      Denosumab to Prevent Breast Cancer in Women With BRCA1 Mutation

      Boston, Massachusetts
      This phase III trial compares denosumab to placebo for the prevention of breast cancer in women with a BRCA1 germline mutation. A germline mutation is an inherited gene change which, in the BRCA1 gene, is associated with an increased risk of breast and other cancers. Denosumab is a monoclonal antibody that is used to treat bone loss in order to reduce the risk of bone fractures in healthy people, and to reduce new bone growths in cancer patients whose cancer has spread to their bones. Research has shown that denosumab may also reduce the risk of developing breast cancer in women carrying a BRCA1 germline mutation.

      Vitamin D3 + Omega-3 for Atrial Fibrillation

      Boston, Massachusetts
      The VITamin D and OmegA-3 TriaL (VITAL) is an ongoing randomized clinical trial of 25,871 U.S. men and women investigating whether taking daily dietary supplements of vitamin D3 (2000 IU) or omega-3 fatty acids (Omacor® fish oil, 1 gram) reduces the risk of developing cancer, heart disease, and stroke in individuals who do not have a prior history of these illnesses. The purpose of this ancillary study is to ascertain and adjudicate atrial fibrillation (AF) outcomes for the primary aim of testing whether omega-3 fatty acid and/or vitamin D supplementation influence atrial fibrillation risk in the general population. We also plan to examine how these agents might impact the development of AF subtypes (persistent versus paroxysmal), intermediate phenotypes for heart rhythm disorders (electrocardiographic parameters), as well as explore effects on arrhythmic death and whether baseline blood levels and/or race modify treatment effects.

      Chemotherapy + Immunotherapy for Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

      Boston, Massachusetts
      This randomized phase III trial studies combination chemotherapy with blinatumomab to see how well it works compared to induction chemotherapy alone in treating patients with newly diagnosed breakpoint cluster region (BCR)-c-abl oncogene 1, non-receptor tyrosine kinase (ABL)-negative B lineage acute lymphoblastic leukemia. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as blinatumomab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known whether combination chemotherapy is more effective with or without blinatumomab in treating newly diagnosed acute lymphoblastic leukemia.

      Colonoscopy for Colorectal Cancer

      Boston, Massachusetts
      Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a major burden in western countries. The disease develops from precursor lesions during a long time-interval. Colonoscopy can detect and remove CRC precursor lesions and may thus be effective for CRC prevention. Many national and international health organisations demand evidence from randomised trials to reduce incidence or mortality of the target disease before advocating population-wide cancer screening. However, while colonoscopy screening for the prevention of colorectal cancer is established in the United States and several European countries, no randomised trials exist to quantify the possible benefit of colonoscopy screening. NordICC is a randomised trial investigating the effect of colonoscopy on CRC incidence and mortality. NordICC is a multicentre, randomised trial in Nordic countries, the Netherlands and Poland. A minimum of 66 000 individuals, age 55-64 years, are drawn randomly from the population registries in the participating countries. 22 000 are invited for once-only colonoscopy (2:1 randomisation). Expected work-load with 50% compliance will be 11,000 colonoscopies. At the screening examination, all detected lesions are biopsied and removed whenever possible. The remaining 44 000 individuals (control group) are not offered any screening examination (care as usual).The primary study aims are CRC incidence and CRC mortality after 15 years of follow-up, with an interim analysis after 10 years of follow-up. In an intention-to-treat approach, a risk reduction of CRC mortality of 25% in the colonoscopy screening group compared to the control group is expected after 10 years follow-up, estimating 50% compliance in the screening group.

