Filter by:The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical response of sirukumab (administered as a single intravenous dose) plus standard of care (SOC) compared to placebo plus SOC in COVID-19.
In this study, patients who have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 by PCR testing without severe disease will be randomized on a 2:1 basis to receive a single injection of NT-I7 or placebo. All participants will receive best supportive care in addition to study treatment. The investigators hypothesize that NT-I7 can increase absolute lymphocyte count (ALC), thus potentially improve immune response to enhance viral clearance, thereby reducing duration of symptoms, minimizing contagiousness and preventing progression of severity.
Corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has been declared as a Pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). According to WHO report on March 31st 2020, globally COVID-19 have infected over 750,000 people and caused over 36,000 deaths with case fatality rate of 4.85%. In Indonesia, COVID-19 have infected 1,414 people and caused 122 deaths with case fatality rate of 8.63%. In severe cases, COVID-19 causes complications, such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, septic shock, and multi-organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS), where age and comorbid illnesses as a major factor to these complications. Up to this point there are several promising therapies for COVID-19 but is not yet recommended and in need of further research. The use of convalescent plasma has been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) through the scheme of emergency investigational new drug (eIND). This method has been used as the treatment in several outbreak or plague cases over the years, such as the flu epidemic in 1918, polio, measles, mumps, SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome), EVD (Ebola virus disease) and MERS (middle-eastern respiratory syndrome) and this treatment shows better outcome. Several case report on the use of convalescent plasma for COVID-19 patients with ARDS and mechanical ventilation has been reported and shows promising outcome. Nevertheless, larger and multicenter research need to be done to assess and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of convalescent plasma therapy on for COVID-19 patients with ARDS.
This study will perform prospective repeated serological antibody testing on a cohort of at least 1000 healthcare workers at Great Ormond Street Hospital. Within this cohort, a subset of 150-250 staff members with confirmed (PCR positive) SARS-CoV-2 disease will be followed with intensive monthly testing for 6 months to determine whether antibody levels in the blood are maintained or decrease during this time. All 1000 recruited healthcare workers will be followed 6-monthly
The purpose of the study is to design and execute a prospective, longitudinal, descriptive cohort study in a pragmatic clinical practice for adults with symptoms that may be related to COVID-19.
The main objectives are: - To establish the prevalence of deep venous thrombosis through ultrasonography in Patients infected with COVID-19 admitted to hospital. - To identify patients with higher risk of deep venous thrombosis.
The main objectives are: - To establish the prevalence of major bleeding in patients treated with higher than recommended thromboprophylaxis doses. - To identify variables associated to higher risk of bleeding.
In severe COVID-19 pulmonary failure, the profound hypoxemia is mainly related to pulmonary vasodilation with altered hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV). Besides prone positioning, other non-ventilatory strategies may reduce the intrapulmonary shunt. This study has investigated almitrine, a pharmacological option used in standard care to improve oxygenation. A case control series of mechanically ventilated confirmed COVID-19 patients was recorded. At stable ventilatory settings, consecutive patients received two doses of almitrine (4 and 12 mcg/kg/min) at 30-45 min interval each, and were compared to 7 "control" COVID-matched patients conventionally treated. The end-point was the reduction of intra-pulmonary shunt, with an increase in partial pressure of arterial oxygen (PaO2) and central venous oxygen saturation (ScvO2).
The SARS-CoV 2 pandemic started in China in December 2019, then reached France on January 24, 2020. On March 14, France moved into phase 3 of the epidemic threshold with the implementation of containment measures on March 17 Measures were put in place by N.Belloubet (French Minister of Justice) from March 17, including suspension of visiting rooms and activities in detention. Containment provides boredom and isolation with many potential consequences: sleep disturbance, anxiety, PTSD, depression, suicide, addictive behavior and violence. However,prisoners have a higher prevalence of substance use disorders than the general population. What will have been the impact of the confinement on the consumption of psychoactive substances by prisoners at the Villeneuve Les Maguelone prison. - Anonymous questionnaire from the start - Collection of socio-demographic data - Collection of consumption data before and during containment - Collection of monitoring data
This trial has two parts. Part A and Part B. Due to changes in the overall clinical development plan, Part B will no longer be conducted. The objectives originally described for Part B have been implemented in the ongoing development via a pivotal Phase I/II/III trial BNT162-02/C4591001 (ClinicalTrials.gov NCT: 04368728). Part A is for dose ranging of four different vaccines (BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2) which will be undertaken with dose escalation and de-escalation plus the evaluation of interim dose levels. It also includes dose ranging in older participants. The vaccines BNT162a1, BNT162b1, BNT162b2, and BNT162c2 will be administered using a Prime/Boost (P/B) regimen. The vaccine BNT162c2 will also be administered using a Single dose (SD) regimen. Three additional cohorts aged from 18 to 85 years receiving BNT162b2 only. BNT162b2 has entered a Phase II/III evaluation of efficacy, with the intent to support an application for marketing authorization. The dosing regimen under investigation is two BNT162b2 doses given ~21 d apart.
