Mirena for Endometrial Hyperplasia

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
Researchers 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.

This phase III trial compares the effectiveness of rituximab to mosunetuzumab in treating patients with follicular lymphoma with a low tumor burden. Rituximab is a monoclonal antibody. It binds to a protein called CD20, which is found on B cells (a type of white blood cell) and some types of cancer cells. This may help the immune system kill cancer cells. Mosunetuzumab is a monoclonal antibody that may interfere with the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. It is not yet known if giving rituximab or mosunetuzumab works better in treating patients with follicular lymphoma with a low tumor burden.

This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease at risk of progression. People with and without type 2 diabetes can take part in this study. The study is open to people who take other medicines called angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEi) or angiotensin receptor blockers (ARB). People who already take empagliflozin or any other sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2i) can also join. The study is also open to people who currently do not take any of these treatments. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 690517 helps people with chronic kidney disease when taken in combination with a study medicine called empagliflozin. Worsening of kidney function increases the risk for kidney failure, cardiovascular disease, and heart disease. This study has 2 parts. In the first part, participants get empagliflozin or placebo matching BI 690517 for at least 6 weeks. Participants continue taking ACEi or ARB throughout the study if such treatments are indicated. In the second part, participants are divided into 2 groups by chance. One group takes BI 690517 tablets and the other group takes placebo tablets. Placebo tablets look like BI 690517 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants take 1 tablet once a day in addition to empagliflozin for the duration of the study. The doctors document when participants experience worsening of their kidney disease, go to hospital due to heart failure, or die of cardiovascular problems during the study. The time to these events is compared between the 2 treatment groups to see whether the treatment works. The study continues until the required number of events have occurred which is about 3 to 4 years. During this time, participants visit the study site about 4 times within the first 6 months. Then they visit the study site every 6 months. At the visits, doctors regularly check participants' health, take blood and urine samples, measure blood pressure and weight, check kidney function, and take note of any unwanted effects.

Betamethasone vs. Tapinarof for Psoriasis

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
The purpose of this prospective study is to evaluate the degree of post-inflammatory pigmentation alteration on legs of study subjects treated with two different psoriasis treatments. Betamethasone dipropionate 0.05% cream is a high potency steroid that is commonly used to alleviate the inflammation of psoriasis. Tapinarof is another medication approved for psoriasis; tapinarof activates aryl hydrocarbon receptors to downregulate inflammatory cytokines (such as interleukin \[IL\]-17) which play a large role in psoriasis. Study subjects will be randomized to receive one of these medications and will be followed to monitor for PIPA. Photographs will be taken to help evaluate visual changes. The Taylor Hyperpigmentation scale will be used to grade the area and severity of hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation; severity of erythema, burning, peeling, and dryness will also be recorded. This will allow us to understand the effects of two standard-of-care psoriasis medications to better treat patients.

Lutikizumab for Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic and often painful inflammatory skin disease which includes the forming of lumps, abscesses and scars in areas of the skin such as under the breasts, under armpits, inner thighs, groin and buttocks. This study will compare lutikizumab versus placebo for the treatment of adult and adolescent participants with moderate to severe HS . Lutikizumab is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of HS. During Period 1 of the study, participants will placed in 1 of 2 groups called treatment arms. There is a 1 in 2 chance that participants will be assigned to placebo. Around 1280 adult and adolescent participants with moderate to severe HS will be enrolled in the study at approximately 275 sites world wide. During Period 2, participants that were part of the lutikizumab treatment arm in Period 1 will be re-randomized to 1 of 2 lutikizumab treatment arms. Participants that were part of the Placebo arm in Period 1 will start Period 2 with an initiation of lutikizumab followed by a re-randomization to 1 of 2 lutikizumab treatment arms. In Period 1, participants will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab or placebo every week for 16 weeks. In Period 2, participants that were randomized to lutikizumab in Period 1 will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab every week or every other week for 36-weeks. Participants that were randomized to the placebo arm in Period 1 will receive subcutaneous injections of lutikizumab every week for 16 weeks, then either every week or every other week for 20 weeks There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic.

Navtemadlin + Ruxolitinib for Myelofibrosis

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
This clinical trial is evaluating whether addition of navtemadlin to ruxolitinib treatment will provide more clinical benefit than ruxolitinib alone for patients with Myelofibrosis who have a suboptimal response to ruxolitinib treatment alone. Subjects will start by receiving ruxolitinib alone in the run-in period. Those who demostrate a suboptimal response from ruxolitinib alone will then be randomized 2:1 to receive navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo as add-on treatment to their ongoing ruxolitinib. Randomized means that subjects will be assigned to a group by chance, like a flip of a coin. The study is blinded, meaning the subjects, doctors, central endpoint assessors and sponsor will not know which add on treatment (navtemadlin or navtemadlin placebo) the subject is receiving.

Ubrogepant for Migraine

Winston-Salem, North Carolina
A migraine is a moderate to severe headache typically on one side of the head. A migraine attack is a headache that may be accompanied by throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light and sound, or other symptoms. Menstrual migraine (MM) is defined as migraine attacks that occur within the perimenstrual period (PMP) in at least 2 out of 3 menstrual cycles. The PMP is from 2 days before the onset of menstrual bleeding to 2 days after. This study will assess how safe and effective ubrogepant is in treating menstrual migraine. Adverse Events and change in disease activity will be assessed. Ubrogepant is an investigational drug being developed for short-term prevention of menstrual migraine. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the 2 groups to receive either ubrogepant or placebo. Around 450 adult female participants with menstrual migraine will be enrolled in approximately 85 sites in the United States and Puerto Rico. Participants will receive oral ubrogepant tablets once daily for 7 consecutive days starting 3 days prior to estimated onset of menses per cycle for 3 PMPs during double-blind period (16 weeks). Eligible participants may continue to receive oral ubrogepant tablets once daily for 7 consecutive days per cycle starting 3 days prior to estimated onset of menses during open-label extension period (52 weeks). There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will collect data daily in electronic diaries and attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic. The effect of the treatment will be checked by medical assessments, blood tests, checking for side effects and completing questionnaires.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do clinical trials in Winston-Salem, NC 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 Winston-Salem, NC 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 Winston-Salem, NC 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 Winston-Salem, NC 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 Winston-Salem, NC 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 Winston-Salem, NC ?

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 Winston-Salem, NC ?

Most recently, we added Mirena for Endometrial Hyperplasia, Reprieve System for Heart Failure and Suzetrigine for Diabetic Neuropathy to the Power online platform.
