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 single-arm, open-label, multi-site, single-dose Phase 1/2/3 study in subjects with severe sickle cell disease (SCD). The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of autologous CRISPR-Cas9 Modified CD34+ Human Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells (hHSPCs) using CTX001.
This is a Phase 3, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled multicenter global study designed to compare the efficacy and safety of tislelizumab in combination with concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCRT) followed by tislelizumab monotherapy versus cCRT alone, and tislelizumab given sequentially after cCRT versus cCRT alone, in newly diagnosed stage III subjects with locally advanced, unresectable non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The primary endpoint is centrally-assessed progression free survival (PFS) in the intent-to-treat (ITT) population. .
This is a randomized controlled single-center study that will be conducted in the intensive care unit. The main objective of this study is to assess the success rate of ultrasound-guided peripheral intravenous cannulation in ICU patients with difficult intravenous access compared with traditional landmark technique.
Our aim, in this study, is to elucidate the optimal dosing range (ED50 and ED95) of bolus remifentanil in order to counter the painful stimuli resulting from direct laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation by using the NOL index. In order to maximize the clinical relevance of our findings, induction of general anesthesia will be done with standard medications and doses and laryngoscopy will be done with the Macintosh laryngoscope, the most common tool used for intubation in the operating room
This trial investigates the efficacy and safety of clazakizumab [an anti-interleukin (IL)-6 monoclonal antibody (mAb)] for the treatment of CABMR in recipients of a kidney transplant.
Sore throat is a common problem in children typically caused by viral or bacterial infections. While viral infections resolve without treatment, bacterial infections, such as "strep throat," are treatable with antibiotics. Diagnosing "strep throat" traditionally required a throat swab for culture that delays treatment for several days. This may result in prolonged illness, activity absenteeism, and significant healthcare costs. New molecular tests can accurately diagnose "strep throat" within 8 minutes, but are more expensive and require impact evaluation before widespread implementation. This study will compare a new bedside molecular test with conventional throat cultures to evaluate for benefits to patients and families seen in the emergency department, as well to healthcare system operations. The investigators hypothesize that care for children and the associated healthcare costs will improve with these point of care molecular tests.
Emotional eating is a behaviour that has been linked to weight concerns, mental health concerns, and disordered eating. Effective interventions have been developed to treat emotional eating, however these exist solely in the context of promoting weight loss. Emotional eating is not exclusive to those who struggle with weight and thus interventions are needed that target those who engage in emotional eating regardless of their weight status. The present study aims to do so through the implementation of a one day Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) workshop for emotional eaters.
Women with mood disorders are vulnerable to the negative consequences associated with obesity, and face considerable challenges with adherence to behavioral weight management interventions. Strategies are needed to support the psychological well-being of this population, and improve adherence to weight-related treatment. The goal of this preliminary study is to determine the acceptability of a group-based compassion-focused psychoeducational intervention among women with mood disorders who are attending a behavioral weight management program.
This pilot study uses a randomized controlled trial design to introduce an educational session for breast reconstruction patients. Participants will be randomly assigned to the (1) control group or the (2) experimental group. The control group will receive the current standard educational information from the surgeon along with an information package, while participants in the experimental group will also receive an additional education session before their operation about what to expect during their reconstructive journey. Satisfaction with care, anxiety about the procedure and recovery, and health related quality of life will be measured in all patients using established questionnaires. Additionally, feasibility outcomes will be reported and the results of this study will be used to demonstrate whether a larger version of this study can be successfully completed.
This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of olaparib (MK-7339) monotherapy in participants with multiple types of advanced cancer (unresectable and/or metastatic) that: 1) have progressed or been intolerant to standard of care therapy; and 2) are positive for homologous recombination repair mutation (HRRm) or homologous recombination deficiency (HRD).
