Post-operative Changes Study
The goal of this observational pilot study is to evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the protocol to explore the functional post-operative trajectory in a developmentally and neurologically impaired pediatric population. The main objectives of the study are: Objective 1: To evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the study protocol …
Predicting IBD Treatment Outcomes With Gut Microbiome Analysis
The goal of this prospective observational study is to determine if specific microbiome signatures can predict therapeutic responses in adult patients with Crohn's disease (CD), a form of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), living in British Columbia, Canada. The main questions this study seeks to answer are: Can microbiome signatures across …
Prednisone for CRPS in Distal Radius Fracture
Wrist fractures are the most prevalent adult fracture. Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) is a common complication that can occur, leading to permanent disability and is costly to the patient and healthcare system. In addition, amidst the opioid epidemic, the risk of increased opioid use in patients with CRPS prompts …
Effect of Peripheral Vestibular Disease Location on Outcomes Following Home-based Virtual Reality Vestibular Therapy
This parallel-group randomized controlled trial aims to determine if the location of the lesion(s) in the vestibular system (unilateral versus bilateral, lateral semi-circular canal versus otolith) impacts the effectiveness of adjunct take-home head-mounted display (HMD) virtual reality (VR) therapy in improving patient symptomatology. Fifty patients meeting inclusion criteria will be …
Investigating the Effects of Atezolizumab in People Whose Tumour DNA or RNA Indicates Possible Sensitivity
This study will investigate the effects of atezolizumab on select cancer types in people whose analysis of tumour DNA and RNA indicates they may be sensitive to atezolizumab. This study aims to determine if the information from the cancer genome analysis corresponds with the effects of atezolizumab on individuals and …
Integrating Pediatric Pharmacogenomic Testing Into the Canadian Health Care System
This project addresses the problem of adverse drug reactions in the three most frequently prescribed therapeutic classes of drugs in children: antibiotics, analgesics, and mental health medications. We will conduct pilot testing of a pharmacogenomic testing panel and study how the tests and generated test results are utilized and understood …

Its symptoms, including daily facial pain and headache, an inability to breath through the nose and complete smell loss, regularly impair one's ability to work and to enjoy and participate in …
The GBA Multimodal Study in Parkinson's Disease
This study plans to analyze the molecular and clinical mechanisms of the relationship between the GBA mutations and Parkinson's disease. This will be assessed through the use of advanced neuroimaging techniques called PET (positron emission tomography) to study the accumulation of the tau protein and the dysfunction of acetylcholine and …
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. …
BREAST ADM Trial for Alloplastic Breast Reconstruction
This study is a randomized single blinded prospective clinical trial comparing the surgical outcomes of four different acellular dermal matrixes (ADMs) after primary breast reconstruction. ADMs are used in conjunction with tissue expanders or breast implants to reinforce the recreated breast pocket. Currently, 4 different ADMS are commercially available: AlloDerm, …
