Novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging-Guided Ultrasound-Stimulated Microbubble Radiation Treatment for Patients With Chest-Wall and Breast Cancer
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy and response of novel Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided ultrasound stimulated microbubble treatment to enhance radiation effects in humans receiving external beam radiotherapy delivered using a LINAC (linear accelerator) radiation therapy device.
Efficacy of Balloon Dilation of the Eustachian Tube in Eustachian Tube Dilatory Dysfunction
This study is being conducted to learn more about a procedure, balloon dilation of the eustachian tube, in treating patients with eustachian tube dysfunction. Traditionally, eustachian tube dysfunction is treated with nasal steroid sprays and decongestants, or by placement of ear tubes. However, current evidence suggest that medical options are …
Regeneration of Acutely Injured Nerves With Temporary Electrical Stimulation
A novel temporary peripheral nerve stimulation system that delivers a single dose of electrical stimulation therapy for 1 hour will be evaluated for safety and effectiveness.
Use of Quantitative Ultrasound to Guide Adaptive Chemotherapy Among Women With Breast Cancer
The primary objective of this study is to assess the feasibility of randomizing breast cancer patients to quantitative ultrasound to guide adaptive Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy as compared to standard clinical monitoring and therapy. The Investigators have previously demonstrated that high-frequency ultrasound and spectroscopy, and recently conventional-frequency ultrasound and spectroscopy may be …
UltrasouNd-guided Percutaneous Intercostal Nerve Cryoneurolysis for Analgesia Following Traumatic Rib Fracture
Traumatic rib fractures (i.e., broken ribs caused by a physical injury) are common and very painful. They also often lead to serious complications, more time spent in hospital, and can even lead to death. Even after rib fractures have healed, they can lead to long-term pain and a lower quality …
Quantitative and Repetitive TMS in ALS - Recruiting for Stage 2
Stage 1 \[Enrolment closed\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and feasibility of accelerated, repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) using continuous theta-burst stimulation (cTBS) in patients with ALS. Stage 2 \[CURRENTLY ENROLLING\]: The goal of this open-label pilot clinical trial is to evaluate …
Using Rectal Hydrogel Spacer for Salvage SABR in Prostate Cancer
There are several single institutional series that have reported their experience with salvage radiotherapy options that include EBRT, LDR and HDR brachytherapy. Gastrointestinal (GI) toxicity with salvage radiotherapy range between14-58%, respectively for patients undergoing re-irradiation. There is a concern for an increased risk of fistula development in these patients who …
Efficacy of Sodium Thiosulfate and Mannitol in Reducing Ototoxicity in Adult Patients Receiving Cisplatin Chemotherapy
One common side effect of cisplatin chemotherapy is ototoxicity. The drugs sodium thiosulfate and mannitol may protect against cisplatin-induced hearing loss. Specifically, sodium thiosulfate has been found to protect the cells in the inner ear, and may therefore prevent hearing loss. Mannitol can help sodium thiosulfate enter the inner ear, …
Home-based Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) to Promote Social Communication and Behaviour in Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of non-invasive brain stimulation that can be delivered in a home setting. It is a safe and tolerable intervention that has shown promise for improving positive social communication and self-regulation in youth with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Children and youth with ASD …
Cannabidiol Medication Intervention Trial
CALM-IT is a Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over clinical trial. Safety and efficacy of cannabidiol (CBD) capsules assessed for managing agitation in patients with AD and to identify novel biomarkers of agitation severity and treatment response.
