The purpose of this study is to assess the disease-modifying properties and long-term effect of dupilumab in participants with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE).
The purpose of this study is to understand and document the experiences of patients who live at least 60 minutes outside of the Lower Mainland and who are traveling to Vancouver for a solid organ transplant. The research team aims to document the psychological, social, emotional and cultural impact for patients leaving their communities to access care in Vancouver. The study will also capture the associated out-of-pocket costs that these transplant patients incur before, during and after the transplant operation.
The purpose of this study is to collect biospecimens (fecal, urine, blood) and clinical data to serve as a resource for future research on Parkinson’s disease and other movement disorders. The careful collection, storage and retrieval of biospecimens and medical information for research projects are critical for improving understanding of healthy development and disease mechanisms and the subsequent development of effective treatments. Biospecimens from this biobank will be made available for ethically-approved studies.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of JNJ-78934804 as compared to guselkumab and golimumab in participants with moderately to severely active ulcerative colitis who have had an inadequate initial response, loss of response or intolerance to one or more approved advanced therapy.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety via assessment of treatment-emergent adverse events and efficacy of RBX2660 preventing recurrent episodes of CDI measured at eight weeks after treatment.
Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) affects 37,000 patients in Canada annually. Even with successful treatment, approximately 25 per cent of patients develop recurrent CDI within eight weeks. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether the extension of initial treatment from 14 to 28 days with a tapering dose of vancomycin will help prevent recurrent CDI in the future.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GS-9674 in adults with primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC).
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of GS-9674 in adults with primary biliary cholangitis (PBC).
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate safety, efficacy and tolerability of treatment with sofosbuvir (Sovaldi®)/velpatasvir (Epclusa®; SOF/VEL) for 12 weeks in adults with chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection who are on dialysis for End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD).
The study is to evaluate the long-term safety of oral GED-0301 (mongersen) in subjects with Crohn's Disease.
The purpose of the trial is to determine the safety and efficacy of RPC1063 in patients diagnosed with moderate to severe ulcerative colitis.
The primary objectives of this study are to evaluate the effect of Obeticholic Acid treatment compared to placebo on 1) histological improvement and 2) liver-related clinical outcomes in patients with non-cirrhotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) with liver fibrosis.
This is a Phase 2, open-label,randomized, multiple dose, varied administration regimen study with 2 parts (Parts A and B) in Subjects Infected with Chronic Hepatitis B Virus
To evaluate the real-life effect of adalimumab on psychological distress/depression symptoms in moderate-to-severe Ulcerative Colitis (UC) patients.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether RPC1063 is effective in the treatment of Ulcerative Colitis (UC).
This three-year study (participants with chronic kidney disease [CKD] or cirrhosis will be followed for five years) multicenter study is being done to follow participants who received at least one dose of grazoprevir (MK-5172) in a previous study to determine if they remain hepatitis C virus (HCV)-RNA negative over time, and to determine if they have developed antiviral resistance. The study will also evaluate long-term adverse events in this population.
Hospitalization for kidney stones in the Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) population is common, particularly among Crohn's patients who had a small bowel resection. This patient population experiences a lifetime occurrence of kidney stone formation as high as 25% accompanied with a high rate of recurrence (the typical rate of stone formation is ~10% in the non IBD population). Giving oral calcium is used to bind oxalate in the intestine in an attempt to reduce the amount of oxalate that is absorbed into the body and to reduce urinary oxalate levels.
This non-interventional clinical study will be conducted to prospectively collect serial plasma samples from subjects with chronic HBV infection who are initiating antiviral therapy. These samples will be used to estimate clinical utility endpoints for the Aptima HBV Quant assay, which is used as an aid in the management of HBV-infected patients undergoing HBV antiviral therapy.
This is a registry study to evaluate the long-term safety and effectiveness of adalimumab in patients with moderately to severely active UC who are treated as recommended in the product label.
This Registry is designed to provide long term clinical and virologic follow up in subjects who have achieved sustained virologic response (SVR) while participating in a previous Gilead sponsored Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) study. This long term follow up study is observational and no treatment is provided for HCV.
