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.
The XIENCE 28 USA Study is prospective, single arm, multi-center, open label, non-randomized trial to evaluate safety of 1-month (as short as 28 days) dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) in subjects at high risk of bleeding (HBR) undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) with the approved XIENCE family (XIENCE Xpedition Everolimus Eluting Coronary Stent System [EECSS], XIENCE Alpine EECSS and XIENCE Sierra EECSS) of coronary drug-eluting stents.
The goal of the ACCURACY study is to assess the differences, if any, in FFR measurements made by the OptoWire Deux FFR guidewire by comparison of simultaneous data of two different OptoWire DeuxTM guidewires (group 1). In addition, the investigators will compare (group 2) the FFR measurements obtained from an OptoWire Deux FFR guidewire and compare it to the FFR measurement by a VERRATA-TM guidewire to assess coronary stenosis in the routine clinical practice.
This project will test feasibility to deliver an online education and skill development program for family/caregivers of older adults recovering from a surgically repaired low-trauma hip fracture. We will also recruit health providers to review and provide feedback on the eCourse before we test its feasibility and acceptability with caregivers.
The purpose of this study is to compare the efficacy and safety of 2 doses of crizanlizumab (5.0 mg/kg and 7.5 mg/kg) versus placebo in adolescent and adult sickle cell disease (SCD) patients with history of vaso-occlusive crisis (VOC) leading to healthcare visit.
Based on the pharmacological class of rapastinel, this study will be conducted to evaluate the participant's driving performance after single IV doses of rapastinel as compared with single oral doses of alprazolam, a benzodiazepine that demonstrates driving impairment, and placebo in healthy participants.
The purpose of this extension study was to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of long-term dosing of Inclisiran. The study was a global multicenter study.
Cognitive impairments are a core and enduring feature of first-episode psychosis and schizophrenia, and are associated with significant functional impairment. Cognitive remediation (CR) is a behavioural intervention that has been found to have a small to moderate effect on cognition in individuals with schizophrenia, and recent studies suggests that it leads to improved cognition in persons with first-episode psychosis. Results from a CR feasibility project that was conducted through the Winnipeg Regional Health Authority's Early Psychosis Prevention and Intervention Service (EPPIS) showed promising findings. Specifically, large effect sizes were found in the areas of verbal learning and self-esteem. Moreover, the intervention was found to be acceptable to the participants. However, the findings are limited by the sample size and lack of control group. In this proposed study, the investigators seek to expand the scientific support for treating neurocognitive impairments in order to increase functional productivity associated with first-episode psychosis. A novel group CR program, action-based cognitive remediation (ABCR), has been developed by Dr. C. Bowie (co-investigator) to promote the generalization of cognitive skills to real-world activities. ABCR has been found to improve both cognition and functional competence in persons with schizophrenia. The primary outcome measure will examine whether ABCR results in improved executive functioning in persons with first-episode psychosis compared to psychiatric rehabilitation alone. Secondary outcome measures (e.g., memory, processing speed, self-esteem, emotional functioning, adaptive functioning) will also be analyzed.
Cannabis is one of the widely used psychoactive substances in the world. With increasing legalization, the prevalence of driving under the influence of cannabis will undoubtedly rise. At present, roadside detection of cannabis intoxication is largely dependent on drug recognition experts who rely on changes in eye movements when impaired. In this regard, use of eye trackers can help to detect impairment in drivers. The purpose of the present study is to determine the feasibility of the use of eye trackers in detecting impairment in participants who smoked a cannabis cigarette.
Sodium zirconium cyclosilicate has been shown to be effective and safe in adults for the treatment of hyperkalaemia, and therefore it is expected to be beneficial in children. This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of sodium zirconium cyclosilicate for the treatment of hyperkalaemia in children <18 years of age. Approximately 140 participants will enter CP at approximately 46 sites in locations including but not limited to Europe and North America for this study. Treatment will include 3 phases: the CP, MP, and LTMP. Enrolment will start in 2 cohorts, ages 6 to < 12 years and 12 to < 18 years. After review of accumulated data, the independent Data Monitoring Committee (iDMC) will recommend whether to open enrolment in the ages 2 to < 6 years cohort and later in the ages 0 to < 2 years cohort. All eligible participants with hyperkalaemia will enter an open-label Correction Phase (CP) receiving a fixed dose of SZC three times daily (TID) for up to 3 days until normokalaemia is achieved. Within each age cohorts 2 to < 18 years, initial participants will be allocated to the dose level (DL) based on body weight equivalent to an adult 5 g TID. After recommendation of higher DLs by the iDMC, subsequent participants may be allocated in the CP to on body weight equivalent to an adult 10 g TID and then potentially on body weight equivalent to an adult 15 g TID. All participants in the ages 0 to < 2 years cohort will be assigned to the same DL which will be decided based on data from older age cohorts. Participants who successfully achieve normokalaemia in the CP will enter a 28-day open-label Maintenance Phase (MP), which will be initiated with once daily administration of the dose received TID in the CP. During MP, the Investigator is able to titrate the dose up or down in the range 2.5 g to 15 g body weight equivalent to maintain normokalaemia. For participants who, at the end of MP, are normokalaemic or hyperkalaemic without being on maximum dose, the MP is followed by the option to continue the study in a long term maintenance phase (LTMP) where the same titration regimen is used as in MP.
CP (cerebral palsy) refers to a group of neurological disorders that appear in infancy or early childhood and permanently affect body movement and muscle coordination. CP is caused by damage to or abnormalities inside the developing brain that disrupt the brain's ability to control movement and maintain posture and balance. The signs of CP usually appear in the early months of life, although specific diagnosis may be delayed until the age of 2 years or older. TEV-50717 (deutetrabenazine, also known as SD-809) has already provided evidence for safe and effective use in 2 other hyperkinetic movement disorders, namely chorea in Huntington's disease (HD) and tardive dyskinesia (TD). Currently, there is no approved treatment available for Dyskinesia in cerebral palsy (DCP). The available treatment options address some of the manifestations of DCP. The study population will include pediatric and adolescent participants (6 through 18 years of age) with DCP with predominant choreiform movement disorder, who have had nonprogressive CP symptoms since infancy (≤2 years of age). Diagnosis of DCP is based on the Surveillance of Cerebral Palsy in Europe criteria. This is a Phase 3 study that will evaluate the efficacy and safety of TEV-50717 administered as oral tablets at a starting dose of 6 mg once daily in participants (age 6 through 18 years, inclusive) with DCP with predominant choreiform movement disorder. The study will be conducted in multiple centers and will use 2 parallel treatment groups (ie, TEV-50717 and placebo) in which participants will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio. "Predominant" in this instance indicates that the choreiform movement disorder is the main cause of impairment or distress.