      [F-18]FDG-PET for MS

      Boston, Massachusetts
      Given the need for better diagnostic imaging techniques in multiple sclerosis (MS), the study aims to investigate the utility of \[F-18\]FDG positron emission tomography (PET) in MS. The study will be assessing glucose consumption patterns in subjects with progressive MS and relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), as well as healthy controls. PET will be compared to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) lesion load and brain atrophy, and serum and blood biomarkers, as well as clinical measures of physical disability, cognitive impairment, fatigue, and depression. This study's findings may pave a path for integrating \[F-18\]FDG-PET in routine clinical practice for MS, improving patient experiences and outcomes. The specific aims of the study are: Aim 1: To compare glucose consumption in the brain in subjects with progressive MS, relapsing-remitting MS (RRMS), and healthy controls, using the radiolabeled glucose analogue 18-fluorodeoxyglucose, also known as \[F-18\]FDG. Aim 2: To compare the relationship between FDG-PET and standard 3T MRI measures including global and regional brain atrophy and lesion load, and to compare FDG-PET with MRI in terms of their relationship with clinical measures of physical disability, cognitive impairment, fatigue and depression in MS subjects. Aim 3: To assess the relationship of FDG-PET with serum and blood biomarkers, including but not limited to sNfL, GFAP, IL-6, and TNFα in MS.

      AI Tool for Breast Cancer Screening

      Boston, Massachusetts
      The goal of this clinical trial is to compare patient-centered outcomes when screening digital breast tomosynthesis (DBT) exams are interpreted with versus without a leading FDA-cleared artificial intelligence (AI) decision-support tool in real-world U.S. settings and to assess patients' and radiologists' perspectives on AI in medicine. The main question it aims to answer is: Does an FDA-cleared AI decision-support tool for digital tomosynthesis (DBT) improve screening outcomes in real world US clinical settings? This trial will include all interpreting radiologists and all adult patients undergoing screening mammography at any of the participating breast imaging facilities across 6 regional health systems (University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), University of California, San Diego (UCSD), University of Washington-Seattle, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Boston Medical Center, and University of Miami) during the trial period. All screening mammograms at these facilities will be randomized to either intervention (radiologist assisted by an AI decision support tool) versus usual care (radiologist alone) to see if interpreting these mammograms with the AI tool's assistance improves patient screening outcomes. We are targeting 400,000 screening exams across the participating health systems in this trial.

      Botox for Neck Appearance

      Newton, Massachusetts
      Botulinum toxin injections have been used both in the face and neck for many years. However, injection into the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) has only been done to treat neck spasms. In this study botulinum toxin will be injected into the SCM to determine if this will result in a temporary slimming effect on the neck and produce a more feminine, youthful neck contour.

      Adderall XR for ADHD

      Boston, Massachusetts
      The investigators are conducting a 10-week brain imaging and medication study. They are doing the research to study the response of Attention-Deficit/ Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) on extended-release formulation of mixed amphetamine salts (MAS) (also know as Adderall XR). The investigators also want to find out if taking MAS has any effect on the brains of children and adolescents with ADHD and ASD. This study will help researchers better understand how the use of MAS to treat ADHD effects children and adolescents with ASD. The investigators will compare MAS to a placebo. The placebo will look exactly like the MAS capsules but will contain no MAS. During this study, participants may get a placebo instead of MAS. Placebos are used in research studies to see if the study results are due to the study drug or due to other reasons. Participants with ASD and ADHD will complete 4-weeks of treatment with the study medication or placebo. They will complete bi-weekly study visits virtually via a telemedicine platform with the study doctor and complete questionnaires. On alternating weeks, they will meet with a Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) study team member to discuss medication adherence and potential side effects. Participants will have the option to attend all study visits in-person if participants prefer. They will also complete baseline and endpoint Magnetic Resonance (MR) scan visits at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). During the MR Scan visits, they will complete a series of tasks to measure inattention, impulsivity, reward sensitivity, decision-making, and working memory. Participants without ADHD or ASD will complete eligibility screening with MGH. If eligible, they will be invited to baseline and endpoint MR scan visits at MIT. During the MR Scan visits, they will complete a series of tasks to measure inattention, impulsivity, reward sensitivity, decision-making, and working memory.

