Toronto Gestational Glucose Tolerance Cohort
In this prospective observational cohort study, women representing the full spectrum of gestational glucose tolerance status are undergoing longitudinal cardiometabolic characterization at regular intervals in the years after the index pregnancy.
A Study to Compare the Results of FGFR Testing by Either ctDNA Blood Testing or Standard Tumor Tissue Testing
A new drug, erdafitinib, became available for some patients with bladder cancer that has spread to other organs. To qualify, patients must have specific genetic changes in their tumors. Currently, doctors use tumor tissue samples to check for these genetic changes, but these samples might not accurately reflect the current …
Adaptive Optics Retinal Imaging in Inherited and Acquired Retinal Disorders
This is a Prospective Observational study. The aim of the study is to understand the underlying photoreceptor, retinal pigment epithelium or retinal vascular aberrations in inherited and acquired retinal disorders. The study would use adaptive optics (AO) technology to assist in-vivo visualization of these retinal structures and ascertain changes from …
Patient Reported Outcomes/Metrics Program Trial
This is an observational study to investigate if it is feasible to recruit 100 patients receiving radiotherapy (RT) to metastatic disease to wear Hexoskin and if Hexoskin will facilitate the monitoring, detection and early treatment of RT-related side effects.
Using a Blood Test to Monitor Metastatic Breast Cancer Treatment
The goal of this observational study is to assess the effectiveness of the mDETECT breast cancer blood test at monitoring treatment response in women with metastatic breast cancer undergoing treatment.
Airway Closure During Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation: The AiCLOSE Study
About 65,000 Canadians develop acute respiratory failure requiring breathing machines (ventilators) to give oxygen to their lungs. Unfortunately, up to 50% of these individuals will not survive their illness. Mechanical ventilation through breathing machines, though potentially lifesaving, may further injure the lungs and the respiratory muscles. In the patients with …
Atypical Fracture Cohort Study
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by increased bone fragility and deteriorating bone micro-architecture. The main consequence of osteoporosis is low-trauma fractures, most often of the hip, spine and wrist. Recently, another type of low-trauma fracture, atypical femur fractures (AFFs), have received much attention. Little is known of the cause of …
ALA-induced Fluorescence Imaging of Breast Cancers Using the Handheld PRODIGI and Eagle Imaging Devices
Breast cancer is the most commonly occurring cancer in women. Currently, breast conservation surgery (BCS) is the treatment most often prescribed. BCS involves removing the tumor while conserving the greatest amount of healthy breast tissue. Under standard white light, tumor borders are difficult for the surgeons to visualize. Therefore, between …
Respiratory Support and Brain Health in Preterm Infants
Premature babies often require breathing support during their neonatal intensive care unit stay. This is because their lungs are not fully developed to perform the work of breathing on their own. Although breathing support can be provided via a breathing tube, it is preferable to provide breathing support non-invasively from …
Immune Resistance Interrogation Study
This is a prospective research study which will include patients who have progressed on immunotherapy as their most recent line of therapy. This study aims to characterize whether patients who fail to respond to immunotherapy versus patients who respond initially but after a period of time progress demonstrate different genomic, …
