A listing of Markham, Canada clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
The main purpose of this trial is to determine whether the addition of the VIEWER virtual care platform to usual care will lead to a reduction in composite emergency department (ED) visits and/or hospitalizations/or increase the perceived safety of virtual care among patients and providers.
This study will investigate the role of sampling suspicious chest lymph nodes with a procedure called endobronchial ultrasound-guided transbronchial fine needle aspiration (EBUS-TFNA) or transesophageal ultrasound-guided fine needle aspiration (EUS-FNA) in patients planned to receive radical dose radiation. This study will use Stereotactic Ablative Radiotherapy (SABR) for treatment methods. SABR …
The purpose of the study is to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of cochlear implantation of the approved population in adults and children with single-sided deafness and asymmetric hearing loss.
The purpose of this study is to find out whether a novel manualized intervention, called Emotion and Symptom-focused Engagement (EASE), that combines psychological support with symptom screening plus triggered referral to early palliative care for symptom control, reduces psychological distress and physical symptom burden in individuals newly diagnosed with acute …
The incidence of diabetes in pregnancy is rising, with rates of 1 in 7 pregnancies globally. Metformin is used for type 2 diabetes (T2DM) outside of pregnancy and is now increasingly prescribed during pregnancy. There are some concerns as metformin crosses the placenta and effects on offspring exposed during pregnancy …
This is a study that will recruit patients from the neurosurgery clinic and the regular TMS clinic. It's a smaller study designed to collect brain imaging pre-treatment and then use image guided TMS to treat patient with a one week "accelerated" rTMS protocol using the research TMS machine that is …
This study is a prospective open-label randomized clinical trial. Following informed consent eligible LASCCHN patients (n=100) planned for CRT will be stratified by tumor p16 status and then randomized in a 1:1 fashion to either concurrent HD cisplatin or concurrent weekly LD cisplatin.
Upwards of 40% of cancer patients will develop brain metastases during their illness, most of which become symptomatic. The burden of brain metastases impacts the quality and length of survival. Thus the management of brain metastases is a significant health care problem. Standard treatment options include stereotactic radiosurgery and/or whole …
This randomized clinical trial will compare three groups of individuals with cervical/thoracic, complete or incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI) that will undergo: (i) early CPAP therapy in the management of moderate-to-severe sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBDs) among adults at 6 weeks after SCI; (ii) delayed CPAP therapy in the management of …
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility 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.
