SYNERGIC-2 Trial (SYNchronizing, Exercises and Remedies to GaIn Cognition@Home)
In Canada, 1,700,000 adults are at risk of dementia, half of them with MCI,representing one of the largest groups at risk for an incurable disease. Epidemiological evidence suggests up to 40% of dementia cases might be preventable by targeting modifiable lifestyle and cardiovascular factors. Given that current treatments cannot modify …
Osimertinib Then Chemotherapy in EGFR-mutated Lung Cancer With Osimertinib Third-line Rechallenge
This phase II single-armed study will examine the clinical utility of retreating patients with osimertinib, in the third-line, following first-line treatment with osimertinib and second-line treatment with platinum and pemetrexed chemotherapy. The current standard of care for first-line Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutated Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (aNSCLC) …
Hypofractionated External-beam RadiOtherapy for Intact Cervical Cancer (HEROICC-Trial): A Feasibility Study
External radiation given in 25 fractions or so together with weekly chemotherapy and followed by 3 or 4 fractions of brachytherapy is the standard of care for patients with locally advanced cervical cancer. This study investigates the role of shortened external radiotherapy regimen (hypofractionated radiotherapy) by randomizing patients to this …
Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) Versus TACE Plus Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy (SBRT) in Liver Carcinoma
Trans-arterial chemoembolization (TACE) is a standard treatment for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (also called liver cancer). This is where chemotherapy is injected into the arteries of the liver and liver cancer. Unfortunately, the tumour grows after TACE in many patients. A new treatment using a specialized radiation procedure called Stereotactic …
Effect of Metformin on Behaviour and the Brain in Children Treated for a Brain Tumour
The efficacy of treatment with metformin for promoting cognitive recovery and brain growth in children/adolescents treated for medulloblastoma will be investigated in a multi-site Phase III randomized double-blind placebo-controlled parallel arm superiority trial. Specifically, in children/adolescents aged 7 years to 17 years and 11 months who have completed treatment for …
Early Ileostomy Closure for Rectal Cancer Patients in North America
Our preliminary work demonstrates that there is buy-in from both patients and surgeons with regards to early ileostomy closure (EIC) for select rectal cancer patients undergoing restorative proctectomy (RP) and diverting loop ileostomy (DLI). The feedback from leaders in Europe further supports the need for a large scale randomized-controlled trial …
A Randomized Phase III Trial of Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy for Patients With Up to 10 Oligometastases and a Synchronous Primary Tumor.
This study is a phase III multi-institutional randomized trial. Patients will be randomized in a 1:2 ratio between current standard of care treatment (Arm 1) vs. standard of care treatment + SABR (Arm 2) to sites of known disease. Patients will be stratified by two of the strongest prognostic factors, …
Place-based Cochlear Implant Mapping
The current standard of care approach for programming cochlear implants uses a generalized pitch-map for all patients. This approach fails to account for individualized inner ear anatomy. As a result, many cochlear implant recipients experience place-pitch mismatch. We have recently developed an automated mathematical tool to produce patient-specific, customized cochlear …
Pembrolizumab and Brentuximab Vedotin vs GDP and Stem Cell Transplant for Relapsed/Refractory Hodgkin Lymphoma
This study is being done to determine if two new drugs can shrink or eliminate classical Hodgkins lymphoma.
Intranasal Dexmedetomidine Plus Ketamine for Procedural Sedation
Orthopedic injuries comprise more than 10% of ED visits in children and 25 to 50% of children will sustain a fracture before age 16 years. Distal radius fractures account for 20-32% of fractures in children, making them the most common fracture type. Between 20 and 40% of extremity fractures in …
