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.
A study to identify factors that are associated with improved effectiveness in pharmacologic therapy of Overactive Bladder, from the patient perspective primarily measured by OAB-Q-SF (Overactive Bladder Questionnaire Short Form)
According to the Canadian Cancer Society, 1 in 9 Canadian women will develop breast cancer in her lifetime and 1 in 30 will die. The single greatest risk factor of breast cancer is poor estrogen metabolism. EstroSense®/MD is a natural health product that promotes and supports healthy estrogen metabolism. It may increase the ratio of "good estrogen" to "bad estrogen" and potentially reducing the risk of breast cancer. For this proposed study, the investigators will be examining the effect of EstroSense®/MD compared to placebo, on estrogen metabolism in 120 women.
The objectives are to test the acute effects of different bagels containing pulse ingredients on: 1) post-prandial blood glucose, insulin and appetite for two hours, and 2) food intake two hours following consumption of pulse products. The investigators hypothesize that bagels containing pulse ingredients will lead to lower blood glucose, insulin, appetite and food intake responses compared to non-pulse bagels.
The purpose of the registry is to collect information regarding the number and type of coronary artery bypass (CAB) surgical procedure changes that are made based on intraoperative guidance information using transit time flow measurements (TTFM) and ultrasound image capabilities provided with the Medistim device.
This Phase 3 study was intended to demonstrate superiority of either sotagliflozin high dose or low dose versus placebo on glycosylated hemoglobin A1C (A1C) reduction at Week 24 when used as an adjunct in adult participants with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D) who have inadequate glycemic control with insulin therapy.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether dexmedotomidine is effective in the treatment of shivering associated with neuraxial anesthesia during cesarean delivery.
When patients are going to have surgery to remove large kidney stones (percutaneous nephrolithotomy [PCNL]), it is not clear whether the patients benefit from a course of prophylactic preoperative oral antibiotics; currently both the use of prophylactic preoperative oral antibiotics and no prophylactic oral antibiotics are considered to be within standard-of-care. This study will randomize patients to preoperative prophylactic antibiotics or no antibiotics to determine if the use of preoperative prophylactic antibiotics decreases the postoperative risk of localized urinary tract infection (UTI) and/or systemic infection that started in the urinary tract (sepsis or urosepsis).
This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, double-dummy, active-comparator, parallel-arm, multicenter study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of rituximab compared with MMF in participants with moderate-to-severely active PV requiring 60-120 milligrams per day (mg/day) oral prednisone or equivalent. Participants must have a confirmed diagnosis of PV within the previous 24 months (by skin or mucosal biopsy and immunohistochemistry) and evidence of active disease at screening. Approximately 135 participants will be enrolled at up to 60 centers worldwide. Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive either rituximab plus MMF placebo or rituximab placebo plus MMF. Randomization will be stratified by duration of illness. The study will consist of three periods: a screening period of up to 28 days, a 52-week double-blind treatment period, and a 48-week safety follow up period that begins at the time of study treatment completion or discontinuation.
This study is designed to demonstrate that Tysabri is effective in maintaining cognition in MS patients after 5 or more years of continuous treatment. During a second period of 36 months, the extension study will assess the evolution of cognitive function in Tysabri treated MS patients using the Symbol Digit Modalities Test (SDMT) and a CogState battery of tests.
Patients undergoing foot and ankle surgery have the option of having a nerve block administered by their Anesthesiologist. The nerve block numbs the foot and results in less post-operative nausea and vomiting, and better pain control. Two different techniques for blocking the saphenous nerve to the foot have been described and are both commonly used at St. Paul's hospital. The goal of this study is to compare the success rates of these two techniques.
