Nerandomilast for Interstitial Lung Disease
Birmingham, AlabamaAdults 18 years of age and older or above legal age with lung fibrosis related to systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease can participate in this study. People can only take part if they show no improvement in lung function after standard treatment with immunosuppressant medicine. The main purpose of this study is to find out how a medicine called nerandomilast affects the lungs in people with systemic autoimmune rheumatic disease.
Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes nerandomilast tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like nerandomilast tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take a tablet 2 times a day for 26 weeks. Participants continue immunosuppressant treatment for their underlying rheumatic disease.
Participants are in the study for about 7.5 months. During this time, they visit the study site 8 times. At study visits, participants have lung function tests. At select visits, chest imaging is performed. Participants fill in questionnaires about their symptoms and quality of life. The results between the 2 groups are compared to see whether the treatment works. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

BI 1291583 for Bronchiectasis
Birmingham, AlabamaThis study is open to adults with bronchiectasis. People can participate in this study if they produce sputum and have had flare-ups (also called exacerbations).
The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 1291583 helps people with bronchiectasis. Participants are put into 2 groups randomly, which means by chance. One group takes BI 1291583 tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. A placebo tablet looks like the BI 1291583 tablet but does not contain any medicine. Participants take 1 tablet once a day for up to 1 year and 6 months.
Participants are in the study for up to 1 year and 8 months. During this time, participants visit the study site up to 10 times and get about 13 phone calls from the site staff. Participants complete a daily diary on a smartphone about their bronchiectasis symptoms and study doctors regularly check for any changes. The study doctors document when participants experience flare-ups. The number of flare-ups is compared between the participants who receive BI 1291583 and those who receive the placebo. The study doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.

Mirena for Endometrial Hyperplasia
Birmingham, AlabamaResearchers are looking for a better way to treat women with nonatypical endometrial hyperplasia (NAEH).
Endometrial hyperplasia is a condition where the lining of the uterus (called the endometrium) becomes too thick. Nonatypical means that the condition is not cancerous. It is often caused by hormone imbalances in women. Symptoms can include abnormal vaginal bleeding or irregular periods. If this condition is not treated, then it may lead to cancer.
Currently, oral progestins (OP) which are progesterone (female hormone) capsules taken by mouth, are used to treat NAEH. However, there is still a need for other treatments due to unmet needs.
The study treatment, Mirena (also known as BAY 865028), is already available as a type of birth control device. It is inserted into the uterus where it gradually releases progesterone.
In this study, researchers want to find out if Mirena works for women with NAEH. They believe it can help by keeping hormone levels balanced in the body.
The main purpose of this study is to learn how well Mirena works compared to oral in NAEH in women who have started their periods.
For this, the researchers will compare the number of participants with benign endometrium after 6 months of treatment with Mirena or oral progestins.
The study participants will be randomly divided equally into one of two treatment groups. Based on their group, participants will receive Mirena, which is inserted into the uterus at the start of the study, or they will take progestins once daily by mouth for 6 months.
Each participant will be in the study for around 10 months with up to 5 visits to the study clinic/site.
Participants will visit the study clinic:
* once before the treatment starts
* 3 times with a gap of 3 months between the visits during the treatment
* then 1 more time after the treatment ends
During the study, the doctors and their study team will:
* check participant's health by performing tests such as blood and urine tests
* perform vaginal ultrasound and hysteroscopy. Hysteroscopy is a minor surgical procedure where a thin camera will be inserted into the womb to check for any abnormality. Sampling of the endometrial lining (cells in the womb) will be done with a thin tube at the same time.
* take samples of womb (endometrial) lining
* ask the participants questions about how they are feeling and what adverse events they are having
An adverse event is any medical problem that a participant has during a study. Doctors keep track of all adverse events, irrespective if they think it is related or not to the study treatment.

Trophic Feeding for Sepsis Prevention
Birmingham, AlabamaStudy Hypothesis/Question In infants born very preterm, advancing enteral feeds after 24 hours from birth (limited trophic feeds) versus after 72 hours (extended trophic feeds) reduces the risk of all-cause late onset sepsis (LOS) without increasing the risk of other adverse outcomes.
Study Design Type This is a multi-center, open-label, parallel-group, individual randomized controlled trial comparing two different trophic feeding regimens in preterm infants born between 25w0d and 31w6d. These infants will be randomly assigned to either the intervention group, receiving limited trophic feeding (20 to 25 mL/kg/day for one day) or the control group, receiving extended trophic feeding (20 to 25 mL/kg/day for three days) prior to advancing enteral feeds until full feeding volume (140 mL/kg/day) is achieved.
Eligibility Criteria Preterm infants with gestational ages between 25 0/7 and 31 6/7 weeks and a birthweight of \<1500 grams who are admitted to six participating neonatal units will be eligible for inclusion. Infants with \<5th percentile for weight at birth, vasopressor use within first 24 hours of life major congenital/genetic anomalies affecting enteral feeding, growth, or mortality, and those with a terminal illness in which decisions to withhold or limit support have been made will be excluded. Infants of parents or legal guardians who are unable to provide consent within 36 hours of birth will also be excluded.
Study Intervention/Methods Written parental informed consent will be obtained prenatally or within the first 36 hours of birth. Infants will be randomized to receive limited trophic feeds of 24 to 36 hours or extended trophic feeds for 72 hours prior to the advancement of enteral feeds. Infants will be fed parent's own milk (POM) with donor human milk as the alternative if POM is unavailable.
Primary Outcome Late-onset sepsis, defined as positive blood, urine, and/or cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) cultures in the presence of compatible clinical signs of sepsis, occurring after postnatal day 3 and before hospital discharge, and treated with antibiotics for 5 days or more.
Secondary Outcome(s) The trial will assess various secondary outcomes including length of hospital stay, all-cause in-hospital mortality, duration of IV fluids and central line utilization, necrotizing enterocolitis (Bell's stage IIa or higher), severe intraventricular hemorrhage (grade III or IV either unilaterally or bilaterally), bronchopulmonary dysplasia (oxygen requirement or positive pressure ventilation at 36 weeks corrected gestational age), or retinopathy of prematurity requiring intervention. Additionally, growth metrics throughout hospitalization will be evaluated using change in weight, length, and head circumference z-scores from birth to 36 weeks' corrected gestational age between infants in the limited and extended trophic feeding groups.

