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 feasibility of VIrtual Motivational INTerviewing (VIMINT) to promote physical activity levels among older adults; post-intervention and at two-month follow-up.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)is a common and debilitating illness. For an unacceptable proportion of patients, depressive symptoms remain impairing despite multiple treatments. In August 2018, the FDA approved transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for the treatment of OCD based on a large study demonstrating efficacy. Our neurophysiological data and clinical data in depression suggests that we can enhance the effects of TMS by using an adjunctive medication called D-Cyloserine (DCS, 100mg) in conjunction with stimulation. The mechanism by which this is achieved is called synaptic plasticity, or the activity dependent changes that occur with brain stimulation. Research Question and Objectives: To conduct a randomized sham- and placebo-controlled trial of DCS in adjunct with rTMS in OCD. Participants will be randomized to receive 100mg of DCS or placebo together with TMS.
Phase 1b study to assess the combination of ARV-110 and abiraterone in patients with metastatic prostate cancer with rising PSA values on abiraterone.
Please note that Phase 1/2 (HV & MAD) cohort - recruitment is completed and Phase 3 Component (THRIVE) - is actively recruiting. The investigational drug, VRDN-001, is a monoclonal antibody that inhibits the activity of a cell surface receptor called insulin-like growth factor-1 receptor (IGF-1R). Inhibition of IGF-1R may help to reduce the inflammation and associated tissue swelling that occurs in patients with thyroid eye disease (TED). This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (the concentration of drug in the blood over time) of VRDN-001 in healthy volunteers and in patients with TED. Study participants with TED will also be evaluated over time for changes in their signs and symptoms of TED compared to their baseline measurements.
This pilot study is perfomed to validate and document faisability of the use of Frenzel lens and the use of a diagnostic algorithm for the assessment of a special sign (nystagmus) observe in the eyes of patients consulting in the emergency department (ED) for an acute episode of vertigo/dizziness/imbalance.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of treatment with pembrolizumab (MK-3475) compared to a combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel in women with mismatch repair deficient (dMMR) advanced or recurrent endometrial carcinoma who have not previously been treated with prior systemic chemotherapy. The primary study hypotheses are that pembrolizumab is superior to the combination of carboplatin and paclitaxel with respect to Progression Free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) as assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR) and Overall Survival (OS).
This is a Phase II study to determine the efficacy and safety of PHE885, a BCMA-directed CAR-T cell therapy, manufactured with a new process. The CAR-T cell therapy will be investigated as a single agent in relapsed and refractory multiple myeloma
This is a phase 3 open-label multicenter extension study designed to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of Lonapegsomatropin administered once-weekly. The study participants are adults (males and females) with confirmed growth hormone deficiency (GHD) having completed the treatment period in study TCH-306 (foresiGHt).
This is a Phase II, randomized, multi-center, multinational, open-label, cross-over study in adult participants with PD-L1-positive NSCLC. Two populations will be included: participants with resected Stage II, IIIA, and selected IIIB (T3-N2) NSCLC who have completed adjuvant platinum-based chemotherapy without evidence of disease relapse/recurrence, and chemotherapy-naïve participants with Stage IV NSCLC. The study will evaluate participant- and healthcare professionals (HCP)-reported preference for atezolizumab subcutaneous (SC) compared with atezolizumab intravenous (IV).
Oat fibre has been shown to lower cholesterol and may have cardioprotective effects. However, whether this translates to actual cardiovascular risk reduction is unclear, as there is a lack of controlled human trials. To address this uncertainty, the investigator proposes to use established cardiovascular disease risk scores, such as those recommended by the Canadian Cardiovascular Society and other clinical practice groups, to create composite risk scores in assessing future risk. The data on oat fibre will be collected through a systematic review of controlled trials, composite cardiovascular risk scores will be calculated for each eligible study, and meta-analyses will be conducted to assess the overall effect. The findings generated by this proposed knowledge synthesis will help improve the health of consumers through informing evidence-based guidelines and improving health outcomes by educating healthcare providers and patients, stimulating industry innovation, and guiding future research design.
