Pelvic Health Rehabilitation After Breast and Gynecologic Cancer
The GYVE study aims at testing an online program (eModule) to help people who have had breast or gynecologic cancer and are experiencing pelvic health issues like urinary incontinence and pain during sex. These cancers and their treatments can cause significant pelvic health problems, affecting daily life and quality of …
Physiotherapy Dry Needling Accuracy
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the addition of cadaver review improves: the accuracy of physiotherapists who practice dry needling. the perceived safety of dry needling by physiotherapists. Researchers will compare the effects of an anatomy review using cadaver material to that of an educational intervention …
Exploring the Use of Phototherapy to Improve CPAP Compliance
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a type of light therapy like lasers and LEDs. PBM was previously known by different terms like "low-level laser therapy" (LLLT) or "photobiostimulation." LLLT, despite its name, can also have effects beyond biomodulation, including thermal effects useful in medical imaging and therapy. PBM works by interacting with …
Testicular Evaluation of Azoospermia Using Micro-Ultrasound
The investigation is a small feasibility study to determine whether there are imaging features related to the seminiferous tubules in the testes under microultrasound. The results from this study will provide guidance on the design and power analysis of future studies in this area.
Inspiratory Muscle Training in Lung Transplant Candidates
Recovery after lung transplantation (LTx) may be complicated by prolonged mechanical ventilation (MV) and protracted intensive care unit (ICU) stay leading to immobilization and impaired health-related quality of life (HRQoL). In the critical care setting, diaphragm atrophy and weakness have been associated with difficulty weaning from MV, increased risk for …
A Study of Lower Radiotherapy Dose to Treat Children With CNS Germinoma
This phase II trial studies how well lower dose radiotherapy after chemotherapy (Carboplatin \& Etoposide) works in treating children with central nervous system (CNS) germinomas. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays, particles, or radioactive seeds to kill cancer cells and shrink tumors. Carboplatin is in a class of medications known …
Nimodipine Variability in SAH
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a life-threatening neurological illness: it is bleeding in the brain after a bulging blood vessel (a brain aneurysm) ruptures. Although SAH accounts for only 5% of all strokes, it often happens in middle age and it puts a significant burden on many patients during their …
RCT of Mind-body in Long COVID and Myalgic Encephalomyelitis
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, …
ELIOS - Investigational Biomarkers to Track Disease Modification in Active RRMS
The exploratory ELIOS study aims to assess the value of novel investigational Eye Movement Biomarkers (EMBs) in tracking disease-related changes among a real-world cohort of Canadian patients with active RRMS, within the context of disease-modifying treatment (i.e., ofatumumab). To that end, the study will use the patented investigational, Eye Tracking …
Testing the Effects of Novel Therapeutics for Newly Diagnosed, Untreated Patients With High-Risk Acute Myeloid Leukemia (A MyeloMATCH Treatment Trial)
This phase II MyeloMATCH treatment trial tests whether the standard approach of cytarabine and daunorubicin in comparison to the following experimental regimens works to shrink cancer in patients with high risk acute myeloid leukemia (AML): 1) daunorubicin and cytarabine liposome alone; 2) cytarabine and daunorubicin with venetoclax; 3) azacitidine and …
