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 aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of the My Choices - Alcohol program by comparing alcohol-use of people before and after doing the program to people that did not do the program on the same period of time (3 months).
The objectives of the study are (1) to evaluate the feasibility of using a combined spin- and gradient- echo (SAGE) sequence in dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging (DSC MRI) and (2) to determine quantitative estimates of vessel density and size to differentiate between areas of radiation necrosis and tumor recurrence.
The purpose of this study is to find out what effects of high heated humidity has on you and your mucositis.
69 subjects with ALS will be enrolled in the study and randomized at a 2:1 ratio to receive the study drug or placebo tablets. Randomization sequences will be in random block sizes and stratified for ENCALS risk category [high risk ≥ -4.5 vs. low risk < -4.5], and for background ALS treatment (riluzole and/or edaravone and/or sodium phenylbutyrate and/or taurursodiol) vs. no background ALS treatment. All subjects will be administered the drug/placebo twice daily (BID), two tablets each time, for 6 months. Subjects will be allowed to receive standard of care (SOC) treatment of approved products (i.e., riluzole and edaravone). Additionally, subjects will be allowed to receive treatment with off-label sodium phenylbutyrate and taurursodiol, which are accepted for ALS treatment. Subjects will be evaluated every 2 months for safety, tolerability (adverse events, safety laboratory, vital signs, ECG, withdrawal rates and reasons) and efficacy (e.g. biomarkers, clinical outcomes (ALSFRS-R and SVC, quality of life and survival). All subjects who complete the 6 months dosing will be switched to the active arm for a 12-month open label extension (OLE).
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of an oral tablet formulation of JNJ-77242113 compared with placebo in participants with moderate-to-severe plaque psoriasis.
The clinical study is intended to implement and test the collection and analysis of paired ECG data from the HeartWatch and two comparator devices, an Event Recorder and Holter. The HeartWatch is indicated for extended diagnostic evaluation of patients with transient symptoms of possible cardiac origin such as syncope and palpitations, as well as patients at risk for arrhythmias, but without significant symptoms. While the use of the device itself can be managed by both healthcare professionals and patients, interpretation of the collected data for diagnosis is restricted to healthcare professionals, as the data must be loaded and analyzed separately after recording. Patients indicated for extended ambulatory ECG testing will be approached for participation. Subjects will wear the HeartWatch and an Event Recorder for up to 72 hours or the HeartWatch and Holter monitor for up to 48 hours. Subjects will be asked to document their activities (standing, sitting, walking, exercise, or laying down). Event recorder subjects will collect user-triggered and auto-triggered data, while Holter subjects will record diary information on their activities and any relevant symptoms. Adverse events and user preference for one device versus the other being used in that arm will also be collected from all subjects. Paired ECG data from the HeartWatch and comparator devices is expected to be similar in terms of the events documented and the proportion of data that is clinically interpretable.
The primary objective is to establish the mean superior cup migration of the PINNACLE® Dual Mobility Construct using model-based RSA over the first two years post-implantation. The primary endpoint is the mean vertical subsidence (Y translation, also known as superior cup migration) at 2 years as measured with RSA. Additionally, the data from this study will be compared to historical PINNACLE® data obtained in study DSJ_2018_02.
For some kinds of surgery, Anesthesiologists provide nerve blocks (regional anesthesia) to reduce pain from surgery by injecting freezing medication around deep nerves with ultrasound. Nerve blocks help with pain control following surgery and reduce the amount of strong opioids needed but relatively little research has focused on the pain that occurs once the nerve block has worn off. This is called rebound or transition pain. This research study will prospectively collect data including pain scores before, during and after nerve blocks are given for surgery. We will look at the type of nerve blocks and other analgesia medications used with the aim of quantifying rebound pain to better understand how to limit it's impact on quality postoperative pain control.
Medtronic, Inc. is sponsoring the TYRX™ Pocket Health Study to evaluate the histological and morphometric parameters of the device capsule in participants who underwent a cardiovascular implantable electronic device (CIED) procedure with a TYRX™ Absorbable Antibacterial Envelope and are returning for a CIED replacement procedure.
The current study is a feasibility pilot of the Lausanne Trialogue Play paradigm Intervention - Brief (LTP-Brief), a family systems therapy implemented in a community mental health setting. We will study the ultrabrief, virtual therapy to assess the feasibility of a future pilot RCT. Feasibility metrics include resource, scientific, and management considerations, as well as an examination of pre-post change in future child and family outcomes of interest.
