Norovirus-Research.jpg

August 15, 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.

    Cardiovascular Disease Risk Research

    Is your LDL cholesterol between 70 and 190? If so, you may be at risk for major cardiovascular events even if you are not experiencing heart symptoms. Preventing a heart attack and stroke is the best line of defense. Cardiovascular disease can cause major cardiovascular events including heart attack, stroke, and cardiovascular death. Research on new medications is needed to help prevent major cardiovascular events.

    We are conducting a research study for volunteers that will evaluate an investigational preventative medication for patients with an increased risk of Cardiovascular Disease.

    You may be eligible if you:

    • Are 40-79 years old
    • Have LDL cholesterol levels between 70 and 190 mg/dL
    • Have NOT had a major cardiovascular event such as heart attack or stroke
    • Are at an increased risk of a first major cardiovascular event, defined by one or more of the following:
      • Coronary artery disease (CAD)
      • High coronary artery calcium (CAC) score
      • Elevated Lipoprotein (a) or hsCRP
      • South Asian Ancestry
      • A family member with cardiovascular disease
      • Pregnancy complications (preeclampsia, gestational hypertension, or gestational diabetes)
      • Metabolic syndrome
      • Chronic Inflammatory disorders including rheumatoid arthritis, lupus (SLE), psoriasis (>10% of the body), Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, or HIV/AIDS

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