A listing of Laval, Quebec, Canada clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
This study will evaluate the effect of fasting duration and elective c-section start time on the overall quality of recovery. Patients will be seen 24 hours after surgery to answer 11 questions on their overall recovery after surgery. Several factors will be tracked to determine their effect on recovery, with …
Video-assisted thoracoscopic lung resection (VATS) is a minimally invasive surgical approach frequently used in the treatment of lung cancers. The most commonly used analgesic technique for this surgery is the paravertebral block with a single peroperative injection of local anesthetic. However, a recent study conducted at our institution revealed that …
The ALSTARS trial will be conducted across 20-25 sites in the US and Canada, and will evaluate the safety and efficacy of an investigational treatment called COYA 302 for adults with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). COYA 302 is an investigational and proprietary biologic combination therapy with a dual immunomodulatory mechanism …
This study investigates a portable thoracic bioimpedance tomography (TBIT) device designed to detect early lung congestion in heart failure patients. The main goal is to evaluate how well the device's measurements match those obtained from lung ultrasound and other imaging techniques. By detecting lung fluid build-up before symptoms worsen, this …
A closed-loop insulin system, often labelled the "artificial pancreas" (AP), consists of an insulin pump, a continuous glucose monitor, and an interface coordinating between them to regulate insulin dosage based on glucose levels. Primarily designed for managing type 1 diabetes, this system has demonstrated significant benefits in previous studies. Yet, …
This project aims to study an innovative intervention, the eG2 Intervention, developed by speech-language pathologists at the Centre hospitalier de l'Université de Montréal to improve therapeutic adherence and prevent dysphagia in patients treated with chemoradiotherapy for head and neck cancer. The innovation consists in offering a speech therapy intervention that …
The goal of this randomized crossover study is to test the prediction that consuming carbohydrates will affect insulin release differently depending on whether Non-Nutritive Sweeteners (NNSs) are consumed simultaneously. We aim to determine whether the predicted effects are associated with oral or post-oral sweet taste receptor signaling,. Our study will …
The REMODAL trial is a randomized crossover study aiming to update treatment guidelines for mild hypoglycemia in people with Type 1 diabetes using continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) technology. The study will assess whether treating mild hypoglycemia proactively (at a glucose threshold of 5.0 mmol/L) with lower doses of carbohydrate (CHO) …
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a progressive neurological disorder characterized by selective death of upper and lower motor neurons, which leads to severe disability and fatal outcomes. One of the major hallmarks of ALS is the denervation of neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), which is one of the earliest events seen in …
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacodynamics (PD) and pharmacokinetics (PK) of single or repeat doses of ALN-HTT02.
