Emerging evidence indicates that SARS-CoV-2, the etiologic agent of COVID-19, can cause neurological, neuropsychological and psychiatric complications. Given the global dimensions of the current pandemic, there is to consider the possible large-scale neurocognitive impact of COVID-19. Therefore, there is an urgent need for longitudinal studies to determine the acute and chronic effects that COVID-19 may have on the Central Nervous System. These putative effects include the possibility that the CNS serves as a reservoir for the virus, and that COVID-19 triggers CNS deleterious inflammatory cascades and neurodegenerative process. The public implications of these effects are very important in the long term.
This is a phase 1, open-label, randomized clinical trial in males and non-pregnant females, 18 years of age and older, who are in good health, have no known history of COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 infection, and meet all other eligibility criteria. This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity and immunogenicity of mRNA-1273.351 manufactured by ModernaTX, Inc, given in vaccination schedules alone, sequentially, or coadministered with mRNA-1273. mRNA-1273.351 is a novel lipid nanoparticle (LNP)-encapsulated mRNA-based vaccine that encodes for a full-length, prefusion stabilized S protein of the SARS-CoV-2 B.1.351 variant. Enrollment will occur at approximately five domestic clinical research sites. This study includes two cohorts. Cohort 1 will provide rapid information about the immunogenicity of mRNA-1273.351 in a previously vaccinated group. This cohort can inform near term public health decisions if the variant virus becomes more widespread. Cohort 2 will evaluate different strategies for generation of cross protective immune responses in a naïve population. This cohort will take longer to provide information on the immunogenicity of mRNA-1273.351, but is important to inform future public health strategies. Cohort 1 will include approximately 60 subjects 18 years of age and older who received two vaccinations of mRNA-1273 at dosages of 50 mcg, 100 mcg, or 250 mcg in the Phase 1 clinical trial (DMID 20-0003). Subjects in Cohort 1 will receive a single intramuscular (IM) injection of the designated vaccine and will be followed through 12 months after vaccination. Follow-up visits will occur on Days 8, 15, and 29, as well as 3, 6, and 12 months after the vaccination. Cohort 2 will include approximately 150 participants 18 through 55 years of age who have not received a COVID-19 vaccine, have no known history of COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 infection, and do not have underlying conditions that are associated with an increased risk of severe illness from SARS-CoV-2 infection. Enrollment may close before the full 150 participants based on estimates on the timing of immunogenicity results and the need to inform public health decisions. They will be randomly assigned to one of 8 treatment arms and will receive 2 or 3 IM injections of the vaccine and followed through 12 months after the last vaccination. Follow-up visits will occur 7, 14, and 28 days after each vaccination, as well as 3, 6 and 12 months post the last vaccination. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and reactogenicity of mRNA-1273 and mRNA-1273.351 vaccines, in naïve and previously vaccinated individuals.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a serious, acute infectious disease caused by Serious Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). COVID-19 can manifest itself in a wide variety of clinical scenarios. Asymptomatic disease, mild flu findings, pneumonia accompanied by acute respiratory failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) requiring hospitalization in the intensive care unit, and death are possible clinical consequences. Myalgia, fatigue, and muscle weakness are reported regardless of the severity of the clinical presentation of COVID-19. Data on the prevalence and severity of muscle disorders and weakness during hospitalization and discharge due to COVID-19 disease are limited. The aim of this study is to evaluate muscle strength, functional independence, myalgia severity, physical fatigue and dyspnea in hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
Background: The emergency of COVID-19, along with the current difficulties in responding to the high demand for vaccines, requests to the scientific community to find alternative treatments based on reuse of drugs as a strategy to prevent the progression of the disease in patients infected with SARS COV 2. Objetive This study aims to evaluate the use of ivermectin in mild-stage patients to increase outpatient discharge and prevent the progression to moderate or severe stages of the disease. Added value of this study We found that an intervention with ivermectin has impacted on the PPS in a population of outpatients care, between the 5th and 9th day. Also, the treatment increased the probability to obtain outpatient discharge, even in the presence of comorbidities. Implications of all available evidence. Research in Context According to the COVID-19 Treatment Guidelines by the NIH, most trials have several limitations. It needs results from adequately powered and well-designed clinical trials to provide evidence-based guidance on the role of ivermectin in the treatment of COVID- 19. However, our study shows overlaps in benefits with other authors, and taking together, these results are encouraging for further study about repurposing ivermectin for the treatment of COVID-19.
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is responsible for the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic challenging health systems worldwide. While there is a clear correlation between oxidative stress markers and the severity of many viral diseases such as hepatitis C, for SARS-CoV clinical data is limited. The investigators aim at 1.) investigating DNA damage, oxidative stress, inflammation, and aging markers in COVID-19 patients and compare them with age and gender matched healthy controls and patients with influenza; and 2.) investigating all aforementioned parameters during "cytokine storm" via repeated blood sampling.
