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 safety and efficacy of TRx0237 16 mg/day and 8 mg/day in the treatment of subjects with Alzheimer's Disease compared to placebo. In addition, an open-label, delayed-start phase is included to demonstrate a disease-modifying effect of TRx0237.
This study is the first of three sub-studies aimed at evaluating the outcomes of Living Green, Healthy for Teens (LiGHT v2.1), an app for 13 to 17 year -olds and their families that is intended to help them shift from an unhealthy lifestyle toward better health habits in three areas: physical activity, nutrition and sedentary behaviours. This first evaluation has the following aims to: 1) describe reach; 2) determine utilization/adherence to strategies implemented in the app and predictors of utilization/adherence; 3) assess change in knowledge and lifestyles behaviours associated with obesity as well as assess mediators of behaviour change. As this is a formative evaluation, it will prospectively follow 500 families for 4.5 months.
This is an observational cohort study of 1000 consecutive patients on medical and surgical wards at the Mount Sinai Hospital in Toronto who have a mid-stream urine culture ordered. When these cultures are ordered or received in the laboratory, a message is posted that the specimen will not be processed in the laboratory unless a call is received to say that the patient has local urinary symptoms. The goal is to establish whether not processing mid-stream urine cultures is safe.
This is a single-center randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind feasibility study comparing the intervention of perioperative nutritional supplements (immunomodulation, carbohydrate loading, and protein isolate) with an identical placebo for each solution in patients with gastrointestinal cancer undergoing surgery. Eligible and consenting patients will be randomly allocated to receive the intervention or placebo in a 1:1 ratio. This study will assess the feasibility of a large, multi-centre trial by establishing the feasibility of randomization to intervention or placebo. This study will be conducted at the Juravinski Hospital and will enroll 100 patients over 18 months. The study intervention includes three perioperative nutritional supplements: (1) a protein supplement administered 3 times a day for 30 days before surgery, (2) a sugar-based supplement administered the day prior to and the day of surgery, and (3) a formulated liquid diet containing arginine, RNA, proteins and omega-6 fatty acids (referred to as immunonutrition for the purposes of this study) administered for 5 days prior to and 5 days after surgery. The primary outcome for each eligible patient is defined as being randomized to intervention or placebo. The criteria for success of this study is defined as the proportion of eligible patients randomized as ≥ 60%. If the estimated proportion is <40%, the trial will be considered not feasible. If the proportion is between 40%-59%, the trial will be considered feasible with modifications to improve enrolment. Other secondary objectives include compliance with study intervention, estimating differences in postoperative complications, length of hospital stay, and quality of life between groups.
A single-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of FDC olopatadine hydrochloride and mometasone furoate nasal spray (Molo; also referred as GSP 301) was conducted in subjects with seasonal allergic rhinitis. In this study, the efficacy and safety of two regimens (BID and QD) of the FDC (i.e. Molo 1 and Molo 2) were evaluated compared to placebo nasal spray, DYMISTA® and PATANASE®.
This will be a single center, comparative pharmacokinetic, open-label, randomized, multiple-dose, 1-period, 2-arm, parallel study of TNX-102 SL 5.6 mg (administered as 2 x 2.8 mg tablets) to AMRIX® (cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride [HCl] extended-release [ER] capsules), 30 mg.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of letermovir (LET) versus valganciclovir (VGCV) in preventing CMV disease in adult kidney transplant recipients. The primary hypotheses are that LET is non-inferior to VGCV; and if non-inferiority is demonstrated, that LET is superior to VGCV, in preventing CMV disease through 52 weeks post-transplant.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate changes in nasal airflow caused by loratadine 5 mg/pseudoephedrine sulfate 120 mg (Claritin D) tablet and fluticasone propionate 50 mcg per spray nasal spray (Flonase) in subjects suffering from nasal congestion and other allergy symptoms.
A retrospective cohort study of all patients treated for type II (hypercapnic) respiratory failure with either High-Flow Oxygen Therapy or Non-Invasive Ventilation in a general adult hospital.
The purpose of this study is to test two different vaccine schedules to be used for administering the investigational NTHi Mcat vaccine that will be targeting patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) to prevent acute exacerbations. An acute exacerbation is when the breathlessness in COPD patients will get even worse than it normally already is, sometimes to the point where oxygen therapy is required. In previous studies, study participants have received two doses of the vaccine according to a 0, 2 month vaccination schedule, in addition to standard care. The current study will find out if a third dose of the study vaccine against NTHi/Mcat is safe and working well. The study will also investigate if the third dose of vaccine works best when given after 6 months or after 12 months.
