Filter by:This is a multicenter open-label randomized study for the early treatment of pneumonia due to SARS-COV2 with transfusion of convalescent plasma. Patients with pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 will be randomized to receive or not convalescent plasma collected by recovered patients with previous diagnosis of COVID19
This clinical trial aims to determine if fluvoxamine, a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor with high affinity for the sigma-1 receptor, can be used in mild to moderate COVID-19 to prevent the progression to severe COVID-19. Fluvoxamine is an anti-depressant drug approved by the FDA for the treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder and has a potential for immune modulation as a sigma-1 receptor agonist. The investigational use of fluvoxamine for the treatment of COVID-19 is approved by the South Korean Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. This study is performed fully-remotely at COVID-19 community treatment centers, temporary facilities in Seoul, Korea, to accommodate and monitor asymptomatic to moderately symptomatic case-patients who do not require hospital admission.
This retrospective analysis of inpatient data obtained from administrative and electronic medical records will investigate the role of empiric antibiotics on admission on the mortality for non-intubated patients presenting with Novel Coronavirus Diseases 2019 (COVID-19) associated pneumonia without extra-pulmonary sources of infection or septic shock.
This is randomized trial where households will be randomized to identify the optimal SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) testing modality in a population-representative sample of households in Baltimore City, Maryland. 1,386 households in Baltimore City will be randomized 1:1:1 to one of three testing modalities: 1) fixed-site standard of care testing; 2) community-based mobile van testing; or 3) self-collected home, based testing.
The investigators aim to develop expert consensus statements on infection control management of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in intensive care units (ICU).
In the context of COVID-19 pandemic, identifying low-risk patients who can be safely treated at home and high-risk patients requiring hospitalization or even intensive care is crucial for Emergency Departments. Thanks to a consensus of experts using the Delphi method, we previously defined the HOME-CoV rule. The HOME-CoV rule consists of 8 items precluding home treatment for patients consulting in the Emergency Department (ED) with confirmed or highly suspected mild to moderate COVID-19. It has been validated in a prospective study, patients with a negative rule having a very-low rate of invasive ventilation or death within the 7 days following ED presentation (HOME-CoV study, NCT: 02811237). Using logistic regression, we revised the HOME-CoV rule in order to define a score allowing. The revised HOME-CoV score comprises 7 criteria and, retrospectively assessed in the database of the HOME-CoV study, it exhibits promising performances. A revised HOME-CoV score < 2 had a sensitivity of 0.93 (0.84 to 0.98), a specificity of 0.60 (0.58 to 0.61) and negative predictive value of 1.00 (0.99 to 1.00); and a score > 4 had a sensitivity of 0.41 (0.28 to 0.54), a specificity of 0.93 (0.92 to 0.94) and a positive predictive value of 0.11 (0.07 to 0.16). The present study aims to prospectively validate the revised HOME-CoV score, firstly, in identifying a subgroup of COVID-19 patients with a low risk of evolution to severe COVID-19 and who could be safely treated at home. For this purpose, we will perform an interventional multicentric prospective pragmatic cohort study with implementation of the revised HOME-CoV score to triage COVID-19 patients.
This will be a randomized, open-label study to determine if camostat+ bicalutamide decreases the proportion of people with COVID-19 who require hospitalization, compared to historical controls. Patients with symptomatic COVID-19, diagnosed as outpatients, will be randomized 1:1, stratified by gender, to treatment with standard of care alone (Arm 1) or with camostat and bicalutamide (Arm 2).
- organizing an entirely no in-person contact clinical trial is feasible during a 22 COVID-19 pandemic 23 - Remote smartphone 6-lead ECG monitoring is possible even in a group unfamiliar 24 with the technology 25 - Hydroxychloroquine used prophylactically at 200 mg BID had no observable 26 cardiotoxicity 27 - Additional study using this technique is warranted to look at reliability and cost-28 effectiveness
Surfactant protein plays important role in innate immunity against respiratory viral infections. However, investigators have shown that the surfactant protein polymorphisms are associated with severity of various pulmonary diseases such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), tuberculosis, pediatric acute lung injury. COVID-19 virus gains entry through the respiratory system and responsible for death due to acute respiratory failure. There is a considerable heterogeneity in presentation of COVID-19 infection from asymptomatic patients to severe infection requiring intensive care and some may die. Considering reports of COVID-19 related deaths/severe disease in the same family, it is possible that genetics play an important role in severity of COVID-19 infection. Investigators propose to study the association of surfactant proteins in COVID-19 patients. Key Objectives: a) Characterize genetic markers within the surfactant protein genes in COVID-19 positive patients, b) To determine if there is a correlation between certain genetic markers and the severity of COVID-19 infection which may be used as a prognostic marker, c) To correlate genetic markers with immune studies.
This is a Phase 2/3, randomized, placebo-controlled, multi-center trial to evaluate the safety, immunogenicity and efficacy of INO-4800 administered by intradermal (ID) injection followed by electroporation (EP) using CELLECTRA® 2000 device to prevent coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in participants at high risk of exposure to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus - 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The Phase 2 segment will evaluate immunogenicity and safety in approximately 400 participants at two dose levels across three age groups. Safety and immunogenicity information from the Phase 2 segment will be used to determine the dose level for the Phase 3 efficacy segment of the study involving approximately 7116 participants.
