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 project proposes to conduct the first fully controlled and randomized clinical study demonstrating the impact of DPA-rich sea bass oil on the reduction of symptoms related to rheumatoid arthritis. This unique approach will allow to clinically evaluate the benefits of sea bass oil on the relief of rheumatoid arthritis-related pain in a population suffering from inflammatory arthritis.
This multinational, investigator-initiated, retrospective study aims to investigate outcomes of patients, who underwent transcatheter mitral valve implantation (TMVI), in comparison to those screened for TMVI but deemed ineligible, who subsequently underwent interventional mitral valve edge-to-edge repair, mitral valve surgery or medical/conservative therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of combination of brachial plexus block plus physical therapy on quality of life improvement in patients with frozen shoulder condition via standard questionnaires.
The VILT-502 study is Non-interventional Study(United States)/Low-intervention Clinical Trial (Canada) of Viltolarsen administered intravenously once weekly for 10 years to boys with DMD who complete the NS-065/NCNP-01-202 study.
There is a gap in the literature about the feasibility and implementation of parent-led support groups for parents who have children or adolescents with eating disorders. In this study, we will be observing the experiences of 40 parents in Ontario who will virtually participate in one of 3 parent-led support groups for parents of children and youth with eating disorders. Parents will be expected to attend the virtual sessions twice a month over the course of six months. We hope to evaluate the acceptability, cost, and parental outcomes of the parent-led support groups via surveys before, during, and after the study, as well as using a post-study interview.
DESTINY-Lung03 will investigate the safety and tolerability of trastuzumab deruxtecan in combination with Immunotherapy Agents with and without chemotherapy in patients with HER2 over-expressing non-small cell lung cancer. The efficacy will be also analyzed as a secondary endpoint.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of multiple ascending doses of INZ-701, an ectonucleotide pyrophosphatase/phosphodiesterase 1 (ENPP1) enzyme replacement therapy, for the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency. The goal of the study is to identify a dose regimen for further clinical development in the treatment of ENPP1 Deficiency.
This study will evaluate the Long-Term Safety and Tolerability of Atogepant 60 mg daily for the Prevention of Migraine in Participants with Chronic or Episodic Migraine
Following the degeneration of the macula and the loss of central vision, the patients naturally relocate the fixation point for high visual acuity peripherally, in an eccentric and healthy part of the retina (PRL), to compensate for visual impairments. However, in many cases, the PRL lands on a sub-optimal retinal area and becomes useless. Modern low-vision rehabilitation procedures for AMD patients include biofeedback training (BFT) to relocate the PRL to a healthy retinal patch and acquire better fixation skills. This study seeks to combine BFT with home-based immersive virtual-reality audiovisual stimulation and measure feasibility and potential effectiveness on oculomotor control and visual perception.
Burn patients very commonly develop abnormal scars after injury which can be red, raised or elevated, painful and very itchy. They can prevent normal movement of hands and other joints and lead to ugly deformities which makes physical and psychological recovery very difficult. This proposal seeks to test the usefulness of a cream called Nefopam to prevent and treat these bad scars after burns and other injury to the skin. Nefopam is a drug that has been used as a pain medicine in Europe but has been found to have anti-scarring properties in rats and pigs. It has been tested in healthy people and found to be well tolerated and safe. The study purposes to make a scratch in the hip skin in 60 adult burn patients at two burn unit sites, the University of Alberta and the University of California at Davis, Sacramento CA. Burn patients in the study will have a scratch wound in the skin of the each side of the hip, part way through the thickness of the skin which is shallow at first but gets deeper. This scratch is made with a special guide which precisely controls the length and depth of the scratch so that each scratch is the same. Part of the scratch heals without scar and the deeper part heals with a red raised scar over a small region less than 2 inches long. One side will be treated with the drug and the other with a control or placebo are in a white cream that is indistinguishable, where you cannot tell which side contains the drug. Once the wound is nearly healed, usually less than 21 days, the cream will be applied twice daily for three weeks. Measurements will be done about once per month for four months where the healing scratches will be photographed, measurements of the thickness made with ultrasound and mexameter for scar color or pigment and redness. Ultrasound is a painless probe that uses sound waves to measure scar thickness and mexameter is a painless probe on the surface of the scratch to measure color and redness. Both measurements take only minutes to complete. Patients will be asked to answer a scar assessment form about on how they feel each scratch during the treatment and the research staff will also the complete scar form as well. It is the aim of the study to find a cream the works to prevent and reduce scarring after burn injury in military or civilian patients. In the future, an useful cream for scarring in burn patients may also be helpful for other skin damage which leads to scarring.
