Filter by:Comparison outcomes of a large cohort of moderate and severe COVID-19 patients received different Antiviral and Anti Inflammatory Drugs.
The main objective of this cohort is to characterize COVID-19 patients hospitalized in infectious disease department. The collection of clinical and biological data from start of hospitalization to long-term follow up will contribute to a better description of the patient care, to the identification of predisposition to complication related to the disease, and to the evaluation of the impact of different therapeutical strategies.
This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.
In this study the investigators will explore the effect of the BNT162b2 COVID-19 Vaccine on semen analysis parameters among 75 fertile men. Fertile men will be regarded as such if they previously successfully impregnated their partners without the use of artificial reproductive technology, or men who previously had a normal sperm analysis exam by WHO criteria (2010). Those recruited will supply a single sperm sample 1-2 months following the second dose of the vaccination. In addition, the participants will fill a brief questionnaire with information regarding their medical and reproductive history. The investigators will examine the macroscopic and microscopic properties of the semen samples and compare them to the WHO semen analysis reference range in an attempt to ascertain whether the vaccine influences sperm parameters.
PURPOSE. The main objective of the present study is to carefully characterize the clinical profile of individuals with lasting sequelae after a COVID-19 admission. As secondary objectives, the analysis of the risk-adjusted influence of COVID-19 severity, previous comorbidities and management of patients discharged after COVID-19 will be performed. DESIGN AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Cross-sectional and prospective registry, a real life "all comers" type, with voluntary participation, without specific funding or conflicts of interest. It is a study initiated by researcher that will have advanced statistical support from the IMAS foundation (Institute for the Improvement of Health Care, Madrid, Spain) and the Cardiovascular Research Foundation (FIC, Madrid, Spain). International level. PARTICIPANTS PROTOCOL. The study has been approved by Hospital Clinico San Carlos Ethic´s Committee (21/128-E) and the institutional board of each participating center. The present study proposes the continuation in time of the work previously carried out in the HOPE registry. It proposes to select all the patients attended in any health center (with in hospital beds), who have been discharged or have died up to 31st august 2020. All will be considered eligible with a positive COVID-19 test (any type) or if their attending physicians consider them highly likely to have presented the infection. Given the anonymous characteristics of the registry and the health alarm situation generated by the virus, in principle, it is not considered necessary to provide written informed consent.
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19), caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), presents a major threat to human health. SARS-CoV-2 is highly infectious and is associated with extensive morbidity and mortality. Our study shares important features with other clinical trials using supplements or other widely available medications (e.g., Ascorbic Acid, Zinc, Vitamin D, Vitamin C). Our study shares two important elements with these previous studies, including: 1. The use of adaptive and cost-effective study design methods, 2. The testing of prophylactic supplementation using known, natural substances that have demonstrated safety and limited side effects. The focus of this study is to use a supplement that combines Cannabidiol and Gigartina Red Algae in creating "CBDRA60", a sublingual tablet, which is hypothesized to help reduce the duration of symptoms in patients diagnosed with the novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The rationale and design of our trial (N=60), is as follows: 60 individuals newly diagnosed with COVID-19 infection will be randomized to one of two groups. They will either receive CBDRA60 (30mg CBD, 30mgRA / 60mg combo; 2x/daily with food or 120 mg total) or a placebo in a 1:1 ratio. The study duration will be 5 weeks. The primary outcome for newly diagnosed individuals is the prevention of disease progression which leads to hospitalization. The secondary outcome is a reduction in symptom severity scores. COVID-19 patients with weakened innate immune systems may be susceptible to more severe disease and higher mortality. An impaired host immune response may lead to higher SARS-COV-2 viral load and subsequent overactivation of the adaptive immune system that results in cytokine release syndrome. CBD and Gigartina Red Algae can modulate both the innate and adaptive immune responses, have anti-viral activity and thereby can suppress the consequent hyperinflammatory response. Viral infection activates a pathological inflammatory response to combat the pathogen and limit its spread. Viral pathogens, such as the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronaviruses (SARS-CoV), and other viruses (such as HIV), have been linked to many human and animal diseases. Advancements in research over the past decade, has led to a better understanding of SARS-CoV biology and the mechanism by which this family of viruses, the coronaviridae, infect and enter the host cells (refs). SARS-CoV-2, a unique type of coronavirus, inhibits host defense by invading host cells, replicating, and infecting numerous tissues. Severe COVID-19 is associated with a cytokine storm, acute respiratory distress and consequent multiple organ pathology that can be fatal. This depictive storm is a result of increase in circulating levels of various proinflammatory cytokines including IL-6, IL-1 TNF-α as well as interferons (IFN-I; IFNα and IFNβ). CBD CBD is a non-psychotropic cannabinoid that has a broad spectrum of well-established anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects. For example, CBD administration in a murine model of lung injury, reduces lung inflammation through inhibition of immune cell cytokine production and suppression of leukocyte infiltration. Our premise is that similar CBD-induced effects would be highly applicable and hugely beneficial to mitigating the acute respiratory distress syndrome observed in COVID-19. Published evidence also indicates that CBD can inhibit viral replication. Red algae (Rhodophyta) are known for their potent anti-viral properties, non-toxicity and for being well tolerated in humans. Rhodophyta contain several sulfated polysaccharides that exhibit high antiviral activity against enveloped viruses, including important human pathogens such as herpes simplex virus (HSV), human cytomegalovirus, dengue virus and respiratory syncytial virus. Sulfated polysaccharides can exert their anti-viral effects through interacting with the external glycoprotein of the virion envelope preventing attachment of the virus to cell surface receptors. Red algae also contain mannose specific lectins that specifically interact with viral envelope glycoproteins including the spike glycoprotein specific to SARS-CoV2 to inhibit viral entry. It is our premise that by using a safe and tolerable dose of the formulated CBDRA60 sublingual tablet, participants could either be protected from viral infection of the SARS-CoV-2 virus (COVID-19) or in subjects that are already infected, CBDRA60, could prevent virus attachment, mitigate virus-induced inflammation and avoid a cytokine storm, enabling a faster recovery.
