Olanzapine for Cancer-Related Nausea and Vomiting
Columbus, Ohio
Chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) are among the most bothersome symptoms during cancer treatment according to children and their parents. Most children receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy (HEC), including those receiving hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) conditioning, experience CIV despite receiving antiemetic prophylaxis. Olanzapine improves CINV control in adult cancer patients, has a track record of safe use in children with psychiatric illness, does not interact with chemotherapy and is inexpensive. We hypothesize that the addition of olanzapine to standard antiemetics will improve chemotherapy-induced vomiting (CIV) control in children receiving highly emetogenic chemotherapy

Olanzapine for Anorexia in Head and Neck Cancer
Buffalo, New York
This phase II trial compares the effect of adding olanzapine to standard of care symptom management for nausea to standard of care alone in managing an abnormal loss of the appetite for food (anorexia) in patients treated with chemoradiation therapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer. Patients undergoing CRT may experience treatment-related side effects, including pain, nausea, and a discomfort in the ability to speak, swallow and eat. These side effects have been shown to increase weight loss, opiate use and hospitalization. Olanzapine is a drug used to treat certain mental disorders. It is also being studied in the treatment of nausea and vomiting caused by some cancer treatments. It is a type of anti-psychotic and a type of monoamine antagonist. Adding olanzapine to standard of care symptom management to limit nausea may be more effective than standard of care alone in managing anorexia in head and neck cancer patients during CRT.

Extended Antipsychotic Dosing for Schizophrenia
Toronto, Ontario
The study wishes to examine whether "extended" antipsychotic treatment, in this case, antipsychotic treatment every other day, is as effective as daily treatment. It is also evaluating whether there may be differences in terms of side effects.
Participants will be randomly assigned to either the treatment as usual group (i.e., taking antipsychotic daily) or the extended dosing group (i.e., taking antipsychotic one day on, one day off). That means, like flipping a coin, there is a 50/50 chance that participants will continue on daily dosing of your antipsychotic or have it switched to every other day dosing.
This study will last for 1 year. Participants will be evaluated at the beginning and every two weeks during the first 6 months, with visits once every 4 weeks for the final 6 months. In total, participants will make 22 visits over 52 weeks to the investigator's office.
The investigators hypothesize that with ED, there will be no change in symptom severity but improvement in the frequency and severity of side effects, wellbeing, and functioning.

Antipsychotics for Insulin Resistance in Females
Toronto, Ontario
Females treated with antipsychotics have higher rates of comorbid metabolic syndrome than males. Despite this, females have historically been excluded from many mechanistic studies due to confounding effects of menstrual cycles. Recent evidence suggests that brain insulin resistance may be an underlying mechanism through which antipsychotics may exert their metabolic side effects. This study seeks to investigate how brain insulin action differs in females according to their menstrual cycle phase, and how a high metabolic liability agent such as olanzapine might interrupt these differential insulin effects. Young healthy females will be given olanzapine and intranasal insulin to test how these treatment combinations change brain processes. Participants will be tested during both the first half of their menstrual cycle (follicular phase) and the second half of their cycle (luteal phase). The investigators predict that intranasal insulin will change MRI-based measures in females, in a comparable way to males, in the follicular phase only. Adding olanzapine will block these effects of insulin in females in the follicular phase. This investigation has the potential to generate new knowledge in an area of significant unmet need. Demonstrating that antipsychotics disrupt brain insulin action, evidenced by inhibition of recognized effects of insulin on neuroimaging measures, will provide novel insights into currently poorly understood mechanisms.

Olanzapine for Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting
Augusta, Georgia
Patients who receive a chemotherapy called melphalan are at high risk of having nausea and vomiting. A medication called olanzapine has been shown to decrease nausea and vomiting after chemotherapy. A previous research study found the 10 mg dose of olanzapine (combined with 3 standard medications used routinely to prevent nausea/vomiting) to be effective for patients who received melphalan chemotherapy, but several other studies have shown many patients have a side effect of sleepiness (e.g., sedation) with that dose of the medication. Our study will compare two lower doses of olanzapine (5 mg and 2.5 mg) in combination with the 3 standard medications used to prevent nausea/vomiting in the patients who receive melphalan chemotherapy to determine which dose is effective in preventing nausea and vomiting with the lowest amount of sleepiness side effect.

Psychopharmacological Treatment for Psychological Distress
New York, New York
This is an inpatient four-arm randomized control trial comparing single drug clonazepam (S arm), a two-drug combination clonazepam/olanzapine (D arm), and a three-drug combination clonazepam/olanzapine/buprenorphine (T arm) with treatment as usual (TAU arm) in the treatment of emotional distress, specifically the Suicide Crisis Syndrome (SCS). All participants in experimental arms receive 2-day pulse treatments targeting four out of five of the acute emotional distress symptoms. The primary outcome measure is SCS at discharge and one-month follow-up. The secondary outcome measures include questions about suicidal behaviors associated with emotional distress at a one-month follow-up.

Olanzapine for Post-Surgery Recovery
New Haven, Connecticut
The primary objective of this phase 2 randomized controlled trial is to determine whether the pre-operative administration of olanzapine (5 mg PO) improves quality of recovery (assessed by the Quality of Recovery-40 (QoR-40) survey) on postoperative day 1 in patients having ambulatory surgery with general anesthesia.
The secondary objectives of this study are to determine whether there are differences in quality of recovery on postoperative day 2, presence of post-discharge nausea, presence of severe post-discharge nausea, recovery room length of stay and opioid consumption in patients who receive the study drug versus placebo.

"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
"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 Olanzapine for Anorexia in Head and Neck Cancer, Olanzapine for Chemotherapy-Induced Nausea and Vomiting and Antipsychotics for Insulin Resistance in Females to the Power online platform.Popular Searches
