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 view variations in MRI measurements of the heart and the brain in people with anxiety versus healthy volunteers. The MRI measurements used will be Oxygenation-Sensitive Cardiac MRI (OS-CMR), a recent type of MRI which is safe, fast, and non-invasive.
This study will assess the feasibility and acceptability of a combination intervention including dietary counselling and omega-3 fatty acid supplementation among women with generalized anxiety disorder. It will be randomized and wait-list controlled with 25 participants completing the 12-week intervention immediately and the other 25 participants completing the intervention after a 12-week wait period.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called ARV-471) when given together with other medicines for the potential treatment of advanced or metastatic breast cancer. This study is seeking participants who have breast cancer that: - is advanced, may have spread to other organs (metastatic) and cannot be fully treated by surgery or radiation therapy - is sensitive to hormonal therapy (it is called estrogen receptor positive); and - is no longer responding to previous treatments This study is divided into separate sub-studies. For Sub-Study B: All participants will receive ARV-471 and a medicine called ribociclib. ARV-471 and ribociclib will be given at the same time by mouth, at home, 1 time a day. The experiences of people receiving the study medicine will be examined. This will help determine if the study medicine is safe and effective. Participants will continue to take ARV-471 and ribociclib until their cancer is no longer responding, or side effects become too severe. They will have visits at the study clinic about every 4 weeks.
This is a 12-week (with an extension to 52 weeks in a subset of participants) study comparing the safety of BGF MDI HFO twice daily (BID) with BGF MDI HFA BID in participants with moderate to very severe COPD.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy of teclistamab with PVd/Kd.
This study will examine if brain insulin resistance is a feature of depression in humans using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measures sensitive to brain insulin action. This study will examine adolescents, as depression onset commonly occurs during this age, and the impacts of cumulative medication exposure and other lifestyle-related confounds are also lower in this age group, improving our ability to understand the underlying biology.
This study will test the safety of a drug called SGN-BB228 in participants with melanoma and other solid tumors that are hard to treat or have spread through the body. It will also study the side effects of this drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. This study will have 3 parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much SGN-BB228 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if SGN-BB228 is safe and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.
Hypothesis/Study question (brief introduction of the question studied; about 5 lines) Appendicitis is the most common acute surgical admission to the pediatric surgery service at the MCH. The need for surgery can provoke anxieties for patients. Patient education materials are meant to improve knowledge, set expectations, and improve the overall hospital experience for patients and their families, and are already being widely implemented for elective surgeries in the context of ERAS pathways. This study aims to develop an effective patient and family education tool, with the goal of improving patient education and satisfaction with care in the emergency surgery setting. Study objectives 1. Utilize evidence-based methods to evaluate the success of implementation of a patient and family-centered education tool for appendicitis. 2. Develop and validate a pre- and post- education patient satisfaction and experience survey in the realm of pediatric surgery. 3. Inform the development of the education tool and survey through multidisciplinary and patient/family input. 4. Implement a patient/family-centered education tool in an emergency surgical setting.
The care pathways of people living with major neurocognitive disorders (MNCD) are often inadequate due to poor access to resources, long delays, and resources that are poorly adapted to expectations and needs. This situation was exacerbated during the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic due to the reduction of available resources and care provider burnout. People living with MNCD are at risk of becoming more fragile, which can lead to emergency room visits and hospitalizations, and significantly alter the quality of life of the dyad (family caregiver and the person being cared for). Intervening earlier in the care pathway would make it possible to avoid the aggravation of pathologies associated with MNCD and hospitalizations. The reorganization of activities imposed by the social distancing measures due to the pandemic has shown that e-health is a solution to maintain access to resources for people living with chronic conditions such as MNCD. We have been working since the beginning of the pandemic on the development of two complementary health applications for seniors and their dyads: the self-assessment questionnaire on frailty (CARE©) and the Evaluation et orientation SOcio-GÉRiatrique (ESOGER©) questionnaire : - CARE© is made by the dyad, allowing to identify a state of frailty and the risks related to it. It relies on the active participation of the user and is deployed in the form of an application. - ESOGER© is a standardized hetero-questionnaire filled out remotely, during a telephone call, by a community organization worker with the user and/or his/her caregiver. It is a tool for first contact, listening and accompanying a user, which makes it possible to determine whether the needs for care and services are being met, to prioritize the needs, to trigger the implementation of care and services, and to make the link with the organizations providing care and services. The objectives of this study are to examine the effects of CARE© combined with ESOGER© on the state of physical and mental frailty, loss of autonomy, quality of life, and consumption of health services and care resources in people living with a major neurocognitive disorder (MNCD).
The investigators have found that their patients who get earlier rehabilitation following ligament reconstruction and tendon interposition (LRTI) surgery with interference screws have experienced better outcomes. The investigators hypothesis is that when formally comparing these patients who are exposed to the rehabilitation protocol earlier compared to later, the investigators will see statistically better outcomes.
