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 will evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of venetoclax when combined with lenalidomide and dexamethasone for participants with newly diagnosed, active t(11;14) positive multiple myeloma (MM). This study will consist of 2 parts: Part 1 Dose Escalation and Part 2 Dose Expansion.
Delirium is the most common neurological adverse outcome in elderly surgical patients. It is associated with an increased mortality and morbidity, including need for prolonged hospital stay and institutional care. Despite this, there are no effective preventive strategies. Melatonin is a hormone released from the pineal gland. It is used to improve sleep quality and to treat jet lag. Small studies have suggested that it can decrease the chances of delirium. Since the existing literature is small and uncertain, it is important to test its benefit in a large sample to help guide clinicians. This proposed trial is aimed at testing assessing the feasibility of a large, multi-center, randomized control trial to decrease the incidence of postoperative delirium.
The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of ablative therapy (radiation or surgery) to all sites of disease combined with standard treatments on prostate cancer, compared to the standard or usual treatments used to treat this disease.
The main objective of the study is to evaluate the use of Virtual Reality (VR) in managing pain and anxiety levels during common pediatric orthopaedic outpatient procedures which include: cast application, cast removal, hardware removal (ie. pins and screws), and botox injections.
This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of deflazacort in participants with LGMD2I. Most participants enrolled will have a screening visit and 3 additional visits (after 1, 13, and 26 weeks of treatment).
The purpose of the proposed research is to develop, implement, and test the efficacy of a theory-driven evidence-based peer leadership program for elementary school students (Grade 6/7; age 11/12 years) in relation to (a) their own leadership skills and their leadership self-efficacy (i.e., confidence to lead), as well as (b) the physical literacy of younger (Grade 3/4; age 8/9) students with whom they are partnered.
Given the ongoing national opioid epidemic, an increased interest has developed in optimizing opioid prescribing practices of physicians, including otolaryngologists. Endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS) is one of the most commonly performed surgeries by otolaryngologists with over 250,000 ESS's performed annually in the U.S. Multiple studies have shown that, compared to the amount patients actually consume, otolaryngologists prescribe a high quantity of opioids to patients recovering from ESS). It has been shown that these excess opioid medications contribute to prolonged use or abuse by the patient, family members, or friends. The purpose of this study is to better understand the pain management requirements of patients who undergo ESS for recurrent acute rhinosinusitis (RARS) or chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). This prospective, randomized, multi-institutional controlled trial will aim to determine the degree to which pain following ESS can be adequately controlled by non-opioid medications. It will also determine whether post-ESS narcotic use can be avoided entirely, or at least significantly limited. Patients will be randomized into two groups, each of which will receive a stepwise analgesic regimen consisting of acetaminophen and oxycodone or acetaminophen and ibuprofen. Pain will be assessed daily using visual analog scales (VAS) and the Brief Pain Inventory (BPI). The results of this study will help to develop a standardized approach to pain management in the post-ESS setting and help to elucidate the role of non-opioid pain medications. The ultimate goal would be to positively affect opioid prescribing patterns among surgeons who perform ESS in order to significantly reduce the quantity of opioids prescribed to patients while continuing to adequately manage patients' pain.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary clinical activity of CC-95251 as a single agent and in combination with cetuximab and rituximab in participants with advanced solid and hematologic cancers.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of single- and multiple doses of ARO-APOC3 in healthy adult volunteers and in patients with severe hypertriglyceridemia and familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS).
This project proposes to characterise the microbiome-derived metabolites produced upon ingestion of bioactive precursor-rich meals by healthy volunteers in order to investigate the relationship between gut microbiome composition and the nature of dietary metabolites production.
