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 purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for TAK-659 when administered in combination with NKTR-214.
The purpose of this study is to determine and compare the amount of study drug that gets into your blood after the administration of each of the three formulations of cetirizine under different conditions. Another objective of this study is to evaluate the effect of food on the amount of study drug that gets into your blood after the administration of the investigational formulation. Other objectives of this study are to determine the sensory experience and ease of swallowing the investigational formulation, as well as to determine the safety of test and reference formulations of cetirizine.
The main aim of the study is to determine if SHP611 given by injection into the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord (intrathecal; IT) prolongs the time for children with Metachromatic Leukodystrophy (MLD) to retain the ability to move from place to place. Other aims of the study are to determine the effects of intrathecal administration of SHP611 on movement and speech functions and to learn how well SHP611 injected in the spinal fluid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord is tolerated. Study participants will receive SHP611 for about 2 years with the possibility of an extended treatment period.
This prospective study will examine whether transient maternal hyperoxygenation is useful as a diagnostic test to more accurately detect TGA patients with poor vs. good neonatal intra-cardiac mixing of blood, based on the in-utero response to oxygen exposure. This study is Health Canada regulated
The main purpose of this study is to investigate the safety of LY3405105 in participants with advanced cancer. The study has two parts phase 1a and phase 1b. Participants will only enroll in one part.
This is a Long-Term, Single-Arm, Open-Label, Multicenter Phase 3 follow-on trial of the ARGX-113-1704 study to evaluate the safety and tolerability of ARGX-113 in patients with gMG. Patients who have completed at least 1 cycle of treatment and at least 1 year of trial ARGX-113-1705 and have started Part B are eligible to enroll in the open-label trial ARGX-113-2002 to receive efgartigimod by SC administration.
Coordinating Access to Care for the Homeless (CATCH) initiative is a multidisciplinary brief intervention for homeless adults with mental health needs discharged from hospital in Toronto, Canada. The study aims to evaluate the effect of financial incentives in facilitating treatment engagement of homeless people with mental illness, as well as in improving health, health service use and housing outcomes, compared to usual CATCH care, over 6 months, a critical time of transition from hospital to community care.
Traumatic rib fractures (RF) are a relatively common occurrence in patients of all ages, with a 10% incidence in all trauma patients and are associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Adequate analgesia is paramount for preventing pulmonary complications and can reduce morbidity and mortality. There is longstanding evidence of lidocaine's effectiveness and safety in the post-operative patient and the investigators hypothesize that this modality may prove to be ideal in trauma patients with RF. Therefore, it is imperative that intravenous lidocaine be investigated to ascertain if there is significant benefit for pain reduction in patients who have sustained rib fractures. A single-centre, double-blind, randomized control trial to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of a 72-96 hour IV lidocaine infusion plus standard analgesics versus placebo infusion plus standard analgesics will be performed on patients (age 18 or older) diagnosed with two or more traumatic rib fractures ,from blunt thoracic trauma, requiring hospital admission at Victoria Hospital. The primary outcome is mean pain score, as measured on the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) when the patient is at rest and with movement. Secondary outcomes are protocol adherence, patient satisfaction as measured on the VAS, incidence of respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation, hospital length of stay, ICU length of stay, mortality, incidence of lidocaine toxicity, treatment regimens (use of additional non-opioid analgesics) and total morphine equivalents used (including breakthrough doses). This trial will serve to quantify the analgesic efficacy of intravenous lidocaine for patients with traumatic rib fractures. Successful completion of a single centre trial will inform the development of a multi-centre trial powered to demonstrate a reduction in respiratory failure in the trauma population.
A common long-term side effect of anti-rejection (immunosuppressant) medications is skin cancer. This pilot clinical trial evaluates the feasibility of conducting a larger pivotal trial to examine the efficacy and safety of nicotinamide for prevention of keratinocyte carcinoma in solid organ transplant recipients. This pilot trial will transition into the pivotal trial if all feasibility targets are met.
Emerging adults (EA; 18 to 29 years old) in Canada are among the age group with highest risk of developing mental health issues. Despite this, they experience especially long wait-times for mental health services. To date, there has been minimal research into developmentally appropriate treatment options for the EA population. Mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) are emerging as a potential treatment to address this need. MBIs are group-based psychological treatments for coping with distress, with the goal of improving mental health. Unfortunately, these 'traditional' MBIs are very demanding in terms of time and homework and are therefore not sufficiently feasible for the demanding schedules of EA university students. Instead, recent studies suggest a role for briefer MBIs in addressing mental health symptom burden, well-being and reducing acute stress symptoms. The brevity of these interventions make them theoretically better suited for EA university populations. High quality research, including controlled clinical trials are needed to demonstrate whether MBIs can provide efficacious treatment to improve the lives of EA university students. The current study will test the efficacy of a five-week MBI baseline within-subject controlled trial.
