A listing of Scarborough, Canada clinical trials actively recruiting patients volunteers.
This study aims to compare two common ultrasound techniques used during heart surgery: transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) and transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). TTE is performed by placing an ultrasound probe on the chest, while TEE involves inserting a probe into the esophagus, which provides closer and clearer images of the heart. Both …
This study will evaluate the efficacy, safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of JTE-162 administered once daily for 2 weeks in subjects with cryopyrin-associated periodic syndrome (CAPS)
The purpose of this study is to see if brenipatide, when compared to placebo, is safe and effective for participants with opioid use disorder, when used with buprenorphine with or without naloxone. The maximum potential duration of study participation for a participant in Part A is approximately 144 weeks, maximum …
The purpose of this trial is to conduct an adequately powered clinical trial of once daily LFR for individuals diagnosed with treatment-resistant BD-DE who have not responded to iTBS or sham treatment applied to the left DLPFC. This work will develop the evidence supporting the use of LFR rTMS for …
Consuming dietary protein stimulates whole-body and muscle protein synthesis, the latter of which is typically measured using invasive primed constant infusions of stable isotopes with concurrent muscle biopsies. Alternative non-invasive methodologies have been developed (namely the indicator amino acid oxidation (IAAO) technique) to estimate the impact of protein ingestion on …
Management of acetabular (hip) fractures in the geriatric population can be very challenging because of pre-existing medical comorbidities, pre-existing osteoporosis and increased risk of mortality. The two most common treatment options for acetabular fractures are either surgical fixation using plates and screws to hold the fractured pieces in the correct …
The placement of external ventricular drainage (EVD) is a life-saving procedure used to relieve high pressures in the brain. Often performed at the bedside, a small tube (catheter) is inserted into one ventricle of the brain to drain cerebrospinal fluid and release the pressure build up. In standard practice, EVDs …
There is increasing worldwide interest in exploring stereotactic ablative body radiotherapy (SABR) for treating metastases in men with prostate cancer, including for the treatment of oligoprogressive metastases. The latter applies to a situation whereby patients with widespread metastases undergoing systemic therapy present with a solitary or a few metastatic tumors …
This study is being done to answer the following question: Is Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy or SBRT (a form of radiation therapy which can deliver high doses of radiation to the specific painful area of the body most affected by cancer, while keeping the radiation beams away from the healthy …
This study is being done to answer the following question: Are there types of early-stage vulvar cancer that require either less or more treatment than the usual approach?
