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 trial is conducted in Europe, Asia, North America and South America. The aim of this research trial is to compare the efficacy of inhaled insulin to glimepiride and metformin combination therapy in treatment of subjects with type 2 diabetes and to verify the safety of use (hypoglycaemia, pulmonary function, body weight, insulin antibodies and side effects).
The purpose of this study is to assess efficacy and safety of volinanserin in the population of patients complaining of sleep maintenance insomnia. The objective of the substudy is to assess glycemic control in the subgroup of patients with type II diabetes mellitus.
In order to distinguish between clonal instability driven by imatinib in CML and actual changes with secondary clones induced by imatinib we would like to investigate the karyotype of non-CML patients treated with imatinib such as GIST patients.
The primary purpose of this study is to find out what the maximum tolerated dose is for an experimental drug called AZD4877 based on the side effects experienced by patients that receive AZD4877 on a weekly basis in these diseases.
Endothelin-1 is a powerful substance that may be involved in causing hemodynamic instability (problems related to unstable blood pressure) during and after open heart surgery. Tezosentan is an investigational intravenous drug that blocks the endothelin receptors. This clinical trial will assess the potential benefit of tezosentan compared with placebo in the treatment of patients undergoing open heart surgery with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). Treatment time is from the start of surgery up to 24 hours.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether ODSH, when added to conventional treatment, is more effective in treating COPD exacerbations than conventional therapy alone.
The purpose of this study is to determine the toxicity and anti-tumor activity of nab-paclitaxel 100mg/m^2 administered weekly in a 4-week cycle as first line therapy to patients with metastatic breast cancer who received taxanes as part of their adjuvant therapy and patients who did not receive taxanes as part of their adjuvant therapy.
Diabetes is a very common illness. Approximately 4% of British Columbians have diabetes. However, at least 20% of people admitted to acute care hospitals have diabetes. People with diabetes are at a higher risk for developing complications after surgery including infection and prolonged hospital stay, especially if blood sugars are high. The researchers are testing a Diabetes Action Team to see if their involvement in patient care after surgery improves blood glucose control, duration of stay in hospital, and infection rates.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to find out how successfully non-small-cell lung cancer patients are able to give an immune response to injections of the immunotherapeutic product GSK1572932A, and to find out more about the safety of this treatment. A course of eight injections will be administered over 21 weeks; including screening for suitability and all tests, the duration of the study for a patient will be 30-35 weeks. During this period various tests will be performed, including physical examinations and blood tests. The Protocol Posting has been updated in order to comply with the FDA Amendment Act, Sep 2007.
Subjects exposed to alefacept are to be enrolled. Subjects will be contacted every 6 months to gather general health information.
