Nabilone for Agitation in Frontotemporal Dementia
The primary goal of this study is to test the hypothesis that oral nabilone treatment will reduce agitation compared with placebo in patients with Frontotemporal Dementia (both behavioural variant frontotemporal dementia and primary progressive aphasia). The study population is defined as patients with probable Frontotemporal Dementia that meet the International …
Sotagliflozin to Slow Kidney Function Decline in Persons With Type 1 Diabetes and Diabetic Kidney Disease
Powerful new drugs that can prevent or delay end stage kidney disease (ESKD) - so called sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitors (SGLT2i) - are now available for patients with type 2 diabetes. Whether these drugs have similar effects in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) remains unknown because of the few studies …
Topical Betamethasone Versus Moisturizer in Preventing Radiation Dermatitis in Large-Breasted Patients Treated in the Prone Position
Radiotherapy (RT) is common in the treatment of breast cancer, however, 95% of breast cancer patients are at risk of developing acute and chronic skin toxicities known as radiation dermatitis (RD) which includes symptoms such as pruritus, edema, erythema, and moist desquamation (MD). Patients with a larger breast size are …
Focused Ultrasound Neuromodulation in Patients With Treatment-Resistant Depression
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety and initial effectiveness of Magnetic Resonance-guided focused ultrasound neuromodulation using the Next Generation Dome Helmet (NGDH) device in patients with treatment-resistant depression. This is a prospective, single-arm, non-randomized study. Participants will: Undergo two focused ultrasound treatment sessions targeting nodes …
A Study of a Potential Disease Modifying Treatment in Individuals at Risk for or With a Type of Early Onset AD Caused by a Genetic Mutation
The purpose of this research study is to test the study drug, referred to as remternetug, to determine its effectiveness for the study treatment of asymptomatic (at risk) Alzheimer disease in individuals with AD-causing mutations. This study will also investigate the effects of remternetug on biomarkers (measures of the disease …
Maitake for Integrative Cancer Care
Maitake is an edible mushroom that is used for both its nutritional and medicinal properties. Human and animal studies have shown Maitake may help improve immune function; however, its effectiveness in people with cancer is not clear. The investigators aim to measure if Maitake has any immunomodulatory effects when given …
The Diaphragmatic Initiated Ventilatory Assist (DIVA) Trial
DIVA is a pragmatic randomized clinical trial (RCT) to determine: among (P) preterm infants born 23 0/7-28 6/7 weeks gestation undergoing extubation from mechanical ventilation, whether (I) Non-invasive neurally adjusted ventilatory assist (NIV-NAVA) (C) compared with Non-synchronized nasal intermittent positive pressure ventilation (NS-NIPPV), will reduce the incidence of (O) extubation …
Ultrasound Imaging and Spectroscopy as Early Indicators of Locally-Advanced Breast Cancer Response
This work explores the possibility of using ultrasound imaging and spectroscopy as a way of monitoring cell death, hence, tumour response to treatment. The hypothesis here is that it can be used as a way of monitoring early response to cancer treatment and predicting which patients continue on in their …
Comprehensive Analysis Platform To Understand, Remedy and Eliminate ALS
CAPTURE ALS is a long-term data and biorepository platform that will facilitate future ALS research. CAPTURE ALS will provide the standardized systems and tools necessary to collect, store, and analyze vast amounts of multimodal information about ALS. These multimodal datasets and biosamples will be made available for use by researchers …
2 Ablative RadioTherapy Treatments for Prostate Cancer
Favorable-risk prostate cancer represent a large proportion of patients diagnosed with prostate cancer and image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) is commonly used to treat these patients using protracted courses of up to 39 treatments over 8 weeks. Stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) protocols hold the promise of more convenience, less …
