This project will examine the outstanding statistical techniques for predicting the survival of patients with colorectal cancer (CRC) (colorectal neoplasia database). The motivating clinical question that led to proposing this project is based on the general assumption that: "Right-sided colorectal cancer (CRC) has worse survival than left-sided CRC." The question is, which aspects of the patient's characteristics are responsible for this difference? This led us to BMA model selection and provide a clinician-friendly online nomogram.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and antitumour activity of AZD0754 CAR T-cell therapy in participants with metastatic prostate cancer.

Examining the effects of PeptiSleep, a plant-based sleep aid, in healthy males and females with mild to moderate sleep impairment

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of endoscopic intestinal re-cellularization therapy in individuals with type 2 diabetes (T2D) inadequately controlled on non-insulin glucose-lowering medications.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of tiragolumab plus atezolizumab compared with placebo plus atezolizumab administered to participants with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) following resection and adjuvant chemotherapy.

Dye- spray chromoendoscopy remains the recommended gold standard approach for IBD dysplasia surveillance colonoscopy however recently published European and American guidelines recommend either dye-spray or virtual chromoendoscopy can be used for surveillance. The newer Imaged Enhanced Endoscopy technologies TXI and LCI have not formally been evaluated in IBD surveillance in a randomised controlled trial setting. These modes can easily be applied during colonoscopy and if demonstrated to be effective may save time and eliminate the need for dye-spray chromoendoscopy in the future.

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel group study to compare 2 extracts of saw palmetto versus placebo on lower urinary tract symptoms and urinary frequency in 120 generally healthy participants, 45 - 80 years.

This study is an open label, prospective, experimental, randomised clinical trial. The primary aim of this study is to determine whether it is feasible to randomise vulvar cancer patients into one of two treatment arms:1) surgical groin node dissection (as delivered though either a sentinel node biopsy or inguinofemoral lymph node dissection (IFL), or 2) serial high-resolution bilateral groin ultrasound surveillance and clinical examination every 2 months.

The goal of this Phase 1 study is to investigate the safety of CYT-108, our experimental recombinant protease inhibitor drug candidate for osteoarthritis, in a population of patients suffering from osteoarthritis of the knee. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. are two doses of CYT-108, delivered 12 weeks apart, safe when injected directly into the joint? 2. does administration of CYT-108 result in a reduction in pain, stiffness, and improvement in daily physical function? Participants will either receive a placebo (Phosphate Buffer Saline, PBS) or CYT-108, and will be asked to report their pain/stiffness at weeks 1, 4, 8, 12, 16, and 26 (in a physician's office) after the initial injection, using a questionnaire to be provided by the physician. In addition to reporting the magnitude of pain, participants will also be asked about the onset of pain reduction. Researchers will compare the pain/stiffness scores between the CYT-108-treated to placebo-treated groups along the 26 week duration of the study. Participants will also receive blood draws along the course of the study, and researchers will analyze this blood for the presence of cartilage degradation product in attempt to identify "disease modification" (i.e., a reduction in cartilage degradation) in response to CYT-108 treatment.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare responses to Varicella Zoster vaccination between kidney transplant patients on different medication regimens, and their healthy co-habitants. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Are there differences in vaccination immunological responses in kidney transplant patients on different immunosuppression regimens? 2. Are there differences in vaccination immunological responses between kidney transplant patients and their healthy co-habitants? Participants will all receive a 2-dose course of SHINGRIX recombinant Zoster vaccination, and have immunological responses measured and compared at 5 timepoints between 1 week to 1 year post-vaccination.
