Cleveland, Ohio
Readmission rates for patients with hepatic encephalopathy due to end stage liver disease are high. Hyperammonemia contributes significantly to encephalopathy and occurs because of impaired hepatic ureagenesis and increased skeletal muscle proteolysis. We propose a randomized, 6-month nutritional intervention in cirrhotic patients who have had at least 1 admission for hepatic encephalopathy within the last 6 months. We hypothesize that a combination of late evening and early morning protein supplement (Ensure Enlive) will decrease recurrent hepatic encephalopathy and consequent readmission rates by lowering skeletal muscle proteolysis and improved lean body mass.

Nutritional Supplementation for Lung Transplant Complications
Baltimore, Maryland
This non-randomized pilot study aims to investigate whether a protein rich nutritional shake (Ensure Enlive) given to patients pre-transplant will decrease skeletal muscle loss (measured by quadriceps ultrasound) and improve nutritional state (measured by Nutritional Risk Index). A nutritional supplement would be a cost-effective solution to treat malnutrition, a known risk factor implicated in poor outcomes for lung transplant recipients.

Multimodal Prehabilitation for Lung Cancer Surgery
Montreal, Quebec
The main objective of this randomized controlled trial (RCT) is to investigate whether a multimodal prehabilitation intervention combining a mixed-nutrient supplement with structured exercise training (MM) or the supplement alone (NUT), against a placebo (CTRL), leads to improvement in functional capacity and postoperative outcomes in surgical patients with lung cancer, at nutritional risk. This will be tested in a single centre RCT of 3 parallel arms, double-blinded for the supplement. Female and male participants (n=168, \>=45 y) will be randomized to a 10-week intervention spanning 4 weeks pre-surgery and 6 weeks post-hospital discharge. The primary outcome is functional capacity as measured by the 6-minute walk test. Secondary outcomes include muscle mass, quality and strength, quality of life, length of hospital stay, and postoperative complications.

Nutritional Supplement for Lung Cancer
Edmonton, Alberta
People with non-small cell lung cancer are at risk for nutritional deficiencies.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects a nutritional product has on patient's response to immunotherapy or combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy. To do this, some of the participants will get the nutritional product and some will receive a placebo (a substance that looks like the study drug but does not have any active or medicinal ingredients). A placebo is used to make the results of the study more reliable.
Participants will be randomized to any of the following treatment groups:
- Group 1 (Experimental intervention): standard intervention of immunotherapy or combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy plus the experimental intervention nutritional product.
Group 2 (Non-experimental intervention): standard intervention of immunotherapy or combination of immunotherapy and chemotherapy plus the non-experimental intervention placebo product.
Participants will take 5 capsules each day by mouth, starting on the first day of immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy and stopping upon completion of their immunotherapy with or without chemotherapy treatment.
Participants will complete a diary of their nutritional/ placebo product intake and will undergo the following assessments:
* Physical examination.
* Height and weight.
* ECOG status (the physician will record the impact on the cancer on daily living abilities).
* Concomitant medications recording.
* Adverse Event Assessment
* Computed tomography (CT) scan. A series of x-rays of the body from many angles that are turned into 3-dimensional pictures on a screen.
* Quality of life questionnaires.
* Blood collection

Why Other Patients Applied
"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."

"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."
ZS
Depression PatientAge: 51
"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 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."

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 Nutritional Supplementation for Lung Transplant Complications, Multimodal Prehabilitation for Lung Cancer Surgery and Nutritional Supplement for Lung Cancer to the Power online platform.Popular Searches
