Ultrasound Spectroscopy as Early Indicators of Radiation Treatment Response in Prostate, Rectum and Head & Neck Cancers
Our objective in this study is to identify an optimal ultrasound spectroscopy parameter that can be used as an early predictor of pathological complete or partial response in men with prostate cancer and men and women with rectum and head and neck cancers receiving treatment radiotherapy. We have previously demonstrated …
ATrial Tachycardia PAcing Therapy in Congenital Heart
Congenital heart disease (CHD) affects approximately 1% of newborns in the US, with 25% of those affected having critical conditions requiring open heart surgery within one year of birth. Surgical and medical advances have allowed many patients to live beyond their fourth and fifth decades of life. Unfortunately, cardiac arrhythmias …
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, …
Non-Invasive Artificial Intelligence-Based Platform MonIToring Program (NIP IT!)
Patients who have undergone curative treatment may be at risk of relapse. This study will collect, annotate, and sequence biospecimens (blood, stool, and tissue) from patients across different tumor types to detect molecular residual disease (MRD) before metastases become radiographically or clinically detectable. This will allow for early cancer interception, …
Using ctDNA to Detect Minimal Residual Disease After Lung Cancer Resection
ctDNALung-Detect is an investigator-initiated single arm, multi-institution study designed to assess the ctDNA detection rate and its association with Relapse Free Survival (RFS) in operable stage T1-T4 (T3,T4 multifocal) N0M0 non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients.
Senescent Endometrial Cells in Patients With Thin Endometrial Lining
The goal of this observational study is to determine if thin endometrial lining that is unresponsive to estrogen might be associated with the presence of senescent cells in patients following long-term use of oral contraceptives. The main question it aims to answer is: Are there any senescent cells present in …
Umbrella Study for Single Patient Treatments in Oncology
The purpose of this study is to collect data on how advanced and rare cancers respond to biomarker-based treatments.
Radiation OmisSion in PAtients With CLinically Node Negative Breast Cancer Undergoing Lumpectomy
To de-escalate radiation therapy in women with breast cancer.
Visualization of Neural Targets With 3T MRI
Functional neurosurgery is dedicated to modulating aberrant neural circuits associated with a wide range of neurological conditions. Recently, technological advances in MRI have permitted marked improvements in the direct visualization of neural targets, which is necessary for the accurate targeting in functional neurosurgery procedures. This research study focuses on imaging …
Prediction of Intraventricular Hemorrhage Using Echocardiography and Near Infrared Spectroscopy
Moderate-severe intraventricular hemorrhage (msIVH, Grades II-IV) is a significant neurological complication among extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGANs, <=27+6 weeks) and is associated with long-term neuro-disabilities. In Canada, msIVH affects ~25-30% of the 1300 ELGANs born annually, with little change in incidence over last decade. Typically, it occurs between days …
