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 is a multi-center, open-label, 52-week safety and tolerability study of plecanatide in patients with Chronic Idiopathic Constipation (CIC).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the safety and tolerability of different doses of sublingual tablets of house dust mite (HDM) allergen extracts in adolescents with house dust mite-associated allergic rhinitis.
This study will compare the methacholine PC20 of two different modern-delivery aerosol systems to determine if one may replace the other for use in clinical settings.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of ISIS-PTP1BRx + oral antidiabetic drug/s (metformin and/or sulfonylurea) versus placebo + oral antidiabetic drug/s.
Mothers with previous gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) represent a population at higher risk of future Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), which is preventable through lifestyle modification. Yet, no formal prevention programs exist for this population. The postpartum period is a particularly vulnerable period for weight gain and unhealthy lifestyle in new mothers due to their competing demands of childcare and breastfeeding. This important time period may thus represent a 'window of opportunity' for women with previous GDM, whereby interventions to improve their lifestyle can be offered. Eligible women will be recruited during pregnancy from four hospitals and invited to participate in a home-based lifestyle intervention program starting from three to six months postpartum. This pilot study will investigate the feasibility and effectiveness of a physical activity and diet intervention. It will also explore the relationship between behaviour change and metabolic markers of T2DM in this high-risk population. Investigators hypothesize that the ADAPT-M program will be feasible and will be associated with an improvement in metabolic T2DM markers, as well as a high rate of satisfaction, adherence, and effectiveness.
This protocol is a multicentric interventional phase II study from the French CML Intergroup (FILMC). The core of the protocol is to explore the efficacy and safety of an optimization strategy consisting in the modulation of the dasatinib daily dose according to the results of repeated plasmatic levels of dasatinib. The objective of this strategy is to improve the overall results of the treatment of early CP-CML in order to avoid the development of resistance and BCR-ABL tyrosine kinase mutations. The study will be conducted in selected FILMC and Canadian centers. The study is sponsored by the Hôpitaux de Versailles and supported by Bristol-Myers Squibb. The dasatinib treatment will be provided by Bristol-Myers Squibb until marketing authorization is granted in that indication.
The investigators will conduct a randomized controlled trial study to provide preliminary evidence of efficacy of exercise training or a complex mental and social activities program for improving cognitive function in older adults with chronic stroke, compared with a stretch and relaxation program.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of an online informational video in improving knowledge about infertility in couples experiencing problems conceiving. A pilot study will be conducted with first and second year medical students.
Gynecologists are currently using laparoscopy to perform many surgeries traditionally approached by laparotomy. The technical skills required for laparoscopic surgery are different than the skills required for laparotomy, causing a prolonged learning curve. Currently there is no standardized laparoscopy curriculum for gynecology residents. This study aims to develop a specific evidence-based surgical skills gynecologic curriculum that could be instituted in residency programs at a national and international level. The investigators will then validate the curriculum using Obstetrics and Gynecology residents through a cognitive examination, a technical skills examination, and a video recording of performance in the operating room. HYPOTHESIS: The investigators aim is to design a standardized evidence-based comprehensive laparoscopic curriculum that focuses on cognitive knowledge, surgical skills, and team training exercises. The investigators hypothesize that residents in the experimental curriculum-trained group will perform better than the residents in the traditional residency curriculum-trained group on a cognitive examination, a technical skills examination, and in the operating room. The operating room performance will be judged by blinded experts on a previously validated evaluation tool.
Prospective, multi-center registry to be conducted at 6 Canadian interventional cardiology centers. The e-BioMatrix data will be compared with a historical control group, the Cypher arm of the Biosensors Leaders study consisting of 313 patients. All patients will be followed for up to 2 years.