Health Coaching + Incentives for Knee Osteoarthritis
Birmingham, AlabamaThe aims are to determine whether 1) an incentive based on behaviorally-enhanced gamification and social incentives and 2) health coaching can promote adherence to exercise and physical activity after physical therapy for osteoarthritis of the knee (KOA). The research design is a randomized clinical trial with factorial design
This randomized clinical trial of 254 patients using a factorial design will leverage a clinical trial platform developed through the University of Pennsylvania that allows for the remotely capture important patient-reported outcomes and other interaction through a participant's smart phone. The investigators will randomize participants to receive social incentives with gamification to promote adherence to prescribed exercises as well as maintenance of greater levels of physical activity and compare to controls that receive a Fitbit but no additional incentive. Participants may also be randomized to receive a health coach. The investigators will utilize mobile applications for smart phones and wearable activity trackers through the Way-to-Health platform and assess, in real time, the impact of the interventions on patient-reported function and pain (as measured by the Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome Score) as well as physical activity. Participants will be followed for 2 years, with a total of 5 in-person visits.
Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is one of the most prevalent and disabling conditions among Veterans and accounts for high morbidity and high costs for the VA. Importantly, while physical therapy is valuable for patients with KOA, lack of adherence to home exercises and low overall physical activity limit the durability of response. The current proposal aims to address two important knowledge gaps in the management of KOA in order to improve pain and function.

Triptorelin for Cancer
Birmingham, AlabamaThis phase III trial compares the effect of giving triptorelin vs no triptorelin in preventing ovarian damage in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer receiving chemotherapy with an alkylating agents. Alkylating agents are part of standard chemotherapy, but may cause damage to the ovaries. If the ovaries are not working well or completely shut down, then it will be difficult or impossible to get pregnant in the future. Triptorelin works by blocking certain hormones and causing the ovaries to slow down or pause normal activity. The triptorelin used in this study stays active in the body for 24 weeks or about 6 months after a dose is given. After triptorelin is cleared from the body, the ovaries resume normal activities. Adding triptorelin before the start of chemotherapy treatment may reduce the chances of damage to the ovaries.

Cemiplimab + Surgery for Advanced Skin Cancer
Birmingham, AlabamaThis phase III trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to standard therapy (surgery with or without radiation) versus standard therapy alone in treating patients with stage III/IV squamous cell skin cancer that is able to be removed by surgery (resectable) and that may have come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). The usual treatment for patients with resectable squamous cell skin cancer is the removal of the cancerous tissue (surgery) with or without radiation, which uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as cemiplimab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Cemiplimab has been approved for the treatment of skin cancer that has spread or that cannot be removed by surgery, but it has not been approved for the treatment of skin cancer than can be removed by surgery. Adding cemiplimab to the usual treatment of surgery with or without radiation may be more effective in treating patients with stage III/IV resectable squamous cell skin cancer than the usual treatment alone.

Treatment Timing for Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
Birmingham, AlabamaThis phase III trial compares standard therapy given after surgery (adjuvant) to standard therapy given before and after surgery (perioperative) in treating patients with stage II-IIIB non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that can be removed by surgery (resectable). The usual approach for patients with resectable NSCLC is chemotherapy and/or immunotherapy before surgery, after surgery, or both before and after surgery. This study is being done to find out which approach is better at treating patients with lung cancer. Treatment will be administered according to the current standard of care at the time of enrollment. Chemotherapy options may include cisplatin, carboplatin, pemetrexed, gemcitabine, docetaxel, and vinorelbine at standard doses according to the treating physician. Cisplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known as platinum-containing compounds. It works in a way similar to the anticancer drug cisplatin, but may be better tolerated than cisplatin. Carboplatin works by killing, stopping or slowing the growth of tumor cells. Pemetrexed is in a class of medications called antifolate antineoplastic agents. It works by stopping cells from using folic acid to make deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and may kill tumor cells. Gemcitabine is a chemotherapy drug that blocks the cells from making DNA and may kill tumor cells. Docetaxel is in a class of medications called taxanes. It stops tumor cells from growing and dividing and may kill them. Other chemotherapy drugs, such as vinorelbine, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading . Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, pembrolizumab, and atezolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Starting treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy prior to surgery and continuing treatment after surgery may be a more effective treatment option than adjuvant therapy alone in patients with stage II-IIIB resectable NSCLC.

How much do clinical trials in Birmingham, AL 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 Birmingham, AL 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 Birmingham, AL 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 Birmingham, AL 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 Birmingham, AL 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 Birmingham, AL ?
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.
