There are about 28871 clinical studies being (or have been) conducted in Canada. The country of the clinical trial is determined by the location of where the clinical research is being studied. Most studies are often held in multiple locations & countries.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of Dimebon in patients with Alzheimer's disease.
The purpose of this study is: - To assess the neurological outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients treated with NTx®-265, when compared with patients given a placebo control. - To assess the safety and tolerability of NTx®-265 when given to acute ischemic stroke patients.
This trial is a longterm follow up of a phase III study of inhaled cyclosporine for the prevention of chronic rejection in lung transplant recipients.
The purpose of this study is to assess the long-term safety and tolerability of Bapineuzumab (AAB-001, ELN115727) in subjects with Alzheimer's disease who participated in study ELN115727-301 or study ELN115727-302.
The purpose of this study is to determine if maintaining a high hemoglobin level in children that underwent bone marrow transplant will accelerate the neutrophil recovery.
The purpose of the study is to determine whether the effect of treating Candida spp. isolated in the respiratory tract secretions of patients with a clinical suspicion of ventilator associated pneumonia (VAP) on clinical outcomes will be feasible and supported by biomarker data obtained.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is commonly used for the detection of breast lesions in genetically high-risk women due to its high sensitivity. As non-cancerous conditions including normal changes due to a woman's menstrual cycle may have the appearance of cancer on MR images, a biopsy (generally performed under ultrasound-guidance) of the suspicious mass is required for definitive diagnosis. However, only a limited percentage of MRI-visible lesions are also visible on ultrasound (US). Even if found, it is often unclear whether the lesion identified on US corresponds to the MRI-detected lesion in question. The investigators have developed a visualization tool to assist the visualization of MRI-detected lesions in US-guided procedures (e.g., biopsy). This tool provides a simultaneous display of the previously acquired MRI data alongside real-time US images. The investigators propose a pilot study to assess the usefulness of this tool in identifying MRI-detected lesions using real-time US-guidance.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of obatoclax mesylate when given together with vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexrazoxane hydrochloride in treating young patients with relapsed or refractory solid tumors, lymphoma, or leukemia. Obatoclax mesylate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the proteins needed for cell growth and causing the cells to self-destruct. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as vincristine sulfate, doxorubicin hydrochloride, and dexrazoxane hydrochloride, work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving obatoclax mesylate together with combination chemotherapy may kill more cancer cells.
Atopic dermatitis is one of the most frequent skin diseases. The disease is often worst during winter months when the skin is drier. Mild to moderate cases of atopic dermatitis are often controlled by a moisturizer alone. The use of moisturizers has been shown to have beneficial effects on atopic dermatitis. It can break the dry skin cycle by hydrating the upper layer of the skin which may prevent the recurrence of the disease and can reduce the use of cream or ointment medications such as corticosteroids. Formulation 609580 20 was developed to keep the moisturizing efficacy of formulation 609209 but to improve its tolerance and cosmetic acceptability (easier to apply, nicer texture, etc.). The new formulation contains the same quantity of shea butter and glycerin but in a different excipient (inactive substance) than the commercial product. In addition, vitamin B3 was added to see if it could help in reducing itching. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy of two study products in children with atopic dermatitis. One of the study products (formulation 609580 20) is not commercially available (outside of clinical trials such as this one). The other study product (formulation 609209) has been approved in Canada and is currently available commercially under the trade name Lipikar Baume. For this study the child will be randomly assigned to one of the following two groups: - Group 1: 50 children will receive formulation 609209, the commercial formula for 42 days and will receive formulation 609580 20, the new formula, for 14 days. - Group 2: 50 children will receive formulation 609580 20, the new formula, for 42 days and will receive formulation 609209, the commercial formula, for 14 days.
RATIONALE: Methadone hydrochloride may reduce chronic neuropathic pain in patients with cancer. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of methadone hydrochloride as first-line therapy in treating patients with chronic neuropathic cancer pain.
