Diet Intervention Treatment for Active Ulcerative Colitis
The purpose of this study is to determine if a sustainable non-elemental diet can be used as a probiotic tool to alter the dysbiotic microbiome found in individuals with ulcerative colitis and thereby decrease disease activity.
Three-level Model of DBT-informed Care for Youth With and/or at Familial Risk for Bipolar Disorder (DB3)
This study seeks to bridge the knowledge-to-action gap regarding psychosocial treatment "dosing" for youth with and/or at familial risk for bipolar disorder (BD). In psychiatry, pragmatic collaborative decisions between patient and care provider about pharmacological titrations and tapers are common. Less frequently are there considerations made regarding the pragmatic dosing …
Intra-operative Evaluation of the External Ventricular Drain Catheter Position With Structured Light for Patients (Bullseye EVD)
The placement of external ventricular drainage (EVD) is a life-saving procedure used to relieve high pressures in the brain. Often performed at the bedside, a small tube (catheter) is inserted into one ventricle of the brain to drain cerebrospinal fluid and release the pressure build up. In standard practice, EVDs …
Stereotactic Ablative Radiation Therapy for Abiraterone-Resistant, Oligoprogressive Metastatic Prostate Cancer
There is increasing worldwide interest in exploring stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) for treating metastases in men with prostate cancer, including for the treatment of oligoprogressive metastases. The latter applies to a situation whereby patients with widespread metastases undergoing systemic therapy present with a solitary or a few metastatic tumors …
Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy vs Conventional Palliative Radiotherapy for Painful Non-Spine Bone Metastases
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy or SBRT (a form of radiation therapy which can deliver high doses of radiation to the specific painful area of the body most affected by cancer, while keeping the radiation beams away from the healthy …
STRatIfication of Vulvar SCC by HPV and p53 Status to Guide Excision

Phase II Study of Daily Adaptive Radiotherapy for Submandibular Gland-sparing in Head and Neck Cancer
This is a randomized, single centre, single blinded prospective study comparing the standard of care imaging guided radiation therapy and daily adaptive radiotherapy (ART) for submandibular gland-sparing in head and neck cancer
Benefits of Choir for Older Adults With Unaddressed Hearing Loss (WP2)
Unaddressed age-related hearing loss is highly prevalent among older adults, typified by negative consequences for speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. There is promising evidence that group singing may enhance speech-in-noise perception and psychosocial wellbeing. However, there is a lack of robust evidence, primarily due to the literature being based on …
LUNG-ROLL: Treatment Patterns and Cost of Illness of Lung Cancer in Canada
LUNG-ROLL is a retrospective cohort study that will describe the contemporary treatment patterns, prevalence and incidence, patient demographic and clinical characteristics, clinical outcomes, and healthcare resource use/costs for patients with lung cancer in Canada (specifically, Alberta and Ontario) using administrative data.
Study of High-Precision Evaluation of Molecular ResiduaL Disease Through a PlatfOrm for Cancer TracKing and Interception (SHERLOCK)
This study will collect, annotate, and sequence biospecimens (blood, tissue, urine, saliva and surgery drainage) from patients across different cancer types to detect molecular residual disease (MRD). Imaging scans and clinical data will also be gathered. This will allow for early cancer interception, and hopefully prolong relapse-free survival across tumor …
