Cannabidiol for Bipolar Depression (CBD-BD)
Bipolar disorder (BD) is a lifelong condition characterized by recurrent episodes of depression and (hypo)mania. Periods of chronic and recurring depressive episodes are more common and can be severely disabling. Effective treatments exist; however, a significant portion of bipolar depressed patients do not respond to or have difficulty tolerating many …
Selective Early Medical Treatment of Patent Ductus Arteriosus in Extremely Low Gestational Age Infants: A Pilot RCT
Background: Among preterm infants, those born at a gestational age less than 26 weeks are considered the most vulnerable with a high risk of short- and long-term health problems that include chronic lung disease, brain bleeds, gut injury, kidney failure and death. Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is the most common …
A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Anti-Tumor Activity of RO7589831 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors
This is a first-in-human, Phase I, open-label, multicenter, dose-escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity of RO7589831 monotherapy, and in combination with pembrolizumab, in participants with microsatellite instability (MSI) and/or deficient mismatch repair (dMMR) advanced solid tumors. RO7589831 is an oral …
HCRN Endoscopic Versus Shunt Treatment of Hydrocephalus in Infants
Hydrocephalus is a potentially debilitating neurological condition that primarily affects babies under a year of age and has traditionally been treated by inserting a shunt between the brain and the abdomen. A newer endoscopic procedure offers hope of shuntfree treatment that may reduce complications over a child's life, but it …
Diesel Exhaust Induces Glucocorticoid Resistance
The investigators are studying the effects of exposure to diesel exhaust on lung inflammation in the presence and absence of an inhaled corticosteroid. Although data is mixed, studies show that asthmatics have increased lung inflammation and worse symptoms during periods of higher air pollution despite taking their anti-inflammatory corticosteroid medication. …
Comparing Rapid Micro-Induction and Standard Induction of Buprenorphine/Naloxone for Treatment of Opioid Use Disorder
The current first-line treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD) in Canada is buprenorphine/naloxone (bup/nx). The standard induction method of bup/nx requires patients to be abstinent from opioids and thereby experience withdrawal symptoms prior to induction, which can be a major barrier in starting treatment. Rapid micro-induction (also known as micro-dosing, …
Differences by Sex and Genotype in the Effects of Stress on Executive Functions
The aim of this project is to test the effects of an environmental factor (mild stress) on prefrontal cortex (PFC) and the cognitive functions that depend on PFC (collectively called executive functions [EFs]), and to test our predictions concerning how those effects differ by biological factors (hormones and genotype). To …
A Study of the Effect of ZT-01 on Night-time Hypoglycemia in Type 1 Diabetes
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the effect of the study drug (ZT-01) on low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in adults with type 1 diabetes (T1D) who have been having low blood sugars ("hypos") at night. ZT-01 increases the amount of a hormone called glucagon during low …
Rate of Tranexamic Acid Administration on Blood Pressure (RateTXA) Study.
Tranexamic acid is a well-established treatment for post-partum hemorrhage. This study aims to examine the effect of tranexamic acid administration rates on blood pressure changes over 1 minute compared to 10 minutes in healthy pregnant patients scheduled for cesarean delivery.
Evaluating Sexual Psychoeducation in Couples With Sexual Desire Discrepancy
Sexual desire discrepancy (SDD) occurs when partners have different levels of sexual desire and are distressed by it.
