Filter by:Blood samples from participants who have recovered from COVID-19 infection will be obtained and studied. The goal of the research is to identify antibodies that have been generated by the patient to fight the COVID-19 infection. By identifying the most effective antibodies, scientists can make specific antibodies to use to prevent future coronavirus outbreaks or to treat patients with severe disease.
A novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, is responsible for a rapidly spreading pandemic that has reached 160 countries, infecting over 500,000 individuals and killing more than 24,000 people. SARS-CoV-2 causes an acute and potentially lethal respiratory illness, known as COVID-19, that is threatening to overwhelm health care systems due to a dramatic surge in hospitalized and critically ill patients. Patients hospitalized with COVID-19 typically have been symptomatic for 5-7 days prior to admission, indicating that there is a window during which an effective intervention could significantly alter the course of illness, lessen disease spread, and alleviate the stress on hospital resources. There is no known treatment for COVID-19, though in vitro and one poorly controlled study have identified a potential antiviral activity for HCQ. The rationale for this clinical trial is to measure the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine for reducing viral load and shedding in adult outpatients with confirmed COVID-19.
This Phase III trial four treatment strategies non-critically ill hospitalized participants (not requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission and/or mechanical ventilation) with SARS CoV-2 infection, Participants will receive hydroxychloroquine or chloroquine with or without azithromycin.
This observational study will investigate suspected infectious diseases of unknown etiology prospectively during outbreaks and at healthcare facilities, and retrospectively through historical samples where no etiology was ever determined. The study is designed to rapidly, flexibly, and consistently respond to any potential scenario in Indonesia, and the data collected will provide needed insight into the landscape of infectious diseases in the country. By better understanding the infectious causes of outbreaks and difficult hospitalized cases, the Indonesian Ministry of Health will be able to more accurately and efficiently control infectious diseases and craft healthcare policies.
The spread of novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) related infection (COVID-19) has led to many patient presentations in the emergency department for respiratory complaints, with many of these patients requiring ICU admission and ventilatory support. While COVID-19 patients have an increased need for supportive care, there is currently no specific treatment directed against 2019-nCoV. Nitric oxide inhalation has been used as a pulmonary vasodilator and has been found to have antiviral activity against other coronavirus strains. The primary aim of this study is to determine whether inhaled NO improves short term respiratory status, prevents future hospitalization, and improves the clinical course in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 specifically in the emergency department.
This study aims to find out whether treating children and young people living with HIV with two anti HIV medicines, dolutegravir and lamivudine, is safe and as effective as the three-medicine anti-HIV treatments currently used in routine practice.
The primary objectives of this study are: - To assess the safety and tolerability of cefiderocol after single-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 18 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the pharmacokinetics (PK) of cefiderocol after single-dose administration of cefiderocol in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 18 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the safety and tolerability of cefiderocol after multiple-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 12 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections - To assess the PK of cefiderocol after multiple-dose administration in hospitalized paediatric participants 3 months to < 12 years of age with suspected or confirmed aerobic Gram-negative bacterial infections
This is a Phase II interventional study testing whether treatment with hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc can prevent symptoms of COVID-19
Healthcare workers are particularly at risk of SARS-CoV-2. This study aims to assess the efficacy of a daily single dose of tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF) (245 mg)/ Emtricitabine (FTC) (200 mg), a daily single dose of hydroxychloroquine (HC) (200 mg), a daily single dose of TDF (245 mg)/FTC (200 mg) plus HC (200 mg) versus placebo, during 12 weeks in: (1) reducing the incidence of symptomatic disease and (2) reducing clinical severity COVID-19 among hospital healthcare workers aged 18 to 70 years in public and private hospitals in Spain.
This is a Phase II interventional study will test the efficacy of quintuple therapy (Hydroxychloroquine, Azithromycin, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc) in the treatment of patients with COVID-19 infection).
