Kidney Sodium Content in Cardiorenal Patients
Diuretic therapy is the cornerstone of the management of fluid overload in heart failure. Resistance to diuretic therapy is the most common reason for treatment failure in patients affected by the combination of heart failure and kidney disease. Currently, there is no way of predicting whether heart failure patients will …
HNFO With or Without Helmet NIV for Oxygenation Support in Acute Respiratory Failure Pilot RCT
This Randomized Control Trial will directly compare helmet non-invasive ventilation (NIV) combined with high flow nasal oxygen (HFNO) versus HFNO alone in patients with Acute Hypoxemic Respiratory Failure (AHRF).
The Safety and Efficacy of Redsenol-1 Plus on Cancer-related Fatigue in Adults
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Redsenol-1 Plus on cancer-related fatigue (CRF) in adults. The change in the severity of CRF from baseline at week 12 will be assessed by the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) fatigue subscale, and compared …
Partial Oral Antimicrobials to Treat Infective Endocarditis in People Who Inject Drugs
Infective endocarditis (IE) is a serious infection associated with significant morbidity and mortality. Recent studies demonstrated an increased risk of infective endocarditis in people who inject drugs (PWIDs). PWIDs have a high rate of non-compliance with hospital admissions and leaving against medical advice. A recent landmark randomized controlled trial demonstrated …
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 …
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

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 …
Advancing Brain Outcomes in Pediatric Critically Ill Patients Sedated With Volatile AnEsthestic Agents
The goal of a pilot study is to test a study plan to see if it is appropriate for a larger study. This study plan is looking at whether the use of inhaled sedatives (medications that help people be calm and sleep) can reduce delirium (extreme confusion) in children who …
Tech-wise Driver (Technology Acceptance of Targeted ADAS for Older Adults)
The tech-wise driver: Exploring the sustained efficacy and technology acceptance of targeted ADAS for older drivers A significant percentage of road traffic fatalities registered in Canada occurred among older adults. According to the studies, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) can enhance the safety and mitigate the age-related declines of …
