The purpose of this research study is to determine if rifampin, an antibiotic (a medicine that treats infections), is effective in treating osteomyelitis (infection of the bone) of the foot in diabetic patients. Despite use of powerful antibiotics prescribed over a long period of time, many diabetic patients remain at a high risk for needing an amputation of part of the foot or lower leg because the osteomyelitis is not cured. Some small research studies have shown that addition of rifampin to other antibiotics is effective in treating osteomyelitis in both diabetics and non-diabetics. However, because few diabetics with osteomyelitis have been studied, there is no definite proof that it is better than the usual treatments for diabetic patients. If this study finds that adding rifampin to the usual antibiotics prescribed for osteomyelitis reduces the risk for amputations, doctors will be able to more effectively treat many Veteran patients with this serious infection. Improving treatment outcomes is an important healthcare goal of the VA.

NTM therapy consists of a multi-drug macrolide based regimen for 18-24 months. Treated patients frequently experience debilitating side effects, and many patients delay the start of antibiotic treatment due to these risks. Common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, and fatigue, and rare but serious toxicities include ocular toxicity, hearing loss, and hematologic toxicity. To date, most of the evidence underlying the current treatment recommendations has come from observational studies in which either a macrolide has been combined with rifampin and ethambutol, or in some cases combined with ethambutol alone. The proposed study will answer whether a third drug is necessary or whether taking two drugs can increase tolerability without a substantial loss of efficacy.

Our study rationale is based on: 1. Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT) is given to healthy people and needs to be safe; 2. Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT) with shorter regimens are superior with respect to acceptance, completion, and costs; 3. 4 months of Rifampin 10mg/kg (4R10) is the safest regimen, but is completed by \<80% of patients; 4. The safety of 2 months of Rifampin 20mg/kg (2R20) is similar to that of 4 months of Rifampin 10mg/kg (4R10), but completion is a concern; 5. 1-month regimens have promising efficacy; 6. Safety and tolerability must be carefully assessed with comparisons to 4 months of Rifampin 10mg/kg (4R10), and head-to-head with each other. OBJECTIVES: The investigator will use a Bayesian adaptive Phase 2 randomized open-label trial design to test at least three experimental Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT) regimens to identify at least one regimen of ≤2 months duration that has non-inferior safety, completion, and tolerability in adults and children relative to the reference Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT) regimen. The shortest, safest, and best tolerated regimen identified in this Phase 2 trial will be tested for effectiveness and efficacy in a Phase 3 trial. Specific Tuberculosis Preventive Treatment (TPT) regimens (All are daily and self-administered) Reference: Rifampin at a dose of 10 mg/kg/day for 4 months (4R10); Experimental: 1) Rifampin at 20 mg/kg/day for 2 months (2R20); (2) one month Levofloxacin and Rifapentine (1LP). At a later stage a 3rd experimental regimen will be selected and added: one another novel 1-2-month regimen identified from pre-clinical and clinical studies. When selected, this will be explained fully including preliminary data on safety and efficacy in an amended protocol and consent - which will be submitted for ethics and regulatory approval at that time).

The purpose of this study is to determine whether one or two 17-week regimens of tuberculosis treatment bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z)-- (BMZ) plus either Rifabutin (Rb) or Delamanid (D or DLM) are as effective as a standard six-month regimen for treatment of pulmonary tuberculosis (TB). All three regimens are administered daily, seven days each week. The first 17-week regimen is 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z), (BMZ) plus rifabutin (Rb) (BMZRB) followed by 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M) and Rifabutin (Rb) (2 BMZRb/2 BMRb, Arm 1) The Second 17-week regimen is 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M), pyrazinamide (Z), (BMZ) plus delamanid (D or DLM); (BMZD) followed by 2 months of bedaquiline (B or BDQ), moxifloxacin (M) and delamanid (D or DLM) (2 BMZD/2 BMD, Arm 2) The standard 26-week treatment control regimen which is two months of isoniazid, rifampin, ethambutol, and pyrazinamide (2HRZE) followed by four months of isoniazid and rifampin (4HR); (2HRZE/4HR, Arm 3) Target enrollment is 288 male and female participants (96/arm). participants. Participants will be followed until 78 weeks post-randomization, or until the last enrolled participant completes 52 weeks post-randomization, whichever comes first.

Why Other Patients Applied

"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."

"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 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 Shorter Regimens for Latent Tuberculosis, Short-course TB Drug Regimens for Tuberculosis and Hypertonic Saline for Nontuberculous Mycobacterial Lung Disease to the Power online platform.
