A Study of Head and Neck MRI and Tumor Microenvironment Biomarkers
The purpose of this study is to explore biomarker development in patients with newly diagnosed Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) receiving curative therapy.
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in the Treatment of Primary Progressive Aphasia
While many have strongly suggested that transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) may represent a beneficial intervention for patients with primary progressive aphasia (PPA), this promising technology has not yet been applied widely in clinical settings. This treatment gap is underscored by the absence of any neurally-focused standard-of-care treatments to mitigate …
High Flow Nasal Cannula Versus Non-Invasive Ventilation in Exacerbations of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease
Chronic obstructive lung disease is a disabling disease that affects people usually after several years of smoke tobacco exposure and affects millions of patients worldwide. The disease is marked by multiples episode of worsening, termed exacerbations necessitating frequent hospitalizations. During these exacerbations, patients present breathless, and in the most severe …
ODYSSEE Kidney Health Trial
INTRODUCTION Severe CKD is defined as a risk of greater than 10% for progressing to RRT \[home hemodialysis (HHD), home peritoneal dialysis (HPD), and transplantation\] within 2 years. There is a need to improve access to CKD self-care counselling and RRT education for patients with severe CKD. Trials of CKD …

The purpose of this study is to collect data for assessing the improvement of the overall response rate for the overall cohorts and the proportion of patients accessing precision targeted therapy.
Radiation OmisSion in PAtients With CLinically Node Negative Breast Cancer Undergoing Lumpectomy
To de-escalate radiation therapy in women with breast cancer.
IVIM & OLINK in Sarcoma
The hypoxia \> metastasis axis suggests that a DWI-based biomarker of hypoxia incorporating IVIM may be able to predict metastasis in STS patients, ultimately enabling stratification for personalized treatments at the time of diagnostic (MR) imaging, without adding an excessive burden to the patient or clinical workflow (typical DWI/IVIM sequences …
Impact of Metabolic Health Patterns And Breast Cancer Over Time in Women
Background \& Rationale: Breast cancer (BC) is the most commonly diagnosed malignancy in women worldwide (2.1 million diagnoses in 2018, 25% of new cancer cases). In Canada, early stage BC mortality rates have decreased by 48% over the past 30 years as a result of advances in prevention, detection, and …
Comparing the Dose-response Profiles of Uterotonics After Initial Carbetocin Administration - an Ex-vivo Study in Desensitized Human Myometrium
This study will investigate the effects of drugs called "uterotonics" that help with the contraction of the uterus after a baby is born. This uterine contraction is very important to stop the bleeding after delivery. An uncontracted uterine state is called "uterine atony", which can lead to an excessive amount …
