The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether guanfacine or cromolyn sodium can improve symptoms and physical functioning in adults with Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Both medications are FDA-approved for other conditions but are investigational for the treatment of POTS.

This prospective, open-label pilot study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, feasibility, and preliminary clinical activity of inhaled cromolyn sodium administered by dry powder inhalation in participants with locally advanced lung cancer. Cromolyn sodium is an FDA-approved mast cell stabilizer with an established safety profile in respiratory disease.
View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗This is a Phase II double-blinded study to assess the safety, tolerability, and feasibility of the mast cell stabilizing medications ketotifen and cromolyn compared to participants receiving standard of care treatment with fexofenadine alone in participants who have persistent symptoms of mast cell activation following a documented tick-borne illness (Ehrlichiosis, Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever, Alpha-gal Syndrome).

How do I join a clinical trial?
Open the trial's ClinicalTrials.gov record (the "View on ClinicalTrials.gov" button), read the Eligibility Criteria and Contacts and Locations sections, and contact the study team listed there. Trials only enrol at the sites shown in the record, so check whether a site is near you or whether the study is remote/decentralised. Your own clinician can help you judge whether a trial is a sensible option and may need to provide medical records.
What do the trial phases mean?
Early Phase 1 / Phase 1 studies test safety and dosing in a small group. Phase 2 studies look for a signal of benefit in a larger group and keep checking safety. Phase 3 studies are large confirmatory trials designed to show whether a treatment works well enough for approval. Phase 4 studies follow approved treatments after they reach the market. "Phase not applicable" is used by the registry for behavioural, device, rehabilitation and other non-drug interventions.
Does the Open Source Medicine Foundation run these trials?
No. OSMF does not sponsor, run or recruit for any trial on this page. We compile public registry entries from ClinicalTrials.gov so patients and clinicians can find them in one place. For questions about a specific study, contact the sponsor or study team listed on its ClinicalTrials.gov record.
