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 study is a proof-of-concept study to demonstrate if a daily dose of a 2-days pre-treatment of Fexofenadine 180mg is effective in alleviating the AR symptoms and to assess the additional benefit to the patient in terms of preventing Allergic Rhinitis (AR) symptoms. The total study duration per participant is expected at least 4 months, depending on the timing of the screening visit. 5 visits are planned, screening, confirmation inclusion challenge, randomization visit, challenge and end of study visit.
The primary aim of this study is to evaluate whether a CBT group designed to target IU (CBT-IU) in pregnant women with heightened levels of IU, prevents postpartum anxiety. The investigators hypothesize that women with clinically significant IU during pregnancy will exhibit both significant reductions in IU, as well as a decrease in anxiety symptoms postpartum, compared to a treatment as usual control group. The secondary aim of this study is to evaluate whether CBT-IU significantly improves and/or prevents depression symptoms, worry symptom severity, and difficulties with emotion regulation. The investigators hypothesize that CBT-IU will lead to significant improvements in symptom severity compared to the treatment as usual control group.
This study is an observational cohort study to measure the impact of express testing and same-day initiation of Pre-Exposure Prophylaxis (PrEP) on outcomes related to the PrEP cascade. The investigators expect that same day initiation for PrEP will improve PrEP uptake. The investigators hypothesize that baseline HIV test positivity will be higher than that of general testing for gbMSM in Ontario. This is a key indicator to determine whether this targeted approach is able to access the highest risk population.
The goal of this quality improvement (QI) study is to develop automated clinical pipelines to implement machine learning models in the care pathway of lung cancer patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: - Can model-prompted risk classifications be incorporated into clinician workflows to enable informed clinical decision-making? - What are clinicians' perceptions of the information from model outputs, and do they change their decision about data already available to them as a result of the model-prompted risk classification (i.e., to re-review or further assess patients identified by the models as being higher risk)? Participating radiation oncologists will receive the risk prediction from the model and be asked to complete a survey to give feedback on how they used the prediction in their decision-making.
The goal of this study is to test the impact of a virtual heart failure optimization program on uptake of guideline directed medical therapy, participation in cardiac rehabilitation & impact on echocardiographic parameters.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind placebo-controlled, parallel group study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of VTX958 in participants with moderately to severely active Crohn's Disease.
Peritoneal disease at initial presentation for patients with gastric adenocarcinoma (GA) is frequent, with 15-31% of patients presenting with peritoneal metastases (PM) at surgical exploration. The prognosis of patients with PM is poor, overall survival (OS) ranging from 8 to 13 months, reinforcing the importance of optimal patient selection before surgical management of GA. Indocyanine Green (ICG) fluorescence imaging for intraoperative detection of PM has been described in recent literature as a useful tool in patients undergoing cytoreductive surgery (CRS) with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) for peritoneal malignancies to increase the detection of PM during surgery. However, the role of ICG for patients with GA, and its role during diagnosic laparoscopy (DL), remain unknown.
This is a Phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter, global study to compare the efficacy and safety of Datopotamab Deruxtecan (Dato-DXd) in combination with durvalumab and carboplatin compared with pembrolizumab in combination with histology-specific platinum-based chemotherapy as first-line treatment of adults with stage IIIB, IIIC, or IV NSCLC without actionable genomic alterations (including sensitizing EGFR mutations, and ALK and ROS1 rearrangements).
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of sunitinib malate in combination with lutetium Lu 177 dotatate in treating patients with pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors. Sunitinib malate is in a class of medications called kinase inhibitors and a form of targeted therapy that blocks the action of abnormal proteins called VEGFRs that signal tumor cells to multiply. This helps stop or slow the spread of tumor cells. Radioactive drugs, such as lutetium Lu 177 dotatate, may carry radiation directly to tumor cells and not harm normal cells. It is also a form of targeted therapy because it works by attaching itself to specific molecules (receptors) on the surface of tumor cells, known as somatostatin receptors, so that radiation can be delivered directly to the tumor cells and kill them. Giving sunitinib malate and lutetium Lu 177 dotatate in combination may be safer and more effective in treating pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors than giving either drug alone.
This cross-sectional prospective study will assess the potential association of more severe sleep apnea after spinal cord injury with more intense neuropathic pain, more severe spasticity, and more significant cardiovascular abnormalities including cardiac arrhythmias and blood pressure fluctuations. In addition, the participants' experience when undergoing home-based sleep screening test or hospital-unattended sleep screening test will be assessed in a semi-structured interview.
