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.
This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetics of quercetin in healthy participants after the administration of different formulations in a single- and multiple-dose phase. In the single-dose study, plasma uptake (AUC0-24 and Cmax) of standard quercetin is compared with that of LipoMicel®-a novel food-grade delivery form of quercetin. In the multiple dose study, accumulating plasma concentrations of formulated quercetin are observed over 72hrs, after repeated doses of LipoMicel treatments (AUC0-72). At least ten healthy adults participate in an open-label, diet-controlled, crossover, plasma uptake study. Participants receive three different doses (250 mg, 500 mg or 1000 mg) of quercetin aglycone orally.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called marstacimab) for the potential treatment of hemophilia in pediatric patients. This study will enroll pediatric participants from ages 1 to 17 years in a sequential manner. The study will open enrollment to adolescent participants aged 12 to 17 years first. Then children aged 6 to 11 years will be permitted to enroll. Lastly, children aged 1 to 5 years will be permitted to enroll. This study will enroll participants who: - have severe Hemophilia A or moderately severe to severe Hemophilia B (with or without inhibitors) - have accurate historical records documenting all factor VIII, factor IX, or bypass agent infusions and hemophilia bleed events for at least 1 year prior to entering the study - if a non-inhibitor patient, must be on a stable routine prophylaxis regimen with factor VIII or factor IX replacement products for at least 12 months prior to study entry - if an inhibitor patient, must be on an on-demand bypass treatment regimen during the 12 months prior to study entry All participants in this study will receive marstacimab to use prophylactically. Marstacimab will be given once a week as a subcutaneous (under the skin) shot. The first dose of marstacimab will be given at the study site by the study site staff. During the 12-month treatment period, weekly doses of marstacimab can be given at home, or if preferred, the doses may be given by the study site staff. To help us determine if the study medicine is safe and effective, we will compare participant experiences when they are taking the study medicine to a historical period when they were not. Researchers want to see if the study medicine works to prevent the bleeding episodes commonly experienced by patients with Hemophilia. Participants will be in this study for about 14 months (approximately 1 month in a Screening period, 12 months receiving treatment, and 1 month in a follow-up period) during which they will visit the study site at least 10 times. If preferred, and if local regulations allow it, 2 of the study visits can be completed at the participant's home instead of at the study site. There will also be 6 scheduled telephone calls approximately every 2 months.
This is an open-label study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of evinacumab, a fully human ANGPTL3 antibody, in patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH), in a real-life setting in Canada. Eligible patients for this study are male and female adult patients with HoFH. Evinacumab will be added on top of the patient's background lipid-modifying therapy (LMT), including statins, ezetimibe, PCSK9 inhibitors, lomitapide or other lipid lowering therapies. This study will be conducted using an hybrid (on-site, foldable sites) approach. Patients will enter the current study, in an open-label treatment period, following their screening. This study will continue until reimbursement of evinacumab in Canada or for a maximum of 24 months. The end of study (EoS) visit will be scheduled 4 weeks after the last dose has been injected and will be followed by a 52-week follow-up.
This study is investigating a new technique for delivering chemotherapy directly into the lungs at the time of surgery. Delivering chemotherapy directly to the lungs could potentially kill any microscopic cancer cells that are present in the lungs at the time of surgery, while sparing other major organs in the body from the side effects of chemotherapy. This technique is called In Vivo Lung Perfusion (IVLP). At the University Health Network, this IVLP technique has been used recently in a Phase I study in patients with sarcoma, and we are now expanding on that experience to include patients with colorectal metastases. The purpose of this study is to test the safety of the IVLP technique and find the dose that seems right in humans. Participants are given oxaliplatin into one lung via IVLP and are watched very closely to see what side effects they have and to make sure the side effects are not severe. If the side effects are not severe, then more participants are asked to join the study and are given a higher dose of oxaliplatin. Participants joining the study later on will get higher doses of oxaliplatin than participants who join earlier. This will continue until a dose is found that causes severe but temporary side effects. Doses higher than that will not be given. The other lung will not be infused with anything, so that we can limit unforeseen toxicity to a single lung and see if one lung does better than the other.
Worldwide, >1.3 million adults are diagnosed with a gynecologic cancer each year. With rising survival rates, there are an increasing number of adults experiencing negative body image and decreased sexual functioning, resulting in reduced emotional, psychological, and social wellbeing and quality of life (QoL). It is vital that adults have access to programs focused on improving their body image and sexual functioning after a gynecologic cancer diagnosis. The Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation (ORCF) is a non-for-profit, community-based organization offering support to persons with cancer. Strong university-community partnerships are essential to enhance translational and implementation research efforts. Stakeholders from academia, the healthcare sector, and the community (ORCF) are partnering to establish and implement an evidenced-based yoga program co-created with adults diagnosed with gynecologic cancer and yoga instructors to address the wellbeing needs of adults diagnosed with gynecologic cancer. The specific objectives of this mixed-methods feasibility trial are to: (1) evaluate the feasibility (recruitment, retention, adherence, intervention fidelity) of (a) the yoga program and (b) the trial methods the investigators propose to use to evaluate its benefits in a future trial (i.e., trial methods), (2) evaluate the acceptability of the yoga program and evaluative methods, and (3) explore preliminary effects of the program on key self-reported outcomes. Data will be used to frame evaluation and implementation efforts.
The purpose of this dose finding study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of 2 different dose levels of CLR 131 in children, adolescents and young adults with relapsed or refractory high-grade glioma (HGG).
This study will assess a pragmatic, treat and extend regimen of faricimab against the standard of a fixed dosing regimen.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the effect of olezarsen on percent change in fasting triglyceride (TG) levels compared to placebo in participants with hypertriglyceridemia and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, or with severe hypertriglyceridemia.
The proposed study aims to simulate a meal eaten at home, where meals will provide a fixed amount of protein from beef or vegetarian substitute "meat" balls with ad libitum access to one of mashed potatoes, full-fat fries, or pasta. Postprandial glycemia (PPG), insulin, active ghrelin, satiety, amino acid response and food intake (FI) at the meal and again 3h later (after an ad libitum pizza meal) will be measured. In addition, post-meal PPG and satiety will be measured for one hour after the second meal.
The purpose of this study is to compare pembrolizumab (MK-3475) in combination with sacituzumab govitecan with pembrolizumab alone with respect to progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by blinded independent central review (BICR) among adults with metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with programmed cell death ligand 1 (PD-L1) tumor proportion score (TPS) ≥50%).
