Trials With No Placebo
Corticosteroid
Budesonide + Formoterol Inhaler for Asthma
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Huntington Beach, California
This trial tests an inhaler that combines two medications to help people with poorly controlled asthma. It aims to see if this new inhaler can better manage their symptoms by reducing inflammation and keeping airways open. Combination products often have useful clinical benefits in asthma. The scientific rationale for combination therapy includes the fact that different agents have complementary modes of action.
Corticosteroid
PT010 Inhaler for Severe Asthma
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Chandler, Arizona
This trial tests an inhaler with three medications to help people with severe asthma who don't respond well to usual treatments. The inhaler reduces inflammation, relaxes muscles around the airways, and keeps them open longer. The study aims to see if this combination is more effective and safe compared to other treatments.
Corticosteroid
Budesonide +2 More for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 2
Vancouver, British Columbia
This study will evaluate the effects of budesonide (using Symbicort which is budesonide and formoterol) and fluticasone (using Advair which is fluticasone and salmeterol) on the airway microorganisms of patients with moderate-to-severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This is a randomized, parallel group, two-centered clinical trial study to evaluate the effects of a 12 week treatment with Symbicort 400 mcg BID and Advair 250 mcg BID (via Diskus) on airway microbiota in patients with moderate-to-severe COPD. The control arm of this study will be Oxeze 12 ug BID.
Corticosteroid and Long-Acting Beta Agonist Combination
Advair HFA MDI 115/21 +1 More for Asthma
Recruiting5 awardsPhase 4
El Paso, Texas
The objectives of this study are to measure Impulse Oscillometry (IOS) in patients with asthma extensively at baseline in patients with mild-to-moderate asthma, treated with as-needed short acting beta agonist only, to measure respiratory resistance and small airway dysfunction accurately and precisely at baseline, from which to measure onset of action of Advair MDI in comparison with that of Symbicort MDI. Initial screening will assess IOS resistance and small airway dysfunction and its response to short acting beta agonist (SABA). Patients will be selected from among those who manifest a 40% improvement in small airway function assessed by IOS low frequency reactance after SABA compared to baseline. After screening, patients will be randomized to receive either Advair or Symbicort; and will be assessed at randomization before and at several intervals after initial dosing, up to 4 hours. Patients will return again 4 weeks after randomization for extended IOS (and spirometry) testing as done at randomization.
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.
