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 evaluate the safety, tolerability, and clinical activity of GSK3326595 in participants with relapsed and refractory MDS, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), and AML. The study will be conducted in 2 parts: Part 1 will determine the clinical benefit rate (CBR) of GSK3326595 in monotherapy and Part 2 will be expanded to study GSK3326595 in combination with 5-Azacitidine which will be composed of a dose escalation phase followed by dose expansion cohort of GSK3326595.
Stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is a highly prevalent condition of involuntary urine leakage associated with coughing, sneezing or exertion. Midurethral slings (MUS) are a safe and efficacious surgical option to treat SUI and is considered the best treatment by recognized organizations. Nevertheless, it remains a surgical intervention exposing patients to risks, possible recurrence and is not recommended to women planning to have more children. Incontinence pessaries offer an alternative to surgery with a similar mechanism of action as MUS. However, there is a paucity of literature on the outcomes of incontinence pessary treatment of SUI, with only two prospective studies have been published on the Uresta pessary and one australian case-series on Contiform pessary. The objective of the study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the self-positioning Contiform intravaginal pessary used as a conservative method to address stress urinary incontinence in women in order to provide Canadian real-world data. The 3-month efficacy, adverse events and global patient satisfaction (including comfort and ease of insertion) will be assessed. It is hypothesized that the Contiform device will be well tolerated by 60-70% of patients, with no serious adverse events. It will cure SUI for about 50% of them.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of OMS721 on 24-hour urine protein excretion (UPE) in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) patients with high baseline proteinuria (high-risk proteinuria group; 24-hour UPE ≥ 2 g/day) assessed at 36 weeks from baseline.
Hearing loss has been associated with decreased emotional wellbeing and reduced quality of life in aging adults. Although hearing aids can target aspects of peripheral hearing loss, persistent perceptual deficits are widely reported. One prevalent example is the loss of the ability to perceive speech in a noisy environment, which severely impacts quality of life and goes relatively unremediated by hearing aids. Musicianship has been shown to improve aspects of auditory processing, but has not been studied as a short-term intervention for improving these abilities in older adults with hearing aids. The current study investigates whether short-term choir participation can improve three aspects of auditory processing: perception of speech in noise, pitch discrimination, and the neural response to brief auditory stimuli (frequency following response; FFR). Sixty hearing aided older adults (aged 50+) recruited from the Greater Toronto Area will be randomly assigned to one of three conditions: a choir singing class (n=20), a music appreciation class (n=20), and a do-nothing control group (n=20). Choir participants will take part in a singing class for 14 weeks, during which they will take part in group singing (2 hours/week) supported by individual online musical training (1 hour/week). Participants will undergo pre- and post-training assessments, conducted during the first week of the choir class and again after the last week. Participants in the music appreciation class will be involved in 14 weeks of music listening classes, and the do-nothing control group will not engaged in an active intervention. All participants will undergo the same battery of assessments, measured before and after the 14-week time frame. Auditory assessments (speech perception in noise and pitch discrimination tests) will be administered electronically, and the FFR will be obtained using electroencephalography (EEG). Each of the four assessment sessions (two pre-training, two post-training) will last approximately 1.5 hours, for a total of 6 hours of data collection. The goal of this research is to investigate whether short-term musical training will result in improved auditory outcomes for older adults with hearing aids. It is predicted that the choir singing group will demonstrate the greatest improvements across all auditory measures, and that both the choir singing and musical appreciation groups will experience greater improvements than the do-nothing control group.
This is a multicenter, open-label extension study for participants who participated in a previous Astex-sponsored guadecitabine clinical study [including but not limited to SGI-110-01 (NCT01261312), SGI-110-04 (NCT02348489), SGI-110-06 (NCT02920008), and SGI-110-07 (NCT02907359)].
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of KEVZARA (sarilumab) in participants with polymyalgia rheumatica (PMR) as assessed by the proportion of participants with sustained remission for sarilumab with a shorter corticosteroid (CS) tapering regimen as compared to placebo with a longer CS tapering regimen. Secondary Objectives: - To demonstrate the efficacy of sarilumab in participants with PMR compared to placebo, in combination with a CS taper with regards to: - Clinical responses (such as components of sustained remission, disease remission rates, time to first disease flare) over time. - Cumulative CS (including prednisone) exposure. - To assess the safety (including immunogenicity) and tolerability of sarilumab in participants with PMR. - To measure sarilumab serum concentrations in participants with PMR. - To assess the effect of sarilumab in reducing glucocorticoid toxicity as measured by the composite glucocorticoid toxicity index (GTI) questionnaire.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of sarilumab in participants with giant cell arteritis (GCA) as assessed by the proportion of participants with sustained remission for sarilumab compared to placebo, in combination with a corticosteroid (CS) tapering course. Secondary Objective: - To demonstrate the efficacy of sarilumab in participants with GCA compared to placebo, in combination with CS taper with regards to: - Clinical responses (such as responses based on disease remission rates, time to first disease flare) over time. - Cumulative CS (including prednisone) exposure. - To assess the safety (including immunogenicity) and tolerability of sarilumab in participants with GCA. - To measure sarilumab serum concentrations in participants with GCA. - To assess the effect of sarilumab on sparing glucocorticoid toxicity as measured by glucocorticoid toxicity index (GTI).
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of BMS-986165 compared to placebo in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
This study is designed to define optimal doses of Dysport and evaluate its efficacy and safety compared with placebo for the treatment of vulvodynia. The study will consist of a dose escalation stage (Stage 1) and a dose expansion stage (Stage 2). Both Stage 1 and Stage 2 will consist of a double-blind period (with treatment cycle 1; Dysport or placebo) followed by an open label treatment period. One or two optimally safe and effective doses of Dysport selected from Stage 1 will be further investigated in the Stage 2.
The purpose of this study is to identify whether the combination of coconut Nourish and Queen Garnet plum are able to attenuate ageing-related complications, including muscle mass loss and inflammation. The study endpoints will measure muscle mass as the primary endpoint with blood lipids, glucose, blood pressure, and inflammatory markers serving as some of the secondary endpoints. As the two products are rich in dietary fibre and anthocyanins, respectively, the study outcome will help to understand role of these dietary components in improving complications that are seen quite frequently in elderly population.
