This trial is testing naproxen, a common pain reliever, in people with painful knee osteoarthritis. Naproxen helps reduce swelling and pain by blocking certain chemicals in the body. Participants will receive naproxen to compare its effects. Naproxen has been shown to be an effective and well-tolerated drug for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the hip and knee in previous studies.

This study is designed to track brain functional changes in individuals with i) chronic back pain + opioid use (CBP+O) and individuals with ii) chronic back pain + opioid misuse disorder (CBP+mOUD) following a brief drug delay and re-exposure manipulation. Re-exposure could be placebo, the participant's own opioid dose, or a dopaminergic treatment (DA+NSAID). The participants will be also evaluated for changes in cognition, emotion, and motor abilities with opioid delay and re-exposure to placebo, opioid, or DA+NSAID.

NSAIDs for Menstrual Cramps

Evanston, Illinois
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if NSAIDs (i.e. naproxen sodium) can treat menstrual pain and prevent the development of chronic pelvic pain in menstruating adults with painful periods. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Can non-menstrual pelvic pain reduction be predicted by menstrual pain response to NSAIDs? * Will participants with the largest reductions in multi-site sensitivity following NSAID therapy have the largest reductions in non-menstrual pelvic pain? Researchers will compare naproxen sodium to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if naproxen sodium works to treat painful periods. Participants will: * Take naproxen sodium or placebo during several days of their menstrual period every month for 1 year. * Complete computer questionnaires and tests from home every 3 months. * Complete at-home urine tests to measure hormones every few days for 1-year. * Use a pin-prick to collect a small spot of blood, and use a pad or tampon to collect a sample of menstrual blood, and bring it to the research site twice over a 1-year period. * Come to the research site twice over a 1-year period to complete sensory assessments and undergo a blood draw. The major goal of the study is to develop a multivariable statistical model (see https://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-NS-24-021.html ) describing the factors that effectiveness of pain medication and risk for chronic pain

The purpose of this randomized controlled trial is to determine if patients who receive non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) following elective lumbar spinal fusion have increased rates of symptomatic nonunion requiring revision spinal surgery at two-years follow-up, compared to those who do not receive NSAIDs.

NSAIDs for Menstrual Pain

Belmont, Massachusetts
Menstrual pain is the most common gynecological complaint and the leading cause of school and work absences in reproductive-age girls and women. One of the primary treatments for menstrual pain is use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs; over-the-counter medications such as naproxen, ibuprofen, or aspirin), although up to 18% of women do not get pain relief from these medications. One reason for this may be due to central sensitization of pain, which is when alterations in the central nervous system change how pain is processed in the brain and experienced. Determining the role of central sensitization in menstrual pain is important because central sensitization is associated with the development of chronic pain. Understanding the relationship between NSAID response and central sensitization is important because it could indicate women who may go on to develop chronic pain later in life. This study would directly address this question. Identifying women at risk for chronic pain would help target new treatments to this vulnerable group to ideally prevent pain from becoming chronic. This is particularly important for women in the military because the severity of menstrual pain is associated with missed work, such that in active-duty military women, less than 4.4% with mild menstrual pain missed work, whereas 20.7% of women with moderate to severe menstrual pain missed work. Addressing the significant impact of menstrual pain for military women will help reducing suffering and potentially decrease the risk of developing future chronic pain problems in this population.

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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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 NSAIDs for Menstrual Cramps, Pain Medications for Postoperative Pain After Spinal Fusion and NSAIDs for Menstrual Pain to the Power online platform.