      Caffeine for Learning in Healthy Adults

      Charlestown, Massachusetts
      This research study aims to determine whether and how caffeine intake affects learning process through reward feedback compared to placebo. The data acquired from this study would improve our understanding on the consequence and mechanism of caffeine intake in the aspect of learning process. Participants will perform a reinforcement learning task (i.e. Probabilistic Selection Task) and a motor inhibition task (i.e. Go/NoGo task) in a brain scan. The scan will be done with the Siemens Biograph mMR positron emission tomography (PET)/ magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) 3 Tesla scanner. The PET allows us to see the changes in the "reward signals" - dopamine - in the brain using a radioactive dye called \[11C\]Raclopride. The MRI, on the other hand, enables us to take detailed pictures of the brain activities during cognitive tasks using a high-powered magnet. Reviewing these pictures will help us understand the influence of caffeine on reward signals and brain activities during the learning process.

      COVID-19 and Flu Vaccines for Pregnant Women

      Boston, Massachusetts
      This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study, pregnant women will be randomly assigned to receive IIV and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially (7-14 days apart). All participants will receive an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine at Visit 1 (Day 1). Solicited local and systemic symptoms of reactogenicity will be assessed on day of visit for Visits 1 and 2 and daily during the 6 days following each visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI) will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Pregnant women will be followed through delivery with comprehensive obstetric and infant outcomes obtained from medical record review for 90 days post-delivery. Maternal serum samples will be collected for antibody titers relevant to Influenza and COVID-19 prior to vaccination, at Day 29 (both groups), as well as Days 36-43 if in sequential group. When feasible, maternal blood at delivery and cord blood serum will be analyzed for serological analyses of placental influenza and COVID-19 antibody transfer (cord blood: maternal antibody ratio) will be determined.

      Lidocaine vs Bupivacaine for Postoperative Pain

      Boston, Massachusetts
      In this research study, we want to learn more about the impact of two different local anesthetics (bupivacaine and lidocaine) on patient experience following orthognathic (jaw) surgery. Both anesthetics are within the standard of care for dental and orthognathic procedures, but can vary in how quickly they take action and how long they last. This study will provide us with a greater understanding of how anesthetic choice affect patient outcomes, and how we can strive to make these outcomes as favorable as possible.

      Birth Control Pills and DNA Interaction

      New Haven, Connecticut
      The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate how differences in specific parts of our DNA can influence how individual bodies break down the hormones contained within oral contraceptive pills, which could affect how well these birth control pills work to prevent pregnancy. The investigators are also interested in exploring how these differences in our DNA can also explain why patients taking the exact same formulation of birth control pill will experience very different side effects. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Do individuals with the CYP3A7\*1C variant have increased metabolism of both desogestrel and ethinyl estradiol when taking a combined oral contraceptive pill? * Do individuals with the CYP3A7\*1C variant experience higher rates of breakthrough ovulation while taking a desogestrel/ethinyl estradiol combined oral contraceptive pill? * What novel genetic loci are associated with alterations in steroid hormone pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics among a larger cohort of combined oral contraceptive pill users? Participants will take a specific formulation of combined oral contraceptive pill (desogestrel/ethinyl estradiol) and undergo the following procedures: * Blood draw to measure the amount of progestin and estrogen in their system from the combined oral contraceptive pill * Questionnaires to assess side effects possibly caused by the combined oral contraceptive pill * Blood draw to measure endogenous hormone levels and biomarkers that may be affected by the combined oral contraceptive pill * A transvaginal ultrasound to measure any ovarian follicles (optional procedure)

      Bupivacaine for Labor Pain

      Boston, Massachusetts
      The primary objective of our study is to use a biased coin up-down allocation methodology to estimate the dose of bupivacaine required after the lidocaine test dose to achieve initial effective comfort in 90% of patients (post test-dose ED90) via the epidural (DPE or EPL) technique in women undergoing labor induction or augmentation; the investigators hypothesize that the investigators will be able to determine the post test-dose ED90 of bupivacaine for each technique with adequate precision to inform the optimal doses to study in a subsequent randomized trial comparing the analgesic effects of DPE vs. EPL. The investigators also hypothesize that the post test-dose ED90 of bupivacaine is lower with a DPE technique than with a conventional epidural technique.

