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 evaluated the effects of a brief manualized mindful eating intervention as a treatment for overeating with individuals with overweight and obesity.
This will be a prospective study simulating return to school for two full days prior to the start of the school year in September. Volunteer students and teachers from six grade ranges will be recruited to participate in the study. In each grade range, there will be two classes that will participate, one that will be assigned to wear face masks/coverings at all times (experimental group/class) and the other that will not wear face masks/coverings at all times (control group/class). Students will be randomized to either the masking at all times (experimental across all grades) or no masking (control across JK-Grade 4) / masking only when physical distance can be maintained (control across Grade 5-Grade 12) class in their appropriate grade. Personal behaviours and person-to-person interactions will be recorded using video cameras. In addition, a safe biological indicator will be applied to the hands to simulate potential asymptomatic infection in a subset of students. Other students will have sanitizer applied so that students are blinded to who has the indicator. Cameras will be used to document how the indicator moves throughout the classroom.
Single center, randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled, single ascending-dose study for the evaluation of the safety, tolerability, and PK following single oral doses of INV-101.
Stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) is a new radiation treatment that delivers high-dose, precise radiation to small areas in the body. This new technique can potentially allow radiation treatments to be focused more precisely, and be delivered more accurately than with older treatments. This improvement could help by reducing side effects overall (through radiation exposure to a smaller area of the body over a shorter time period), and by improving the chance of controlling the cancer by more precisely treating the cancer and by giving higher doses of radiation. SABR is considered a standard treatment for some lung cancers, and selected cancers that have spread to the brain. Ongoing studies are evaluating the use of SABR for treating people with up to 10 sites of cancer in the body, but its safety and value for treating patients with poly-metastatic cancer (more than 10 sites of cancer) is not yet known. The purpose of this study is to determine the safety of using SABR to treat people with poly-metastatic disease. To our knowledge, this is the first time that SABR will be tested in people who have poly-metastatic disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the duration of response following withdrawal of ruxolitinib cream (Cohort A vehicle group), safety and maintenance of response with continued use of ruxolitinib cream in participants who have completed either Study NCT04052425 or NCT04057573 (parent studies) in which the participants will have been using ruxolitinib cream BID for the previous 28 to 52 weeks depending on their initial randomization in the parent study.
The main aim of the study is to assess if TAK-101 can reduce gluten related symptoms and immune activation in adult participants with celiac disease (CeD) on a gluten-free diet (GFD). Participants will receive TAK-101 and/or placebo through the vein on Day 1 and Day 8. All participants will receive active treatment at Week 24.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and tolerability of subcutaneous fremanezumab in the preventive treatment of migraine in pediatric participants 6 to 17 years of age (inclusive at enrollment in the pivotal study). Secondary objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of subcutaneous fremanezumab in pediatric participants with migraine and to evaluate the immunogenicity of fremanezumab and the impact of ADAs on clinical outcomes in pediatric participants exposed to fremanezumab. The total duration of the study is planned to be up to 84 months.
Elderly patients have an increased susceptibility to burns and a substantial mortality that has not significantly changed over the last three decades. Elderly burn patients not only have an augmented response to burn but also express a prolonged hypermetabolic response.Glucose metabolism with insulin resistance is a hypermetabolic response pathway that profoundly affects post-burn outcomes. The aim if this study is to determine whether metformin can improve morbidity and mortality in elderly burn patients. The investigators hypothesize that metformin will improve clinical outcomes and mortality of elderly burn patients by alleviating the complex inflammatory and hypermetabolic responses after burn.
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most common brain tumor in adults. The strikingly poor survival for patients with GBM (average survival 14-16 months following diagnosis) is due in part to limited early detection methods and an absence of effective therapeutic options. The study proposed would establish important evidence for the use of Health Canada approved drugs such as amantadine as a safe, effective and affordable way to monitor GBM. The method is based on the overproduction of a key enzyme in GBM cells called spermine/ spermidine n-acetyl transferase (SSAT1). The increased SSAT1 expression in GBM results in increased metabolism of the drug which is detected in the blood or urine of patients with GBM. The levels of acetyl-amantadine captured will be correlated with the tumor burden as seen on the MRIs of these patients. Thus, the study aims to determine the usefulness of amantadine as a diagnostic biomarker for GBM.
Phase 3 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study assessing the efficacy and safety of acalabrutinib plus rituximab,cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) vs placebo plus R-CHOP in subjects ≤75 years of age with previously untreated non-germinal center diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
