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 clinical trial (called the FLOTILLA study) is to give continued access to the study medicines, as well as safety follow-up, for participants in prior clinical trials of encorafenib and/or binimetinib. All participants who took part in earlier encorafenib and/or binimetinib studies may participate the FLOTILLA study if they are still benefiting from the use of the study medicines. This will be determined by the study doctor. People may not participate in the FLOTILLA study if they have not enrolled in a prior study of encorafenib or binimetinib. Participants that had enrolled but had stopped receiving the study treatment in a prior study cannot enrolled in this study. Participants in the FLOTILLA study will receive encorafenib and/or binimetinib at the same dose and frequency as in their prior study, for up to about 5 years.
A flexible energy metabolism matched with the contractile needs of the muscle is essential to a normal heart. Loss of metabolic flexibility and cardiac systolic efficiency coexist in Sepsis-induced Myocardial Dysfunction (SIMD), a phenomenon attributed to mitochondrial dysfunction and mishandling of energy substrates. Cardiac positron emission tomography (PET) could allow to quantify non invasively the selection of energy substrates by the hearts in sepsis and will be associated in parallel with functional status (ultrasound cardiography), injury biomarkers, apelinergic and metabolomic blood profiles. Comparisons will be performed between septic and acute on chronic heart failures, with or without systolic dysfunction.
GERAS DANcing for Cognition and Exercise (DANCE) is a therapeutic mind-body program for older adults (aged 60+) developed with rehabilitation and geriatric medicine expertise at the GERAS Centre for Aging Research at Hamilton Health Sciences and McMaster University. This study will examine if a virtual dance program is feasible for older adults and if dancing at home can benefit mind-body health, self-confidence, and mood.
This study will be a placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomized, phase 3 study in participants with Atherosclerotic Cardiovascular Disease (ASCVD) who are not adequately controlled despite maximally tolerated lipid-lowering therapy.
This is a 24 week study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of budesonide and formoterol fumarate metered dose inhaler in adults and adolescents with inadequately controlled asthma.
One of the most challenging issues in modern medicine is the current opioid epidemic. Given the association between opioid use after surgery and the development of opioid addiction, an essential goal of the medical community should be to develop strategies aimed at instructing the safe use of opioids. In addition, instructions on how to use non-opioid painkillers and exercises and techniques to better cope with pain can be used to reduce the patients opioid requirements after surgery. This study aims to evaluate the effect of providing an online educational video presentation to patients prior to surgery. This will be a 30 minute video which will provide the study participants with instructions on how best to use their opioid and non-opioid medication for pain and also teach the study participants exercises and techniques to better cope with their pain. This intervention will be used with a view to reduce the amount of opioids used by patients following hip or knee replacement surgery. Participants will be followed during their immediate phase after surgery to determine how much pain killers the participants have used and at six weeks the participants will be asked to return their unused opioids to see how much the participants have used in total.
The investigators will conduct a double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeated measures study of the effects of oral creatine monohydrate supplementation on motor skill acquisition and neurophysiology in young healthy adults. After baseline testing, participants will be randomized to receive creatine supplementation or placebo for seven days. Participants will then complete three days of training on a motor skill task while consuming a maintenance dosage of creatine or placebo. TMS measures of neurophysiology will be assessed at baseline, and pre- and post-skill training on the first and third training days.
Phase 3, randomized, multicentre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dostarlimab versus carboplatin-paclitaxel in patients with MMR deficient relapse or advanced endometrial cancer.
To document the clinical outcome of Rezūm therapy for BPH patient in Canadian cohort.
This observational study intends to investigate health trends and data in cystic fibrosis patients all across Canada that are receiving modulator treatment so researchers can determine if CFTR treatments are effective over a long period of time and if so, which treatments work best for each individual. The study will collect clinical data from routine standard of care, patient reported outcomes via survey data and samples for a biobank.
