Melatonin for Delirium
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
Toronto, Ontario
This trial is testing whether melatonin can prevent delirium in critically ill adults in the ICU. Melatonin is a natural hormone that helps regulate sleep. By giving it regularly, researchers hope to maintain normal sleep patterns and reduce confusion. The study will also determine the best dose and check for any side effects. Another substance similar to melatonin is being tested for its potential to prevent delirium and shorten ICU stays.

Melatonin for Sleep Disorders
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 2 & 3
Chattanooga, Tennessee
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of melatonin supplementation in CKD and ESRD patients with sleep disorders to reduce sleep latency times, the number of apnea/hypopneic episodes, and prolong duration in rapid eye movement (REM) sleep in CKD and ESRD patients with sleep disordered breathing.

Boulder, Colorado
Jet lag and some sleep disorders are caused by a disruption in an individual's "internal clock." Understanding the most effective way to quickly re-adjust the body's internal clock will be beneficial for treating individuals with these conditions. This study will evaluate the combined effectiveness of light and non-light therapies at regulating sleep cycles and improving sleep quality.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
