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 randomized phase II placebo controlled clinical trial. Active arm: Allogeneic Wharton's jelly derived MSCs (WJ-MSCs). Both groups will receive standard of care treatment for COVID (e.g. dexamethasone)
The primary objective of the study is to determine the proportion of patients with elevated triglycerides (TG), without familial chylomicronemia syndrome (FCS) due to loss of function (LoF) mutations in lipoprotein lipase (LPL), and a history of hypertriglyceridemia (HTG)-associated acute pancreatitis (AP) who experience a recurrent episode of AP after treatment with evinacumab versus placebo. The secondary objectives of the study are: - To determine the change in the standard lipid profile after therapy with evinacumab versus placebo - To determine the changes in specialty lipoprotein parameters (ApoC3, ApoB48, ApoB100, and nuclear magnetic resonance [NMR] lipid profile) after therapy with evinacumab versus placebo - To measure the number of AP episodes per patient - To assess the safety and tolerability of evinacumab - To assess the potential immunogenicity of evinacumab - To assess the concentrations of total evinacumab and total angiopoietin-like 3 (ANGPTL3)
Heart failure is a growing epidemic that affects up to 500,000 individuals in Canada, with 50,000 new cases being diagnosed each year. Half of these will have HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). HFpEF has been associated with high rates of morbidity, mortality, and health care expenditures. Its pathophysiology remains poorly understood, and positive medication trial results to date have been rare. Inflammation is strongly associated with a profibrotic activation in HFpEF, which is in turn associated with the severity and prognosis of the disease. Colchicine is a potent anti-inflammatory drug which properties relate to the suppression of tubulin polymerization and inflammasome inhibition, thus reducing the production of IL-1β and IL-18. The investigators thus propose a pilot study of 6 months follow-up duration that will test the efficacy and safety of 2 dosing regimens of colchicine (vs. placebo) in patients with HFpEF.
This is a double-blind, placebo-controlled and open-label, multicenter efficacy and long-term safety study of firibastat (QGC001) 1000 mg (2×500 mg tablets) administered po, QD, for up to 48 weeks in patients with difficult-to-treat/treatment-resistant HTN. Subjects will continue to take their chronic antihypertensive therapies (at least 2 classes of antihypertensive therapies) at the MTDs during the Run in Period and for the duration of the study. For treatment-resistant subjects, one of the antihypertensive therapies must be a diuretic; for difficult-to-treat subjects, the antihypertensive therapies do not have to include a diuretic. Subjects will complete subject medication diaries during the Run-in Period. If systolic automated office BP (AOBP) is ≥180 mmHg or diastolic BP (DBP) ≥110 mmHg at any visit during the study (and repeated and confirmed within 30 min), the subject will be withdrawn from the study and will receive appropriate treatment.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the efficacy of TEV-53275 administered subcutaneously (sc) in adult participants with persistent asthma and an eosinophilic phenotype compared to placebo. A secondary objective is to evaluate the efficacy of TEV-53275 compared to placebo assessed by lung function, asthma symptoms, rescue medication use, and quality of life measures. Another secondary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of TEV-53275 administered sc in adult participants with persistent asthma and an eosinophilic phenotype compared with placebo, and lastly, to evaluate the immunogenicity of TEV-53275 administered sc in adult participants with persistent asthma and an eosinophilic phenotype.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of Sodium Zirconium Cyclosilicate (SZC) on arrhythmia-related cardiovascular outcomes in participants on chronic hemodialysis with recurrent hyperkalemia.
In this study, adults with Fabry Disease who have not had any treatment for this condition will be treated with Replagal. The main aim of the study is to check if Replagal improves kidney function and heart structure of participants with Fabry Disease. Participants will receive one Replagal infusion every other week for up to 104 weeks. They will visit the clinic every 12 to 14 weeks during treatment with a follow-up visit 2 weeks after treatment.
This is a multicenter, multinational long-term follow-up study to assess the long-term safety and durability of effect of AVR-RD-02 treatment in subjects who previously received AVR-RD-02 treatment (single dose administration).
Adults with narcolepsy who have completed the TAK-994-1501 study will be able to take part in this study. The main aim of this study is to check if participants have side effects from TAK-994. Participants will take one of 3 different TAK-994 dose for 8 weeks. Then, half the participants will continue with their dose of TAK-994 and half will take a placebo. In this study, a placebo will look like a TAK-994 tablet but will not have any medicine in it. Participants will take TAK-994 or placebo for 4 weeks. Participants will visit the clinic for a final check-up 2 weeks after their last dose of TAK-994 or placebo. The study doctors will check for side effects from TAK-994 and placebo throughout the study. Participants will continue to record any narcolepsy symptoms as they did in Part B of the TAK 994-1501 study.
The purpose of this study is to determine if vebicorvir (VBR, ABI-H0731) in combination with AB-729 is safe and effective in participants with chronic hepatitis B infection (cHBV) receiving a standard of care nucleos(t)ide/reverse transcriptase inhibitor (SOC NrtI).
