Human Physiology clinical trials

Phase 1: Researchers test a new drug or treatment in a small group of people for the first time to evaluate its safety, determine a safe dosage range, and identify side effects.
Phase 2: The drug or treatment is given to a larger group of people to see if it is effective and to further evaluate its safety.
Phase 3: The drug or treatment is given to large groups of people to confirm its effectiveness, monitor side effects, compare it to commonly used treatments, and collect information that will allow the drug or treatment to be used safely.
Phase 4: Studies are done after the drug or treatment has been marketed to gather information on the drug's effect in various populations and any side effects associated with long-term use.

NCT ID: NCT03937817 Recruiting - Malaria Clinical Trials

Collection of Human Biospecimens for Basic and Clinical Research Into Globin Variants

Start date: September 25, 2019
Phase:
Study type: Observational

Background: Blood disorders like sickle cell disease and malaria affect many people around the world. Researchers want to learn more about blood disorders. To do this, they need to collect biological samples from people with blood disorders. They also need to collect samples from healthy people. Objective: To collect samples to use for research on blood disorders. Eligibility: People ages 18-70 who have blood disorders. Healthy volunteers without blood disorders are also needed. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical history, physical exam, and blood and urine tests. Participants will give one or more samples. They will give them over 5 years. They can choose not to give any of the samples: Saliva: Participants will spit into a tube. They may also have the inside of their mouth swabbed. Urine: Participants will urinate into a cup. Blood: Blood will be taken through a needle in the participant s arm. Fat samples: An area on the participant s belly or buttock will be numbed. A small cut will be made into the skin and a small piece of fat removed. Mucus and cells from the lungs: The participant will be sedated. A flexible tube will be inserted through the nose or mouth into the lung airways. These participants will also have a physical exam, chest x-ray, and heart tests after the procedure. ...
