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 primary objective of the study is to determine the safety of single doses of DTX401, including the incidence of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) at each dose level.
This study will investigate the utility of biomarker-based triage for study participants with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) without prior systemic therapy. Study participants within groups defined by a biomarker-based classifier (gene expression profile [GEP] and tumor mutational burden [TMB]) will be randomized to receive pembrolizumab in combination with quavonlimab (MK-1308), favezelimab (MK-4280), or lenvatinib. The primary hypotheses are as follows: In participants receiving pembrolizumab in combination with either quavonlimab, favezelimab, or lenvatinib, the Objective Response Rate (ORR) will be 1) greater than 5% among participants with low GEP and low TMB, 2) greater than 20% among participants with low GEP and high TMB, 3) greater than 20% among participants with high GEP and low TMB, and 4) greater than 45% among participants with high GEP and high TMB.
This study is a non-interventional, observational, prospective, and global participant data registry. The study will collect effectiveness and safety data from approximately 1000 participants with liver cancers treated with TheraSphere® in a real-life setting from multiple centers globally. The absorbed dose to tumor and normal tissue will be calculated using the Simplicit90Y™ software in the subgroup of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) participants.
Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) can be identified as the muscular pain that occurs due to intense use of skeletal muscle through exercise or other activities performed intense enough or long enough to cause minor damage(Cheung et al., 2003). DOMS usually begins to show symptoms 24 hours post-activity, becomes most intense 48-72 hours post-activity and can sometimes last up to 5-10 days in ordinary cases(Cheung et al., 2003; Dutto and Braun 2004). Typical less severe cases still can cause an individual to alter proper movement mechanics - this alteration in mechanics can lead to the further injuring of the involved or compensating skeletal muscle tissues and the associated joints and skeletal structures. DOMS-related muscular pain can lead to functional deficits and altered movement mechanics that can lead to a greater risk of further injury or sources of pain. The body does this by trying to avoid the initial source of pain by adopting some form of compensation (such as a limp when walking) which may help reduce pain at the initial source but lead to another source of pain or risk injury at another joint or limb. DOMS is a common complaint of many runners from novice to expert and due to the increased forces in running, a compensatory pattern in walking is exaggerated in running and can affect the compensating structures to an even greater extent, further increasing the risk of injury. Biofreeze®, a topical analgesic, is used to block the pain signal from the affected structures to the brain when applied to muscles experiencing delayed onset muscle soreness. Blocking the pain signal from DOMS should allow an individual to restore their natural movement mechanics. The purpose of this study is to assess the interaction between Biofreeze® and delayed onset muscle soreness and how it affects movement mechanics and muscle function. Hypothesis: The application of a topical analgesic (Biofreeze®) on muscles experiencing delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) will increase force production and return running biomechanics to pre-DOMS values.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of pemetrexed plus platinum chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) with or without pembrolizumab (MK-3475; KEYTRUDA®) in the treatment of adults with the following types of tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI)-resistant, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mutated, metastatic non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors: 1) TKI-failures (including osimertinib [TAGRISSO®] failure) with T790M-negative mutation tumors, 2) T790M-positive mutation tumors with prior exposure to osimertinib, and 3) first-line osimertinib failure regardless of T790M mutation status. The primary study hypotheses are that the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy has superior efficacy compared to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of: 1) Progression-free Survival (PFS) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors Version 1.1 (RECIST 1.1) based on blinded independent central review, and 2) Overall Survival (OS). This study will be considered to have met its success criteria if the combination of pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy is superior to saline placebo plus chemotherapy in terms of PFS or OS. Upon study completion, participants are discontinued and may be enrolled in a pembrolizumab extension study, if available.
The objectives of this prospective, two-arm, multicenter post-market study is to confirm safety and performance through the incidence of subjects reporting serious adverse device effects (ADEs) up to and including 30 days following use of Signia™ Stapling System with Endo GIA™ with Tri-Staple™ Technology and Tri-Staple™ 2.0 Intelligent Reloads in subjects undergoing indicated abdominal or thoracic procedures for resection, transection and creation of anastomosis per the IFU.
our goal is to study the effects of dopamine activity, using Ritalin ingestion, on neuromuscular function over the course of a progressive heating and cooling protocol developed in our lab. We hypothesize that Ritalin will minimize the previously reported progressive impairment in neuromuscular function with hyperthermia compared to placebo, suggesting that dopamine activity preserves neuromuscular capacity with hyperthermia.
The purpose of this study is to compare the changes in blood lipids and feelings of satiety after consumption of oil-in-water emulsions in which the droplets are in either the liquid or solid (i.e. crystalline) states.
IMCnyeso is a bispecific fusion protein designed for the treatment of cancers that express NY-ESO-1 and/or LAGE-1A. This was a first-in-human trial designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IMCnyeso in HLA-A*02:01-positive adult participants whose cancer is positive for NY-ESO-1 and/or LAGE-A1.
This prospective randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the new Optivista system compared to the iScan for his optical diagnosis and interval agreement monitoring with pathology. The Participants will be randomized to be diagnosed by either Optivista or Pentax iScan, and all polyps detected during the procedure, their size, location and morphology will be recorded according to the Paris classification after which all polyps will be resected per standard practices and sent for histopathologic evaluation. Further optical assessments will be performed for all polyps of 1-10 mm in size (WASP, NICE, SANO and SIMPLE classification) after with an analysis of comparison between optical diagnosis and pathology results will be performed.
