Filter by:This study is a interventional study that present minimal risks and constraints to evaluate the presence of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) or antibodies among individuals living in households where there is a confirmed coronavirus case in order to provide useful information on the proportion of symptomatic forms and the extent of the virus transmission in tropical regions such as French Guiana, Guadeloupe and New-Caledonia.
Primary Objective: To evaluate the clinical efficacy of sarilumab relative to the control arm in adult participants hospitalized with severe or critical Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). Secondary Objectives: - Evaluate the 28-day survival rate. - Evaluate the clinical efficacy of sarilumab compared to the control arm by clinical severity. - Evaluate changes in the National Early Warning Score 2. - Evaluate the duration of predefined symptoms and signs (if applicable). - Evaluate the duration of supplemental oxygen dependency (if applicable). - Evaluate the incidence of new mechanical ventilation use during the study. - Evaluate the duration of new mechanical ventilation use during the Study. - Evaluate the proportion of participants requiring rescue medication during the 28-day period. - Evaluate need for admission into intensive care unit. - Evaluate duration of hospitalization (days). - The secondary safety objectives of the study were to evaluate the safety of sarilumab through hospitalization (up to Day 29 if participant was still hospitalized) compared to the control arm as assessed by incidence of: - Serious adverse events. - Major or opportunistic bacterial or fungal infections in participants with grade 4 neutropenia. - Grade greater than or equal to (>=) 2 infusion related reactions. - Grade >=2 hypersensitivity reactions. - Increase in alanine transaminase (ALT) >=3X upper limit of normal (ULN) (for participants with normal baseline) or greater than 3X ULN AND at least 2-fold increase from baseline value (for participants with abnormal baseline). - Major or opportunistic bacterial or fungal infections.
Phase III, two-group multicentre, randomised controlled trial in up to 10 078 healthcare workers to determine if BCG vaccination reduces the incidence and severity of COVID-19 during the 2020 pandemic.
This study will utilize a single center internal control study design. The objective of this study is to determine the feasibility and safety of a bidirectional oxygenation PEEP generating mouthpiece when combined with oxygen by non-rebreather face mask, compared to support by oxygen non-rebreather face mask alone.
An open access study that will define and collect digital measures of coughing in multiple populations and public spaces using various means of audio data collection.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an emerging infectious disease that was first reported in Wuhan, China, and had subsequently spread worldwide. Twenty-nine percent of COVID-19 patients may develop ARDS. Based on the potential beneficial mechanisms of HFNC and PP, whether early use of prone positioning combined with HFNC can avoid the need for intubation in COVID-19 induced moderate to severe ARDS patients needs to be further investigated.
Study on adult patients positive to COVID-19 virus. After signing informed consent and undergoing screening assessments, eligible patients will record few times a day several pre-defined sentences to the Cordio App installed in a smartphone/tablet. The app will upload the vocal data to the sponsor's servers for analysis. The patient will record at hospital admittance (COVID-19 positive) until patient defined as COVID-19 negative and free of relevant clinical symptoms.
COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-2019) is a life-threatening infectious disease caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that appeared in December 2019 in the Wuhan district. COVID-19 has since affected more than 150 countries across the world and especially France. The first epidemiological data, mostly from Chinese studies, indicate that diabetes is one of the most common comorbidities, with high blood pressure, in patients with COVID-19. Moreover, the presence of diabetes at admission would be a risk factor for both ICU hospitalization and death. Nevertheless, specific data on people with diabetes and COVID-19 are fragmentary, justifying the achievement of a dedicated prospective observational study. The French nationwide CORONADO study aims to specifically describe the phenotypic characteristics of patients with diabetes admitted to hospital with COVID-19 infection. Particular attention will be devoted to glycemic control at admission (i.e. the level of HbA1c), the diabetic complications, as well as anti-diabetic and antihypertensive therapies. This study will provide answers to caregivers and patients with diabetes regarding the risk factors related to diabetes for COVID-19 prognosis. This pilot study will be used for the development of new studies and for the establishment of recommendations for the cost of care in patients with diabetes and COVID-19.
In December 2019 in the city of Wuhan in China, a series of patients with unclear pneumonia was noticed, some of whom have died of it. In virological analyses of samples from the patients' deep respiratory tract, a novel coronavirus was isolated (SARS-CoV-2). The disease spread rapidly in the city of Wuhan at the beginning of 2020 and soon beyond in China and, in the coming weeks, around the world. Initial studies described numerous severe courses, particularly those associated with increased patient age and previous cardiovascular, metabolic and respiratory diseases. A small number of the particularly severely ill patients required not only highly invasive ventilation therapy but also extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (vv-ECMO) to supply the patient's blood with sufficient oxygen. Even under maximum intensive care treatment, a very high mortality rate of approximately 80-100% was observed in this patient group. In addition, high levels of interleukin-6 (IL-6) could be detected in the blood of these severely ill patients, which in turn were associated with poor outcome. From experience in the therapy of severely ill patients with severe infections and respiratory failure, we know that treatment with a CytoSorb® adsorber can lead to a reduction of the circulating pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and thus improve the course of the disease and the outcome of the patients. Our primary goal is to investigate the efficacy of treatment with a CytoSorb® adsorber in patients with severe COVID-19 disease requiring venous ECMO over 72 hours after initiation of ECMO. The primary endpoint is the reduction of plasma interleukin-6 levels 72 hours after initiation of ECMO support. As secondary endpoints we investigate 30-day survival, vasopressor and volume requirements, lactate in terms of lactate and platelet function. As safety variables, we further investigate the levels of the applied antibiotics (usually ampicillin and sulbactam).
ACT is a randomized clinical trial to assess therapies to reduce the clinical progression of COVID-19.
