Sports 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: NCT06094075 Active, not recruiting - Strength Training Clinical Trials

Dynamic Strength Index-based Intervention in Basketball.

Start date: May 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this randomized controlled trial will be to determine the effectiveness of the dynamic strength index (DSI) in optimizing training programs to improve physical performance proxies (sprinting, jumping, and CoD) in basketball players. Subjects will be randomly allocated to one of two groups: the intervention group and the control group. Measurement and intervention will occur during a 7-week in-season period, right before the play off starts. Throughout this period, all participants will engage in an average of 10 hours of basketball training per week, which will comprise 5 basketball sessions and 2 strength training sessions. In addition, they are anticipated to play 2 games weekly. A pre-test will be performed one week before the first training session, and post-tests will be performed in the week after the training sessions have finished. Athletes will perform both testing sessions at the same time of the day (± 2 hours). Each athlete will perform a 20-m sprint test, with timing gates positioned at every 5 m distance, a 505 CoD test, countermovement jump (CMJ), and isometric mid-thigh pull (IMTP). Based on CMJ peak force and IMTP peak force data, we will calculate DSI. Based on the average DSI value, the participants in the intervention group will be divided into two groups - strength group and ballistic group.
