A Study to Learn About the Medicine Called Nirmatrelvir Used in Combination With Ritonavir in People with Weakened Immune Systems or at Increased Risk for Poor Outcomes who are Hospitalized Due to Severe COVID-19
This is a prospective longitudinal cohort study to evaluate the impact of COVID-19 vaccination and booster on maternal and infant immunity against COVID-19 variants over time.
This is a phase 2 double-blind, randomized study of PBI-0451(Pomotrelvir) in nonhospitalized symptomatic adults with COVID-19. PBI-0451(Pomotrelvir) is a new chemical entity and inhibitor of the main protease of coronaviruses, including the SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19 disease. This study is designed to evaluate the antiviral activity, safety, and efficacy of orally administered PBI-0451(Pomotrelvir) compared with placebo.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety, extent of the side effects, and immune responses of the study vaccine (called variant-adapted BNT162b2 RNA-based vaccine) in healthy children. The trial is divided into 5 individual studies or substudies based on age group and prior history of COVID-19 vaccinations. All participants in each of the 5 sub-studies will receive study vaccine as a shot depending on what group they are in. - Substudy A design: Phase 1 includes participants 6 months through less than 4 years 3 months of age who have not received a previous coronavirus vaccination (COVID-19 vaccine naïve) and will receive 3 doses of study vaccine as their initial series, followed by a fourth dose of study vaccine. Phase 2/3 includes participants 6 months through less than 5 years of age who have not received a previous coronavirus vaccination (COVID-19 vaccine naive) and will receive 1, 2, or 3 doses of study vaccine, depending on what group they are in. - Substudy B design: includes participants 6 months through less than 5 years of age who have either received 2 or 3 prior doses of BNT162b2 and will receive study vaccine as their third or fourth dose. - Substudy C design: Phase 1 includes participants 6 months through less than 5 years of age who have received 3 prior doses of BNT162b2 and will receive study vaccine as their fourth dose. - Substudy D design: includes participants 5 through less than12 years of age who have received 2 or 3 prior doses of BNT162b2 and will receive study vaccine as their third or fourth dose. - Substudy E design: includes participants 2 through less than 12 years of age who have not received a previous coronavirus vaccination (COVID-19 vaccine naive) and will receive a single dose of study vaccine.
As no curative treatment for SARS-CoV-2 is currently available, most public health measures to contain the pandemic are based on preventing the spread of the pathogen. The virus is transmitted by the respiratory route and by direct contact with contaminated surfaces and subsequent contact with nasal, oral or ocular mucosa. Although patients with symptomatic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been the main source of transmission, observations suggest that asymptomatic and incubating patients also have the ability to transmit SARS-CoV-2. Angiotensin II converting enzyme (ACE2) is the main cellular receptor for SARS-CoV-2, which interacts with the spike protein to facilitate its entry. ACE2 receptors are highly expressed in the oral cavity and present at high levels in oral epithelial cells. The mean expression of ACE2 was higher in the tongue compared to that in other oral tissues and it has been found to be higher in the minor salivary glands than in the lungs. These findings strongly suggest that the oral cavity and specifically the saliva may be a high-risk route for SARS-CoV-2 infection. Thus, strategies reducing salivary viral load could contribute to reduce the risk of transmission. Furthermore, studies using macaques as animal models have shown that SARS-CoV persists for two days in oral mucous membranes before its diffusion to the lower respiratory tract. This offers an interesting preventive and therapeutic window of opportunity for the control of this disease. For this reason, the use of mouthwashes with antiseptics that have virucidal activity can be a simple preventive strategy that could easily be applied both by infected patients before being examined by sanitary personnel and in the general population. This study is a multi-centered, blinded, parallel-group, placebo-controlled randomised clinical trial that tests the effect of three different mouthwashes (chlorhexidine 0,12%, chlorhexidine 0,2%, and Cymenol -ZnCl2) in the salivary viral load of SARS-CoV-2 measured by qPCR at three different timepoints. A fourth group of patients using a distilled water mouth rinse is used as a control. Viral particles per ml of saliva are quantified at baseline and 5, 15 and 60 minutes after a 1-minute mouth rinse with the antiseptic or water. The study aims to test whether any of these standard oral antiseptics appear to diminish viral load in saliva and could therefore be used as a strategy to reduce transmission risk in clinical and social settings.
Effects of diaphragmatic breathing exercise with and without resistance exercise program on functional capacity and activity of daily living in post covid patients
This is a randomized controlled trial of the efficacy of an individualized, progressive, exercise program (strength, cardiovascular, and breathing exercises) in recovering people from the post-COVID-19 syndrome (i.e., patients who present symptoms >12 weeks once the acute phase of the disease is over).
This clinical trial will be a blinded, randomised study to determine the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of a second booster dose of SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in adults enrolled over two consecutive stages. Stage 1 will commence at the time of study approval and transition to stage 2 once bivalent vaccines are approved and available in Australia.
The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of Spikogen vaccine when used as a 3rd or 4th dose booster in adults who have been previously vaccinated with any Covid-19 vaccine types, including mRNA vaccine, adenoviral vector vaccines, recombinant protein vaccines, or inactivated virus vaccines.
