A Phase II Study of Durvalumab Treatment - Substudy A: In Patients Who Discontinued Prior Checkpoint Therapy Due to Immune Related Toxicity - Substudy B: For Continued Treatment (+/- Tremelimumab) of Patients Previously Enrolled to Completed CCTG Studies
I238A: The purpose of this study is to find out what effects being treated with durvalumab has on cancer. The researchers doing this study also want to evaluate if prednisone (a type of steroid), when given together with durvalumab, can reduce any side effects. I238B: The purpose of this study …
Randomized Comparison of PARtial Wrist Fusion With or Without Triquetral Excision (PARTE)
This randomized clinical trial (RCT) aims to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of different partial wrist fusion techniques in participants with post-traumatic wrist arthritis. Participants with stage II or III scapholunate advanced collapse (SLAC) or scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) who meet the eligibility criteria will be randomly assigned to …
Early-life MRI Biomarkers of Longer-term Respiratory Morbidity in Infants Born Extremely Preterm (EMBLEM)
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a common, major complication of premature birth, associated with developmental and health consequences that continue into adulthood. Prediction of who will have these problems is challenging using traditional definitions of disease. It is believed that underdevelopment and injury occur in both lung tissue and the blood …
CELECOXIB Plasma and Cerebral Spinal Fluid Pharmacokinetics in Children
Celecoxib is effective for reducing postoperative pain in adults. Children use celecoxib more rapidly than adults and require higher doses. Celecoxib is partially metabolized in the liver by a certain enzyme. A person's genetic variation of this enzyme can influence how well their body uses Celecoxib. Furthermore, Celecoxib down-regulates P-glycoprotein …
Umbilical Mesenchymal Stromal Cells as Cellular Immunotherapy for Septic Shock
Septic shock is associated with substantial burden in terms of both mortality and morbidity for survivors of this illness. Pre-clinical sepsis studies suggest that mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSCs) modulate inflammation, enhance pathogen clearance and tissue repair and reduce death. Our team has completed a Phase I dose escalation and …
Therapeutic Plasma Exchange in Septic Shock: A Pilot Study
The investigators propose to conduct a multi-center randomized pilot feasibility trial comparing therapeutic plasma exchange to standard of care in patients diagnosed with septic shock.
Intra-Operative Adductor Canal Blocks
Adductor canal blocks (ACB) have been recommended in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to provide better control of post-operative pain, facilitate early ambulation, and reduce length of stay in the hospital. ACB is typically done before surgery by an anesthesiologist, which may increase time per case, cost, and requires the specialized …
The ALOFT Pilot Trial
The ALOFT Pilot Trial will evaluate three pragmatic elements (recruitment, adherence, and follow-up) of neuraxial versus general anesthesia for lower limb revascularization surgery that are necessary to support a successful, large-scale evaluation. We will concurrently use implementation science methodology to further refine processes for the larger trial. The future full …
Effect of Community Choir Singing in People With Chronic Post-stroke Aphasia
The goal of this randomized controled trial is to test the effects of assigning people with chronic post-stroke aphasia to 12 weekly choir sessions, compared to usual care. The main question it aims to answer is: Does the assignment to a choir singing program causes a beneficial effect on functional …
Is Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Effective in Reducing Endometriosis-associated Pain
The goal of this research is to improve pain outcomes for the over 500K Canadian women, girls and gender-diverse individuals who are newly diagnosed with endometriosis each year. Chronic pain that persists after interventions for endometriosis is a huge problem. There is some evidence that endometriosis-associated pain (EAP) is, at …
