Residents in Copper Cliff may have noticed white trailers set up in front of the McClelland Arena. The trailers are a temporary examination centre set up by StatsCan for the next six weeks. Around 850 households in Sudbury have been randomly selected to participate in the Canadian Health Measures Survey. StatsCan survey Around 850 households in Sudbury have been randomly selected to participate in the Canadian Health Measures Survey. (Lyndsay Aelick/CTV News) The data from the survey is used by researchers to understand the relationship between disease risk factors and risk conditions such as obesity, hypertension, cardiovascular disease and more. 'We're just looking to get a better idea of the overall health of Canadians,' said site manager Kelsey Wolfenden. Participants are anywhere between one and 79 years of age. 'We go through some questionnaires about the consumption of fish and shellfish, water habits,' Wolfenden said. Measurements, blood pressure 'We do body measurements, height, weight, and waist circumference. We also take a blood pressure measurement. And we do also collect blood and urine samples for analysis.' The survey is now in its eighth cycle and will continue until spring 2027. The goal is to have a total of 400 participants. In all, 16 locations across Canada have been selected to participate in the survey and officials want to remind everyone that StatsCan takes the privacy of Canadians very seriously. 'All of the information is confidential,' Wolfenden said. 'When the participants complete the survey, they are also provided the results … Some of the results are immediately available, and then everything else we will either send to them or is uploaded to a confidential portal where they can access the results.'

Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline Appears Robust With 50+ Key Pharma Companies Actively Working in the Therapeutics Segment
DelveInsight's, 'Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline Insight 2025' report provides comprehensive insights about 50+ companies and 50+ pipeline drugs in Systemic Sclerosis pipeline landscape. It covers the Systemic Sclerosis pipeline drug profiles, including clinical and nonclinical stage products. It also covers the Systemic Sclerosis pipeline therapeutics assessment by product type, stage, route of administration, and molecule type. It further highlights the inactive pipeline products in this space. Discover the latest drugs and treatment options in the Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline. Dive into DelveInsight's comprehensive report today! @ Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline Outlook Key Takeaways from the Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline Report In June 2025, Novartis Pharmaceuticals announced a study is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and tolerability of rapcabtagene autoleucel (administered once following lymphodepletion) in participants with severe refractory diffuse cutaneous systemic sclerosis relative to rituximab. In June 2025, GlaxoSmithKline conducted a study of an ongoing randomized controlled clinical study 218224 (Parent Study). The OLE study will describe how well tolerated belimumab will be long term, and whether it might continue to slow progression of lung function decline, slow overall disease progression and improve quality of life. DelveInsight's Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline report depicts a robust space with 50+ active players working to develop 50+ pipeline therapies for Systemic Sclerosis treatment. The leading Systemic Sclerosis Companies such as Eicos Sciences, Beijing Continent Pharmaceutical, Kyowa Kirin, Cytori Therapeutics, Corbus Pharmaceuticals, Zenyaku Kogyo, Sanofi, Bayer, ASKA Pharmaceutical, Emerald Health Pharmaceuticals, United Therapeutics, Cumberland Pharmaceuticals, ILTOO Pharma, Horizon Pharmaceuticals, Janssen Biotech, Gesynta Pharma, Certa Therapeutics, Pfizer, Vicore Pharma, Seagen, CSL Behring, arGentis Pharmaceuticals, Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma, Kadmon Pharmaceuticals, GlaxoSmithKline, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Camurus, Regeneron Pharmaceuticals, Castle Creek Biosciences, Talaris Therapeutics, Viela Bio, Formation Biologics, Horizon Therapeutics, Chemomab Therapeutics, AnaMar, Atlantic Healthcare, D&D Pharmatech, Acceleron Pharma, Riptide Bioscience, Timber Pharmaceuticals, Tvardi Therapeutics, Accuitis Pharmaceuticals, AKL Research and Development, iBio, Blade Therapeutics, Cantargia, BriaCell Therapeutics, Leadiant Biosciences and others. Promising Systemic Sclerosis Pipeline Therapies such as Divozilimab, Avenciguat (BI 685509), Nintedanib, GSK2330811, Riociguat (Adempas, BAY63-2521), Bosentan, Imatinib mesylate, Belimumab, Rituximab, and others. Stay ahead with the most recent pipeline outlook for Systemic Sclerosis. Get insights into clinical trials, emerging therapies, and leading companies with DelveInsight @ Systemic Sclerosis Treatment Drugs Systemic Sclerosis Emerging Drugs Profile Iloprost: Eicos Sciences Iloprost is a stable analogue of PGI2 and a potent prostacyclin (IP) receptor agonist. By mimicking PGI2, it is a vasodilator and inhibitor of platelet activation and fibrosis. Iloprost stimulates generation of cAMP by binding to the IP receptor, thereby affecting phospholipase activity and cytosolic calcium levels in platelets, fibroblasts, and endothelial cells. It is a potent vasodilator and platelet inhibitor with anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrotic effects being developed and investigated in Phase III stage of development for the treatment of digital ischemic episodes in people with Systemic Sclerosis (SSc). ECCS 50: Cytori therapeutics ECCS-50 (Cytori stem cell therapy) is a new treatment intended for the treatment of moderate to severe hand problems in people with scleroderma. It involves taking stem cells (a cell with the potential to become any cell type) from patient's fat tissue and reinjecting these cells into the hands. ECCS 50 are adipose derived stem and regenerative cells (ADRCs) taken from the patient's own tissue and prepared using Cytori's cellulation system before administration. ADRCs can be used to repair and regenerate a range of damaged or diseased tissue types by differentiation of the ASRCs along the specific cell lineage, thereby replacing the damaged or missing tissue. Lenabasum (JBT-101): Corbus Pharmaceuticals Lenabasum is a novel, oral, small molecule designed to provide an alternative to immunosuppressive treatments for inflammatory or fibrotic diseases. Lenabasum binds to and activates the cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2), which is preferentially expressed on activated immune cells, to resolve inflammation and limit fibrosis. Data from animal models and human clinical studies suggest that lenabasum can reduce expression of genes and proteins involved in inflammation and fibrosis. In clinical testing to date, lenabasum has acceptable safety and tolerability profiles without evidence of immunosuppression. EHP-101: Emerald Health Pharmaceuticals EHP-101 is an oral formulation of VCE-004.8, a synthetic aminoquinone derivative of CBD with dual peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ) and cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2) agonist activity. Both receptors are therapeutic targets for SSc. EHP-101 also modulates the hypoxia inducible factor (HIF) pathway, expanding the rationale for its development as a novel SSc drug. It is currently in phase II stage of development and is being developed by Emerald Health Pharmaceuticals.
