This investigator-initiated study will serve as a sub-study for the American College of Rheumatology-sponsored VERVE protocol currently funded by the NIH. This double-blinded multicenter randomized pragmatic trial is designed to determine whether Zostavax or Shingrix are safe and effective in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) currently using anti-tumor necrosis factor (TNF) therapies. Inclusion/exclusion criteria for this sub-study mirror that of the parent VERVE trial with the exception of abatacept therapy being allowed. Preliminary data from the VERVE parent protocol enrolling patients using anti-TNF therapy is encouraging in that few patients experienced adverse events (56 adverse events in 50 participants, out of 140 participants in total) and that 96.2% of these adverse events were considered either mild or moderate. Importantly, there have been no instances of vaccine dissemination or zoster events to date.

TMS for Neuropathic Pain

San Francisco, California
Chronic neuropathic pain is defined as pain caused by a lesion or disease of the somatosensory nervous system. It is highly prevalent, debilitating, and challenging to treat. Current available treatments have low efficacy, high side effect burden, and are prone to misuse and dependence. Emerging evidence suggests that the transition from acute to chronic neuropathic pain is associated with reorganization of central brain circuits involved in pain processing. Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a promising alternative treatment that uses focused magnetic pulses to non-invasively modulate brain activity, a strategy that can potentially circumvent the adverse effects of available treatments for pain. RTMS is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depressive disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and migraine, and has been shown to reduce pain scores when applied to the contralateral motor cortex (M1). However, available studies of rTMS for chronic neuropathic pain typically show variable and often short-lived benefits, and many aspects of optimal treatment remain unknown, including ideal rTMS stimulation parameters, duration of treatment, and relationship to the underlying pain etiology. Here the investigators propose to evaluate the efficacy of high frequency rTMS to M1, the region with most evidence of benefit in chronic neuropathic pain, and to use functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) to identify alternative rTMS targets for participants that do not respond to stimulation at M1. The central aim is to evaluate the pain relieving efficacy of multi-session high-frequency M1 TMS for pain. In secondary exploratory analyses, the investigator propose to investigate patient characteristic that are predictive of responsive to M1 rTMS and identify viable alternative stimulation targets in non-responders to M1 rTMS.

Virtual Reality Therapy for Vertigo

Vancouver, British Columbia
This parallel-group randomized controlled trial aims to determine if the location of the lesion(s) in the vestibular system (unilateral versus bilateral, lateral semi-circular canal versus otolith) impacts the effectiveness of adjunct take-home head-mounted display (HMD) virtual reality (VR) therapy in improving patient symptomatology. Fifty patients meeting inclusion criteria will be recruited from the principal investigator's neurotology clinic. Baseline symptomatology questionnaires will be completed, followed by random allocation to virtual reality and control groups. Vestibular rehabilitation and virtual reality protocols will be adhered to for 4 to 8 weeks, followed by symptomatology questionnaires. Data analysis will be conducted to answer the study's objectives.

This is a two-phase study that compares performance growth pre-implant with current hearing aid (HA) technology versus post-implant with a cochlear implant (CI) in children with either asymmetric hearing loss (AHL) or single-sided deafness (SSD). Post-implant performance with a CI alone is expected to outperform pre-implant performance with a HA. The study also evaluates the effectiveness of bimodal hearing defined as a CI in the poor ear and a HA in the better ear for AHL or a CI in the poor ear and normal hearing in the better ear for SSD compared to pre-implant performance. The study examines factors contributing to CI outcomes.

Pretomanid for Kidney Failure

Saint Louis, Missouri
This is a Phase 1, open-label, single-dose, sequential group study to compare the safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of pretomanid in the following groups of participants: 1) participants with severe renal impairment including those with end stage renal disease (ESRD) not on dialysis, and participants with mild or moderate renal impairment, designated as Groups 2, 3, and 4, respectively; and 2) participants with normal renal function matched to the above renal impairment groups, designated as Groups 1A, 1B, and 1C, respectively. The study will be conducted following a reduced PK study design in Part A. Part A will enroll participants from Group 1A (i.e., 6 healthy matched controls) and Group 2 (i.e., 6 participants with severe renal impairment and ESRD, not on dialysis). A decision to proceed to Part B will be made after the PK of pretomanid, and safety in participants enrolled in Part A have been reviewed. If Part A demonstrates at least a 50% increase in pretomanid area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC) in Group 2 (severe renal impairments and ESRD, not on dialysis) relative to the exposures in Group 1A (matched participants with normal renal function), then the reduced PK study will extend to the full PK study to enroll participants into Part B (i.e., to investigate mild and moderate renal impairment). All Part B groups (1B, 1C, 3, and 4) will be enrolled concurrently. If the reduced PK study shows at least a 50% increase in AUC in patients with severe renal impairment and patients with ESRD not yet on dialysis relative to the matched healthy controls, a "full PK" renal impairment study in patients with all intermediate levels of renal function impairment should be conducted. Otherwise, no further study is recommended. The approximate patient involvement will be 3 months. The primary objective is to evaluate the PK profiles of pretomanid in plasma and urine after a single oral dose of 200 mg in participants with renal impairment compared to matched healthy controls.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Shingles 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 Shingles 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 Shingles 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 Shingles 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 Shingles 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 Shingles clinical trials ?

Most recently, we added Adductor Canal Block for ACL Tear, Cochlear Implant Programming for Unilateral Hearing Loss and Dapagliflozin for Fontan Circulation to the Power online platform.
