Inhaled Nitric Oxide for Cardiac Arrest in Pediatrics and Adults (iNOCAPA)
This study is a multi-center, double blind, randomized controlled trial of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) in children and adults with cardiac arrest (CA). The purpose of this pilot study is to test the feasibility of rapidly randomizing patients to iNO or sham treatment during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) or shortly after …
Oropharyngeal Exercises to Treat Obstructive Sleep Apnea
The goal of this study is to determine whether a randomized controlled trial using oropharyngeal exercises to treat sleep apnea is feasible. Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) is the standard therapy for Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), but it is poorly tolerated by many patients. Oropharyngeal exercises (OPEs) which are commonly …
Promoting Cognitive Health in Schizophrenia
The goal of this clinical trial is to effectively implement virtually-delivered interventions in mental health institutions nationwide to improve the cognitive health of individuals living with schizophrenia. The main objectives are: To determine the clinical effectiveness of two virtual cognitive health interventions (i.e., Action-Based Cognitive Remediation or MetaCognitive Training). To …
Timing of Post-prostatectomy PSMA Imaging
The investigators will randomize patients presenting with early BCR with a negative baseline PSMA PET/CT, to upfront SRT or surveillance. Early BCR is defined as a PSA relapse of >0.1 to <0.3 ng/mL. Patients in the surveillance arm will be monitored with PSA every 3 months. A repeat PSMA PET/CT …

The Effects of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation on Treatment Adherence in Schizophrenia
This study seeks to explore the effects of transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS), a non-invasive method of brain stimulation, as an adjunctive treatment to improve antipsychotic medication adherence in patients with schizophrenia (SCZ). The investigators hypothesize that 20 sessions of tDCS will improve medication nonadherence in patients with SCZ.
Study of Safety and Tolerability of BCA101 Monotherapy and in Combination Therapy in Patients With EGFR-driven Advanced Solid Tumors
The investigational drug to be studied in this protocol, BCA101, is a first-in-class compound that targets both EGFR with TGFβ. Based on preclinical data, this bifunctional antibody may exert synergistic activity in patients with EGFR-driven tumors.
Anesthesia Induced Brain Cancer Survival (ABC Survival): A Feasibility Study
Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide. It is estimated that approximately 55,000 Canadians are surviving with brain tumors. It is projected that around 3000 persons will be diagnosed with brain and spinal cord tumors, and approximately 75 percent patients will not survive. Out of all brain cancers, high-grade …
Metformin for Antipsychotic-induced Weight Gain in Adults With Intellectual Disability
People with IDD (intellectual and developmental disability) have very high rates of obesity and die prematurely from cardiometabolic disease. While antipsychotics contribute to this problem, their use is necessary and appropriate in a significant subgroup of individuals with IDD. Exercise and diet interventions have limitations and may not be sufficient, …
Oral 'Breath Test' to Measure Anabolic Sensitivity in Young and Older Adults at Different Activity Levels
Recent work in the investigators laboratory has examined the ability of a non-invasive 13CO2 breath-test to assess differences in amino acid oxidation rates and net balance in young healthy males following protein feeding and resistance exercise. The investigators aim to test the efficacy of this non-invasive 13CO2 breath-test to assess …
