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 evaluated the long-term safety, efficacy, and pharmacodynamics of elexacaftor (ELX, VX-445) in triple combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for the F508del mutation and a gating or residual function mutation (F/G and F/RF genotypes).
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and pharmacodynamics of elexacaftor (ELX, VX-445) in triple combination (TC) with tezacaftor (TEZ) and ivacaftor (IVA) in subjects with cystic fibrosis (CF) who are heterozygous for F508del and a gating or residual function mutation (F/G and F/RF genotypes).
The first aim of this study was to elaborate and validate a treadmill walking test that would help discriminate between neurogenic claudication from vascular claudication. The second objective of this study is to determine if the treadmill walking test can discriminate spinal stenosis from low back pain with radiating pain in lower limb.
The purpose of this study is to determine if Rozibafusp Alfa could be a useful therapeutic agent in the current treatment landscape where subjects with SLE have ongoing disease activity despite treatment with standard of care therapies.
Cervical dystonia (CD) is a common movement disorder. Despite the optimization of botulinum toxin injection (BoNT-A) parameters including muscle selection and dosing, a significant proportion of patients report low levels of satisfaction, and a few of them develop resistance to therapy. The only options for such patients would be invasive therapy such as pallidotomy or pallidal deep brain stimulation. Currently, studies are going on the effectiveness of noninvasive neurostimulation in different neurological disorders. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) or transcranial pulsed current stimulation (tPCS) are known to be safe non-invasive intervention with almost no side effects that can be used to provide complementary treatment. To detect the dysfunctional regions five min resting state quantitative EEG (qEEG) eyes closed will be recorded and analyzed each time before and after noninvasive stimulation. The investigators will evaluate the efficacy of acute noninvasive stimulation in those CD patients who are already on 3 monthly BoNT-A therapy but the effect of BoNT-A is wearing off in 8 weeks. Kinematics (static and dynamic movements) of neck movements will be recorded using established technology before and after stimulation.
A Phase 2b/3 multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of MN-166 given to ALS participants for 12 months followed by a 6-month open-label extension phase.
The incidence of sepsis (severe infection) has increased over the last four decades. Severe sepsis and septic shock are among the leading causes of death for patients admitted to critical care units with mortality ranging from 20-70% depending on totality of organ dysfunction. Outside of antibiotics and good bedside care, little has changed in the management of this life-threatening problem. Therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) involves the separation of plasma from whole blood. The removed plasma is 'exchanged or replaced' with either IV fluids, albumin, blood products or a combination thereof. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety of the TPE intervention protocol within 24 hours of study criteria being met. TPE is now a well-established program at the South Health Campus for neuro-muscular disorders. Since starting in May 2018, the investigators have performed over 150 runs making the SHC ICU one of the most experienced centers in Canada.
The purpose of this observational study is to examine the level of activity in the prostate cancer population treated with Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ruxolitinib cream in adolescent and adult participants with non-segmental vitiligo for whom total body involved vitiligo area (facial and nonfacial) does not exceed 10% body surface area (BSA).
Neuropathic pain is a common complication following spinal cord injury (SCI) that significantly decreases quality of life. Treatment options are limited, and current treatments can have significant side effects. Those with SCI have identified a need for additional treatment options, particularly those that are not medications. Nabilone and an anti-inflammatory diet are two treatments that may provide pain relief while being better tolerated. This study will evaluate the benefits of these treatments for neuropathic pain after SCI. Study participants will receive either an anti-inflammatory diet or a placebo diet, and nabilone or a placebo for 4 weeks. It is expected that an anti-inflammatory diet and nabilone will significantly decrease pain intensity and improve function. The combination of both treatments together is expected to have a greater effect than each alone.
