        Struggling with Leg Pain When Walking? You’re Not Alone. 

        If you experience leg pain, cramping, or fatigue when walking, it could be a sign of peripheral artery disease (PAD)—and a new research study may be able to help. 

        St. Johns Center for Clinical research  is currently enrolling participants for a PAD research study evaluating an investigational treatment designed to improve walking ability and reduce discomfort. 

        About the Study 

        This study is focused on adults diagnosed with peripheral artery disease (PAD), a condition that can reduce blood flow to the legs and make everyday activities like walking difficult. 

        Researchers are studying a new treatment approach to better understand how to: 

        • Improve walking distance  
        • Reduce leg pain and cramping  
        • Enhance overall quality of life  
        •  

        Participants will receive expert medical care and regular health monitoring throughout the study. 
         
         Do You Experience These Symptoms? 

        You may relate to this study if you: 

        • Feel leg pain or cramping when walking
        • Have to stop walking due to discomfort
        • Notice your walking distance getting shorter
        • Experience leg fatigue that limits daily activities

         
         Who May Qualify? 

        You may be eligible if you: 

        • ✅ Are 18 years of age or older
        • ✅ Have been diagnosed with peripheral artery disease (PAD)
        • ✅ Experience leg pain, cramping, or fatigue when walking

          • Jacksonville: Westside – Osteoarthritis Knee Pain and Weight Research Study
          Jacksonville: Westside – Osteoarthritis Knee Pain and Weight Research Study

          Are you living with knee pain from osteoarthritis and struggling to manage your weight?  

          Westside Center for Clinical Research is testing an investigational treatment designed to help adults with knee arthritis who are overweight or obese. 

          Osteoarthritis is a common condition that can cause: 

          • Aching or stiff knees, especially in the morning 
          • Pain with movement, walking, or climbing stairs 
          • Swelling or grinding/clicking sensations 
          • Limited knee mobility 

          Excess weight can make knee pain worse and make it harder to stay active or lose weight. This study offers expert care, monitoring, and nutrition support to participants while testing a new treatment. 

          Who Can Participate 

          You may be eligible if you: 

          • Are 18 years or older 
          • Have a BMI of 27 or higher (overweight or obese) 
          • Have chronic knee pain from osteoarthritis lasting 3 months or more 
          • Experience knee pain on most days (at least 15 days per month) 
          • Have moderate knee pain  
          • Have tried diet-based weight loss without long-term success 

          Note: Participants cannot have diabetes and must maintain a stable body weight.

          Norovirus-Research.jpg

          December 11, 2024


          Norovirus is a highly contagious virus that is the leading cause of acute gastroenteritis (stomach bug) and foodborne illness in the U.S., striking people of all ages with sudden bouts of severe nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, and diarrhea.

          Norovirus remains a formidable public health challenge, causing millions of cases of acute gastroenteritis annually. Despite its widespread impact, there is currently no approved vaccine to prevent acute gastroenteritis caused by the norovirus. To combat this persistent virus clinical trials are imperative to develop an effective norovirus prevention vaccine.

          ENCORE Research Group is conducting a Phase 3 clinical research study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of an investigational vaccine to prevent norovirus acute gastroenteritis.

          You may be eligible to participate if you:

          • Are 18 or older
          • Do NOT have a diagnosis of chronic symptomatic gastrointestinal disease, including IBS, colitis, esophageal reflux, or any other medical condition that is associated with symptoms of regular vomiting or diarrhea
          • Are NOT currently pregnant or breastfeeding

          There are additional criteria to meet to qualify for this study. Volunteers who qualify for our study will receive study-related investigational vaccines, medical exams at no cost, and a stipend for time and travel. No health insurance is required to participate.

          Fleming Island – Chronic Cough Research Study

          Do you have a cough that just won’t go away? 

          Fleming Island Center for Clinical Research is conducting a new observational research study to better understand chronic cough and how it affects daily life. Researchers are studying how often people cough and how chronic cough impacts sleep, work, and overall well-being. 

          Participants will wear a small cough monitoring device for about 4 weeks to help measure cough frequency and patterns. 

          Your participation could help researchers learn more about chronic cough and support the development of better treatments in the future. 

          No study medication is involved. 

          About This Study 

          A cough that lasts more than 8 weeks is considered chronic. For some people, the cause of the cough may remain unclear or continue even after trying multiple treatments. 

