Filter by:The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety, tolerability and treatment effect of the orally administered Caspase-1 inhibitor, belnacasan, for the treatment of patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 and to generate proof of concept for future trials.
This study is designed as a prospective, multicentric, clinical study to investigate the performance of the Panbio™ COVID-19/ Flu A&B Rapid Panel for the qualitative detection of COVID-19 antigen, Influenza A antigen (H1N1 and H3N2), and Influenza B antigen in human nasal swabs. This study is part of the performance evaluation to support the CE conformity assessment procedures.
The clinical spectrum of COVID-19 can be very heterogeneous: from mild flu-like symptoms, to the form with severe pulmonary impairment (dyspnoea, tachypnoea, PaO2 / FiO2 ratio below 300 at arterial blood gas sampling, pulmonary infiltrates covering more than 50% of the respiratory surface); up to 5% of patients tend to rapidly develop acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with or without acute cardiac damage, underlying a phase of systemic hyperinflammation (cytokine storm) that may result in shock, multi-organ failure and death
This is a randomised controlled, adaptive, multicentre Phase II protocol evaluating different booster strategies in individuals aged 75 years and older already vaccinated against SARS-CoV-2. Part B of this trial foresees testing of different vaccines as a 4th vaccination dose (second booster) for comparative assessment of their immunogenicity and safety against SARSCoV- 2 wild-type and variants in the elderly, a usually neglected population. Additional vaccines and extended follow-up visits can be added through amendments of this sub-protocol. As stated in the EU-COVAT master protocol, this trial, i.e., the EU-COVAT-1_AGED study, implements a specific safety monitoring strategy (see below). Cohorts and arms can be withdrawn or added as deemed necessary according to the criteria specified in this protocol
This is a study trial to assess the effectiveness of the immune response stimulated by the genetically engineered Bacillus subtilis spore extract which contain Spike protein of the SARS-COV2 on the spore coat.
Low and middle-income countries (LMICs) urgently need cost-effective adaptive technologies to provide CPAP. The lead investigator has designed a device that has already been approved by the Directorate General of Drug Administration (DGDA), Government of the People's Republic of Bangladesh. The design of the nasal seal was comfortable and well tolerated by all the participants. Patients were told about some mild discomfort at higher delivered pressures (14 or 15 cm PEEP), consistent with pressurised nasal delivery by similar devices. The safety phase has been initiated since 1st November 2020 and ended in April 2021. One patient withdrew from the study but none of them developed any adverse events. The feasibility phase started at the end of September 2021. Objectives: 1. To evaluate the barriers and operational challenges related to the introduction of adult bubble CPAP oxygen therapy 2. To evaluate the acceptability of introducing adult bubble CPAP in tertiary level hospitals of Bangladesh
Retrospective single center analyses of COVID-19 patients admitted to the ICU between 01/02/2020 and 31/07/2021.
This is a prospective, observational study. During the study, children and adolescents (ages ≥ 5 to < 16) will be followed post administration of mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Injection site (local), systemic reaction, and unsolicited adverse event data will be assessed on vaccination day and during the 7 days following each vaccination using either identical web-based or paper diaries, depending on study participant preference. At Duke University, Cincinnati's Children Hospital, and Kaiser Permanente Northern California, serum samples will be collected for optional assessment of antibody titers to COVID-19. Each participant who opts in will have baseline (within 3 days of vaccination) serologies obtained and immunogenicity assessment at 28 (+7) days after each dose. All participants will be followed for 180 days after dose 2 for serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest.
A two-stage trial will involve healthy volunteers. The first stage is open trial, and the second stage is a double-blind trial with randomization of volunteers into three groups. At stage I of the trial, the maximum number of screened healthy volunteers will be 30 of which 20 men aged 18 to over 60 years. At stage II of the trial, the maximum number of screened healthy volunteers will be 150, of which 135 men and women aged 18 to over 60 years eligible according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria are planned to be included and randomized to collect data that will be used for the subsequent safety and immunogenicity assessment. The enrollment of volunteers at stage II will be competitive.
The Pacific region is facing several emerging and neglected diseases notably mosquito-borne diseases as malaria or arboviroses among which dengue, Ross River, chikungunya and Zika. These diseases are an important cause of illness and death in the Pacific and the occurrence of arboviruses has increased in the recent years. In humans, these mosquito-borne diseases often have very similar clinical presentations (an acute febrile syndrome often self-limiting). However, these infections can progress to severe and fatal prognosis. Numerous arboviroses outbreaks and in particular dengue outbreaks have affected Vanuatu for decades. Except for DENV and Zika for which epidemiological and virological data are available for Vanuatu, the knowledge on chikungunya and Ross River circulation is very limited and needs to be defined as both viruses have intensively circulated in the region in the past. Knowledge of the level of immune protection of the population for these mosquito-borne diseases is incomplete. For this purpose, seroprevalence studies that intend to retrospectively look for antibodies (IgG) as an evidence of previous infections by a specific pathogen would be highly informative. Knowing the serological profile of the Vanuatu population for dengue and other arboviruses as Ross River, chikungunya and Zika that could have affected the country in the past would be useful in defining the population likely to be infected by future epidemics. COVID-19 pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2 as caused over 520 million cases since December 2019. Vanuatu has been relatively spared from the pandemic due to the establishment of a sanitary sas involving strict border control. On 04 March 2022, an active COVID-19 case was confirmed at Vila Central Hospital who had no travel history, indicating transmission at community level. Overall, a total of 8487 confirmed cases have been reported since the beginning of 2022. Local vaccination campaign was initiated in July 2021. A seroprevalence study documenting population immunity to COVID-19 will inform of the breadth of COVID-19 epidemic in Vanuatu, contributing to the evaluation of undetected infections rate. This identification of vulnerable populations will inform local public Health strategies, including targeted vaccination campaigns.
