NCCIH Multi-Site Feasibility Clinical Trials of Mind and Body Interventions

Funds the multisite feasibility trial that has to happen before a full-scale trial of a complementary or integrative therapy can be designed.

OpenNational Institutes of HealthUnited States

The National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health has watched enough large trials fail on logistics to fund the rehearsal separately.

The interventions in scope are complementary and integrative health approaches with physical or psychological therapeutic inputs โ€” often called mind and body interventions โ€” and they have to sit in an area the centre has designated as high research priorโ€ฆ

Multisite feasibility clinical trials of complementary and integrative health approaches with physical or psychological therapeutic inputs, in areas of high research priority, testing cross-site delivery fidelity, recruitment, accrual, randomisation, adherence, retention, refinement of protocolised multimodal interventions and cross-site data collection, in preparation for a described future efficacy, effectiveness, pragmatic or implementation trial.
