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.
Phase II Multicentre, pilot, parallel-group, blinded, 1:1 randomized controlled trial to determine the feasibility of conducting a larger definitive trail of using vitamin C to reduce persistent pain in patients undergoing total knee arthroplasty surgery.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and exposure-response (E-R) of BMS-986435/MYK-224 in participants with symptomatic Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction (HFpEF).
The purpose of this study is to establish a safe and tolerable dose of BMS-986393 in combinations with alnuctamab, mezigdomide, and iberdomide in participants with relapsed and/or refractory multiple myeloma (RRMM).
Green coffee extract (GCE) supplementation has been shown to induce favourable health benefits on glucose metabolism and weight management. Previous literature suggests that the benefits of GCE are due to the high bioavailability of chlorogenic acid (CGA) which is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties but is destroyed during the bean roasting process used to make coffee in Western societies. Whilst some studies examining chronic and high dose GCE supplementation (4-12 weeks) report beneficial effects on glucose metabolism and reductions in body mass following supplementation, comparably less is known about the effect of acute (single dose) GCE supplementation. Another natural compound, alpha-lipoic acid (ALA) has antioxidant properties and may also benefit glucose metabolism. The purpose of the current study is to determine the impact of acute supplementation of GCE with ALA on postprandial blood glucose concentration following consumption of a carbohydrate drink in healthy adults. A secondary objective is to evaluate the effect of GCE+ALA on blood insulin concentrations, insulin sensitivity, glucose oxidation, and perceptions of appetite.
Background and Rationale: Suicide is the second leading cause of death in Canadian Emerging Adults (EAs; 18-24yrs). Current treatments for suicidal thoughts and behaviors are limited and novel treatments are required to save lives. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive neurostimulation treatment for major depressive disorder, a mental health condition at high risk for suicide. It is well tolerated and effective. However, in the child and youth population, it does not appear to be superior to sham-TMS. Therefore, strategies for enhancing TMS outcomes are required. Over time, TMS can change the function of brain regions important in depression to reduce the symptoms of depression, including suicidal ideation. The investigators believe this occurs through a process called 'synaptic plasticity', or the process by which neurons change their connectivity with other neurons in an activity-dependent manner. Using an adjunct to facilitate these changes in the EA population may improve TMS outcomes, including its effect on suicidal ideation. The investigators' previous data indicates that, in adults, the effects of a TMS protocol called intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) can be enhanced by pairing stimulation with a medication called D-Cycloserine. This FDA-approved medication leads to enhanced synaptic plasticity with iTBS. In adults, this combination led to greater improvements in depression symptoms, with a notable rapid resolution of suicidal thoughts as well as improvements on a computerized test that is associated with future suicidal behavior. Research Question and Objectives: To conduct a 2-week double-blind placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial where 60 participants will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: 1) accelerated iTBS+D-Cycloserine, and 2) accelerated iTBS+placebo. Participants will receive a weight-based dose of D-Cycloserine or placebo as an adjunct to iTBS (25mg/17.5kg of body weight).
The intention of the study is to demonstrate superiority of Saruparib (AZD5305) + physician's choice NHA relative to placebo + physician's choice NHA by assessment of radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in participants with mCSPC.
The purpose of this study is to assess if adding LY3537982 in combination with standard of care anti-cancer drugs is more effective than standard of care in participants with untreated advanced NSCLC. NSCLC must have a change in a gene called KRAS G12C. Study participation, including follow-up, could last up to 3 years, depending on how you and your lung cancer are doing.
Laboratory test overuse occurs when tests are ordered repetitively, without due consideration of impact on clinical status. Repetitive inpatient lab testing often provides limited value for patient outcomes while increasing healthcare costs, patient discomfort, and unnecessary transfusions and prolonging hospitalizations. The research study aims to reduce laboratory test overuse in hospitals through implementation of a comprehensive, multi-disciplinary, and multi-faceted intervention bundle that includes audit and feedback reports, clinician education, clinical decision support tool, and patient infographics across 14 hospitals in Alberta.
This is a parallel, Phase 2, 2-arm, double-blind, randomized, multicenter, multinational, placebo-controlled study to evaluate efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and biological effects of treatment of subcutaneous injection of amlitelimab compared with placebo in male and female participants aged 18 to 70 years with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). The purpose of this study is to measure standardized clinician reported and participant-reported outcomes (ClinRO and PRO), safety, and drug concentration. An optional long-term extension (LTE) period will assess chronic safety and efficacy over an additional 80 weeks of amlitelimab treatment. Study details include: - The study duration will be up to 116 weeks, including a 4-week Screening period, a 16-week double-blind treatment period (DBT), an optional 80-week LTE period and a 16-week post-treatment follow-up period. - All participants who complete the 16-week DBT period will be offered entry into an optional LTE. - Participants who do not wish to enter the optional LTE period or who stop treatment prior to Week 16 (Visit 6) or stop investigational medicinal product (IMP) administration prior to completing the LTE period will proceed into the 16-week post-treatment follow-up period. - The number of planned in clinic visits will be up to six during the DBT period with an additional nine during the LTE period, plus one post-treatment follow-up end-of-study visit. Up to 11 optional in clinic visits are allowed for participants who do not wish to self-administer IMP between scheduled in clinic visits during the LTE period.
The goal of this pilot study is to improve ovarian reserve markers in patients with premature ovarian insufficiency. The main question it aims to answer is: - Will treatment with G-CSF allow improvement in markers of ovarian reserve?
