Filter by:The CONTAIN (CiclesOnide cliNical TriAl covId-19 treatmeNt) is a randomized control study of ciclesonide vs placebo for mild covid-19 disease. The need for potential therapy for COVID-19 patients is urgent. Ciclesonide has shown encouraging in vitro results, is easy to be used and is readily available. It has a low rate of side effects and few interactions with other drugs. It is unusual to use an inhaled steroid drug for COVID-19 but there has been new data suggesting steroids may have an antiviral effect in addition to an anti-inflammatory effect. Investigators propose to use inhaled and nasal ciclesonide to stop viral replication in the nose and airways. Investigators hope this will accelerate recovery from COVID-19 illness in individuals who are not admitted to hospital at time of diagnosis of COVID-19.
unicenter, randomized, open-label clinical trial on the efficacy of tocilizumab in modifying the inflammatory parameters of patients with COVID-19.
At the end of December of 2019, a series of patients in Wuhan, China were struck with a mysterious respiratory infection. These isolated events have rapidly grown into a deadly, global pandemic. This pandemic is caused by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which results in the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). For individuals infected with COVID-19, approximately 30% of the hospitalized cases are associated with cardiovascular complications. Data are emerging that individuals with pre-exiting conditions (like hypertension, diabetes, cancer, or medical issues related to the immune system) are most susceptible to complications related to COVID-19. Furthermore, individuals of certain racial and ethnic backgrounds (e.g. African American and Hispanic) are at a higher risk of death from COVID-19. Despite these emerging observations, it remains unclear who will develop the cardiovascular complications (acute myocardial injury with evidence of a myocarditis-like picture and cardiogenic shock) and what the long term sequelae of this disease will be for survivors of this infection after hospitalization. Thus, the goals of this project are to better understand the epidemiology of cardiac injury in acutely ill COVID-19 patients through deep cardiac phenotyping and identify the molecular profile of individuals most susceptible to cardiac injury from COVID-19.
This is a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, parallel group study to investigate the efficacy of pemziviptadil (PB1046) by improving the clinical outcomes in hospitalized COVID-19 patients at high risk for rapid clinical deterioration, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and death. The study will enroll approximately 210 hospitalized COVID-19 patients who require urgent decision-making and treatment at approximately 20 centers in the United States.
Cohort prospective study. Objectives : Primary objective: To describe the lung ultrasound lesions in pregnant women in case of suspected or confirmed COVID-19 Secondary objectives: - To compare the lung ultrasound lesions with chest Computed Tomography -scanner (CT-Scan) lesions - To evaluate the performances of the lung ultrasound to diagnose COVID-19 in pregnant women - To evaluate predictive value of different lung ultrasound lesions for intensive care unit admission of pregnant women with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 - To describe the pregnancy issues of the study population Course of the study: - Inclusion of pregnant suspected of having COVID-19 and cared following the service protocol - Performing of lung ultrasound at bedside in labor ward or in COVID unit Primary outcome: Lung ultrasound lesions (and corresponding score) at the moment of the initial management of pregnant women suspected or confirmed with COVID-19 (having a nasopharyngeal Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) SARS-CoV-2 and a chest CT-scan)
This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) infusions of pamrevlumab when compared with placebo in participants who are hospitalized with acute COVID-19 disease.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of Coronavirus-90 (COVID-19) convalescent plasma for the treatment of COVID-19. Plasma is the liquid part of blood that is left when all the blood cells have been removed. Convalescent means it is taken from people who were infected with COVID-19 and recovered. The use of this blood product to treat COVID-19 is investigational, which means the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not yet approved it to be sold commercially. This is a human blood product collected by licensed blood banks. Donors of COVID-19 convalescent plasma must meet all standard blood donor criteria and must also meet all criteria set by the FDA for being a donor of COVID-19 convalescent plasma. A total of 500 patients will take part in the study at 8 hospitals within Beaumont. Similar studies are being done at other centers, but they are not directly related to this study. Participants will be assigned to a study group depending on how sick they are. - Group A: Those who require more than 6 liters (L) of supplemental oxygen but are not on a ventilator - Group B: Those who require a ventilator to preserve their life. Both groups will receive one unit (approximately 200ml or just under 1 cup) of COVID convalescent plasma. The transfusion will be given over about 30 minutes via an IV. Blood samples will be taken prior to and one hour after the transfusion to measure participant antibodies against Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and a nasopharyngeal swab (deep in the nostril) will be taken to test for presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. One hour after the transfusion a blood sample will be taken to measure antibody levels to determine if the plasma caused the antibody level to rise. Similarly, blood samples will be taken to measure antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 and a nasopharyngeal swab will be taken to test for presence of the SARS-CoV-2 virus 1, 3 and every 7 days after the transfusion while the participant is in the hospital The participant's final health status will be determined on day 28. Hospital records will be monitored for 90 days after discharge to determine if the participant is readmitted to the hospital.
Open label two arms, non randomized Convalescent Plasma treatment to severe and critical pneumonia COVID-19 hospitlaized patients compared to a historical cohort with matched controls.
Sars-Cov2 (COVID-19) may invade the CNS inducing neurological diseases such as anosmia, ageusia, encephalitis, ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke. Management of severe neurological complications in COVID-19 patients may require ventricular cerebrospinal fluid drainage and cranial decompression. During surgery, cerebrospinal fluid, meninges and brain parenchyma can be safely removed from the patient. In this study, COVID-19 patients will be evaluated first, for the presence of Sars-Cov2 in the cerebrospinal fluid and/or biopsies and second, for the consequences of Sars-Cov2 neuroinfection in terms of inflammatory and immune responses.
