Filter by:A Double-blind, Multi-center, Multi-regional, Randomized controlled, Phase 3 Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of CKD-314 in Hospitalized Adult Patients Diagnosed with COVID-19
The study will evaluate the immunogenicity, safety and efficacy of vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in oncohematological patient population and compare the results with patients without prior oncohematological disease. The study is comprised of retrospective and prospective parts. In retrospective part, biobanked residual biological patient material and data will be used. In prospective part, vaccinated oncohematological patients and vaccinated patients without prior oncohematological disease will be invited to participate in long-term follow-up. The subjects will be invited for blood sample collection every three months from the second vaccine dose administration, i.e. 3 mos., 6 mos., 9 mos. etc. When the study subject receives booster dose, additional blood samples for immunogenicity analyses will be collected up to 14 days before and 4-8 weeks after the booster vaccine dose. The follow-up time points occurring every three months will be counted from the last vaccine's dose. Ten time points in total will be collected and tested for humoral and cellular immunogenicity. For safety analysis patient self-documented systemic events (fever, fatigue, headache, chills, vomiting, diarrhea, new or worsened muscle pain, and new or worsened joint pain) occurring up to 7 days following each vaccine dose will be systematized and compared between oncohematological patients and healthy individuals. For efficacy analysis, polymerase chain reaction assay (PCR) confirmed symptomatic disease rates, hospitalization rates and mortality rates will be assessed.
COVID-19 (SARS-CoV2 virus) was declared a global pandemic by the WHO on 11th March 2020. Currently there are no drugs proven to prevent COVID-19 or to reduce the severity of illness if given as prophylaxis. Although vaccines are now available, there remains a need for other prophylactic agents until vaccine use becomes widespread globally and effectiveness and durability is established, particularly in immunocompromised individuals, for whom vaccine responses may be suboptimal. Efforts are underway to repurpose established drugs with well understood drug interactions and safety profiles. PROTECT-V is a platform trial to test prophylactic interventions against SARS-CoV2 infection in vulnerable patient populations at particularly high risk of COVID-19 and its complications, seeking to identify treatments that either might prevent the disease from occurring or may reduce the number of cases where the disease becomes serious or life-threatening. In PROTECT-V, multiple agents can be evaluated on the same platform across vulnerable populations, with the option of adding additional treatments at later time points as these become available. The expectation is for as many sites as possible to recruit to all available trial treatments at any time, however, the platform structure and randomisation/data collection systems allow sites to open the trial treatment arms according to their capacity. The trial opened with intranasal niclosamide and matched placebo, aiming to recruit 1500 vulnerable renal patients in February 2021. A parallel study protocol, was conducted in India, sponsored by The George Institute. Recruitment of around 750 Indian patients was completed in with the rest of the study arm recruitment in November 2022. The Niclosamide arm of the study was completed in June 2023. The second agent, intranasal and inhaled ciclesonide and matched placebo, was meant to be added to the platform in mid-2022 in the same renal patient population however it was unable to be included due to other factor. Sotrovimab and matched placebo have been added to the platform in August 2022 which aim to recruit approximately 800-1000 patients from the main study population with additional patient groups with primary immunodeficiency, any Haematology or Oncology patient who is currently receiving or has received chemotherapy or who is immunocompromised as a result of their disease or treatment, those with a diagnosis of an autoimmune or inflammatory disease receiving immunosuppression and also haematopoietic stem cell transplant recipients.
Radiological and lung function recovery following Covid-19 infection.
This is a prospective one-year cohort study of hospital-based health workers in Georgia to evaluate the effectiveness of COVID-19 vaccine in preventing laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 disease.
Given the high burden of fungal co-infection in patients admitted to ICU and improved outcomes with prompt anti-fungal treatment, it is of vital importance that the doses of anti-fungal are optimum to improve the dismal outcome of influenza/Covid-19 Associated Pulmonary Aspergillosis. Due to the reported difficulties in dosing appropriately in ECMO patients, a prospective observational study is required to accurately evaluate the pharmacokinetics of voriconazole in patients supported on ECMO. This is to ensure that the dose of voriconazole is optimised to improve efficacy and reduce toxicity.
To analyze Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in the breath of patients with SARS-CoV-2 and controls in SARS-CoV-2 breath specimens.
Patients suffering from COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) pneumonia are prone to bacterial and mycotic superinfection. According to existing evidence, the prevalence of superinfection is about 8% to 14% (95% CI 5-26%). However, the percentage of patients treated for superinfection is as high as 80%. There can be multiple reasons for this difference.
The aim of this study is to determine whether there is a higher prevalence of perimyocarditis after undergoing vaccination for Covid-19.
This is a Phase 2 multicenter randomized (2:1), placebo-controlled trial to evaluate early signs of efficacy of allogeneic, umbilical cord-derived (UC) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in patients with COVID-19 and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Randomized participants (N=54) will receive 3 daily doses of up to 90-million cells/unit dose (cumulative dose of up to 270 million UC-MSCs) or blinded placebo. The MSC product will be provided as 2.5 million cells/ml suspended in PlasmaLyte A containing 5% Human Albumin. The appearance-matched placebo product contains the same excipients, PlasmaLyte A and 5% Human Albumin, as the UC-MSCs.
