Phase 1 of this study will be a single-centre, open label, dose escalation first in human (FIH) study conducted in 2 groups of healthy participants. Group 1 will enrol adults aged 18-55 years (inclusive); Group 2 will enroll elderly adults (elderly) aged 56-75 years (inclusive). Phase 2 of this study will be a single centre, the proposed design will be observer-blind, placebo-controlled study to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity of ChulaCov19 vaccine in healthy adults (18-75 years of age inclusive).

The Vienna Preserflo Microshunt Cohort Study is an observational study with a prospective postoperative examination in all glaucoma patients who had received a Preserflo Microshunt (PMS) as standalone procedure or in combination with cataract extraction in the time period between January and November 2019 at the Department of Ophthalmology, Medical University of Vienna. It is estimated that approximately 70 patients will be included of this cohort. The cohort will be invited for a prospective postoperative examination after 12 (±5) months of follow up. This examination shall comprise best corrected visual acuity, visual field test, intraocular pressure (IOP) measurement, slit lamp examination, fundus examination (optic disc and retina), gonioscopic assessment of PMS position, anterior segment optical coherence tomography (OCT) (shunt position, anterior chamber angle assessment, limbus shape analysis), corneal pachymetry, specular microscopy of corneal endothelial cells. Additionally, retrospective information concerning IOP, medication and visual fields of all patients will be collected from the Department of Ophthalmology as well as from the referring ophthalmologists where possible. Additionally, we will perform a comparison between two groups to compare differences in outcome measures.
This is a follow-up study for patients treated with FluBHPVE6E7 in previous interventional studies.
Keeping in mind the rising number of cases in Egypt and the strain they put on hospital infrastructure, the idea of home isolation and follow up for COVID 19 positive cases has been adopted in many countries and was approved by World Health Organization (WHO) and Egyptian Ministry of health (MOH). Telehealth can help to mitigate this risk by minimizing the amount of face-to-face interactions. The WHO mentioned telemedicine among essential services in "strengthening the Health Systems Response to COVID-19" policy. The aim in this study is to study the effectiveness of telemedicine in managing mild COVID cases regarding isolation measures, symptoms, medications adherence, and reporting of red flags and side effects.
This is a dose escalation trial in the elderly with obesity to determine the maximum tolerated dose of a novel dietary fiber from whole young soy pods (soy) delivered in foods.
The SAFE-PAD Study aims to evaluate the long-term safety of paclitaxel-coated devices compared with non-paclitaxel-coated devices for femoropopliteal artery revascularization among a broad, real-world population of patients with peripheral artery disease. This multi-year analysis aims to create an ongoing mechanism to evaluate the safety of paclitaxel-coated devices in real world practice. The null hypothesis is that the paclitaxel-coated devices are associated with an increase in mortality relative to the non-drug-coated devices beyond an acceptable magnitude (i.e. the non-inferiority margin), and the alternative hypothesis is that paclitaxel-coated devices are not associated with an increase in mortality relative to the non-drug-coated devices beyond the non-inferiority margin.
Accumulating evidence is showing that gut microbiota could play a key role in gastrointestinal tract and immune system development and function. Many beneficial effects elicited by gut microbiota are mediated its metabolites. Short chain fatty acids (SCFAs) are major metabolites produced by gut microbiota. Among SCFA, butyrate has emerged as pivotal regulator of many gastrointestinal function and immune system development and function. Butyrate is produced by intestinal microbial fermentation of resistant starches and dietary fiber. It regulates several beneficial intestinal and extra-intestinal functions, among the first it serves as the primary energy source for the gut epithelium, increases mineral absorption, stimulates proliferation and differentiation of normal colon epithelial cells, improves the gut barrier function by stimulation of the formation of mucin, antimicrobial peptides, and tight-junction proteins, interacts with the immune system and has anti-inflammatory effects. Butyrate also seems to regulate the expression of antimicrobial peptides in particular upregulating transcription of cathelicidin thanks to his action of histone deacetylase inhibitor and it has been shown to induce human β-defensin 2 (HBD-2) mRNA expression in colonocytes, although there are few publications reporting its regulation of defensins (Berni Canani R et al. W J Gastroenterol. 2011;17(12):1519). Preliminary data showed that breast milk contains butyrate. Butyrate could be an ideal compound for infant formulas for an efficient regulation of a number of protective actions at gastrointestinal tract level and at systemic level. A new butyrate releaser, useful for all the known applications of butyrate, presenting physiochemical characteristics suitable for easy oral administration (free from unpleasant organoleptic properties of butyrate): N-(1-carbamoyl-2-phenyl-ethyl) butyramide (FBA) has been developed. The molecule is a butyrate amide with the amino acid phenylalanine, solid, odourless, tasteless, stable at gastric pH, and able to release butyrate constantly throughout gastrointestinal tract. The aim of the study was to evaluate tolerability and safety profile of a nutritional intervention with FBA in formula fed at term neonates. The effects on the expression of innate immunity biomarkers as well as on neonatal gut function were also assessed.
A two (2) part study to evaluate the safety, tolerability and PK of ADX-914
The first person-to-person Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) transmission in Italy was reported on Feb 21st, 2020, causing one of the most massive outbreak in Europe so far that stopped immediately all elective surgical procedures. Bariatric surgery represents the most effective treatment to obtain an important, long-term weight loss and comorbidities' resolution, including respiratory disorders. A sensitive decrease of epidemic has been observed lately and a gradual and progressive stop of the lockdown (phase 2-3) was planned, when the virus is supposed to be under control and protocols are guiding the restart of the elective bariatric surgery. Several questions are currently open: Laparoscopic bariatric surgery is safe in the phase 2-3? What's the expected complications rate? The actual hospital protocols are effective to minimize the risk of postoperative COVID-19 infection? Aim: to analyse results of bariatric surgery during phase 2-3 COVID-19 pandemic in Italy. Primary end point: 30 days COVID-19 infection, mortality and complications. Secondary end points: readmission rate 30 days, reoperations for any reason related to surgery. Study design: prospective multicenter observational. Setting: Italian National Health Service 8 high-volume bariatric centres. Enrollment criteria: No previous Covid-19 infection; Primary, standard IFSO approved bariatric procedures; No concomitant procedure; No previous major abdominal surgery; >18<60 years old; Compensated comorbidities; Official SICOB's surgical informed consent given, including COVID-19 addendum; Adherence to very restrictive protocols regarding: hospital admission, management of in-hospital patients and after discharge. Follow-up: scheduled outpatient visit 30th postoperative day. Data evaluation: all the cases performed during July/December 2020 will be collected in a prospective database. Patients operated during the period July/December 2019 in the same centers will be considered comparative group (control). Expected results: Transparent information to the patients, and the introduction of the COVID-19 protocol concerning patients and health-professionals protection, should guarantee a safe restart of bariatric surgery in Italy. The network of 8 high-volume centers sharing information and protocols in this "unexplored" period will be a guarantee for patients' safety. Bariatric surgery should induce a postoperative amelioration of the comorbidities reducing the risks in case of a second outbreak.
