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 objectives of this study are to determine, in normal-weight and overweight subjects the effect of: Primary: oatmeal containing 4 g oat β-glucan on food intake at a subsequent meal compared to Cream of Rice cereal. Secondary: (i) oatmeal containing 2 g oat β-glucan on food intake at a subsequent meal compared to Cream of Rice cereal; and (ii) oatmeal containing 2g, 4g and 4g low MW oat beta-glucan on subjective appetite ratings, gastric emptying, postprandial responses of glucose, insulin, ghrelin and PYY levels compared to those elicited by Cream of Rice cereal. In addition, the relationship between amount, MW and viscosity of OBG and the primary and secondary objectives will be determined.
This crossover design experimental study aims to compare the physiological stability of premature newborns during and after a cluster of care compared to a period when they receive standard non clustered care at the neonatal unit.
This is a 2-part study to evaluate the safety and antitumor activity of MSC-1. MSC-1 is a first-in-class, humanized monoclonal antibody (IgG1) which binds to the immunosuppressive human cytokine Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), and is intended to treat adult patients with Advanced Solid Tumors. In part 1, multiple dose levels of MSC-1 in patients with advanced solid tumors will be studied to determine the recommended dose for further evaluation of safety and efficacy in Part 2.
This study is designed to address the evidence gaps in a real-world setting and help patients with MG choose treatments that are best suited to them. It is a prospective, multicenter observational cohort study of comparative effectiveness of MG treatments, with a patient-centered primary outcome measure, to guide clinicians, patients and payers regarding the choice of treatment options for this chronic and serious disease. Primary: To compare the effectiveness of azathioprine (AZT) and mycophenolate mofetil (MMF). Secondary: To compare the outcomes in patients receiving an adequate dose and duration of AZT or MMF over the 2-3 year study period, vs. patients not receiving adequate doses and duration of these agents
According to guidelines, when a mild-to-moderate hypoglycemia occurs (capillary blood glucose < 4.0 mmol/L), 15-20g of rapidly absorbed carbohydrates should be ingested. Patients should re-test and re-ingest 15-20g carbohydrates every 15 minutes until they recover from hypoglycemia. These recommendations were principally based on two studies conducted in the 80s before the introduction of intensive insulin therapy secondary to the DCCT trial and with insulin formulations with largely different pharmacokinetic profiles from current insulin analogs. Recent studies suggest that with current insulin analogs and intensive therapeutic approach, 15g of carbohydrates may be insufficient to rapidly correct an important proportion of hypoglycemic episodes. It is thus important to determine if the recommended hypoglycemia treatment remains the recommendation.
This study will examine the within-tester repeatability and between-tester reproducibility of skin test endpoint titrations performed in those with allergic sensitivities.
This is the first study to test Sym022 in humans. The primary purpose of this study is to see if Sym022 is safe and tolerable for patients with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available.
This was the first study to test Sym023 in humans. The primary purpose of this study was to see if Sym023 is safe and tolerable for patients with locally advanced/unresectable or metastatic solid tumor malignancies or lymphomas that are refractory to available therapy or for which no standard therapy is available.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the health benefits of a recently developed multimineral/multivitamin/phytochemical (MVM/phytochemical) nutritional supplement. This newly developed supplement - an advancement of a previous formula designed to enhance human health by providing RDA-levels of essential vitamins and minerals - contains eight phytochemicals selected to address fruit and vegetable undernutrition, and chosen on the basis that: 1) published research from cell culture, animal model and, when available, human clinical work, suggests that it may benefit human health, and 2) it is considered safe for human ingestion at proposed levels of consumption.
Positive urine cultures collected from indwelling catheters from inpatients will be randomized to standard reporting or modified reporting. Physician antibiotic treatment decisions will be prospectively observed and determined to be appropriate or inappropriate. The hypothesis is that modified reporting will lead to an increase in the percentage of appropriate therapy without an increase in pyelonephritis or sepsis.
