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 24 week study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of budesonide and formoterol fumarate metered dose inhaler in adults and adolescents with inadequately controlled asthma.
One of the most challenging issues in modern medicine is the current opioid epidemic. Given the association between opioid use after surgery and the development of opioid addiction, an essential goal of the medical community should be to develop strategies aimed at instructing the safe use of opioids. In addition, instructions on how to use non-opioid painkillers and exercises and techniques to better cope with pain can be used to reduce the patients opioid requirements after surgery. This study aims to evaluate the effect of providing an online educational video presentation to patients prior to surgery. This will be a 30 minute video which will provide the study participants with instructions on how best to use their opioid and non-opioid medication for pain and also teach the study participants exercises and techniques to better cope with their pain. This intervention will be used with a view to reduce the amount of opioids used by patients following hip or knee replacement surgery. Participants will be followed during their immediate phase after surgery to determine how much pain killers the participants have used and at six weeks the participants will be asked to return their unused opioids to see how much the participants have used in total.
The investigators will conduct a double-blind, placebo-controlled, repeated measures study of the effects of oral creatine monohydrate supplementation on motor skill acquisition and neurophysiology in young healthy adults. After baseline testing, participants will be randomized to receive creatine supplementation or placebo for seven days. Participants will then complete three days of training on a motor skill task while consuming a maintenance dosage of creatine or placebo. TMS measures of neurophysiology will be assessed at baseline, and pre- and post-skill training on the first and third training days.
Phase 3, randomized, multicentre study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of dostarlimab versus carboplatin-paclitaxel in patients with MMR deficient relapse or advanced endometrial cancer.
To document the clinical outcome of Rezūm therapy for BPH patient in Canadian cohort.
This observational study intends to investigate health trends and data in cystic fibrosis patients all across Canada that are receiving modulator treatment so researchers can determine if CFTR treatments are effective over a long period of time and if so, which treatments work best for each individual. The study will collect clinical data from routine standard of care, patient reported outcomes via survey data and samples for a biobank.
The objectives of the study are to evaluate a 4-week mixed training paradigm consisting of explosive strength training and balance perturbation training efficacy on balance control during standing and locomotion, and to understand the mechanisms of neuroplasticity that would improve sensorimotor integration at supraspinal and spinal levels.
In this study, we will use the SpotLight-19 device in patients presenting to a coronavirus disease (COVID-19) Assessment Centre for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) testing. Consenting patients will undergo a Spotlight-19 scan. We will link the scan to PCR results, age, vaccination status, and COVID-19 symptoms in order to calibrate the SpotLight-19 prediction algorithm of a state of COVID-19 infection.
This study will investigate the feasibility of using repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) and a sensorimotor training task to treat symptoms of pain in patients with complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS). rTMS is a non-invasive technique that involves delivering magnetic pulses in rapid succession over the area of the brain that controls movement. The sensorimotor training task involves non-invasive nerve stimulation used to cue a participant to complete motor actions. The purpose of this study is to determine whether recruitment is feasible in this patient population and patients maintain adherence to the intervention. In addition, the investigators want to determine whether rTMS combined with sensorimotor training is an effective intervention to alleviate symptoms of pain in patients with CRPS.
The objective of this study is to determine whether VR can ameliorate symptoms for palliative care patients within a hospice setting. We also aim to verify the efficacy with a larger sample size than previously shown, as well as extend the population to include non-cancer patients receiving Hospice care. We will further attempt to delineate whether there is a sustainability of symptomatic improvement one week after VR experiences.