          This study focuses on people who may have: 

          • Refractory Chronic Cough (RCC) – a cough that continues despite treatment 
          • Unexplained Chronic Cough (UCC) – a cough where the cause cannot be identified 

          Researchers will collect information about cough frequency and its impact on quality of life. 

          Who May Qualify 

          You may be able to participate if you: 

          • Are 21 years of age or older 
          • Have had a persistent cough lasting longer than 8 weeks 
          • Have already seen healthcare providers about your cough 
          • Have tried treatments or tests to determine the cause of your cough 
          • Are willing to wear a cough monitoring device for 4 weeks 
          • Are able to use a smartphone with the monitoring device 

          Participants are typically individuals who have been evaluated by specialists such as: 

          • Pulmonologists (lung specialists) 
          • ENT (ear, nose, and throat specialists) 
          • Allergy or immunology specialists

          Fleming Island – COPD

          Living with COPD? You May Qualify for a Research Study 

          Fleming Island Center for Clinical Research is currently enrolling volunteers for a new clinical research study for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD). 

          Compensation up to $950 may be available for study-related time and travel. 
          No insurance is required to participate. 
          All study-related care is provided at no cost. 

          What is COPD? 

          Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a progressive lung condition that makes it difficult to breathe. It is commonly caused by long-term exposure to lung irritants, especially cigarette smoke. 

          Common symptoms of COPD include: 

          • Shortness of breath 
          • Chronic cough 
          • Wheezing 
          • Frequent respiratory infections 
          • Increased mucus production 

          COPD can affect daily activities and overall quality of life. Research studies like this one help scientists develop better ways to manage and treat COPD. 

          Who May Qualify 

          You may be eligible to participate if you: 

          • Are 40 to 80 years old 
          • Have been diagnosed with COPD or are experiencing COPD symptoms 
          • Are a current or former cigarette smoker 
          • Have a history of smoking for 10 or more years

          Fleming Island – Study (Obstructive Sleep Apnea)

          Obstructive Sleep Apnea 

          Obstructive sleep apnea is very common and often occurs in combination with obesity and type 2 diabetes.  It is a condition where the throat is blocked periodically during sleep. This restricts airflow to the lungs and can lead to dangerous complications like cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. 

          Fleming Island Center for Clinical Research is conducting a research study that will evaluate an investigational medication for people with obstructive sleep apnea, excess weight and type 2 diabetes. 

          You may be eligible to participate if you: 

          • Are at least 18 years old 
          • Have a BMI > 27 
          • Have obstructive sleep apnea 
          • Have type 2 diabetes with an A1c between 6.5 and 10.5 

           

          There are additional criteria to meet to qualify for this study. Volunteers who qualify for our study may be compensated for time and travel. No health insurance is required to participate.

          Jacksonville: University Blvd – Study (Acne Vaccine)

          Acne vulgaris is one of the few diseases that is visible on our skin. A rogue strain of C. acnes bacteria can cause fluid to build-up in the skin, causing inflammation. Despite treatments dating back to ancient Egypt, most adolescents and nearly half of adults in the U.S. experience acne. Current treatments fail to provide a cure and effective prevention for acne, largely due to a decades-long stagnation of new medical treatments.  

          To address this lack of progress, Jacksonville Center for Clinical Research is conducting a clinical research study. We are evaluating an investigational vaccine targeting the acne-causing strain of C. acnes bacteria for its ability to treat moderate to severe acne. 

           You may be eligible to participate if you: 

          • Are 18-45 years old 
          • Have a diagnosis of moderate to severe acne vulgaris 

          There are additional criteria to meet to qualify for this study. Volunteers who qualify for our study will receive study-related vaccine (or placebo) & medical exams at no cost, and a stipend for time and travel. No health insurance is required to participate.

          Jacksonville: University Blvd – Study (EXHALE-3)

          Eosinophilic asthma is a type of asthma that is characterized by high levels of eosinophils in the airways. Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell that are involved in the body’s immune response to allergens and other triggers. When eosinophils are activated, they release inflammatory chemicals that can cause damage to the airways, leading to asthma symptoms.

          Symptoms of eosinophilic asthma include wheezing, coughing, shortness of breath, and chest tightness. These symptoms may be more severe than those of other types of asthma and may not respond as well to traditional asthma treatments like inhaled corticosteroids.

