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 an open label, multicenter, phase 1/2 study to assess the safety/tolerability and preliminary clinical activity of STAR0602 as a single agent administered intravenously in participants with advanced solid tumors that are antigen-rich.
This study will collect real-world clinical and patient reported outcomes (PRO) and diary data from eligible patients with documented Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2+) [globally] or HER2-low [North America only] in routine clinical practice.
This is a multi-centre, prospective cohort study to determine if asymptomatic PFO is a risk factor for developing perioperative overt and covert stroke in patients undergoing non-cardiac surgery.
The main purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of LY3540378 in adults with worsening heart failure with preserved ejection fraction
Loss of control eating (LOC-E) in youth predicts the later development of full syndrome eating disorders, such as binge-eating disorder (BED), and therefore, could be a relevant target for prevention interventions. Children with attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are at higher risk of experiencing LOC-E than healthy controls, and there is evidence that related neurocognitive predisposing factors, such as impulsivity and dysfunctional reward processing, are associated with the pathogenesis of LOC-E. Therefore, it is pertinent to examine whether modifying these neurocognitive symptoms influences LOC-E and the subsequent development of eating disorders. Stimulants are an efficacious treatment for impulsivity in youth with ADHD and have been shown to improve symptoms of binge eating in adults; however, studies have not prospectively explored the effect of stimulants on LOC-E in youth. To explore this gap, the investigators aim to collect prospective observational data in a clinical setting to measure change in LOC-E episodes and secondary outcomes in youth aged 8 to 13 years old with ADHD and LOC-E who are treated with stimulants. The investigators will collect outcome measures prior to stimulant initiation (baseline) and 3 months after stimulant initiation.
A Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled parallel-group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of daxdilimab in participants with moderate-to-severe active primary Discoid Lupus Erythematosus (DLE) refractory to standard of care.
The investigators recently evaluated 4 different oximeters among the most commonly used with arterial catheter in place and compared SpO2 with SaO2 obtained on arterial gas. Correlations between SaO2 and SpO2 were poor for all oximeters, as previously known, and SpO2-SaO2 bias were different between oximeters. Some oximeters (Masimo, Nellcor) had lower biases but they detected less well hypoxemia. Some oximeters underestimated SaO2 (Nonin) but detected very well hypoxemia, and some overestimated SaO2 (Philips). The investigators concluded that oximeters provide different informations to clinicians, and oxygenation targets should take into account for these differences. The assumption is that the SpO2 target AND oximeter used will both have an impact on oxygen flows and that these effects will add up. With a high SpO2 target, oxygen flows will be significantly greater and with the Nonin oximeter, the required flows will be greater than with the Philips oximeter. NB: the results obtained were in a population with light skin pigmentation (96% of the patients were Fitzpatrick 1-2, reflecting the local hospitalized population).
Premature babies often require breathing support during their neonatal intensive care unit stay. This is because their lungs are not fully developed to perform the work of breathing on their own. Although breathing support can be provided via a breathing tube, it is preferable to provide breathing support non-invasively from a breathing machine which is then connected to a mask or prongs placed on the baby's nose. In premature babies born under 32 weeks gestation, a commonly used mode of non-invasive breathing support is called Non-Invasive Positive Pressure Ventilation (NIPPV). In this mode, the breathing machine provides 2 levels of support: one is the constant distending pressure to keep the lungs open and the other provides additional 'breaths' on top of that distending pressure. This is to mimic regular breathing. These breaths are set at a fixed rate and pressure. Although NIPPV protects the lungs from injury caused by a breathing tube, the breaths are not in sync with the baby's own breathing effort. Another mode of non-invasive breathing support recently being used in premature infants called Neurally Adjusted Ventilatory Assist (NAVA). When NAVA is provided non-invasively using a mask or prongs similar to NIPPV, it is called Non-invasive NAVA (NIV-NAVA). During NIV-NAVA a special feeding tube is used that detects the baby's own breathing movement from the electrical signal of the baby's diaphragm and feeds back to the machine which then provides a 'top-up' to the baby's own breath. This top-up breath also provides only as much pressure as the baby needs on top on their own breathing effort. Therefore, this is thought to be in sync with the baby's own breathing effort. However, it is not known if this mode of ventilation leads to improved sleep, improved brain oxygen levels, reduced discomfort and improved functioning of the diaphragm. The investigators aim to examine these indices in this research project.
This is an international, multicenter study with two components: Registry - A standardized genetic screening and a prospective, standardized, cross-sectional clinical data collection - Enrollment is open to all genes on the RD Rare Gene List Natural History Study - A prospective, standardized, longitudinal Natural History Study - Enrollment opens gene-by-gene, based on funding and within-gene Registry enrollment The study objectives are as follows. Registry Objectives 1. Genotype Characterization 2. Cross-Sectional Phenotype Characterization (within gene) 3. Establish a Link to My Retina Tracker Registry (MRTR) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes Natural History Study Objectives 1. Natural History (within gene) 2. Structure-Function Relationship (within gene) 3. Risk Factors for Progression (within gene) 4. Ancillary Exploratory Studies - Pooling of Genes
This is a single institutional registry-based, prospective, observational study to describe radiation oncologists' decision making during evaluation of patients and to compare real-world outcomes of SBRT vs CRT. A registry-based trial involves observing the effect of something without manipulating it.
