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 study aims to collect, analyze and preserve biospecimens from patients with or without LRRK2-associated Parkinson's Disease for the purpose of discovering and developing new treatments and novel biomarkers.
The safety and efficacy of once daily application of IDP 126 Gel will be compared to Epiduo® Forte and IDP-126 Vehicle Gel.
The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the safety and dosing of the study drug, magrolimab, in combination with other anticancer therapies in participants with relapsed/refractory multiple myeloma.
This is a global, open-label, randomized, 2-arm, Investigator's choice Phase 3 (Pivotal Stage) study to investigate the efficacy/performance and safety of NBTXR3/RT±cetuximab versus RT±cetuximab in treatment-naïve, platinum-ineligible, elderly participants with LA-HNSCC.
This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, multi-site study in which up to approximately 36 subjects with a recent C. difficile infection (CDI) who have completed a standard of care course of CDI antibiotics and have achieved clinical cure based on signs and symptoms, will be randomized to 7 or 28 daily doses of ART24 or placebo. Subjects will be followed for 6 months after the last dose of study drug.
This study evaluates the effect of a 10-week long intervention with the StimaWELL 120MTRS system on multifidus morphology and function in individuals with chronic low back pain. Half the participants will receive muscle therapy at the device's phasic setting, while half will receive muscle therapy at the device's combined setting. This study also evaluates the acute effect of a single treatment with the StimaWELL 120MTRS on multifidus stiffness in individuals with chronic low back pain.
This randomized pragmatic trial will generate knowledge about strategies used to de-escalate tumor necrosis factor inhibitor (TNFi) therapy in patients with juvenile spondyloarthritis with sustained inactive disease and are treated at one of the 29 participating pediatric healthcare systems. This open label study will be conducted in the setting of routine clinical care and will compare the risk and timing of flare (Aim 1) and patients' lived experiences (Aim 2) across three arms.
The purpose of this study is to assess if wearing a surgical mask affects the results of a standard treadmill test.
Early stage high-grade cancer, endometrial and ovarian, has few, if any, symptoms or signs. When symptoms appear, the disease may be in advanced stage as the disease has left the gynaecological organs and metastasized to the pelvic/abdominal cavity. The McGill research group had showed in the DOvEE trial (NCT02296307), that fast-track assessment with transvaginal ultrasound scans (TVUS) and serial CA125 of women with vague symptoms associated with ovarian and endometrial cancer did diagnose these cancers earlier in the disease trajectory, with low-volume resectable disease, but only after the cancer had already become Stage III. One way to detect these cancers earlier is to screen asymptomatic women. Unfortunately, none of the currently available tests, including TVUS and CA-125 have been shown to be useful for screening for ovarian or endometrial cancer. The McGill team has developed a genomic assay to screen and detect these cancers earlier in the trajectory than is currently the case. The test identifies pathogenic somatic mutations (necessary early steps in the development of these cancers), in an uterine cytological sample. It is able to do so by incorporating a deep machine-learning derived classifier that can discriminate the mutational signature of these cancers from benign disease with a sensitivity of 70% and a specificity of 100% in a population with high background mutational burden. In addition to the intra-uterine cytological sample, the test includes an assay of a saliva sample to identify germline mutations that predispose to hereditary endometrial/ovarian cancers as well as breast and colon cancers. The test was developed in a retrospective population in whom the assay was done pre-operatively and the diagnosis of malignancy versus benign gynecological disease was confirmed by detailed pathological analysis of the uterus, tubes, and ovaries after surgical resection (NCT02288676). The test is now ready to be tested as a phase III diagnostic test in the general population to see if these results are just as promising in the community at large.
Pelvic organ prolapse (POP) is the descent of pelvic organs into the vagina resulting in bulge symptoms and occurs in approximately 50% of women. Almost 20% of women will elect surgical correction of this condition by age 85. Removal of the uterus (hysterectomy) with concomitant vaginal vault suspension is a longstanding practice in POP surgery to address apical (uterine) prolapse. Yet, contemporary evidence on the merits of this approach relative to preservation of the uterus through suspension is needed to better inform surgical decision-making by patients and their healthcare providers. The objective of this trial is to evaluate POP-specific health outcomes and service utilization of women electing uterine suspension compared to those electing hysterectomy and vaginal vault suspension for POP surgery up to 1-year post-surgery.
