Non-operative Management for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer
This is a 5 year Phase II study to evaluate the safety of non-operative management (NOM) in patients with low rectal cancer (LRC) who achieve a complete clinical response (cCR) following chemoradiotherapy (CRT). The safety of NOM will be evaluated by assessing (i) rate of local re-growth and (ii) rate …
Mechanisms and Outcome-Prognostication for Paresthesia-based and -Free Spinal Cord Stimulation
Spinal cord stimulation (SCS) relies on stimulation of pain-relieving pathways in the spinal cord to treat chronic neuropathic pain. Traditional paresthesia-based SCS (PB-SCS) relies on providing analgesia through stimulation of spinal cord dorsal columns but it is often associated with attenuation of analgesic benefit and lack of acceptance of paresthesias. …
Study of Olaparib and Durvalumab in IDH-Mutated Solid Tumors
This is a phase 2 study of the combination of drugs olaparib and durvalumab for the treatment of isocitrate dehydrogenase or (IDH) mutated solid tumors. The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of the drug combination via overall response rate and overall disease control rate. It is …
Self-Care Training for Family Caregivers of Persons With Neurodegeneration
The purpose of this study is to assess whether an 8-week mindfulness program enhances psychological well-being (e.g., stress, depressive symptoms), biological indicators of stress (e.g., inflammation), and cognitive function (e.g., attentional ability) in primary family caregivers of persons with dementia or a related neurodegenerative disease.

The Safety and Feasibility of Radiofrequency Ablation to Treat Low-risk Thyroid Cancer
The goal of this clinical trial is to test radiofrequency ablation (RFA) in thyroid cancers ≤2 cm in diameter. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the feasibility of RFA use for low-risk thyroid cancers (≤2 cm)? Participants will undergo a set of pre-procedural scans of …
Cessation of Somatostatin Analogues After PRRT in Mid, Hind-Gut and Pancreatic Neuroendocrine Tumours
Neuroendocrine tumours (NETs) are slow growing cancers, which commonly present as metastatic incurable disease. Some neuroendocrine tumours, termed functional NETs, overproduce hormones which result in a variety of symptoms. However, approximately 75% of NETs are considered non-functional meaning that they do not result in hormone overproduction. The main treatment for …
