This study is researching experimental (study) drugs called pozelimab and cemdisiran. The study is focused on participants who have Geographic Atrophy (GA) caused by Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Geographic atrophy is a medical term that refers to later-stage cases of AMD which is an eye condition affecting central vision (what one sees straight ahead). The purpose of this study is to evaluate the progression rate of Geographic Atrophy in eyes of patients treated with cemdisiran alone or in combination with pozelimab compared to those treated with placebo. The study is looking at several other research questions, including: * What side effects may happen from taking the study drug(s) * How much study drug(s) are in the blood at different times * Whether the body makes antibodies against the study drug(s) (which could make the study drug(s) less effective or could lead to side effects)

This study will collect data on Canadian cancer patients that have uncommon/rare changes in their tumours, such as alterations/rearrangements in the genetic material inside cells - known as deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA, which acts as a map and gives directions to the cells on how to make other substances the body needs - because some of these changes have been found to respond to different drugs that help to stop the cancer. These rare changes occur in genes such as but not limited to ALK, EGFR, ROS1, BRAF, and NTRK which have targeted drugs in a family known as tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs), and KRAS G12C mutation, which now has a targeted inhibitor drug therapy for patients with non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). The goals for the study are to compare the natural history of such cancers and the treatment outcomes, including toxicities and patient-reported outcomes, for the different therapies.

Clear-Me is a biomarker-driven phase II study that tests whether the combination anti- lymphocyte-activation gene-3 (LAG3)/anti-programmed cell death protein 1(PD-1) inhibition Bristol-Myers Squibb (BMS986213) is superior to anti-PD-1 inhibition in patients with detectable circulating tumor deoxyribonucleic acid (ctDNA) following definitive surgery for high risk melanoma. Patients will be allocated to either Arm A or Arm B via the process of randomization. The randomization process will be stratified according to stage (Stage 2A/2B/3A/3B/3C/3D or 4), to ensure absolute balance between stage groups. The investigators are choosing only 1 stratification factor, disease stage, as the investigators consider stage being the most significant prognosticating variable. Each stage represents a biologically distinct entity with varying recurrence rate outcomes. Block randomization will be performed to ensure equal sample sizes in the combination and monotherapy arms. At least 54 patients will be included in the randomized part of the study. The investigators are expecting approximately 20% of the patients to have detectable ctDNA after definite surgery. Therefore, approximately 270 patients are expected to be enrolled and tested for ctDNA in the entire study.

Psoriasis is a chronic, systemic, inflammatory disease in which skin cells build up and develop thick, red and white scaly patches on the skin. This study will assess the change in quality of life of risankizumab treatment in adult participants with moderate to severe plaque psoriasis real-world clinical practice. Risankizumab is an approved drug for treating participants with Psoriasis. Approximately 700 participants who are prescribed risankizumab by their physician in accordance with local label will be enrolled in approximately 70 sites worldwide. Participants will receive risankizumab as prescribed by their physician according to their routine clinical practice and local label. Participants will be followed for up to 2.5 years. There is expected to be no additional burden for participants in this trial. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at a hospital or clinic according to their routine clinical practice.

The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called PF-07799933) administered as a single agent and in combination with other study medicines in people with solid tumors. This study is seeking participants who have an advanced solid tumor with a certain type of abnormal gene called "BRAF" and available treatments are no longer effective in controlling their cancer. All participants in this study will receive PF-07799933. PF-07799933 comes as a tablet to take by mouth, 2 times a day. Depending on the part of the study, participants may also receive another study medicine: * People with melanoma or other solid tumors may also receive binimetinib. Binimetinib comes as a tablet to take by mouth, 2 times a day. * People with colorectal cancer may also receive cetuximab or cetuximab and mFOLFOX6 (Chemotherapy regimen). Cetuximab will be given weekly (or every two weeks) in the clinic as a shot given in the vein or port (intravenous, IV). Participants may receive the study medicines for about 2 years. The study team will monitor how each participant is doing with the study treatment during regular visits at the study clinic.

Pragmatic hybrid type 1 effectiveness-implementation (E-I) trial of a virtual cancer rehabilitation program: The study team will conduct a multi-center hybrid type I effectiveness-implementation study to examine the clinical effectiveness and implementation potential of an 8-week multidimensional virtual cancer rehabilitation intervention (CaRE@Home) for cancer survivors with identified cancer-related impairments on level of overall disability (primary outcome) and patient reported physical and social functioning, anxiety, work status, quality of life, and physiologic changes (secondary outcomes). The study team will conduct a multi-centre pragmatic randomized controlled trial (RCT) (Vancouver, Toronto, Saint John and St. John's) to evaluate effectiveness and using the CIFR, the study team will identify potential factors that may affect successful implementation and integration of CaRE@Home in different cancer settings.

Patients with multiple myeloma experience a wide range of physical and psychological symptoms from the time of their diagnosis. Meanwhile, patients with aggressive lymphomas undergo unpredictable illness courses, resulting in goals of care conversations occurring late in the illness trajectory and aggressive care being received in the last 30 days of life. Early palliative care alongside usual cancer care has been shown to improve patient outcomes such as symptom burden, mood, and quality of life in patients with solid tumours (e.g. lung, breast or gynecological cancers), but has not been explored among patients with blood cancers to date. The goal of this clinical trial is to a brief early palliative care intervention for patients with multiple myeloma and aggressive B cell lymphoma and their caregivers (lymphoma only) attending the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre. The main goals of the study are: * To see if it is possible to apply the early palliative care intervention for patients with multiple myeloma and aggressive lymphoma and their caregivers (lymphoma only) * To see if this early palliative care intervention works well for these patients and caregivers * To compare patient and caregiver experiences with early palliative care and usual care * To explore perceptions and experiences of providing palliative care among healthcare providers involved in the care of these patients and caregivers. Patients, and their respective caregivers if participating, will be randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group will receive early palliative care in addition to usual care from their blood cancer doctor, and the other group will receive usual care from their blood cancer doctor only. All participants will be asked to fill out questionnaires about their quality of life, symptom burden, mood, and satisfaction with care throughout the study. Researchers will compare the results between the two groups to see if there are any improvements in quality of life for the patients who received early palliative care and their caregivers. Some patients and caregivers will be asked to take part in interviews at the end of the trial to answer questions about their experience taking part in the study. Some healthcare providers who care for these patients will also be asked to take part in interviews at the end of the trial to describe their perceptions and experiences of providing palliative care. The researchers will use the results of this study to guide in the development of a larger clinical trial.
