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 will explore the postprandial glycemic response of ALLSWEET®, a non-GMO certified allulose, when consumed alone or with sucrose, compared to the consuming sucrose alone. On 3 separate days, subjects will consume in random order ALLSWEET® alone, ALLSWEET® added to sucrose, or sucrose alone. Blood samples for glucose and insulin analysis with be taken for 2 hours following consumption of the beverages.
This feasibility study will look to identify the impact that a remote/virtual nutritional intervention can have on nutrition literacy and knowledge retention of the cardiac surgery patient.
This study is open to adults with chronic kidney disease. People with and without type 2 diabetes can take part in this study. The purpose of this study is to find out whether a medicine called BI 690517 improves kidney function in people with chronic kidney disease when taken alone or in combination with a medicine called empagliflozin. In the first part of the study, participants take empagliflozin or placebo as tablets every day for 2 months. Placebo tablets look like empagliflozin tablets but do not contain any medicine. In the second part, participants are divided into several groups. Depending on the group, the participants then additionally take different doses of BI 690517 or placebo as tablets for 3.5 months. In this case, placebo tablets look like BI 690517 tablets but do not contain any medicine. Participants are in the study for about 6 months. During this time, they visit the study site about 12 times. Where possible, about 4 of the 12 visits can be done at the participant's home instead of the study site. The trial staff may also contact the participants by phone or video call. Participants collect urine samples at home. These samples are then analysed to assess kidney function. At the end of the trial the results are compared between the different groups. The doctors also regularly check participants' health and take note of any unwanted effects.
This research will explore the impact of digital technology, specifically social media, on the health behaviours of mothers in the postpartum period by conducting an experimental study to test the effect of social media messaging on body dissatisfaction, eating attitudes and behaviours, and physical activity intentions and behaviours among postpartum mothers. The primary objective is to determine the extent to which body image messaging targeting mothers, compared with the control, result in feelings of body dissatisfaction and poorer eating attitudes and behaviours, and increased physical activity intention immediately following the 5-day exposure period. The secondary objective is to determine the sustained impact of the body image messaging compared to control at 1-month follow-up.
The purpose of this study is to test whether or not a medication called nabilone, which is a synthetic (non-natural) medication derived from cannabis, compared to placebo improves symptoms of itch in hemodialysis as measured by visual analog scales.
The purpose of this pilot study is to assess the feasibility of a remotely-delivered yoga intervention for breast cancer survivors.
This study assesses the glycemic responses to nutritional products. During a study visit fasted subjects will consume one serving of the reference product or the test product. Capillary blood samples will be taken at baseline and at several time-points over a 2-hr period. Several nutritional products will be tested over time.
This is a feasibility study investigating the image quality of a new, high-performance cone beam CT (CBCT) used for on-couch imaging during radiotherapy treatments.
The Vaccine Product, PTX-COVID19-B mRNA Humoral Vaccine, is intended for prevention of COVID-19 in a general population. This study is designed to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of PTX-COVID19-B compared to Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine in healthy seronegative adults aged 18 to 64.
