This is a first-in-human, Phase I, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of VVD-133214 monotherapy, and in combination with bevacizumab or pembrolizumab, in participants with microsatellite instability (MSI) and/or deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) advanced solid tumors. VVD-133214 is …
The primary purpose of this investigation is to determine whether water carbonation can improve orthostatic tolerance in healthy control volunteers. Orthostatic tolerance refers to the ability to maintain an adequate blood pressure when standing. In some individuals blood pressure can fall when standing, predisposing to dizzy spells or fainting episodes. …
Utilization data will be collected from all patients entered on the trial at Canadian centres from the time of registration until death, removal from study, or completion of 10 years of follow-up.

The purpose is to determine if patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) taking nintedanib will have improved exercise endurance, breathlessness and quality of life if breathing 60% oxygen compared to standard of care during an 8 week exercise training program.
The investigators are studying a new rehabilitation treatment for individuals trying to recover walking after spinal cord injury (SCI). The investigators will test conditions in the blood and spinal fluid to determine the best time to start this new training program. This will include checking for certain features called biomarkers …
RGX-202 is a gene therapy designed to deliver a transgene for a novel microdystrophin that includes functional elements of naturally-occurring dystrophin including the C-Terminal (CT) domain. This is a multicenter, open-label dose evaluation clinical study to assess the safety, tolerability, and clinical efficacy of a one-time intravenous (IV) dose of …
Infants born preterm can spend months in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) where they experience stressful but essential procedures.
