Filter by:Plasma from donors who have recovered from coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) contain antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 and may be a potential therapy for hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The efficacy of high-titer convalescent plasma for COVID-19, however, still unclear. The present study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of using convalescent plasma for treating hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
This master protocol serves as a common reference for the inpatient and outpatient clinical studies that share common elements.
Clinical trials of prevention modalities for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and pneumonia are underway under separate protocol(s) for close contacts (i.e., household contacts, [e.g.,3502]) of infectious (index) individuals (3502-01). Characterizing the index individuals within households will ascertain the risk of exposure for the contact participant. These data will be used to strengthen the precision of efficacy estimates. This ancillary observational study will assess the cofactors for infectiousness among index individuals whose close contacts are enrolled in COVID-19 prevention clinical trials. Additionally, this study will assess post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection in index individuals that are more than two weeks past their initial diagnosis.
The purpose for this study is to determine if the study drug baricitinib is effective and safe in hospitalized pediatric participants with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID -19) and to confirm the dose.
This is randomized, blinded and controlled design. Among the randomly selected subjects who have been vaccinated with two doses of Inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (Vero cell), based on a step-wise approach, the subjects will receive one dose of recombinant COVID-19 vaccine sequentially at different shedules of 4-6 months, 7-9 months and >9 months after two doses of vaccination, and the subjects vaccinated at different schedules will be randomly assigned to different sequential immunization groups. At the same time, each sequential immunization group will be matched with a control group with the inactivated COVID-19 vaccine (vero cells) as the booster dose.
The investigators aim to carry out a retrospective observational study, analysing lung ultrasound images from patients who have presented to A&E for routine diagnostic purposes (ruling out cardiogenic pulmonary oedema, Pulmonary embolism and pericardial effusions) and systematically assessing for abnormalities typical for COVID-19 infection (Pleural irregularities, B lines, consolidations, pleural effusions). Doing this, the investigators will also develop a suggestion for a standardised technique for lung ultrasound which can be transferred to other clinical settings (Intensive Care, Acute medical Unit) and could form the basis for an international standard. Thirdly, the investigators aim to correlate our findings to clinical severity judged by oxygenation status on arrival in ED. To the investigators' knowledge, this is the first study of this kind.
Patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) presents risk to develop muscle weakness associated with prolonged period of mechanical ventilation support and hospital stay.
Lung ultrasound has been used to help diagnose COVID-19 as an alternative to CT scanning and chest X-ray. CT scanning is onerous and there are difficulties taking critically unwell patients there as well as decontamination issues. Chest X-ray misses up to 40% of COVID diagnoses. Although lung ultrasound can diagnose, the investigators do not know how long these lung ultrasound changes last. The investigators would like to follow up patients to characterise the pattern of changes and how long they last. This is particularly important given a potential second surge of COVID-19 is looming and the investigators would like to know if lung ultrasound changes are new or old in patients presenting during this second wave and in the future.
This is a multi-center, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel, phase 2 study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of UI030 in COVID-19 patients
The present work proposes to find if a bio-active composite in the hemolymph or plasma of the freshwater bivalve Anodonta cygnea is able to offer immunity and specificity for meliorating the major symptoms in human SARS and COVID-19 lineage infection. The Methodology concerns in silico procedures using organic fluids from 54 bivalves (in very specific conditions) to evaluate their therapeutic effects in 6 voluntary SARS and COVID-19 infected persons with an integrative diagnosis by a computational Mora®Nova apparatus to access the basal and experimental human physiological parameters.
