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.
Installing specific traffic calming features designed to reduce vehicle speed and volume around schools may lead to a reduction in injury risk for child pedestrians and bicyclists, and may increase numbers of children walking and bicycling to school. Therefore, this study seeks to evaluate the effectiveness of specific built environment features at influencing traffic speed and volume, and active transportation, both immediately following installation and months later.
The NeuroCatch Platform 2 (NCP2), an investigational medical device system developed by NeuroCatch Inc., consists of software and hardware that captures brain health information. The platform intends to provide a quick, portable and easy to use solution for the acquisition, display, analysis, storage, reporting and management of electroencephalograph (EEG) and event-related potential (ERP; brain response to a stimulus) information. The NCP2 uses two types of tones to elicit N100 and P300 ERPs, along with two types of words to elicit N400 ERPs. The objective of this study is to determine if changing the volume of the standard tone has an effect on the amplitudes and latencies of the ERPs.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) has demonstrated diagnostic and therapeutic potential for a number of conditions and is an approved treatment for depression. Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) has a significant impact on mental health, and comorbid maladaptive behaviors and pain are highly prevalent in patients with IBD and are often under-treated. The investigators predict TMS will improve comorbid maladaptive behavior (heightened interoceptive awareness, sleep, fatigue, catastrophizing, anxiety and depression), reduce pain and improve quality of life in persons with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Further, TMS benefits will be associated with changes in gut microbiome as measured by stool, blood and urine samples and normalization of IBD-associated changes in brain structure and/or function as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
This study is designed to describe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) participants in terms of their clinical characteristics, therapies used, disease progression, and outcomes (example, death, hospitalization, risk category for predicted mortality risk, and patient-reported outcomes [PROs]) in real-world clinical practice. This study will collect high-quality real-world data that may be used as a stand-alone dataset or in combination with other studies to address relevant research questions (example, serve as an external control dataset to another study) to support development and access to PAH therapies, as well as to contribute to the knowledge base of PAH through publications.

Suicide is a leading cause of death for children and adolescents. Since warning signs of suicide and links to precipitating events differ between age groups, suicide can be difficult to predict. As a result, children often seek care for suicidal ideation (SI) in the emergency department (ED) where a limited number of treatment options exist. Current psychotherapies and pharmacotherapies, such as antidepressants, provide benefit over weeks or months and thus limits their effective application in the ED. Consequently, when there is an imminent threat to the child's safety, the typical management solution is to admit the patient to a safe environment and hopefully de-escalate over time. To address a more rapid-onset treatment option for SI, a number of studies in adults have suggested that a single, sub-anesthetic dose of intravenous ketamine can rapidly reduce depression and SI severity. These results are promising, but large-scale trials are needed to determine if ketamine is a safe and effective treatment for acute suicidality in the pediatric population. This approach has the benefit of working rapidly, avoiding involuntary hospitalizations, and protecting patients from self-harm until they can be connected to longer term mental health resources. This study will compare the use of intravenous ketamine to both active and placebo controls in children 10 to 17 years of age presenting to the pediatric ED for SI. The primary objective of this pilot trial is to explore the adequacy and range of three instruments measuring suicidality and to determine the sample size required for a large definitive randomized control trial. This larger trial will be used to estimate the effectiveness of intravenous ketamine for reducing SI in children in the pediatric ED. The secondary objectives are to assess study feasibility and optimize study procedures. Given very few side effects reported in adult studies and the relatively benign nature of those reported, the investigators do not expect any major safety concerns in the study.
This is a long-term follow-up study to assess durability of efficacy, as measured by SVR, in participants who have received prior treatment with GSK3228836 and achieved a complete or partial response. No further treatment with GSK3228836 will be administered in this study.
The pain experience and its associated mechanisms in people with knee osteoarthritis (OA) are known to be complex and multidimensional. The current understanding of OA pain mechanisms is incomplete, resulting in limited pain management strategies. There is high-quality evidence that suggests the use of exercise for people with knee OA can provide a reduction in pain, changes in quality of life, and have modest improvements in physical function. There is promising evidence to support that yoga for those with knee OA may improve pain intensity, function, and stiffness. The aim of this study is to establish the feasibility of a pain informed movement program, in addition to education for improving pain modulation. The data collected will be used to inform a pilot and feasibility randomized controlled trial (RCT) prior to a multi site RCT to assess the program's effectiveness with the primary outcome of change in pain severity mediated by change in descending modulation.
Deep brain stimulation (DBS) is the most commonly performed surgical treatment for individuals with Parkinson's disease (PD). DBS typically works best to lessen motor symptoms such as stiffness, slowness, and tremor. Despite an overall improvement of these motor symptoms with DBS, past research failed to show an increase in community mobility and have often reported an increase in falling after surgery. The ability to move around on one's own is important for functional independence and improved quality of life. There is growing evidence supporting the positive effects of physiotherapy on individuals with PD. Gait and balance training, in particular, can improve mobility and also prevent falls. So far, no study has shown the effectiveness of rehabilitation in patients receiving DBS. The purpose of this study is to determine if DBS combined with physiotherapy is effective for improving safe independent mobility in individuals with PD, more so than with patients receiving DBS alone.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the preliminary efficacy and safety of NIS793 and other novel investigational combinations with standard of care (SOC) anti-cancer therapy vs SOC anti-cancer therapy for the second line treatment of mCRC. This study aims to explore whether different mechanisms of action may reverse resistance and improve responsiveness to the currently considered SOC anti-cancer therapy in the second line metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) setting.
