Liquid Biopsy Evaluation and Repository Development at Princess Margaret
The objective of this protocol is to develop an institution-wide liquid biopsy protocol that will establish a common process for collecting blood and corresponding archived tumor specimens for future research studies at the University Health Network's Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. Circulating cell-free nucleic acids (cfNA), including cell-free DNA (cfDNA) and …
cfDNA Assay Prospective Observational Validation for Early Cancer Detection and Minimal Residual Disease
This is an observational case-control study to train and validate a genome-wide methylome enrichment platform to detect multiple cancer types and to differentiate amongst cancer types. The cancers included in this study are brain, breast, bladder, cervical, colorectal, endometrial, esophageal, gastric, head and neck, hepatobiliary, leukemia, lung, lymphoma, multiple myeloma, …
Integrated Cancer Repository for Cancer Research
The iCaRe2 is a multi-institutional resource created and maintained by the Fred & Pamela Buffett Cancer Center to collect and manage standardized, multi-dimensional, longitudinal data and biospecimens on consented adult cancer patients, high-risk individuals, and normal controls. The distinct characteristic of the iCaRe2 is its geographical coverage, with a significant …
New Advanced Vascular Imaging Ultrasound Protocols
This is a single-center observational study aimed at setting up and testing new ultrasound vascular imaging protocols, conducted exclusively for research purposes. The study will perform US examinations in 60 subjects. The subjects enrolled in the study will be examined the first time and will then provide consent to be …
Kidney Function and Risk Factors in Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC) Undergoing 177Lutetium-PSMA Radioligand Therapy: a Prospective Observational Study - KiRi-Trial
The goal of this observational study is to determine the impact of 177Lutetium-Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA) Radioligand Therapy (177Lu-PSMA-RLT) on kidney function over time. The main question it aims to answer is: What is the absolute decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) in patients undergoing 177Lu-PSMA-RLT after 12 …
Impact of Antiglycemic & Immunosuppressive Therapies on NETosis in Diabetes & Kidney Disease (NETs - Neutrophil Traps)
This study aims to investigate whether new glucose-lowering medications, such as SGLT2 inhibitors (e.g., Forxiga/Jardiance) and GLP-1 receptor agonists (e.g., Ozempic), can reduce NETosis in diabetic patients, thereby mitigating secondary complications such as cardiovascular disease and kidney damage. By targeting dysregulated NET formation, the study seeks to establish a link …
Donor Outcomes Following Hand-Assisted and Robotic Living Donor Nephrectomy: a Retrospective Review
1.1. Background: Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice for eligible patients with end-stage renal disease. It provides better outcomes in terms of life expectancy and quality of life than dialysis (Liu, Narins, Maley, Frank, & Lallas, 2012). Kidney transplants from living donors also have additional benefits in terms of …
