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 determine the optimal cooling strategies to alleviate cardiovascular strain of coronary artery disease individuals during a simulated North American and Australian heatwave.
To define the parameters for dose-dependent engraftment of MET-2 commensal bacteria for the treatment of mild to moderate ulcerative colitis
The investigators have designed a guided, online, tri-component, stress reduction intervention for participants with inflammatory bowel diseases.
The Bean Study will examine the effects of consuming two daily amounts of canned beans of multiple varieties on fasting serum cholesterol profile in adults with elevated LDL cholesterol.
This study is intended for women undergoing their first cycle of 3 intrauterine inseminations. All 3 inseminations will be personalized by using algorithms to determine the dose of study medication.
The reason for this study is to compare the study drug LY900014 to insulin lispro (Humalog) when both are used in insulin pump therapy in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D).
Compare plasma metabolites following different conditions paired with a dietary MCT beverage over an 8-hour metabolic day protocol in young and older participants.
A study examining the benefits of music therapy on patients, families, and unit staff on acute neurologic or inpatient rehabilitation units.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of pembrolizumab (MK-3475) combined with lenvatinib (MK-7902/E7080) compared to pembrolizumab alone (with placebo for lenvatinib) in treatment-naïve adults with no prior systemic therapy for their metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) whose tumors have a programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) Tumor Proportion Score (TPS) greater than or equal to 1%. The primary study hypotheses are that: 1) the combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab alone as assessed by Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1); and 2) the combination of pembrolizumab and lenvatinib is superior to pembrolizumab alone as assessed by Overall Survival (OS).
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) principle, Protective Qi (PQi) is a one specific concept of Qi that provides the vital energy of the body. It works primarily on the body surface as a defensive barrier. In this context, PQi is analogous to anatomical barriers of the innate immune system located for example, at the skin surface and the mucosal surfaces of the respiratory and digestive tract. Individuals with PQi Insufficiency are predisposed to frequent cold and other symptoms caused by invasion of external pathogens ("Wai Xie" or "external evil" in TCM). ß-glucan is a polysaccharide that activates macrophage (Dectin-1) and neutrophil (CR3) receptors, and therefore enhances immune defense at digestive and respiratory mucosa. Clinical trials have shown its immune activity such as preventing upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) and Traveler's diarrhea. Notably, ß-glucan is a component of Ganoderma Luciderm (or Reishi / Lingzhi), one TCM ingredient well-known for improving Qi. Based on this connection, investigators hypothesized that ß-glucan is the active ingredient in Reishi that at least partially accounts for Reishi's activity on Qi. To test our hypothesis, investigators have conducted an uncontrolled pilot trial that investigated the effect of a commercially available, high ß-glucan containing product, Proglucamune®, on PQi status. Proglucamune contains ß-glucan from three different natural sources: Reishi mushroom, Shiitaki mushroom, and Bakers' yeast, each providing ß-glucan that differs slightly in their molecular structure. Through this pilot investigators sought to obtain an estimate of the effect size of Proglucamune on PQi that would allow us, via statistical methods, to estimate the necessary sample size for more definitive future trials.
