A listing of Scarborough, Canada clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
The purpose of this study is to find out if the treatment of adhesive capsulitis with 40 mg of methylprednisolone in combination with a hydrodilatation is comparable to 80 mg of methylprednisolone for pain reduction, improving shoulder mobility, and reducing side effects. Researchers will enroll 40 people in this study …
Outbreaks of seasonal respiratory viruses can spread rapidly in long-term care homes. Timely results for diagnostic tests remains a challenge for respiratory viruses due to the logistics of using a reference laboratory with delays leading to missed opportunities to implement virus-specific control measures to interrupt transmission resulting in larger outbreaks. …
This is an open label phase 1b trial of QX1206 in patients with T2DM and with NAFLD. Laboratory tests and other measurements will be assessed prior to the first dose of study treatment and throughout the study to determine the recommended phase 2 dose. In addition, the preliminary effects of …
The investigators propose to use clinically validated patient avatar technology ("PDXovo") that can test multiple drugs against patients' cancers to identify the most promising systemic therapy for each individual.
The Parents Together trial aims to determine if the Parents Together program consisting of virtual parent group sessions and coaching calls, will result in better health outcomes for children. The program which is facilitated by a Public Health Nurse seeks to encourage healthy lifestyle behaviours, help build strong family relationships, …
The INTACT-HIP trial study will evaluate feasibility of conducting a randomized, double-blinded controlled trial comparing postoperative treatment with intravenous (IV) acetaminophen versus oral acetaminophen, in older adults undergoing hip fracture surgery. The results of this feasibility trial will be used to inform designing a larger, multi-center, randomized controlled trial to …
Neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), often seen as "chronic cancer" present a survival paradox with relatively prolonged patient survival despite active disease. Treatment strategies emphasize management over cure, integrating tumor control with quality of life (QOL) considerations. Surgery is a cornerstone of NET management but demands a careful balance between its potential …
The DEFEND trial will be the world's first clinical trial to study the effectiveness of Paxlovid or Veklury in the prevention of cardiovascular post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 among hospitalized adults. Additionally, this pilot study will inform the design and conduct of a future full-scale multi-centre trial by testing the feasibility …
The most common cancer affecting Canadian women is breast cancer, with an estimated 1 in 8 women expected to be diagnosed with breast cancer during their lifetime. Improved screening and treatment have decreased mortality of breast cancer patients, however 14% of cancer-related deaths in Canadian women are still due to …
POAM is a multicenter, randomized, controlled, internal pilot trial, using a conventional, parallel group, two-armed design at 3 cardiac surgery centres in Canada. The study is designed to assess the feasibility of a future, definitive RCT investigating whether, in patients with chronic iron-deficiency anemia undergoing cardiac surgery, IV iron therapy …
