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.
RENOIR Study: This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of Rosnilimab in subjects with moderate to severe Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA)
The goal of this clinical trial is to compare different doses of AURN001 in patients with corneal edema secondary to corneal endothelial dysfunction. The main questions the clinical trial aims to answer are whether AURN001 effective and safe. Participants will receive a single injection of AURN001. A comparison between low, medium, and high doses of AURN001 against the contribution of each element, cells alone and Y27632 alone, will be conducted to determine the effects on corneal edema.
The goal of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of psilocybin on synaptic vesicular density (SVD) as measured by the positron emission tomography (PET) radiotracer, 18F-SynVesT-1, in participants with amnestic Mild Cognitive Impairment (aMCI) and healthy participants. The investigators hypothesize that SVD levels in the brain will be higher following the ingestion of psilocybin in comparison to placebo, and that increases in SVD will be associated with improvements in cognition. 60 participants (30 with aMCI, and 30 sex and age matched healthy volunteers) will: - Be randomized to receive either: 1. Two 25 mg macrodoses of psilocybin separated by 1 week. 2. Two placebo doses separated by 1 week. - Receive a baseline 18F-SynVesT-1 PET scan, clinical, and neuropsychological assessments. - Receive a 18F-SynVesT-1 PET scan one week after the last dose of treatment. - Receive a third PET scan at any time within 4 weeks of the screening visit to quantify tauopathy with the [18F]T807 radiotracer. - Receive clinical and neuropsychological testing 1, 4, and 12 weeks after the last treatment. Researchers will compare placebo vs. experimental groups to see if psilocybin will increase SVD, and if increases in SVD are associated with cognitive improvements.
This study investigates whether dairy products will positively impact loading exercise-induced bone turnover and bone cell activity and/or the post-exercise inflammatory response in healthy young adults compared to a carbohydrate drink and/or water.
Sport is a physical activity that has many physical, psychological and social benefits for those with spinal cord injury (SCI). However, most sport research involves people with SCI who are <50 years old. This is a problem because many people are >50 years old when first injured. Moreover, people with a SCI are now living longer lives, meaning they also experience more health challenges. Unfortunately, there is limited research studying the impact of sport for adults with SCI aged ≥50 years old.
A virtual, self-directed, and tailored early mobilization program called JUMPSTART, that aims to bridge cardiac rehabilitation intake for post-TAVR patients has been developed at the Hamilton General Hospital. The program includes a series of exercise videos at varying levels of intensity, designed for patients to follow at home, post-discharge. JUMPSTART is currently being offered as part of clinical care. In this new pilot study, the study team plans to develop and test new strategies to optimize recruitment and participation, develop additional JUMPSTART materials and evaluate outcomes through follow-up surveys and registry/administrative data at Hamilton General Hospital.
The purpose of this Phase III study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tozorakimab administered subcutaneously (SC) in adult participants with symptomatic COPD with a history of ≥ 2 moderate or ≥ 1 severe exacerbations of COPD in the 12 months prior to enrolment. Participants should be receiving optimised treatment with inhaled maintenance therapy (ICS/LABA/LAMA triple therapy, or dual therapy if triple is not considered appropriate) throughout at least the last 3 months prior to enrolment.
Background: Previous publications have highlighted limited data on patient outcomes and experiences at Shouldice Hospital. Existing studies from Europe reported outcomes following Shouldice repair but lacked recent data. The current project seeks to optimize patient care and knowledge through systematic follow-up. Study Objectives: Establish a patient-reported outcome measure follow-up program. Evaluate postoperative complication rates. Determine important outcomes to patients. Establish and monitor patient satisfaction with decision-making and hernia repair. Hypotheses/Research Questions: Several research questions related to patient motivations, outcomes, knowledge, and satisfaction are posed for investigation. Potential Risks and Benefits: No anticipated risks to participants. Participants won't directly benefit but contribute to improving patient care and knowledge. Study Design: The study employs a prospective follow-up approach. Surveys are sent at specific intervals (30-40 days, 1-year, 3-years, and 5-years) via email. Consent forms are included in the email, allowing participants to choose their level of involvement. Data is collected from survey responses, patient charts, and operative notes. Study Population: All patients aged 16-90 who underwent hernia surgery at Shouldice Hospital are eligible. Exclusion criteria: Lack of an email address. The required sample size is unknown, and this study serves as a pilot. Data Collection: Data is collected from surveys, patient charts, and operative notes. Consent is obtained through deferred consent (initial contact via email, with consent forms provided). Safeguards are in place to protect personal health information. Duration of Study: Estimated to take 5-6 years. Recruitment/enrollment: 6-12 months. Follow-up: 5 years from the last enrolled participant. Data analysis and write-up: 5 months. Overlap with Other Projects: Concerns about overlap with other studies are addressed, and concurrent participation is allowed. Participants can withdraw at any time. In summary, this research project aims to gather comprehensive data on hernia surgery outcomes, patient experiences, and satisfaction at Shouldice Hospital through a systematic follow-up approach, contributing to the improvement of patient care and knowledge in this field.
