HDClarity: a Multi-site Cerebrospinal Fluid Collection Initiative to Facilitate Therapeutic Development for Huntington's Disease
HDClarity will seek at least 2500 research participants at different stages of Huntington's disease (HD). The primary objective is to collect a high quality CSF sample for evaluation of biomarkers and pathways that will enable the development of novel treatments for HD. The secondary objective is to generate a high …
Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection Consortium
The purpose of the Pancreatic Cancer Early Detection (PRECEDE) Consortium is to conduct research on multiple aspects of early detection and prevention of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by establishing a multisite cohort of individuals with family history of PDAC and/or individuals carrying pathogenic/likely pathogenic germline variants (PGVs) in genes linked …
Effect of Fetal Aortic Valvuloplasty on Outcomes
In one of the most severe congenital heart defects, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), the left ventricle is underdeveloped and the prognosis is worse than in most other heart defects. The underdevelopment can occur gradually during fetal growth caused by a narrowing of the aortic valve. At some international centers, …
TrialNet Pathway to Prevention of T1D
Rationale The accrual of data from the laboratory and from epidemiologic and prevention trials has improved the understanding of the etiology and pathogenesis of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Genetic and immunologic factors play a key role in the development of T1DM, and characterization of the early metabolic abnormalities in …
The Canadian Children Inflammatory Bowel Disease Network (CIDsCaNN)
The initial network clinical study will be an inception cohort study in children with IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease) rigorously phenotyped and prospectively followed. Focusing on a prospective, inception cohort of Canadian children of widely varied racial origins provides a unique opportunity to explore environmental risk factors early in life and …
Surgery Versus Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Stage I Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer
The development of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for the treatment of stage I non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has inspired a close partnership between thoracic surgery and radiation oncology.
