Filter by:The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficiency of an assembled modified mask in protecting health care workers against Coronavirus in case of any personal protective equipment shortage. At least 20 healthy participants will be recruited to try the modified mask. The modified masks will be made from masks that are already available as well as filters available in the pulmonary department at the Oklahoma City VA Health Care System
This is a Phase 3, double-blinded, randomised placebo-controlled, multi-centred trial evaluating the efficacy of the four-component meningococcal B vaccine, 4CMenB (Bexsero®), in the prevention of Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection.The targeted population is 18-50 years-old men (cis and trans), trans women and non-binary people who have sex with men (hereafter referred to as Gay Bisexual Men+ [GBM+], either HIV-negative and taking pre-exposure prophylaxis [PrEP], or HIV-positive with undetectable viral load <200copies/ml and a cluster of differentiation 4 [CD4] count >350 cells/cmm) who have high N. gonorrhoeae incidence and are recommended by Australian guidelines to have regular, comprehensive sexual health screening. 730 participants will be enrolled and randomised 1:1 and stratified by clinical sites to receive two doses of 4CMenB vaccine or a matching placebo at 0 and 3 months by intramuscular injection. Recruitment is for 12 months and all participants will be follow-up 3-monthly for a period of 2 years. The trial aims to evaluate the efficacy of 4CMenB in the prevention of N. gonorrhoeae infection.
The aim of this study is to analyze if administration of conestat alfa for 72 hours in addition to standard of care (SOC) in patients hospitalized with non-critical SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia (WHO Ordinal Scale Score 3 or 4) reduces the risk of disease progression to Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).
The purpose of this study is to determine whether hydroxychloroquine is an effective prophylactic regimen to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection among healthcare workers. Participants will be randomized into two parallel groups. The first arm will evaluate the use of hydroxychloroquine every-other-day plus standard measures of protection for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2. The second arm will evaluate the use of standard measures of protection for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2. The target enrollment is 320 participants. Each study participant will be monitored for SARS-CoV-2 seroconversion in weekly visits or for the development of COVID-19 symptoms for 8 weeks.
The inflammation is central in COVID-19 infections. Our aim is to evaluate the clinical value of measuring inflammation by using serum protein electrophoresis (SPE). SPE evaluation of inflammation should be able to predict outcome, follow up evolution or treatment efficacy in patients with coronavirus infection and thus anticipate their evolution to severe viral infection and allow an optimal clinical management. SPE inflammation diagnostics will be benchmarked with other diagnostics of inflammation, currently used more routinely.
Prospective observational study of epidemiological surveillance, multicenter, non-profit, spontaneous, Italian with objective to describe the incidence of CMV infections and diseases in adult and pediatric patients undergoing allo-HSCT during the first 6 months from transplant. This study will evaluate approximately 1500 subjects (with competitive enrolment) from GITMO investigational centers.
The aim of the study is to clinically use bovine Lf as a safe antiviral adjuvant for treatment and to assess the potential in reducing mortality and morbidity rates in COVID-19 patients. The study was approved by the ethical committee of the Egyptian Center for Research and Regenerative Medicine in 11-5-2020.
Phase III, Prospective, Multinational, Multicenter, Randomized, Controlled, Two-arm, Double Blind Study to Assess Efficacy and Safety of D-PLEX Administered Concomitantly with the Standard of Care (SoC), Compared to a SoC Treated Control Arm, in Prevention of Post Abdominal Surgery Incisional Infection.
The aim of this protocol is to evaluate, in a multicenter, randomized, double blind vs placebo clinical trial the effects of a marketed food supplement containing Lactobacillus reuteri DSM 17938 and vitamin D3 (Reuterin® D3) in the prevention of recurrent respiratory infections in pediatric patients suffered from Recurrent Respiratory Infection (RRI) in previous years.
This is a multicenter, Phase 2 study, to assess the efficacy of the treatment with convalescent plasma in patients with severe COVID-19 infection.
