This phase II trial determines the effect of metformin extended release on the risk for developing lung cancer in overweight/obese patients that are at high-risk for developing lung cancer. Metformin is widely used to treat type II diabetes and has a long history of safety and minimal side effects. At similar dosage, the drug may have potential anti-cancer activity. Metformin use has been associated with improved survival in patients with non-small cell lung carcinoma, a specific type of lung cancer, and it has also been shown to enhance immune mobilization against tumors. This trial aims to see whether metformin extended release as a preventative treatment may lower the chance of developing lung cancer, and whether it may help patients' immune system learn ("reprogram") to lower a certain type of immune cell (called regulatory T cells) that are linked to tumor development.

Female participants with type 1 diabetes using oral contraceptives will be asked to wear a continuous glucose monitor for at least three days on two separate occasions (once during the last week of active pills and once during the no pill/placebo pill phase of the menstrual cycle). An exercise session (45 minutes of aerobic exercise at 60% VO2peak on a cycle ergometer) will take place at 5 pm on the second day of glucose monitoring.

Demonstrate the relationship between DD-cfDNA levels and HLA antibodies in blood, and the Molecular Microscope® (MMDx) Diagnostic System results in indication biopsies.

This is a multisite randomized controlled registry-based trial to evaluate the efficacy of an 8-week home-based exergaming intervention as compared to usual care on occupational satisfaction of children and youth (8-18 years old age) with spinal muscular atrophy (SMA).

The TIDE project aims to establish personal indicators for initial treatment choice for youth with first episode depression. Specifically, 100 adolescents and young adults (age 12 to 25) with untreated major depressive disorder of recent onset will be randomly allocated in 1:1 ratio to one of two evidence-based regimens for youth depression: (A) Individual cognitive-behavioural therapy; and (B) Optimized pharmacological treatment with an antidepressant. All participants will be offered active treatment for up to 1 year and follow-up for 2 years to establish short- and long-term outcomes, including change in depressive symptoms, maintenance of remission, core role functioning, achievement of educational, occupational and social milestones, and quality of life. Baseline characteristics including duration of untreated depression, pre-existing anxiety, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, substance use, symptoms of reduced interest and activity, sleep, rhythm and melody of speech, brain function, history of childhood adversity, coping style, repetitive thinking, and family history of depression and bipolar disorder will be tested as potential moderators of outcome. Characteristics that differentially predict outcomes in those allocated to initial cognitive-behavioural therapy and those allocated to initial treatment with antidepressants will be combined into a personalized allocation algorithm.

External beam radiotherapy combined with androgen deprivation therapy is a standard treatment option for localized prostate cancer. The current standard involves delivering radiotherapy uniformly throughout the prostate gland in daily fractions, five days per week, for approximately four weeks. In this study, radiotherapy will be delivered using an ultra-hypofractionated approach in three larger fractions on alternating days over one week Multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging will be used to guide focal dose escalation to parts of the gland harboring tumor, which could potentially reduce the risk of cancer recurrence compared to standard dose of radiotherapy. The aim of this study is to confirm that this approach can be delivered safely, that is, with rates of urinary and bowel side effects at 1 year of follow-up that are not significantly greater than the current standard.

This study will evaluate the effect of triple ICS/LAMA/LABA therapy with BGF MDI 320/14.4/9.6 μg on cardiopulmonary outcomes relative to LAMA/LABA therapy with GFF MDI 14.4/9.6 μg in a population with COPD and elevated cardiopulmonary risk.

This is a pilot multi-centre RCT of 40 patients (ages 18-55 years, inclusive) undergoing primary hip arthroscopy with a focal articular cartilage defect of the acetabulum to compare the effect of using autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC) in comparison to microfracture on hip function, health-related quality of life, hip pain, cartilage regeneration, health utility, and any adverse events at 2 years. Follow-up will occur at 6 weeks, 6 months, 12 months, 18 months, and 24 months post-surgery.

The goal of this feasibility study is to co-create and evaluate a theory informed, evidence-based, patient-centered healthbot aimed at helping people adhere to their varenicline regimen. The main research questions it aims to answer are: 1. What are the challenges to varenicline adherence and strategies to overcome such challenges from the perspective of service users and service providers? 2. What features of a healthbot would help improve adherence to varenicline? 3. Does a healthbot developed to improve varenicline adherence meet the implementation outcomes and increase medication adherence as well as smoking cessation? The study will be conducted using the Discover Design Build and Test framework. * In the Discover phase, a literature review, 20 service user interviews, and 20 healthcare provider interviews will help inform the challenges to varenicline adherence, strategies to overcome them using the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, and Behavior framework, and the ways in which a healthbot might help improve adherence. * In the Design, Build and Test phase, 40 participants will interact with a preliminary healthbot using the Wizard of Oz method, then provide feedback about their experiences in a follow up interview; and team members, including clinicians and researchers, will beta test and validate a more refined healthbot. In the last phase, a non-randomized single arm feasibility study, 40 participants will interact with the healthbot for 12 weeks and provide feedback about the acceptability, appropriateness, fidelity, adoption, and usability of the healthbot; and researchers will assess participants' medication adherence and smoking status.

The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of giving vepdegestrant along with PF-07220060. Vepdegestrant is studied to see if it can be a possible treatment for advanced metastatic breast cancer. This type of cancer would have spread from where it started (breast) to other parts of the body and would be tough to treat. The study is seeking for participants who have breast cancer that: * is hard to treat (advanced) and may have spread to other organs (metastatic). * is sensitive to hormonal therapy (it is called estrogen receptor positive). * is no longer responding to treatments taken before starting this study. All the participants will receive vepdegestrant and PF-07220060. Both medicines will be taken by mouth. The medicines will be taken at home. The experience of people receiving the study medicines will be studied. This will help see if the study medicines are safe and effective. Participants will continue to take vepdegestrant and PF-07220060 until: * their cancer is no longer responding, or * side effects become too severe. They will have visits at the study clinic about every 4 weeks.
