Filter by:Phase 1 randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) first-in-human study in healthy subjects. Safety and tolerability assessments will be conducted, and blood samples will be taken pre-dose and at several time points post-dose for pharmacokinetic (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD) analysis.
Since the end of 2019, Egypt and the whole world have been suffering from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), since the emergence of this new pandemic, there have been more than 97 million confirmed cases of COVID-19 patients and two million death globally; around 160 thousand of these cases are in Egypt. Recent clinical investigations found a high incidence of thrombotic complications in these patients, even with the standard anticoagulant thromboprophylaxis.Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) causes a hypercoagulable state. Among the pathological sequel of COVID-19 infection, is the presence of a micro-thrombi in the pulmonary circulation which was shown in several autopsy studies. This thrombosis is believed to contribute to gas exchange impairment among patients with COVID-19 infection. Some observational studies have shown anticoagulation benefits with reduced mortality, mainly in patients requiring mechanical ventilation. However, these findings remain uncertain and need to be validated in further studies. This study is performed to evaluate whether therapeutic anticoagulation could improve COVID-19 patients' clinical outcomes compared to prophylactic anticoagulation in terms of improving gas exchange, reducing the need to maintain mechanical ventilation, shortening hospital admission period and mortality rate as well as recovering D-dimmer levels to its normal values.
In this study we will describe the factors associated with missed virtual visit appointments in an academic children´s hospital during the covid-19 pandemic and we will develop a predictive model that serves as the basis for improving the Telehealth Program.
This study will explore how a well-known probiotic strain L. reuteri DSM 17938 impacts SARS-CoV-2 specific antibody response upon and after infection in healthy adults.
Since the end of 2019, Egypt and the whole world have been suffering from the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, which is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Tocilizumab play role among the unique therapeutic alternatives for the management of cytokine release syndrome (CRS), a life-threatening complication of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) - T cell therapy. CRS occurs as a result of uncontrolled immune activation with release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Up till now, clinical trial and expertise with tocilizumab in COVID-19 patients has been limited. Despite preliminary encouraging results, recent studies suffered from limitations such as the absence of consistent treatment outline, a short post-treatment follow-up, and the absence of a comparison group. A recent study discussed the possible beneficial effect of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) inhibitors in severe COVID-19. Specifically, TNF may aggravate lymphopenia through direct killing via TNF/TNFR1 signaling in T cells, and T cell dysfunction reveals an important yet underestimated target for immunomodulatory therapeutic approaches. Accordingly, anti-TNF may be considered as an encouraging therapeutic option in severe COVID-19. These promising clinical findings encouraged us to use infliximab (IFX), a chimeric monoclonal anti-TNF antibody, as an experimental therapy in patients with moderate and severe COVID-19 in the absence of IBD. In this study, we compare the outcomes of a large cohort of patients with moderate and severe COVID-19 pneumonia treated with tocilizumab in addition to standard management, with those of concomitantly hospitalized patients who received infliximab and tocilizumab in addition to standard management.
The main objective of the present study is to observe the short-term effects of respiratory muscle training applied by telerehabilitation on quality of life and exercise tolerance in people who have had the COVID-19 disease. As secondary objectives, the effects on respiratory muscles strength/tolerance, pulmonary function and psychological and cognitive factors.
This study aimed to discuss the neuroimaging findings and indications, epidemiological data, laboratory values, and the relationship of these variables with mortality in patients with COVID-19.
The overall goal of this study is to evaluate the association of quarantine measures for COVID-19 and perceived anxiety, stigma and loneliness and to evaluate the efficacy of interventions in reducing anxiety, loneliness and perception of stigma induced by self-isolation during the outbreak. Specific Aims: In the proposed study, participants will include members of the United States general population who will be randomly assigned to either (a) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak, (b) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak AND a video aimed at encouraging the use of a digital device (i.e. not in person contact) to meet with friends, (c) a vignette to learn about the COVID-19 outbreak AND a video aimed at sensitizing participants to COVID-19 related stigma, (d) Control arm. Web-based self-report questionnaires will be conducted to compare interventions and control groups. The short and low-cost online module will allow recruitment of a large sample of people. Hypotheses: (1) the video-based intervention groups will demonstrate lower rates of anxiety and loneliness than vignette and control groups, (2) the video-based group that presents an individual with COVID-19 will demonstrate lower rate of stigma than other groups.
The purpose of this Phase 2 study is to test safety, efficacy, and tolerability of an oral preparation of VB-201 in patients with severe COVID-19
The ongoing pandemic of SARS CoV-2 virus is calling for effective preventive and theraputic interventions. Vitamin D has been shown to play immunemodulatory functions in human. Low vitamin D levels have been linked to increased susciptability to infections especially the acute respiratory infections. This randomised controlled study aims to explore the effect of vitamin D administration on the outcome of SARS- CoV2 virus
