Tacrolimus Associated Tremors in Liver Transplantation: Immediate-Release Versus Extended-Release Formulations
This is a randomized open label study in de novo liver transplant recipients that aims to compare the risk of tacrolimus induced tremors with once daily extended-release formulation, Envarsus, versus the twice daily immediate-release formulation. Both formulations of tacrolimus are currently approved for the prevention of rejection in liver transplant …
Mindfulness for Pediatric Chest Pain
The goal of this clinical trial is to test mindfulness practices in children with idiopathic chest pain, which is chest pain that does not have a known cause. The main question this study aims to answer is whether children who experience idiopathic chest pain are able to follow a mindfulness …
CSF Analysis in EGFR Mutant Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer With Leptomeningeal Disease
Leptomeningeal disease is malignant seeding of the leptomeninges and presents with a variety of symptoms frequently impacting quality of life. With improvement in treatment options, rates of leptomeningeal disease are increasing and currently found in up to 9% of EGFR mutant NSCLC. Systemic therapy may be more effective if it …
In-clinic Endoscopic Polypectomy for Chronic Sinusitis With Nasal Polyps
Chronic rhinosinusitis, also called chronic sinusitis, is a very common life-long disease affecting over 5% of the Canadian population.

Sustained Release Lidocaine for the Treatment of Postoperative Pain
In this study, the investigators are testing a new formulation of lidocaine for its suitability in managing postoperative pain after pelvic (circumcision, inguinal, scrotal), perineal (hemorrhoidectomy) or perianal (fistulotomy) incisions. The new formulation ST-01 is a sustained release lidocaine formulation and is expected to provide pain relief over multiple days. …
Exercise & Brain Energetics in PD
There is increasing evidence that the usage and delivery of energy to the brain, known as brain energetics, is altered in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). This project will explore whether exercise has a positive impact on brain energetics using functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Positron Emission Tomography (PET) …
Below the Belt: Non-invasive Neuromodulation to Treat Bladder, Bowel, and Sexual Dysfunction Following Spinal Cord Injury
Recent findings have demonstrated that electrical stimulation to the spinal cord (i.e. implanted electrodes) can significantly recover bladder, bowel, and sexual function after injury. While promising, a major drawback is that individuals must undergo a highly invasive and expensive surgical procedure to implant the stimulator on top of the spinal …
Intravesical Photodynamic Therapy ("PDT") in BCG-Unresponsive/Intolerant Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer ("NMIBC") Patients
This is a phase II, open-label, single-arm, multi-center Study conducted in Canada and the United States. Patients with NMIBC CIS (with or without resected papillary disease (Ta, T1)) that are considered Bacillus Calmette-Guerin ("BCG")-Unresponsive or who are intolerant to BCG therapy. BCG-Unresponsive is at least one of the following: At …
Osimertinib Then Chemotherapy in EGFR-mutated Lung Cancer With Osimertinib Third-line Rechallenge
This phase II single-armed study will examine the clinical utility of retreating patients with osimertinib, in the third-line, following first-line treatment with osimertinib and second-line treatment with platinum and pemetrexed chemotherapy. The current standard of care for first-line Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) mutated Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (aNSCLC) …
Ferric Citrate and Chronic Kidney Disease in Children
We will conduct a 12-month, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess the effects of therapy with ferric citrate (FC) on changes in intact FGF23 levels (iFGF23, primary endpoint) in 160 pediatric patients (80 in each of the two arms) aged 6-17 years of either sex with chronic kidney disease (CKD) …