           You may be eligible to participate if you: 

          • Be 12 years and up
          • Diagnosed with eosinophilic asthma
          • Must be taking at least one medium to high dose maintenance inhaler daily, with another asthma medication

          Axial-Spondyloarthritis-Spine.jpg

          July 21, 2021

          Axial Spondyloarthritis

          Axial spondyloarthritis (Axial SpA) is a type of inflammatory arthritis that primarily affects the spine and sacroiliac joints (the joints that connect the base of the spine to the pelvis). It is a chronic condition that can cause pain, stiffness, and limited mobility in the spine and other joints.

          Axial SpA is part of a larger group of related conditions called spondyloarthritis (SpA), which also includes peripheral SpA that affects joints outside the spine. Axial SpA is further divided into two subtypes: radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (r-axSpA), which is characterized by changes visible on X-ray or MRI, and non-radiographic axial spondyloarthritis (nr-axSpA), which does not show any such changes on imaging but has similar symptoms and disease activity.

          The exact cause of Axial SpA is not fully understood, but it is thought to be related to genetic and environmental factors. There is no cure for Axial SpA, but various treatments can help manage symptoms, slow disease progression, and improve quality of life.

          C.-diff-Upset-Stomach.jpg

          January 30, 2020

          C.-diff Upset Stomach

          Clostridium difficile is a potentially deadly, spore-forming bacterium emerging as the leading cause of life-threatening, healthcare-associated infections worldwide. C. diff. toxins cause gastrointestinal disease that can lead to death. Symptoms range from mild diarrhea to life-threatening colitis and often include dehydration, abdominal pain and spasms.


          • More Information about C. Diff
          More Information about C. Diff

          Ask anyone who has had a Clostridium difficile (C. difficile, or C. diff) infection and they will probably tell you that it was one of the worst experiences of their life. Imagine the worst flu you’ve ever had but on steroids! C. diff is affectionately referred to as “deadly diarrhea” and with symptoms such as watery diarrhea 10 to 15 times a day that’s no joke! It can also come with a multitude of other symptoms such as: severe abdominal pain/cramping, rapid heart rate, fever, blood or pus in the stool, nausea, dehydration, and kidney failure.

          What is C. Diff?

          C. diff is one of the many different types of bacteria that lives in our intestines. It may sound gross but bacteria in your intestines are completely normal and you need a good balance of them to remain healthy. When something such as antibiotic use throws off the balance in your intestines C. diff may start to grow out of control and begin release toxins that attack the lining of the intestines which leads to that deadly diarrhea.

          Is C. Diff contagious?

          C. diff is contagious, so even if you were not recently on antibiotics, you can still catch C. diff by contact with a contaminated surface. Spores from C. diff bacteria come from human feces, soil, water and animal feces. These spores can also live for weeks or months outside the body.

          Who is at risk?

          C. diff is most often associated with doctor or healthcare facility visits or recent antibiotic use. There is a higher risk for adults ages 50 and over, especially those that have frequent doctor visits or have had any type of recent surgery or a hospitalization.

          What can you do to lower your risk?

          Good handwashing practices, especially after doctor or healthcare facility visits are a great start to lowering your risk of getting a C. diff infection. Another way is to take probiotics daily anytime you take an antibiotic. The reason for this is because when you take an antibiotic it not only kills off the bad bacteria, but it also kills off the good bacteria, giving C. diff a chance to thrive. Taking a probiotic, even if it’s just store bought yogurt, helps feed and rebalance your good gut bacteria. These are not foolproof, but they may help.

          A Vaccine to prevent C. Diff?

          While Handwashing and probiotics are certainly a must, researchers agree they are still not enough when it comes to preventing this life-threatening infection. Which is why we are involved in a cutting-edge research for C. Diff.

            What is an abdominal aortic aneurysm?

            An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a bulge in the aorta (the main artery leaving the heart) caused by a weakening in the artery wall. If left untreated, this bulge may continue to grow and possibly rupture (break open), causing serious internal bleeding.

            If you or someone you know has AAA, you may qualify for our research study.

            New Cardiovascular Research Study Now Enrolling 

            Fleming Island Center for Clinical Research is are currently seeking volunteers for a new clinical research study focused on Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD). This study is designed for adults who have experienced a recent cardiovascular event and are currently taking a statin medication. 

            About This Study 

            Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of serious health complications worldwide. This research study is evaluating potential approaches that may help improve outcomes for people living with ASCVD who are already receiving statin therapy. 

            Researchers are looking to better understand how new therapies may support individuals who have experienced significant cardiovascular events. 

            Your participation could help researchers learn more about improving heart health and preventing future complications. 

            Who May Qualify 

            You may be eligible to participate if you:
