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 is a multi-center, placebo-controlled, randomized, double-blind, multiple-ascending dose study in patients with hypoparathyroidism. The total duration of study medication treatment will be 13 weeks and includes a Fixed-Dose Treatment period and a Dose Titration Treatment period. The Fixed-Dose Treatment period consists of multiple daily dosing at a fixed dose level. Once patients have completed the Fixed-Dose Treatment period, patients will enter the Dose Titration Treatment period where PCO371 (or placebo), oral calcium and oral active vitamin D can each be titrated according to the patient's albumin-corrected serum calcium level.
To determine whether partially filling the bladder after outpatient gynaecological laparoscopy expedites time to first void and discharge. Methods: A single site, single-blinded, randomized control trial in which eligible patients undergo partial retrograde bladder filling immediately post-operatively compared to bladder drainage and foley catheter removal. Primary outcome is time to first void, secondary outcomes include time to discharge, post-operative complications and patient satisfaction.
This is a Phase 3 multicenter, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of infigratinib (an oral targeted FGFR1-3 inhibitor) versus placebo, as adjuvant treatment following surgery in adult subjects with invasive urothelial carcinoma and susceptible FGFR3 genetic alterations (mutations, and gene fusions or rearrangements) who have disease that is considered at high risk for recurrence with surgery alone. The study enrolls subjects with either bladder cancer post radical cystectomy or upper tract urothelial cancer post distal ureterectomy and/or nephrectomy. Study treatment is randomized 1:1 between infigratinib or placebo with treatment up to 1 year or until invasive local, distal, or metastatic disease recurrence confirmed by independent imaging reviewer.
cvMOBIUS is a North American registry of patients with ASCVD aimed at understanding patterns of care in ASCVD while evaluating the real world effectiveness of PCSK9 inhibitors.
Tonsillectomy is one of the most frequently performed surgical interventions in children. However, it is associated with a high incidence of PostOperative Nausea and Vomiting (PONV), severe pain and haemorrhage. There is strong evidence on the efficacy of Dexamethasone in reducing the incidence of PONV and pain after tonsillectomy, which led to consider this drug as a first line treatment in routine anaesthesia practice in such surgical setting. However, in the last decade, there have been arguments about the potential role of Dexamethasone in increasing the risk of postoperative bleeding in children and studies addressing the haemorrhage risk following administration of Dexamethasone for tonsillectomy are inconclusive.Thus, this study is aimed at providing evidence for the safety profile of Dexamethasone with regard to the risk of post-tonsillectomy bleeding in children when administered as a single intraoperative dose.
Individuals diagnosed with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) are at a high risk of developing dementia and are an important target population for interventions that may reduce the risk of cognitive decline. A diagnosis of MCI or dementia also has an important impact on caregivers, who show increased levels of stress, anxiety, and depression. Mindfulness meditation is a promising behavioural intervention that may have important benefits both for older adults with MCI and for caregivers. Previous research suggests that meditation may improve psychological wellbeing, reduce stress, and even improve cognitive function. Technology-based mindfulness meditation platforms may be a much-needed solution for promoting the adoption of mindfulness in these populations. The current study is a pilot randomized control trial of a mindfulness meditation intervention delivered via the Muse platform in two study populations: a) older adults diagnosed with MCI, and b) family caregivers of persons with MCI or neurodegenerative disorders. Muse is a mobile application for meditation that provides real-time feedback about the user's state of mindfulness during meditation via a headband containing electroencephalographic sensors (EEG) that the user wears while meditating. It is thought that this neurofeedback can promote learning and lead to faster improvements in meditation ability and, consequently, greater benefits from meditation practice. This aim of this pilot study is to establish the acceptability of the Muse platform as an intervention in the two study populations, to determine the feasibility of the randomized control trial designed to evaluate the effectiveness of a 6 week intervention with the Muse platform, and to evaluate the effect of neurofeedback on meditation. Participants will be randomly allocated to meditation with neurofeedback (NFB) or meditation without neurofeedback (no-NFB) and will complete daily meditation sessions for 6 weeks. An assessment visit before and after the intervention will evaluate participants' psychological well-being using questionnaires; their visual working memory, attention, and visual perception using behavioural tests; and their mindfulness ability using questionnaires and a behavioural measure. EEG will also be recorded using the Muse headband to examine changes in electrophysiological markers during cognitive tests and at rest.
The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of subcutaneous secukinumab 300 mg compared to placebo, in combination with standard of care therapy (SoC), in subjects with active lupus nephritis (ISN/RPS Class III or IV, with or without co-existing class V features).
This will be a prospective, single group, single-arm, and bilateral dispensing study. Subjects will be assigned to a single study lens type to be worn bilaterally in daily wear, and daily disposable modality, for at least 6 hours per day every day for approximately 12 weeks.
The study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of the oral Factor D (FD) inhibitor ALXN2050 (ACH-0145228) monotherapy in patients with PNH that are treatment naïve, or patients currently treated with eculizumab who still experience anemia and reticulocytosis, or patients currently treated with ALXN2040 (danicopan) as monotherapy. After signing consent, participants will have periodic visits through Week 12, at which time the primary endpoint and key secondary assessments will be analyzed. Participants will continue on treatment past 12 weeks into a long-term extension portion of the trial.
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) of VX-814 in PiZZ subjects.
