9 The Doctors' Trial 23 doctors and administrators accused of crimes against humanity in the form of medical experiments inflicted on prisoners and civilians. Medical experiments conducted for benefit of German armed forces high altitude conditions freezing malaria poison gas saltwater consumption sterilization poisons, etc
10 The Nuremberg Code The voluntary consent of the subject is absolutely essential legal capacity to give consent free power of choice, without duress have sufficient knowledge to understand The responsibility for ascertaining the quality of the consent rests upon each individual. It is a personal duty and responsibility which may not be delegated to another with impunity The experiment should be such as to yield fruitful results for the good of society, unprocurable by other means The experiment should be so designed that the anticipated results will justify the performance of the experiment
11 Declaration of Helsinki Doctors Trial was a legal response to atrocities committed by physicians. but a response from the medical profession was also necessary A statement of ethical principles intended to guide medical research involving human subjects No legal force, but a source document for research ethics guidelines around the world Medical progress is based on research that ultimately must include studies involving human subjects
12 The experiment should be conducted as to avoid all unnecessary suffering No experiment should be conducted where there is reason to believe that death or injury will occur The degree of risk to be taken should never exceed that determined by the importance of the problem to be solved Proper preparations should be made to protect the subject against even remote possibilities of injury or death The experiment should be conducted only by scientifically qualified persons subject should be at liberty to bring the experiment to an end the scientist in charge must be prepared to terminate the experiment at any stage, if he believe that continuation of the experiment is likely to result in injury, or death to the subject
13 Tuskegee Study Study initiated by the US Public Health Service in poor, black men enrolled, offered free health care, and free burial if agreed to autopsy, not told they had syphilis Penicillin available in early 1940 s, became standard of care for syphilis by 1947 Participants were not offered treatment Some subjects coerced into receiving lumbar punctures, told receiving treatment, but none given
14
15 Peter Buxtun, a researcher, wrote a letter of concern to CDC in , CDC reaffirmed need to continue the study, AMA supported this position Buxtun went to the press in 1972 By then, only 74 subjects remained alive, 28 had died of syphilis, 100 died of complications of syphilis, 40 wives infected, 19 documented cases of congenital syphilis Led to the Belmont Report In 1997 Clinton formally apologized for study
16 Cincinnati Radiation Experiments Research funded by the US Dept of Defense to investigate the effects of radiation 88 cognitively impaired, mostly black men, with cancer, were given large doses of total or partial body radiation to observe its effects At least 8 patients died
17 The Belmont Report The National Commission for the Protection of Human Subjects of Biomedical and Behavioral Research, 1979 Ethical Principles and Guidelines for the Protection of Human Subjects of Research Very similar to Nuremberg Code to identify the basic ethical principles that should underlie the conduct of biomedical and behavioral research involving human subjects and to develop guidelines which should be followed to assure that such research is conducted in accordance with those principles.
18 Tricouncil Policy Statement: medical and other human research in Canada 1. Respect for human dignity 2. Respect for free and informed consent 3. Respect for vulnerable persons 4. Respect for privacy and confidentiality 5. Respect for justice and inclusiveness 6. Balancing harms and benefits 7. Minimizing harm 8. Maximizing benefit
19 Is there equal access to research? 60 s and 70 s focus was on increasing protections for patients involved in research In 80 s, increasing pressure from women with breast cancer and men with HIV for access to research trials Concern that particular subgroups have been systematically excluded from research SCD is now a priority for the NHLBI and ASH
20
21 Challenges in Sickle Cell Research Needs to be a multicenter collaborative effort Canadian Hemoglobinopathy Group SCDAC Lack of local basic science collaborations Lack of interest from the public and funding Lack of clinical and research infrastructure

30 Unanswered Questions Should patients continue on lifelong chronic transfusion? What is the optimal measure of success? HbSC disease? Strategies to optimize transfusions
31 Knowledge gap from kids to adults
32 Finding Research Let s search for something. Online dating for researchers and patients
33 Getting involved in research
34 What is a clinical trial? A clinical trial is a research study in which volunteers receive investigational treatments These treatments are usually developed by pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies Investigators are qualified physicians selected to conduct the clinical trial
35 Who can take part in a clinical trial? Before joining, a volunteer must qualify for the study The factors that allow volunteers to participate in a clinical trial are called inclusion and exclusion criteria These can include age, gender, previous treatment Criteria are used to identify appropriate participants, promote their safety, and ensure that researchers learn the information they need
36 How does a clinical trial work? Placebo Drug Medical Device Standard of Care Treatment A Inclusion and Exclusion criteria R Outcome Treatment B Was it successful?
37 What questions should be asked before choosing to participate? How long will the trial last? Where is the trial being conducted? What treatments will be used and how? What is the main purpose of the trial? How will patient safety be monitored, and are there any risks? What are the possible benefits? What are the alternative treatments besides the one being tested in the trial? Who is sponsoring the trial? How do I find out the results of the trial?
38 What questions should be asked before choosing to participate? What will happen if I stop the trial treatment or leave the trial before it ends? How much of my time will be needed? What extra tests or appointments will I have? Will I need to take time off work? Will the costs of my travel to take part in the trial be covered? Will I have to complete questionnaires or keep a diary? Who can I contact if I have a problem? What happens if I am harmed by the trial? Can I opt to remain on this treatment, even after termination of the trial?
39 What are the benefits of joining a trial? Play an active role in your health care Gain access to research treatments before they are widely available Help others by contributing to medical research participate in the development of medical therapies that may offer better treatments and even cures for life-threatening and chronic diseases
40 What are the risks of joining a trial? There may be unpleasant, serious, or even lifethreatening side effects to experimental treatment The experimental treatment may not be effective The protocol may require more time and attention than standard care trips to the study site more treatments hospital stays complex dosage
41 What can volunteers expect if they choose to participate? physical examination medical histories are reviewed the volunteers' health will continue to be monitored during and after the trial a detailed description of what's expected of will be outlined in the consent form
42 What happens after the trial? Data is collected to determine the drug's effectiveness, if it is safe and if there are any side effects Researchers then determine whether to stop testing or move to the next phase of study May submit findings to a medical journal for peerreview Data then may be submitted to Health Canada for approval
43 Sickle Cell Studies Stem cells to help with hip replacement for AVN Growing red blood cells in the lab from skin Optimising exchange transfusions protocols New iron chelation medication Diagnosis of Pulmonary Hypertension New drug to stimulate HbF Low bone density
44 Let s design a study! R
45 How to design a study! What is the research question? What sort of study do you want to perform? What s the outcome we are interested in? Who s the population you re targeting? Patients with Sickle Cell Any inclusion/exclusion criteria? How long will it last? When will we know when it s finished? Statistics Who s going to fund it?
