birth weight over a period of 3 years. This study will help the investigators determine in the most unbiased way whether a single dose of indomethacin given immediately after birth in the smallest babies born \<26 weeks of gestation can safely and effectively reduce severe brain bleeding.

This trial is testing if taking oral tacrolimus before a specific medical procedure can prevent pancreatitis. The study focuses on patients who are at risk of developing pancreatitis after this procedure. Tacrolimus works by stopping the release of substances in the pancreas that cause inflammation. Tacrolimus has been studied for its potential to prevent pancreatitis after this procedure by reducing inflammation.

Twenty-six otherwise healthy adults between 18-40 years of age composed of 13 males and 13 females will be enrolled in this study to determine how sex and sex hormones influence cerebral blood flow (CBF) control in healthy young adults without confounds of age or disease. Participants can expect to be on study for approximately 16 days.

This trial is comparing ibuprofen and indomethacin to see which one is better at helping pregnant women with cervical insufficiency keep their pregnancy longer when a stitch is placed in the cervix. Indomethacin and ibuprofen are both used to help prevent early labor, but ibuprofen has fewer side effects.

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."

"I have dealt with voice and vocal fold issues related to paralysis for over 12 years. This problem has negatively impacted virtually every facet of my life. I am an otherwise healthy 48 year old married father of 3 living. My youngest daughter is 12 and has never heard my real voice. I am now having breathing issues related to the paralysis as well as trouble swallowing some liquids. In my research I have seen some recent trials focused on helping people like me."

"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."

"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."

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 Indomethacin for Premature Birth, Hormone Effects on Brain Blood Flow and Indomethacin + Tacrolimus to Prevent Post-ERCP Pancreatitis to the Power online platform.