      Education + Vaccination for Tdap Acceptance During Pregnancy

      Providence, Rhode Island
      The goal of this randomized control trial is to assess if prenatal vaccine education and in-office vaccination administration for non-birthing partners of pregnant patients increases Tdap vaccination rates compared to usual care. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: * To assess whether compared to standard prenatal care, targeted prenatal education regarding Tdap vaccination recommendations with and without in office vaccination opportunities improves Tdap uptake among non-birthing partners of pregnant patients. * To assess whether non-birthing partners presenting for Tdap vaccination are willing to accept dual vaccination with Tdap and influenza. Participants will receive direct verbal and written education at the time of enrollment on cocooning and recommendation for partner Tdap vaccination prior to delivery with or without the option to receive Tdap at their convenience at the WIH obstetric care clinic. If there is a comparison group: Researchers will compare "Upfront Education" and "Upfront Education and Vaccination Administration" to "Usual care" to see if education and/or the offer for vaccination in the office increases Tdap vaccine acceptance for non-birthing partners.

      Oral Semaglutide for Type 2 Diabetes

      Boston, Massachusetts
      The goal of this research study is to evaluate the pathophysiologic mechanisms by which genetic variation impacts response to an FDA-approved medication commonly used to treat type 2 diabetes called oral semaglutide (Rybelsus) and to characterize the physiological response to a mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT) before and after a 14-day treatment with oral semaglutide. The investigators will do this by measuring factors in the blood, such as sugars, fats, metabolites, and proteins, after eating a standardized breakfast meal at the first visit and after taking 14 doses of oral semaglutide over two weeks before the second study visit. The food (mixed meal breakfast) we will be studying is specially prepared to contain a set amount of protein, carbohydrates, and fat. The investigators hypothesize that understanding how the acute biochemical response to oral semaglutide differs by genetic variation will generate insight into drug mechanisms and type 2 diabetes pathophysiology.

      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.

      Bupivacaine Injection for Postoperative Pain in Breast Reduction

      Hartford, Connecticut
      The main question this randomized control trial aims to answer is: • Is the use of intraoperative subpectoral bupivacaine associated with decreased post-operative pain in adolescent patients who undergo bilateral reduction mammaplasty Participants will be randomized into the study group that intraoperatively receives 30cc of subpectoral bupivacaine injections or into the control group that intraoperatively receives 30cc of injectable saline subpectorally. All participants will keep a pain log and pain medication log at home for the first week following surgery. Researchers will compare to see if patients who receive subpectoral bupivacaine have lower pain scores in the PACU, and lower use of narcotics post-operatively when compared to the control group who receive injectable saline.

      Beta-Agonists vs Botox for Urinary Incontinence

      Providence, Rhode Island
      The goal of this clinical trial is to compare treatment outcomes between an oral medication (beta agonist) versus onabotulinumtoxinA injections in women with urgency urinary incontinence (UUI). Participants will be randomly selected to receive one of the two treatments. The primary outcome measure will be at 3 months, and women will be followed for a total of 12 months. Based on patient expert input, there are 2 primary outcomes: Treatment satisfaction and urinary symptom severity. The study will also have a long-term follow-up component (prospective cohort) including 346 participants from the parent trial to describe treatment continuation, treatment efficacy, patient direct costs and other secondary outcomes up to 5 years after treatment.

      Frequently Asked Questions

      How much do clinical trials in Massachusetts 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 in Massachusetts 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 in Massachusetts 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 in Massachusetts 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 in Massachusetts 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 in Massachusetts?

      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 in Massachusetts?

      Most recently, we added Elacestrant + Trastuzumab Deruxtecan for Breast Cancer, Tagraxofusp + Venetoclax + Azacitidine for Acute Myeloid Leukemia and Shared Decision-Making Toolkit for Breast Cancer to the Power online platform.
