Recently added/updated trials
Effect of CYP2B6 genotype and efavirenz on the disposition and pharmacodynamic of methadone and tizanidine in healthy volunteers
Z
Zeruesenay Desta
What is this study about?The purpose of this study is to see how efavirenz, a widely used medication to treat HIV infection, interacts with methadone (a medication used to treat addiction problems and pain) and tizanidine (a medication used to relax muscle) when taken at the same time. The information learned in this study will help to inform doctors as to how to appropriately adjust doses of efavirenz, methadone and tizanidine to improve health outcomes and long-term treatment success for HIV patients. Who can participate?Healthy adults who are able to refrain from taking certain medications during the study period.
Liver Stiffness in Patients with Underlying Polycystic Kidney Disorders.
J
Jean Molleston, MD
Use Fibroscan to determine thevalence of CHF in an ADPKD population and the incidence over a four-yeard in these patients.
Use Fibroscan to determine thevalence of congenital hepatic fibrosis in an ARPKD population
Use fibroscan to determine thevalence of fibrotic liver disease in patients with other cystic kidneydiseases such as nephronophthisis and other genetic syndromes that includeboth liver and kidney pathology
Correlate the degree ofgenital hepatic fibrosis, as measured by FibroScan, with laboratorygression to clinical signs of portalhypertension.
Biorepository for Adverse Drug Reaction (RADR)
E
Emma Tillman
The primary objective of the Biorepository for Adverse Drug Reaction (RADR) will be to provide researchers with a bank of biological samples and clinical data related to investigate biomarkers of unexpected response following medicines and vaccines.
Telemedicine for Pediatric Sickle Cell Patients in Medically Underserved Areas
S
Seethal Jacob, MD
The purpose of this study is to learn more about how the use of two different types of telemedicine (distance medical care) can address barriers to receiving comprehensive sickle cell care, and whether care can be improved.
The Laparoscopy in Biliary Exploration Research and Training Initiative (LIBERTI) Study
E
Eugene Ceppa, MD
This study is designed to be a prospective, multi-center educational intervention study to evaluate the impact of a simulator-based educational curriculum on the institutional utilization of laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) for the management of patients with choledocholithiasis.
Stronger Hearts, Healthier Lives: Join Our Study

Navin Kaushal
Why is this study being done?Cardiokidney Metabolic Syndrome or CKM is a new syndrome recognized by the American Heart Association and occurs when an individual has a combination of conditions which includes being overweight, in addition to having metabolic risk factors (hypertriglyceridemia [≥135 mg/dL], hypertension, metabolic syndrome, diabetes), or chronic kidney disease. Researchers at Indiana University are conducting a study to learn more about how to promote exercise among individuals with CKM. CKM may have the potential to be reversed by participating in regular exercise. Findings from this study will help us understand physical activity levels among individuals with CKM, with the goal of designing an effective exercise program for those individuals. Who can take part?Adults (ages 18 and older) who are at risk of developing Cardiokidney Metabolic Syndrome (CKM).
GLP-1 Medications and Food Experiences Study
R
Richard Mattes
Have you recently started a GLP-1? You may qualify for a paid research study to help us learn how weight loss medications affect taste, appetite, and food choices.Our study is exploring how certain weight-loss medications may affect how adults with obesity experience food. These medications, known as GLP-1 receptor agonists, are often used to support weight loss.Study participation includes two in-person visits at Purdue University (West Lafayette, IN) and several short online activities over about two weeks.
