Healthy Volunteers

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – LaVilla (ECIR Site), Rovia Jacksonville – University (ECIR Site)

“Toku” Toku Inc / “CLAiR Pivotal Study”

This research is being done to investigate artificial intelligence (AI) software called CLAiR, which is used to analyze a type of eye photograph called a retina image. Retinal images are photos that are taken of your retinas. Your retina is the light-sensitive part of the back of your eye that is responsible for vision. In this study, CLAiR will be used to look at retinal images from each of your eyes and help to determine if a person is at higher risk for developing ASCVD.

Eligibility:
• Ages 40-75
• Not currently using a cholesterol-lowering medication, such as a statin

Type 2 Diabetes

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – Southside (ECIR Site)

Prolongation of GLP-1 Adherence when using Continuous Glucose Monitoring

The primary purpose of this study is to utilize the FSL3 to help prolong the length of time people with diabetes maintain adherence to GLP-1 and GIP/GLP-1 antagonists. Subjects with type 2 diabetes who are newly beginning glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and dual gastric inhibitory polypeptide/glucagon-like peptide 1 (GIP/GLP-1) agonist therapy will be assigned to use either the FSL3 or their existing Standard of Care (SOC) device to manage their type 2 diabetes. Effectiveness will be characterized by assessing the length of time subjects in each group remain on a GLP-1 or GLP-1/GIP combination drug.

A-Fib (Cardiovascular)

Location(s): Rovia St. Augustine (ECIR Site)

A Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group study to evaLuate the effIcacy and safety of abeLacimab in high-risk patients with Atrial fibrillation who have been deemed unsuitable for oral antiCoagulation (LILAC)

The purpose of this study is to find out about the safety and effectiveness of monthly study treatment with abelacimab (hereafter referred to as the study drug) in subjects with atrial fibrillation/flutter (AF) who are not treated with oral anticoagulants because they have been deemed by their responsible physicians or by their own decision to be unsuitable for currently available oral blood thinners.

Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes

Location(s): Rovia Canton (ECIR Site), Rovia Jacksonville – Southside (ECIR Site)

A Phase II Randomised, Doubleblind, Placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of AZD6234 in participants living with overweight or obesity with Type 2 Diabetes who are on a stable dose of GLP-1 Receptor Agonist

We are doing this study to learn more about how safe the study drug AZD6234 is and how it affects your medical condition of overweight or obesity with type 2 diabetes when you are given the study drug AZD6234 along with a specific therapy called glucagon like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA). Additional aims of the study are to better understand overweight or obesity with type 2 diabetes.

Amylin is a hormone that plays an important role in body weight management. The study drug AZD6234 can mimic amylin’s effects in the body and may aid in weight management, potentially helping with weight management and type 2 diabetes.

Heart Failure, Kidney Disease

Location(s): Rovia St. Augustine (ECIR Site)

Effect of Balcinrenone/Dapagliflozin, Compared with Dapagliflozin, on the Risk of Heart Failure Events and Cardiovascular Death in Patients with Heart Failure and Impaired Kidney Function

We are doing this study to learn more about how effective, safe and tolerable an experimental drug called balcinrenone is when used in combination with dapagliflozin for treating patients with heart failure and impaired kidney function and also to better understand the studied disease and associated health problems. Combining balcinrenone with Dapagliflozin is experimental, which means it is not approved by any health authority such as the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Dapagliflozin is an approved drug to treat patients with heart failure, chronic kidney disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

COPD

Location(s): Rovia Lake City (ECIR Site)

A Randomized, Double-blind, Parallel Group, Multicenter, Phase III Study to Assess the Efficacy of Budesonide, Glycopyrronium, and Formoterol Fumarate Metered Dose Inhaler Relative to Glycopyrronium and Formoterol Fumarate MDI on Cardiopulmonary Outcomes in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (THARROS)

This study is comparing how well BGF (brand name BREZTRI) or GFF (brand name BEVESPI) may help prevent COPD flare-ups and serious heart events in people with COPD. People with COPD have a higher risk of heart problems and serious heart events than people without COPD.

Inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) are known to help prevent COPD flare-ups. It is thought that combination treatments with inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) may help reduce serious heart events. For this reason, we will compare a treatment with an ICS (BGF) against one without an ICS (GFF).

Type 2 Diabetes

Location(s): Rovia Lake City (ECIR Site)

Continuous glucosemonitoring (CGM) in people with type 2 diabetes not on insulin: The CONNECT Study

The purpose of this research is to find out how well using Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM) works to improve glucose control compared to routine care (RC) in people with type 2 diabetes not taking insulin. Routine care for a person with type 2 diabetes is typically to check blood glucose by fingerstick at certain times rather than using a CGM. Comparing CGM and routine care is experimental.

Heart Failure

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – University (ECIR Site), Rovia Jefferson City (ECIR Site), Rovia St. Augustine (ECIR Site)

A Phase III double-blind, randomized, parallel-group superiority trial to evaluate efficacy and safety of the combined use oforal BI 690517 and empagliflozin compared with placebo andempagliflozin in participants with symptomatic heart failure (HF: NYHAII-IV) and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥40%.

The purpose of this clinical research trial is to look at the effectiveness, safety, and tolerance of combining the investigational trial drug called BI 690517 with empagliflozin (empa) in participants diagnosed with heart failure (HF). Empagliflozin is approved by the FDA for the treatment of heart failure.

In this trial, the investigational new treatment option BI 690517 is compared with a treatment with empa and placebo. You have a 50% chance (much like flipping a coin) of getting BI 690517 with empa, or empa and placebo. Please be aware that you may receive placebo that looks like the trial drug (BI 690517) but does not contain any medicine.

Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS)/Cardiovascular

Location(s): Rovia St. Augustine (ECIR Site)

A phase III, double-blind, randomized placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effects of dalcetrapib on cardiovascular(CV) risk in a genetically defined population with a recent Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS): The DAL-302 (dal-GenE-2) trial.

The recently completed dal-GenE study, a clinical trial of over 6,000 patients, evaluated the effects of dalcetrapib in patients with recent ACS and the AA genetic variant. The results of this large study demonstrated that treatment with dalcetrapib did not change the risk of having another cardiovascular event in the majority of patients with recent ACS. However, an analysis was performed which indicated that the COVID-19 pandemic may have impacted the accuracy of this data. When the results collected before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic were evaluated, certain analyses showed that taking dalcetrapib corresponded to a reduction in chance of experiencing a myocardial infarction (heart attack) when compared to those taking placebo (dummy drug). The goal of the present study is to evaluate the effect of dalcetrapib only in patients with the AA genetic variant to confirm these findings of cardiovascular benefit.

Hypothyroidism

Location(s): Rovia Canton (ECIR Site), Rovia Jacksonville – LaVilla (ECIR Site), Rovia Jacksonville – Southside (ECIR Site), Rovia Macon (ECIR Site)

A Phase 2/3 multicenter, double blinded, randomized, dose-conversion, active control study examining the efficacy and safety of Armour Thyroid compared to synthetic T4 for the treatment of adults with primary hypothyroidism

The purpose of this study is to evaluate if Armour Thyroid is safe and effective in the treatment of hypothyroidism. This study will compare the effect of Armour Thyroid on hypothyroidism and its safety with synthetic drug T4 (Levothyroxine).

The number of FDA-approved and commercially available options for the treatment of hypothyroidism are limited. Currently, synthetic T4 is the common thyroid replacement therapy. Prior to the mid-1970s, desiccated thyroid, such as Armour Thyroid, was the most commonly prescribed form of thyroid hormone replacement. Some of the patients treated with synthetic T4 continue to have persistent symptoms of hypothyroidism or inadequate improvement of their hypothyroid symptoms. The use of desiccated thyroid (Armour Thyroid) may be beneficial to patients with hypothyroidism.

ASCVD Cardiovascular, Kidney Disease

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – University (ECIR Site), Rovia Macon (ECIR Site)

A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled, Event-Driven Study to Investigate the Effect of Retatrutide on the Incidence of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events and the Decline in Kidney Function in Participants with Body Mass Index (BMI) ≥27 kg/m2 and Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease and/or Chronic Kidney Disease (TRIUMPH OUTCOMES)

This study is being done to see how safe an investigational drug is and how well it will work to help people with Body Mass Index (BMI) of greater than or equal to 27 kg/m2 and heart related and/or kidney related disease. “Investigational” means that the drug being tested has not been approved for routine clinical use or for the use described in this study by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA is allowing the use of this study drug for research.

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about retatrutide (LY3437943), which is an investigational treatment for participants with Body Mass Index (BMI) of greater than or equal to 27 kg/m2 (kilogram per square meter) and heart related and/or kidney related disease.

Type 1 Diabetes

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – Southside (ECIR Site), Rovia Macon (ECIR Site)

A Phase 2a, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple-dose, Crossover Study of the Effect of ZT-01 on Frequency of Nocturnal Hypoglycemia in Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

The study drug ZT-01 is designed to inhibit somatostatin, a hormone that inhibits the glucagon response to hypoglycemia. Thus, ZT-01 may be able to restore glucagon production to prevent hypoglycemia, which could improve both health and quality of life in people with T1DM.

The purpose of this study is:

To assess the effect of ZT-01 days on incidence of night time (nocturnal) hypoglycemia in participants with T1DM;
To assess the safety and tolerability of study drug ZT-01;
To look for study drug’s safety indicators (called safety biomarkers);
To understand how the study drug is changed by and removed from the body (called pharmacokinetic or PK testing);
To understand how the study drug is affecting the body (called PD testing).

Hyperlipidemia

Location(s): Rovia Jacksonville – University (ECIR Site), Rovia Lake City (ECIR Site), Rovia Macon (ECIR Site)

A Phase 3 Randomized, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of MK-0616 in Reducing Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Participants at High Cardiovascular Risk

This trial is testing an experimental drug called MK-0616 in people with high cardiovascular risk.

The purpose of this trial is to:

Test the safety of MK-0616, compared to placebo
See how well MK-0616 works to reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events, compared to placebo
See how MK-0616 affects cholesterol and other blood tests related to cardiovascular health, compared to placebo

A placebo looks like the trial drug, but it has no active ingredients.

Cardiovascular

Location(s): Rovia Canton (ECIR Site), Rovia Macon (ECIR Site)

Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study to Investigate the Effect of Lepodisiran on the Reduction of Major Adverse Cardiovascular Events in Adults with Elevated Lipoprotein(a) who have Established Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease or Are at Risk for a First Cardiovascular Event – ACCLAIM-Lp(a).

The main purpose of this study is to learn more about lepodisiran which is an experimental treatment for elevated lipoprotein (a) (Lp[a]); which is an increase in a type of fat in your blood that is not good for your health.

The study aims to learn:

Whether lepodisiran can reduce problems like heart attack or stroke in adults with elevated lipoprotein (a).
Whether it works better than a placebo (a placebo is an inactive or “pretend” drug that looks like the study drug).
What are the possible side effects
