Research Study for Travelers' Diarrhea Looking for Volunteers If we determine that this research study might be a good match for you, you may join a pre-paid tour program or may make your own tour plans with your own travel and hotel reservations. Details on pre-paid or reimbursed travel and specific study related expenses will be provided by the research study travel coordinator and may be up to $1,500 depending on the completion of study visits and procedures. This clinical research study is being conducted at multiple sites in the US, with follow-up sites in Mexico, and Guatemala. The goal is to see if the research patch is better at reducing the symptoms of Travelers' Diarrhea than a patch not containing the research material, called a placebo. Study subjects will have a 50:50 chance, like flipping a coin, to get the research patch or the placebo patch. The research patch is placed on the upper arm for 6 hours, once at the start of the study and again 14 days later. After waiting at least 7 days from the last patch application, participants may depart from the US for their destination-country. Participants must check-in at a destination-country study clinic within 1-2 days of arrival in the destination-country. Following check-in, they may continue vacation travel until a follow-up clinic visit about one week later. After the follow-up visit, and depending on their travel plans, travelers will take part in the surveillance or observation period for at least 7 and up to 17 days while in the destination-country. If we find this research study might be a good match for you, you will be asked to visit a study doctor for the first of your two US clinic visits and will be able to get any additional study details you need at that time. www.TrekStudy.com
