The purpose of this study is to assess and compare the conditions for tracheal intubation obtained with Modified Time Principle Induction (MTPI) and that obtained with classic induction (CI). This study will compare the efficiency of tracheal intubation with the two induction techniques, as well as evaluate for potential adverse events.

The primary objective of this study is to compare the effect of treatment with olpasiran, to placebo, on the risk for coronary heart disease death (CHD death), myocardial infarction, or urgent coronary revascularization in participants with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) and elevated Lipoprotein(a).

This is an open-label, non-randomized, multicenter, Phase 1/2a study to evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of Allocetra-OTS in the treatment of advanced solid tumor malignancy as monotherapy or in combination with an anti-PD-1 therapy.

IASP defines "pain" as "an unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with or resembling that associated with actual or potential tissue damage". In some patients, pain is one of the reasons they initially consult a doctor and will be strongly related to cancer itself, is connected to receiving the cancer diagnosis, and therefore may become an uncertain threat of disease recurrence in cancer survivors. Neuropathic pain is the most prevalent type of pain, but a mixed type of pain is also common, reflecting the complexity of the pain experience. There is increasing evidence in oncology that quality of life and survival are linked to early and effective palliative care, including pain management. Although improvements have been seen, undertreatment of pain remains a problem in a significant subset of cancer patients. Regarding the interventional options in cancer pain, multiple possibilities range from pharmacological modulation, the use of modalities or physical means, as well as the practice of physical exercise as a mechanism of pain modulation, which has been established according to the background grade of recommendation. Regarding education in neuroscience, this has gained momentum in chronic pain since previous interventions have generated recommendations to include neurocognitive interventions in pain processes. Therefore, it seeks to determine the effectiveness of a neuroscience education program compared to conventional treatment in adults with cancer pain in biopsychosocial variables.

This research is being done to assess the therapeutic efficacy and safety of a promising regimen (Venetoclax combined with Azacitidine and Harringtonine) in patients with secondary AML This study involves the following: Venetoclax combined with Azacitidine and Harringtonine

Phase 2 clinical trial on the addition of dutasteride to combined androgen blockade (CAB) therapy in recurrent and/or metastatic (R/M) salivary duct carcinoma (SDC) patients. The study will include two cohorts of patients: Cohort A, which comprises ADT-naïve patients, and Cohort B, which comprises ADT-resistant patients.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility to treat localized prostate cancer diagnosed with MRI and targeted/systematic biopsies, with IRE in comparison with conventional radical treatments with the primary objective to locally control the tumour with a minimum of side effects.

The researchers propose to develop a Canada-wide, adaptive randomized clinical platform trial to assess the effectiveness of various interventions in patients with lingering symptoms of COVID-19 ("Long COVID"). Participants will be randomized initially to 1 of 3 arms, including placebo (control) and 2 interventions. Because this is an adaptive trial, arms can be dropped if found to be ineffective and new arms can be added. Interventions will last for 2 months and participants will be followed for an additional 4 months (6 months total). Approximately 800-1000 patients with Long COVID will be recruited across Canada. Results from this trial will accelerate the availability of high-quality, real-time evidence and solutions to enable Canada to improve the clinical care of patients with Long COVID.

A Randomized, Double-Blind, Multi-Center Phase II Clinical Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of HLX07 (Recombinant Anti-EGFR Humanized Monoclonal Antibody Injection) + Serplulimab (HLX10, Recombinant Anti-PD-1 Humanized Monoclonal Antibody) +Chemotherapy Versus Placebo + Serplulimab + Chemotherapy in First-Line Treatment of Patients with Recurrent or Metastatic Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)

Hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), a serious brain injury in infants, occurs in 2-9 per 1,000 infants after delivery. Up to 60% of infants diagnosed with HIE die and 25% of the survivors have long-term neurologic deficits. Risk factors for HIE include abnormal fetal heart tracings and intrauterine infection. Therapeutic whole-body cooling of infants with HIE is standard of care after delivery, with only 7-9 at-risk infants needing to be treated to prevent one infant from suffering long-term neurologic deficits. However, animal studies show that therapeutic cooling may be more beneficial when given in utero at the time of an insult, rather than after delivery. Though therapeutic cooling in utero has yet to be explored in humans, an established in utero fluid delivery system during labor-amnioinfusion-provides a unique opportunity for in utero intervention. We propose a pilot randomized controlled trial to test the feasibility and preliminary effects of room temperature amnioinfusion on tissue injury including HIE.
