The masseter muscle is one of the muscles in the lower face used for chewing. The prominence of the masseter muscle can appear as a widened lower face which some individuals deem as aesthetically undesirable and can be treated by selectively weakening the masseter muscles with small quantities of botulinum toxin. The purpose of this study is to assess how safe and effective injection of onabotulinumtoxinA (BOTOX) is in adult participants with Masseter Muscle Prominence (MMP). BOTOX is being investigated for the treatment of Muscle Masseter Prominence. In Period 1, participants are placed in 1 of 2 groups, called treatment arms. Each group receives a different treatment, placebo or BOTOX. There is a 1 in 4 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. In Period 2, eligible participants can receive an optional open-label retreatment of BOTOX. Approximately 200 adult participants with MMP will be enrolled in the study at approximately 20 sites in the United States. Participants will receive intramuscular injections across both the right and left masseter muscle of either BOTOX or placebo on Day 1. Participants who are eligible for re-treatment will be given BOTOX injections on either the Day 180, 210, 240, or 270 visit and will be followed up for up to 6 months. There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular monthly visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, checking for side effects, and completing questionnaires.

Skeletal muscle plays several different roles in the promotion and maintenance of health and well-being. The loss of muscle mass that occurs with aging, chronic muscle wasting diseases, and physical inactivity puts people at an increased risk of frailty and becoming insulin resistant, and therefore imposes a significant burden on health care spending. Resistance exercise participation has proven particularly effective for increasing muscle mass and strength. This effectiveness can be used by health care practitioners in a rehabilitation setting to promote the recovery of individuals who have undergone involuntary periods of muscular unloading (i.e. limb immobilization caused by a sports injury or reconstructive surgery). However, there is large variability in the amount of muscle mass and strength that people gain following participation in resistance exercise. Some individuals fail to increase the size of their muscle (low responders) whereas others show vary large increases in muscle size (high responders) in response to the same resistance training program. People also show differences in the amount of muscle tissue they lose when they have a limb immobilized. To circumvent variability across individuals, the investigators utilized a within-person paired Hypertrophy and Atrophy ('HYPAT') strategy that reduced response heterogeneity by \~40% (Available at: https://ssrn.com/abstract=3445673). Specifically, one leg performed resistance training for 10 weeks to induce hypertrophy, whereas the other leg underwent single-leg immobilization for 2 weeks to induce atrophy. The primary goal of the study will be to gain insight into the molecular responses to an acute period of single-leg immobilization and resistance exercise (8 days). The investigators will use an integrated systems biology approach to monitor the individual rates of over one hundred different muscle proteins.

The prevalence of congestive heart failure (CHF) in Canada is high, representing one of the health care system's most expensive diagnoses. Despite major advances in medicine, the mortality and morbidity from CHF remains great. Currently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is used for non-invasive imaging of the cardiovascular system to enable the structure and anatomy of the organ to be visualized. However, current MRI methods have limitations when assessing and aiding in the management of CHF. A new imaging method has recently been developed that is showing great promise as a tool in the management of patients with CHF. Rapid imaging of biochemical reactions within myocytes using MRI has recently become possible through the use of the Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (DNP) and dissolution method. DNP-dissolution results in an intravenous contrast agent that is "hyperpolarized", producing a magnetic signal that is enhanced by up to 100,000 fold. The particular agent is carbon-13 labelled pyruvate. In this study, we demonstrate the first 13C-metabolic images of the human heart, along with the required hardware and data acquisition methods.

Dry Needling for Scars

Bethesda, Maryland
Scar tissue can cause serious complications that significantly impact a patient's quality of life. Common complications include stiffness and contractions, which can restrict joint mobility and make daily activities challenging. In severe cases, these limitations can even prevent patients from fulfilling their work responsibilities or engaging in activities they enjoy. The deleterious effect of scar tissue on a patient's well-being is of utmost significance. However, several therapeutic approaches have been proposed to manage scar tissue complications. Enhancing scar tissue compliance can help patients regain their functional abilities and reduce limitations. One such approach is dry needling, a technique used to improve the flexibility of myofascial tightness. Nevertheless, the effectiveness of dry needling in improving scar tissue compliance remains debatable. Therefore, this study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of dry needling on complications resulting from linear hypertrophic scars caused by surgery or trauma.

Bimatoprost for Hypopigmented Scars

Washington, District of Columbia
Patients who have hypo-pigmented burn scar will have two scars chosen and randomized to treated scar and control scar. The subject will then have both scars treated with fractional ablative CO2 laser (FLSR). The treated scar will have bimatoprost delivered through the laser channels, while the control will have the vehicle (normal saline) only delivered. The treatment will continue for 14 days with twice daily application. The scars will then be monitored at a 2-week follow-up visit where levels of melanin will be evaluated. Tissue punch biopsies will also be used to evaluate the mechanism of action of bimatoprost. Treatment will occur for 6 sessions at 4-6 week intervals including follow- up visits and evaluations.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Hypertrophy 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 Hypertrophy 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 Hypertrophy 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 for Hypertrophy 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 Hypertrophy 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 Hypertrophy clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Sotagliflozin for Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy, Pacemaker Therapy for Heart Failure and Pacemaker Testing for Bundle-Branch Block to the Power online platform.
