Cemiplimab for the Treatment of Locally Advanced Head and Neck Basal Cell Carcinoma Before Surgery
This phase II trial tests how well cemiplimab works in treating basal cell carcinoma of the head and neck that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) before surgery (neoadjuvant). Cemiplimab is a human recombinant monoclonal IgG4 antibody that may allow the body's immune system to work …
Use of Beetroot Juice to Protect Against Postoperative Ileus Following Colorectal Surgery: BEET IT Study
The goal of the BEET IT study is to examine if preoperative intake of beetroot juice can ameliorate gastrointestinal (GI) recovery after colorectal surgery and thereby help to reduce the duration of postoperative ileus (POI) and prevent prolonged POI. Adult patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal surgery are randomized 1:1 to consume …
Cone-beam CT Guided Microcoil Localization of Pulmonary Nodules During Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery(VATS)
The Guided Therapeutics (GTx) program at the University Health Network is a network of clinicians, scientists, and engineers focused on the development and translation of image-guided technologies focused on minimally-invasive, adaptive therapies. Technologies developed within the GTx program include a portable intra-operative cone-beam CT (in collaboration with Siemens) that has …
A Study to Compare Two Different Managements After Ankle Surgery: Immediate and Delayed Weight-bearing.
The investigators will compare two types of rehabilitation in patients who undergo a surgery for treatment of malleolar fractures: immediate complete weight-bearing and delayed weight-bearing. The investigators want to evaluate if the immediate complete weight-bearing can improve and hasten the functional outcome of the ankle without increasing the risk of …
A Vaccine (H2NVAC) Before Surgery for the Treatment of HER2-Expressing Ductal Carcinoma In Situ
This phase Ib trial studies the side effects and best dose of a vaccine called H2NVAC before surgery in treating patients with HER2 expressing ductal carcinoma in situ. H2NVAC is a vaccine designed to stimulate specialized white blood cells in hopes of increasing immune response and protecting against breast cancer.
Preoperative RESpiratory Training and MOBilization to Prevent Postoperative Pulmonary Complications in Patients Undergoing Thoracic Surgery
Postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs) are the most frequent complications occurring in patients undergoing thoracic surgery and they are associated with prolonged hospital stay, decreased survival and expanding medical costs. Implementation of structured and supervised exercise programs including endurance training (ET), respiratory muscle training (RMT) or a combination of both, within …
Short-term Implanted Electrodes Following Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Surgery for Improving Prosthetic Limb Control Signals
The device, a bipolar percutaneous intramuscular electromyography electrode, is intended for use in upper-limb amputation patients who have received the regenerative peripheral nerve interface surgical procedure, in order to enable the use of advanced prosthetic arms and hands.
PET-study on the Role of the Reward System in Weight Loss After Bariatric Surgery
Bariatric surgery (BS) is currently the most effective treatment in severe obesity. However, a considerable percentage of patients undergoing BS fail to lose sufficient weight or regain weight after initial weight loss during long-term follow-up, which may be attributed to personality traits and pathological eating behaviour. Previous positron emission tomography …
Neoadjuvant IBI308, Bevacizumab, Plus Pemetrexed and Carboplatin Followed by Surgery in Unresectable Stage III NSCLC
The purpose of this study is to studying neoadjuvant IBI308, bevacizumab, plus pemetrexed and carboplatin followed by surgery to see how well it works in treating patients with unresectable stage III non-small cell lung cancer.
Remimazolam and Propofol on the Left Ventricular Strain During Anesthesia Induction for Non-cardiac Surgery
This study to compare the impacts of remimazolam or propofol on the left ventricular global longitudinal strain (LV-GLS) during anesthesia induction for non-cardiac surgery. LV-GLS is analyzed by using speckle tracking technique of transthoracic echocardiography.
