Filter by:Many critical ethical questions arise in pandemic covid 19planning, preparedness and response. These include: Who will get priority access to medications, vaccines and intensive care unit beds, given the potential shortage of these essential resources? In the face of a pandemic, what obligations do health-care workers have to work not withstanding risks to their own health and the health of their families? How can surveillance, isolation, quarantine and social-distancing measures be undertaken in a way that respects ethical norms? What obligations do countries have to one another with respect to pandemic covid 19 planning and response efforts?
Bevacizumab, ZERIBEV® (Pfizer)/AVASTIN® (Roche) 25 mg/ml ®, is a recombinant humanised monoclonal IgG1 antibody It seems interesting to use bevacizumab in severe patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 requiring hospitalization in conventional unit or in ICU. This protocol CORIMUNO19-BEVA will evaluate the efficacy and safety of AVASTIN®/ ZERIBEV® (bevacizumab) COVID-19 patients hospitalized in conventional units. This phase 2 randomized clinical trial aimed at evaluating the efficacy and safety of AVASTIN®/ ZERIBEV® (bevacizumab) alone versus standard of care (SoC) in patients hospitalized in conventional units.
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. There is currently no vaccine to prevent Covid-19 or infection with SARS-CoV-2 or therapeutic agent to treat COVID-19. This protocol CORIMUNO19-COAG will evaluate the efficacy and safety of active anticoagulation using heparin: Tinzaparin (INNOHEP®) or unfractionated heparin (Calciparine®, Héparine Sodique Choay®) in COVID-19 patients hospitalized in conventional or intensive care units. It will use a phase 2 randomized open-label multicentre clinical trial, where patients will be randomly allocated to anticoagulation versus Standard of Care.
There is significant interest throughout the United States in performing a well-designed study to evaluate whether there is value in using Hydroxychloroquine or Chloroquine as a pre-exposure prophylaxis or post-exposure prophylaxis regimen for COVID-19 patients and at risk personnel. We have designed a prospective double blinded randomized controlled clinical trial to answer just this question. The study will consist of 4 arms: 1. A placebo control arm of 450 patients 2. A low dose prophylaxis arm of 450 patients treated with 200mg Hydroxychloroquine daily 3. A high dose prophylaxis arm of 450 patients treated with 400mg Hydroxychloroquine daily 4. A post-exposure arm of 100 patients treated with 400mg Hydroxychloroquine daily for 7 days.
It appears interesting to use nivolumab in severe patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 requiring hospitalization in conventional unit or in ICU. This protocol CORIMUNO19-NIVO therefore, will evaluate the efficacy and safety of OPTIVO® (nivolumab) COVID-19 patients hospitalized in conventional unit. The purpose of this study is to show the efficacy of nivolumab in patients with COVID-19 in combination with standard treatments. A phase 2 randomized open trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of optivo® (nivolumab) alone versus standard of care (SoC) in patients hospitalized in conventional units. Patients will be randomly allocated 1:1 to either nivolumab or SoC.
Pakistan is a resource restraint country, it's not possible to carry out coronavirus testing at mass scale. Simple cost effective intervention against the present pandemic is highly desirable. For patients: Identifying an antiviral gargle that could substantially reduce the colonies of COVID-19 residing in mouth and oro-naso-pharynx is likely to reduce the viral load. Such reduction in the viral load through surface debridement could aid the effective immune response in improving the overall symptoms of the patients. For dentists: This study is important because the nature of the dental profession involves aerosol production, carrying out dental work on asymptomatic patients carrying coronavirus puts the entire dental team at a great risk of not only acquiring the infection but also transmitting it to the others. Antiviral gargles could be used by dentist and their auxiliaries as prophylaxis. For physicians and nurses: The risk of morbidity and mortality is high among physicians and nurses involved in the screening and management of Covid-19 patients. Globally, over 215 physicians and surgeons have died while taking care of Covid-19 patients. The cause of death is attributed to high exposure of viral load. The antiviral gargles and nasal lavage can decrease the fatalities among doctors and nurses. Thus, patients, physicians, nurses and dentists, all could be benefited with this findings of this study.
The investigators aim to characterise Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) in every age group. On the one hand, emphasis is put on the initial presentation, clinical course, outcome and the therapy used. On the other hand further investigations regarding viral and bacterial coinfections, and response of the immune system will be conducted. This study should serve to improve the understanding of COVID-19, to identify risk factors for a severe clinical course and to obtain further insights into pathophysiology of this new infectious disease.
The utilization of AlloSure to help guide immunosuppression management in solid organ transplant recipients diagnosed with COVID-19
This center intends to conduct a single-center, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Nintedanib ethanesulfonate soft capsule in the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19.
The primary endpoint of this study is to assess the effects of a single IV dose of mavrilimumab on the acute inflammatory response in patients with severe COVID-19 pneumonia
