VTP-1000 for Celiac Disease

Baltimore, Maryland
GLU001 is a first-in-human clinical trial to assess the safety and tolerability of VTP-1000 for adults with celiac disease. This trial will assess VTP-1000 at various dose levels compared to placebo in a single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) format. Participants will be followed for a short period of time to assess the impact of VTP-1000 on their immune system (Adverse events, reactions in the blood, and physical exam differences). Participants enrolled in the MAD portion of the trial will undergo a gluten challenge to assess the impact exposure to gluten has on participants after administration of VTP-1000.

Behavioral Intervention for Celiac Disease

District of Columbia, District of Columbia
Celiac disease (CD) is a chronic autoimmune condition whose only currently available treatment is a strict, burdensome gluten-free diet (GFD). The current proposal uses a theory-driven empirical approach for optimizing the GFD for teens and their parents by targeting knowledge, behavior, and coping skills through educational and cognitive-behavioral techniques. Integration with telehealth and SMS (short message service; "text") technology for delivering the intervention has the potential to reduce barriers to specialized treatment at both early and later stages of implementation. The proposed research will refine and test a behavioral intervention for teens with CD and their parents using an iterative stakeholder-centered design. It will consist of a small pilot randomized control trial (RCT) (n=96 dyads) that will examine the preliminary efficacy of the intervention and its impact on quality of life and GFD management by targeting self-efficacy, illness identity, and food-related activities. This work has the potential to make a lasting impact on the standards of care and available treatments to optimize CD management in youth and their families.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Celiac Disease clinical trials in Baltimore, MD 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 Celiac Disease clinical trials in Baltimore, MD 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 Celiac Disease trials in Baltimore, MD 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 Baltimore, MD for Celiac Disease 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 Baltimore, MD 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 Celiac Disease medical study in Baltimore, MD ?

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.
