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.
The study is being done to see if ziltivekimab can be used to treat participants living with heart failure and inflammation. Participants will either get ziltivekimab (active medicine) or placebo (inactive substance that looks like the study medicine but does not contain any medicine). The treatment participants get is decided by chance. Participant's chance of getting ziltivekimab or placebo is the same. Ziltivekimab is not yet approved in any country or region in the world. It is a new medicine that doctors cannot prescribe. The study is expected to last for up to 1 year and 4 months.
To assess the bioequivalence of lamotrigine from Lamotrigin Desitin 100 mg tablets and Lamictal 100 mg Tablet.
This study is being done to learn about etavopivat, a once a day medicine taken by mouth in adolescents with sickle cell disease. The main goals are to study safety and how long etavopivat stays in the bloodstream, while also studying if there are benefits from taking etavopivat. Eligible participants who enter the study will start a 96-week treatment period. At the end of the 96 weeks, participants will have an end of study visit that occurs 4 weeks later. The participants will receive etavopivat every day throughout the treatment period.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of verekitug (UPB-101) in participants with severe asthma. The study will evaluate the incidence of asthma exacerbations, other pharmacodynamic (PD) parameters such as lung function and asthma control, and the safety and tolerability of verekitug (UPB-101) compared to placebo.
This is a single-center, prospective, physiological study. The study will enroll the traumatic lung injury patient who has at least 2 rib fractures requiring mechanical ventilation being on partially assisted breathing mode and on activity as tolerated (AAT) order with or without C-collar. Once being confirmed to meet the inclusion criteria, the research team will apply the EIT on the patient and start recording as well as perform lung ultrasound in the specific areas of interest in the selected time points of the study. The MV ventilator setting and some vital sign data will be also collected at selected time points of study. The EIT will continuously record from 5 minutes when patient is on supine position, then the investigators will turn patient using positioning wedge pillow to the sides with 30-minute EIT recording each side, lastly, the investigators will turn patient back to supine and continuously record for 30 minutes. The study will use the same protocol to perform in 3 different settings of mechanical ventilation (weaning process) i.) during partially assisted breathing, ii.) during high setting of spontaneous breathing and iii.) during low setting of spontaneous breathing.
This single arm clinical trial will assess whether continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among para-athletes living with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) is effective in improving cognitive impairment, in reducing fatigue, depression, anxiety, and overall quality of life. Further, the study will evaluate the effectiveness of CPAP therapy in improving their performance in sports and the perceived risk of injuries.
This observational study will use a new way to test for deep vein thrombosis (DVT) of the leg. A DVT is a blood clot in the leg and is a medical problem that can cause swelling, pain, and redness. If the blood clot is not treated, it can cause more serious, long-term effects, and occasionally lead to death. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. How safe is our new blood clot testing method? 2. How efficient is our new blood clot testing method? The study will be run in the emergency department and urgent care centre in Kingston, Ontario. Patients who are tested for a DVT in the leg can be included in the study. Researchers follow the patient through chart review to make sure the new system is safe and efficient.
By 2040, 25% of Canadians will have osteoarthritis, a disabling joint condition. Most people think osteoarthritis only affects older adults, but 50% of the 700,000 Canadian youth who hurt their knee playing sports annually will develop osteoarthritis by 40 years of age. These young people with old knees face knee pain and disability for much of their adult lives, interfering with parenting, work, and recreation. Yet, most do not know about osteoarthritis or how to reduce their risk. In this clinical trial, people who have torn the Anterior Cruciate ligament in their knee and had reconstruction surgery 9-36 months previously will be randomized to receive either a 6-month virtual education and exercise therapy program called Stop OsteoARthritis (SOAR) or a minimal intervention control program. Researchers will test if those who received the SOAR program have larger gains in knee health, including pain, symptoms, function, and quality of life at 6, 12, and 24 months. Researchers will also use MRIs (baseline and 24 months) to assess how the SOAR program influences knee cartilage degeneration and its cost-effectiveness.
This is a single center, 2-Part, Phase 1, open-label, fixed-sequence, drug-drug interaction study designed to compare the PK of ecopipam when administered alone and in combination with itraconazole (Part 1) or rifampicin (Part 2) in healthy subjects.
This study aims to investigate how sepsis and shock can impair microcirculation in intensive care unit (ICU) patients, which can lead to long-lasting muscle weakness/dysfunction or ICU-Acquired Weakness (ICU-AW) and exercise limitations.
