A listing of Downsview, Canada clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
There is no widely used, statistically validated assessment for physical and mental health for the short- to medium-term in a postpartum population. PROMIS-29 has been validated for the assessment of these factors in a generic population, but has not been specifically evaluated for use with postpartum women. This study is …
This study is open to patients with a type of cancer called melanoma. Patients can join the study if their tumor cannot be removed by surgery or has spread to other organs, and are planned to receive immunotherapy as treatment for their cancer. This study is looking at whether taking …
We are studying the effect of a mind-body treatment for people with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (ME/CFS) with or without Long COVID (LC). Our team recognizes that ME/CFS and Long COVID are serious, debilitating, biomedical conditions. ME/CFS can affect many different parts of the body, such as the nervous system, …
Epidemiological studies suggest that the use of cannabis is associated with an increase in the risk of motor vehicle collisions. It is also known that younger users may be at increased risk for motor vehicle collisions. Further, the frequency with which cannabis is used may be an important variable in …
Functional neurosurgery is dedicated to modulating aberrant neural circuits associated with a wide range of neurological conditions. Recently, technological advances in MRI have permitted marked improvements in the direct visualization of neural targets, which is necessary for the accurate targeting in functional neurosurgery procedures. This research study focuses on imaging …
Moderate-severe intraventricular hemorrhage (msIVH, Grades II-IV) is a significant neurological complication among extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGANs, \<=27+6 weeks) and is associated with long-term neuro-disabilities. In Canada, msIVH affects \~25-30% of the 1300 ELGANs born annually, with little change in incidence over last decade. Typically, it occurs between days …
The current study aims to better understand the efficacy of intermittent theta-burst stimulation (iTBS) treatment in patients diagnosed with post-concussion syndrome (PCS) and to explore changes in brain networks after undergoing iTBS to assess its safety and feasibility in treating PCS.
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) is a very common illness that is usually treated with antidepressant medication. Depression can be caused by many things such as childhood experiences, genetics, and changes in the way the body and brain function. For those with depression where medication and psychotherapy have limited benefit, repetitive …
The goal of this cross-sectional, observational, medical device trial is to examine the association of several sleep parameters, including specific respiratory events and an apnea-hypopnea index, with cognitive performance in older adults. The main question the study aims to answer is: Is there an association between sleep parameters with cognitive …
This is a prospective observational study using whole genome sequencing (WGS) to investigate whether new strains (other than the initially identified strain(s)) of M. avium are responsible for persistently culture positive sputum during treatment (refractory disease), or the reversion to culture positive sputum after prior conversion to negative. The study …
