Filter by:Initial case reports and cohort studies have described many clinical characteristics of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), an emerging infectious disorder caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). In early COVID-19 studies, some evidence has been provided that electrolyte disorders may also be present upon patients' presentation, including sodium, potassium, chloride and calcium abnormalities the aim of the study is Identification of elements that affect COVID-19 pathology to improve survival and decrease mortality rate.
The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK), and explore the mechanistic and clinical effect of alvelestat (an oral neutrophil elastase inhibitor) orally twice per day for 10 days added to standard of care in adult patients (≥18 years) with COVID-19 respiratory disease.
The primary objective of this study is to characterize the impact of inhaled remdesivir (RDV) on severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral load in participants with early stage coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
During the COVID-19 pandemic, people's lives have changed dramatically. People with lung cancer who are shielding may have been particularly affected as they may be unable to carry out many of their normal daily activities, such as grocery shopping and exercise, and are unable to interact with friends and family. People with lung cancer will also have experienced some changes to the clinical services available to them at The Christie. Using a questionnaire and interviews, the investigators want to understand patient experiences of the changes in their daily lives and the changes to their clinical care. This will help us to see if people with lung cancer need any additional support services or if there are any changes the investigators can make to clinical services to improve patient experiences. Eligible patients will be any lung cancer patients receiving current treatment or in active follow up.
Originally, the study was planned to include two parts, i.e., Part A and Part B, however Part B was skipped due to changes in the overall clinical development plan. The conducted Part A was a dose-finding part to investigate the optimal dose, allowing dose adjustments upwards and downwards in younger participants. Doses tested in older participants were chosen based on acceptability of dosing in younger participants.
On March 11 2020 the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) outbreak a pandemic. Worldwide, the number of confirmed cases continues to rise, leading to significant morbidity and mortality. In the Netherlands, although the incidence is currently low due to social distancing measures, recurrence of infections is expected once measures are going to be lifted. Although individuals of any age can acquire SARS-CoV-2, adults of middle and older age are at highest risk for developing severe COVID-19 disease. Moreover, recent reports demonstrate that mortality rates rise significantly among patients 60 years and older. Therefore, strategies to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection or to reduce its clinical consequences in vulnerable populations are urgently needed. Bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccine not only protects against tuberculosis, but also induces protection against various respiratory infections, including those with a viral etiology. We hypothesize that BCG vaccination reduces clinically relevant respiratory tract infections requiring medical intervention, including COVID-19, in vulnerable elderly. The objective of this trial is to determine the impact of BCG vaccination on the incidence of clinically relevant respiratory infections or COVID-19 in vulnerable elderly. The trial is designed as an adaptive multi-center double-blind randomized placebo-controlled trial. The attempt is to include 5,200 to 7,000 vulnerable elderly, defined as ≥60 years of age being discharged from hospital in the last 6 weeks, or visiting a medical outpatient clinic, thrombosis care services, or chronic renal replacement departments. Patients with contraindications to BCG vaccination as stipulated in the Summary of Product Characteristics (SPC) and patients with a history of COVID-19 will be excluded. Participants will be randomized between intracutaneous administration of BCG vaccine (Danish strain 1331) or placebo (0.1ml 0.9% NaCl) in a 1:1 ratio.The trial has an adaptive primary endpoint. Based on accrual of the two endpoints, the primary endpoint will be either (a) COVID-19 or (b) clinically relevant respiratory tract infection requiring medical intervention, potentially including COVID-19 episodes. The other will be declared secondary endpoint. Other secondary endpoints include: all SARS-CoV-2 infections (including asymptomatic infections), influenza infection, acute respiratory infection (ARI; all infections regardless of medical intervention), ARI-related hospital admission, COVID-19 related hospital admission, pneumonia, mental, physical and social functioning, serious adverse events and adverse events, and death.
This is an observational study, in which people recovering from COVID-19 infection will attend an outpatient clinic for a comprehensive swallowing assessment. The assessment will include a videofluoroscopy, measurement of respiratory-swallow coordination using a digital stethoscope, measures of tongue and cough strength and patient reported measures that will help us to understand the presence and impact of swallowing impairment (dysphagia) in this population.
This is a pilot, multi-centre, open-label randomised controlled study to assess the early efficacy of intravenous (IV) administration of CYP-001 in adults admitted to an intensive care unit (ICU) with respiratory failure
The primary objectives of the study were: - To describe the neutralizing antibody profile at Day 1, Day 22, and Day 36 of each study intervention group. - To describe the safety profile of all participants in each age group and each study intervention group up to 12 months post-last injection. The secondary objectives of the study are: - To describe binding antibody profile at Day 1, Day 22, Day 36, Day 181 (Cohort 1) or Day 202 (Cohort 2), and Day 366 (Cohort 1) or Day 387 (Cohort 2) of each study intervention group. - To describe the neutralizing antibody profile at Day 181 (Cohort 1) or Day 202 (Cohort 2) and at Day 366 (Cohort 1) and Day 387 (Cohort 2) of each study intervention group. - To describe the occurrence of virologically-confirmed coronavirus disease (COVID-19)-like illness and serologically-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. - To evaluate the correlation / association between antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 Recombinant Protein and the risk of virologically-confirmed COVID-19-like illness and/or serologically-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection.
This study aims to assess the level of knowledge, attitudes and clinical practices of pediatric dentists regarding COVID-19 pandemic outbreak and evaluate the psychological burden on the dentists and children
