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.
A study to assess the real-life management and use of healthcare resources during the initiation of: - Venetoclax in combination with rituximab is indicated for the treatment of adult participants with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) who have received at least one prior therapy. - Venetoclax in participants with CLL with the deletion of the short arm of chromosome 17 (del[17p]) who have received at least 1 prior therapy or participants with CLL without del(17p) who have received at least 1 prior therapy and for whom there are no other available treatment options.
The prevention of perioperative atrial fibrillation (AF) and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery (MINS) has the potential to reduce mortality, stroke, and hospital stays in patients undergoing major thoracic surgery. Data from cardiac surgery patients suggest that prevention of perioperative atrial fibrillation using an anti-inflammatory agent, such as colchicine, is feasible. The COP-AF trial will assess whether the administration of oral colchicine will reduce the incidence of perioperative atrial fibrillation and myocardial injury after non-cardiac surgery in patients undergoing major thoracic surgery.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the feasibility and obtain pilot outcome data for a subsequent definitive trial evaluating the effects of postitive airway pressure (PAP) treatment of obstructive sleep-disordered breathing (OSDB) on blood pressure control and maternal and fetal outcomes in hypertensive disorders of pregnancy. The primary aim of the pilot study is to assess feasibility measured as the rates of subject recruitment, adequate (>4h/night) PAP adherence (primary outcome measure) and protocol completion. Secondary aims will be to obtain preliminary data on the effects of PAP on maternal blood pressure, complications of hypertension, arterial stiffness and vascular biomarkers, course of labor and delivery and fetal outcomes including growth restriction, prematurity, and neonatal distress.
This retrospective, population-based cohort study will evaluate the comparative effectiveness of peripheral nerve blocks on patient outcomes after ambulatory shoulder surgery in adults patients undergoing surgery in Ottawa, Ontario.
Intravenous catheters are often placed in large (central) veins in critically ill patients to provide special medications or frequent blood sampling. The body reacts to the presence of foreign material by forming a biofilm on the surface within the catheter. Either due to the patients condition or to emergency access to these intravenous lines can become infected with bacteria and reside within the biofilm. When bacteria is grown from these lines it is referred to as: a central line infection. A medical device company (ICU Medical) has obtained the rights to a device that delivers a controlled amount of a cleaning material called chlorhexidine into the catheter to prevent bacterial growth when not in use. Chlorhexidine is the standard cleaning material used on patients when cleaning the skin for surgical procedures or central intravenous catheter insertion. In laboratory tests and animal studies that chlorhexidine inhibits the growth of bacteria and fungi that often cause central line infections. This study will the first assessment in patients with central lines.
The purpose of the present study is to explore the influence of cooking methods of potatoes on post-prandial glycaemia and satiety in healthy older adults.
This investigator driven Phase Ib study will examine the safety, efficacy and biological effects of two schedules of pembrolizumab, an antibody targeted against anti-programmed cell death 1 (PD-1), which will be given either before or after stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) for metastatic NSCLC.
The purpose of the present study is to explore the influence of cooking methods on post-prandial glycaemia and its impact on satiety in children.
This is a 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled parallel group design study involving Vascular cognitive impairment-no dementia (VCIND) patients to evaluate the efficacy and safety of oral NAC supplementation (2,400 mg daily) as an add-on therapy to improve cognitive function in patients undergoing cardiac rehabilitation (CR). The CR program consists of a harmonized aerobic and resistance training in a supervised group setting. Eligible patients will be randomized to receive NAC (four 600 mg capsules given as 2 capsules in the morning and 2 capsules in the evening) or matching placebo capsules. The initial NAC dosage will be 600mg/day (one 600mg capsule in the morning) for the first week, followed by 1,200 mg/day (one 600 mg capsule in the morning, one 600mg capsule in the evening) for the second week, followed by 1,800 mg/day (two 600mg capsules in the morning, one 600mg capsule in the evening) for third week, followed by 2,400mg/day (two 600mg capsules in the morning, two 600mg capsules in the evening) for the following 21 weeks.
Multicenter, randomized, open-label, crossover PK study of ASTX727 versus IV decitabine. Adult subjects who are candidates to receive IV decitabine will be randomized 1:1 to receive the ASTX727 tablet Daily×5 in Cycle 1 followed by IV decitabine 20 mg/m^2 Daily×5 in Cycle 2, or the converse order. After completion of PK studies during the first 2 treatment cycles, subjects will continue to receive treatment with ASTX727 from Cycle 3 onward (in 28-day cycles) until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or the subject discontinues treatment or withdraws from the study.
