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 efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib cream in participants With Lichen Sclerosus. This is randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled (DBVC) study with a DBVC period of 12 weeks followed by an open label period (OLE) period of 12 weeks.
The purpose of this study will be to evaluate efficacy and safety of Ruxolitinib cream in participants With Cutaneous Lichen Planus. This is randomized, double-blind, vehicle-controlled (DBVC) study with a DBVC period of 16 weeks followed by an open label period (OLE) period of 16 weeks.
Children and adolescents with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) suffer from many extra-intestinal side effects, including impaired muscle strength, low aerobic fitness, low bone density, and chronic inflammation. While exercise training can help remedy these issues in adults with IBD, no studies have examined the physiological effects of a structured aerobic and resistance exercise training intervention for youth with IBD. The aim of this pilot study is to to assess the feasibility, safety, and participant satisfaction of a structured 16-week training program for children with IBD. The secondary objectives of this study were to quantify the effects of a 16-week exercise training program on select physiological and behavioural outcomes in children with IBD.
The aim of this study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority (NI) of the immune response and evaluate safety of RSVPreF3 older adults (OA) investigational vaccine in adults 50-59 years of age (YOA), including those who are at increased risk (AIR) of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV)-lower respiratory tract disease (LRTD), versus adults >=60 YOA
This goal of this clinical study is to investigate the postprandial glycemic and insulinemic response in healthy adults after the consumption of: 1. Sugars from Fiber in comparison with dextrose 2. Sugars from Fiber incorporated into chocolate chips in comparison with regular chocolate chips
In 2012, it was estimated that nearly 1 in 4 Canadians suffer from allergic rhinitis. To add, 78% of individuals working in predisposing environments are predicted to develop occupational rhinitis. Currently, the most popular treatment for rhinitis is antihistamine medication such as diphenhydramine, a first-generation antihistamine sold commercially as Benadryl®. Due it its anticholinergic effects, diphenhydramine has been suggested to impair the whole body sweating response during heat stress, potentially leaving consumers at an increased risk of heat-related illness. This randomized control trial approved by Health Canada will investigate whether ingesting extra strength diphenhydramine (50mg) will alter whole-body sweat losses during 60 minutes of exercise.
Dialysis patients are prescribed an average of 10-12 medications per day, from up to 4-5 different clinicians and have the heaviest pill burden of all chronic conditions given their degree of comorbidity. One strategy for addressing the problem of "medication overload" is through scalable deprescribing interventions. MedSafer is an electronic deprescribing tool that cross-references patient health data with existing deprescribing guidelines and provides a deprescribing report to clinicians to facilitate deprescribing and reducing the burden of polypharmacy. In this study the investigators will test MedSafer on dialysis patients paired with medication reconciliation on an intervention unit compared to a control unit.
Annually, up to 150,000 individuals are affected by cervicogenic headaches (CGH) in Canada with many of these cases being chronic. Current treatments for CGH are limited in efficacy and durability - indicating a dire need for novel interventions in this population. Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and physiotherapy have a high degree of safety and have been studied as interventions for many other chronic pain conditions and headache disorders. We propose to study the feasibility and safety of tDCS alongside physiotherapy for CGH further in a randomized sham controlled trial.
This research study is comparing the effect of traditional standardized, subjective auto-regulated, and objective auto-regulated resistance training on physiological adaptations and performance measures in adults aged 50 years or older. Traditional standardized resistance training involves prescribing resistance training as a percentage of an individual's one-repetition maximum (i.e., the maximal weight they can lift one time). Auto-regulated resistance training involves adjusting resistance training based on an individual's performance during the session. Subjective auto-regulation involves the resistance trainee providing a subjective rating of perceived exertion based on repetitions in reserve (on a scale from 1 - 10) to adjust the resistance training prescription. A rating of perceived exertion of 10 would mean that the resistance trainee believes that they have provided maximal effort and believes that they could not have performed an additional repetition during the set nor increased the load. Objective auto-regulation involves adjusting the resistance training prescription from a linear position transducer (a device that has a string that attaches to the barbell and provides a velocity value on each repetition). A slower velocity value means a higher perceived exertion and load used, whereas a faster velocity value means a lower perceived exertion and load used.
The main aim of the study is to assess the clinical outcomes of current CMV management across different regions of the world (Europe [EU] and Canada [CAN]). Data will be collected retrospectively from medical charts. No study medicines will be provided to participants in this study.
