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 trial will examine the effectiveness of a mobile applicable intervention called the "ABCs of SLEEPING". This intervention provides parents with prioritized/customized sleep recommendations and a sleep report based on their responses to the "Sleep check-in". This app is evidence-based and developed by sleep researchers and its aim is to provide accessible evidence-based sleep information for parents of children aged 6 to 12 years of age.
The COVID-19 pandemic exacerbates health problems by reducing access to adapted and advanced physical rehabilitation for several people who need rehabilitation services, including the population with myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1). The PACE tool, an innovative web tool integrating pragmatic physical activity programs, seems to be an interesting and innovative intervention to counter physical deficiencies of people with DM1, which are unfortunately accentuated by the pandemic, while reducing the risk of COVID-19 exposure. Objectives: 1) Evaluate the feasibility, usability and acceptability of the PACE tool in the DM1 population; 2) Evaluate the effects of the intervention on their physical and cognitive health; and 3) Estimate the cost-effectiveness ratio of this intervention. Method: Sixty people (experimental group = 40 and control group = 20) will participate in this randomized intervention study. Participants in the experimental group will be assigned to one of the 35 physical activity programs adapted to their condition of the PACE tool. The program must be performed on a daily basis for a period of 12 weeks. Physical and cognitive health will be assessed before and after the remote intervention via ZOOM, for all participants.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of extended dosing with Eplontersen in participants with hereditary transthyretin-mediated amyloid polyneuropathy (hATTR-PN).
The primary objective is: To evaluate the effect of pozelimab + cemdisiran on daily functioning that is impacted by signs and symptoms in patients with symptomatic generalized myasthenia gravis (gMG) The secondary objectives of the study are: - To evaluate the effect of pozelimab + cemdisiran (ie, combination) and cemdisiran monotherapy on: - Clinician-assessed signs of myasthenia gravis (MG) and muscle strength - Daily functioning that is impacted by signs and symptoms in patients with symptomatic gMG (cemdisiran monotherapy only). - Proportion of patients with improvements in daily function that is impacted by signs and symptoms of MG - Proportion of patients that have improvements in clinician-assessed signs of MG and muscle strength - Health related quality of life - Proportion of patients with minimal MG symptoms - Patient- and clinician-reported signs and symptoms of MG - To evaluate the safety and tolerability of pozelimab + cemdisiran and cemdisiran monotherapy - To assess the concentration of total pozelimab in serum - To assess the concentrations of cemdisiran and its metabolites in plasma - To assess the immunogenicity of pozelimab - To assess the concentration of total C5 in plasma - To assess the immunogenicity of cemdisiran - To study the effect of pozelimab + cemdisiran and cemdisiran monotherapy on complement activation
This is a Phase 2, open-label, multicenter, multiple subcutaneous injection, safety and efficacy study of PF-06835375 in adult participants with primary immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). This study will focus on participants with persistent (>3 months and ≤12 months), or chronic (>12 months) ITP
In the last several decades, many Patient Reported Outcomes Measures (PROMs) have been developed to provide assessment of patient health across multiple domains, as they relate to various spine conditions. However, many of the available PROM surveys have many questions and require substantial time to complete and/or assess one focal domain of health requiring multiple tools to achieve an overall assessment of well-being. Thus, concerns have arisen regarding patient survey fatigue and data integrity. The Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) is a single-question outcome measure that asks patients to rate their function, as it pertains to the area being treated, on a scale of 0 to 100. The SANE score has excellent acceptance in some orthopedic surgery research, where it has been shown responsiveness similar to more comprehensive legacy measures. The SANE thus eliminates survey fatigue and has been validated across a spectrum of orthopedic subspecialties. To our knowledge, however, the SANE has never been studied in a patient population undergoing any type of spinal surgery. Thus, we set out to compare the SANE score in patients undergoing lumbar discectomy to currently utilized PROM scores, including the Oswestry Disability Index (ODI), Zurich Claudication Scale (ZCS), and short form-36 (SF-36).
The objective of this study is to investigate whether percutaneous PFO closure with the Occlutech Flex II PFO Occluder is non-inferior to the AMPLATZERâ„¢ PFO Occluder and Gore® Cardioform Septal Occluder in closure of the PFO, prevention of recurrent embolic stroke, and device/procedure related Serious Adverse Events (SAE).
In North America, colorectal cancer patients with resectable liver-restricted metastases (mCRC-LR) are treated with approximately 6 months of preoperative systemic multi-agent chemotherapy. Actuarial data however supports that approximately 20% of mCRC-LR patients can be cured without as much systemic chemotherapy. Prospective phase II-III trials also support that awaiting recurrence to initiate further metastases-targeted or systemic treatment may provide patients with longer overall survival while avoiding toxicities in those without recurrence.
This is a study evaluating the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy of MK-1084 alone, and MK-1084 plus other combination therapies in participants with advanced solid tumors with identified kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog G12C (KRAS G12C) mutation.
Syncope (fainting) is a common reason for emergency department (ED) presentation. Fainting can be caused by heart conditions such as irregular heart rhythm (arrhythmia) that can be life-threatening, structural heart problems, or serious conditions not related to the heart. The standard or usual treatment for the majority of patients at-risk for irregular heart rhythm is getting discharged home with no heart rhythm monitoring. If patients receive any monitoring, only Holter monitoring device that records all heart beats for 24 hours to 72 hours will be used. One-third to half of irregular heart rhythm will be identified only after patients are either discharged from the ED or hospitalized in an inpatient unit. One-third to half of irregular heart rhythm will be identified only after patients are either discharged from the ED or hospitalized in an inpatient unit. The study hypothesize that prolonged live cardiac rhythm monitoring (15 days) of at-risk syncope patients, discharged from the ED, will lead to identification of irregular heart rhythm, which can lead to improved patient safety and lower healthcare costs.
