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.
This pilot study has been designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of PLLA as a single regimen for the improvement in appearance of cellulite after changes in reconstitution procedure.
This study will look at participants body weight from the start to the end of the study. It will also look at how much pain participants have in participants knee from the start to the end of the study and how this affects participants daily life. This is to compare the effect on body weight and pain in the knee in people taking semaglutide with people taking "dummy" medicine. Participants will either get semaglutide or "dummy" medicine. Which treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participants will need to take 1 injection once a week. The study medicine is injected with a thin needle in a skin fold in the stomach, thigh or upper arm. During the study, participants will have talks with study staff about how to eat healthy food and how to be more physically active. The study will last for about 1 ½ years. Participants will have 14 clinic visits with the study staff. At the first clinic visit participants will have a blood sample taken. Participants will have an X-ray of participants knee taken at the first visit. If participants have had an X-ray recently, this may not be needed. At 6 of the clinic visits participants cannot take pain medications for 3 days before the visit. Participants cannot take part if participants have had a joint replacement surgery in participants knee. Participants cannot take part if participants have or have had diabetes. Women: Women cannot take part if pregnant, breast-feeding or plan to become pregnant during the study period.
To assess the post-market clinical outcomes with use of the Axonics Sacral Neuromodulation System(s).
This study aims to evaluate alternative dosing regimens of single-agent belantamab mafodotin in participants with relapsed or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM) to determine if an improved overall benefit/risk profile can be achieved by modifying the belantamab mafodotin dose, schedule, or both.
Anxiety Disorders or Depressive Disorders with anxiety, affect about 3/5 pregnancies. It is known that if left untreated, these disorders are associated with poor delivery outcomes, ongoing mental illness, and negative effects on the child. The COVID-19 pandemic has created heightened anxiety in many people especially the most vulnerable. As a result, the investigators have seen that pregnant women report even higher rates of anxiety than in the past. Talk therapy is recommended but is underused in part because it takes a long time to learn and use. The COVID crisis has added another layer of complexity in that in-person treatment is not routinely available. The investigator team has adapted a talk therapy treatment, "Mindful adaptive practice in pregnancy (MAPP)" where women are taught skills to reduce anxiety. This treatment is done virtually over the internet in a synchronous group format. The overall objective of this study is to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and adherence to the clinical trial protocol evaluating MAPP on anxiety symptoms among pregnant women. This synchronous virtual treatment is novel and has the potential to change clinical practice as it will effectively reduce anxiety, takes a short time to learn and women will have access to it regardless of living in rural or remote areas. The results of this study will guide the development of a larger multi-site randomized controlled trial (RCT).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer. The study will also compare MK-4280A with the standard of care treatment of regorafenib and TAS-102 (trifluridine and tipiracil). The primary study hypothesis is that coformulated favezelimab/pembrolizumab (MK-4280A) is superior to standard of care with respect to overall survival.
The project aims to test the feasibility of a new digital (mHealth) physical activity support program, delivered through an innovative mHealth platform (Curatio) for individuals living with spinal cord injury (SCI) who walk. The rationale for this project is to understand whether a mHealth intervention for increasing the amount and quality of physical activity is feasible for individuals with SCI who walk. The plan is to assess engagement, acceptability and feasibility in addition to primary outcomes related to physical activity behaviour. The investigators hypothesize that the intervention will be feasible and acceptable to deliver to individuals with SCI who walk. The investigators also hypothesize that the intervention will be engaging but recommendations will be made by participants following the study. Finally, it is hypothesized that compared with individuals in the wait-list control group, individuals in the intervention group will experience the following improvements related to exercise after 8-weeks: fulfillment of basic psychological needs, greater autonomous motivation, have enhanced social support, better action control, improved facilitators for behaviour change, more leisure-time physical activity, better quality participation, and enhanced employment.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability and effect of study drug LY3372689 in participants with early symptomatic Alzheimer's Disease
The objective of this double-blind, parallel, randomized placebo-controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of consumption of polyphenol-rich cranberry extract standardized in PACs (36 mg PACs/capsule) on cardiometabolic and neurocognitive health in women and men presenting abdominal obesity over an 8-week intervention period. The study will be conducted at Quebec Heart and Lung Institute - Laval University. The study will involve a total of 60 adult men and women presenting abdominal obesity. Included participants will be randomly assigned to the consumption of a cranberry extract or a placebo at a rate of one capsule per day for 8 weeks (56 days). The main outcomes are changes in metabolic profile, neurocognitive performance as well as brain structure and function following polyphenol-rich cranberry extract standardized in PACs compared with the placebo.
With the COVID-19 pandemic, elderly people (EP) living at home have seen their health deteriorated, thus increasing their needs in support and care. Indeed, while it was estimated that before the pandemic120 000 unattended living at home EP required care and services (taking bath, access to medication and food, etc.), the number doubled after COVID-19. Therefore, the waiting list for socio-medical services for unattended vulnerable clientele without a family doctor grew from 1300 à 1715 EP in a couple of months during the pandemic. With these numbers, it becomes clear that an intervention is needed. Truly, the Institut National d'Excellence en Santé et Services Sociaux (INESSS) conclude that it was pivotal to first identify the most vulnerable EP and second re-orient them according to their needs. Thus the investigator developed the Évaluation et orientation SOcio-GÉRiatrique (ESOGER) questionnaire available on a secure digital plateform enabling both a rapid evaluation and intervention to asses EP needs and provide the adequate ressources. Investigator's previous research has demonstrated that ESOGER is one of the rare clinical tools of first contact in telehealth while being global, multidimensional, and equitable. For this study, the investigator aims to evaluate the effect of ESOGER on EP physical and mental health, loss of autonomy, social isolation, quality of life and ressources consumption.