This is a multicenter, US-only, phase 1, open-label, dose escalation, non-randomized study of the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of investigational ChAd and SAM SARS-CoV-2 vaccines in healthy adult subjects. Homologous and heterologous prime-boost vaccination schedules (Stage 1), as well as boost(s) after receipt of COVID-19 EUA/licensed vaccines (Stage 2) will be examined. Subjects' willingness to receive ChAd vaccines will be assessed and documented at the time of informed consent and considered to determine group assignments. This phase 1 study will enroll 17 Stage 1 and up to 118 Stage 2 subjects. Eligible subjects will be enrolled in different groups based on their age (18-60 years old and >60 years old) and their EUA/licensed COVID-19 vaccination status. A sentinel approach with 72-hour (Stage 1, and Stage 2, Groups 5, 6, 8-10, 12, 13-15) or 7-day observation times (Groups 7 and 11) will be used, before recruiting the remainder of each dose escalation group. Decisions about dose escalation will be determined by the SSC with consultation with the DSMB as needed after all subjects in each group have been observed through Day 8 post first study vaccination. All subjects will be followed through 12 months after their last study vaccination. Vaccinated subjects will be carefully monitored for exposure and infection to SARS-CoV-2 throughout the study. Escalation to the highest dose (10 µg) of SAM-S-TCE in younger subjects will proceed only following safety assessments of the 10 µg dose in older subjects for a period of 28 days post-vaccination. In addition, the dosage of SAM-S-TCE given as a double boost to subjects previously vaccinated with the Johnson & Johnson/Janssen Ad26 COVID-19 EUA/licensed vaccine in Groups 8A, 8B, and 12A, 12B will be determined based on the dose escalation reactogenicity and immunogenicity results in Groups 5-7 and 9-11, respectively. After protocol version 9.0 was implemented, it was decided not to enroll subjects into Groups 7 and 8 because of competing priorities and predicted difficulties enrolling into these two groups. The primary objectives of this study are 1) To assess the safety and tolerability of different doses of ChAd-S or ChAd-S-TCE, and SAM-S or SAM-S-TCE when administered as prime-boost in healthy naïve adult subjects, 2) To assess the safety and tolerability of different doses of ChAd-S or ChAd-S-TCE, and SAM-S or SAM-S-TCE when administered as first or second boost in healthy adult subjects previously vaccinated with an mRNA or adenoviral-vectored COVID-19 EUA/licensed vaccine.
In children with Covid-19, the diagnosis of Kawasaki Disease (KD) and pneumonia should be made very quickly. However, the regional hospitals surrounding Paris don't have the required expertise. The use of MELODY allows the paediatric team to quickly carry out the necessary examinations while avoiding the movement of patients and the risk of contamination. The MELODY remote system developed by the company AdEchoTech is a CE marking telemedicine technique, allowing an expert to perform an ultrasound scan on a distant patient (several hundred/thousands of kms). The Melody system makes it possible to optimize ultrasound expertise resources wherever they are located (all specialties combined) The feasibility of the clinical use of telerobotic sonography has been demonstrated in adults for abdominal, cardiac and prenatal exam. Thus, the aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of this system in children.
The purpose of the study is to assess the safety and efficacy of ATR-002 (in addition to standard-of-care) for the treatment of COVID-19
The hypothesis of this work is that the COVID 19 pandemic and the associated lockdowns are likely to modify the adherence to positive airway pressure (PAP) treatments among patients with sleep apnea. Identifying these patients and identifying adherence "trajectories" over time would help mobilize human and telemedicine resources on the patients most in need.
