Filter by:This is a study to test a new vaccine (Covax-19) against COVID-19. COVID-19 is a potentially deadly disease that is caused by a new strain of coronavirus called SARS-CoV-2. To date, SARS-CoV-2 has infected over 4 million people worldwide resulted in the deaths of over three hundred thousand people.
COVID-19 is a new disease and therefore it is still not clear exactly how the virus affects the body and why people are affected so differently. It causes infection in the lungs and the virus can then attack blood vessels in the lungs and other organs to spark off an inflammatory process that can make a person very ill. It also can cause damage within tiny blood vessels that makes a person's blood thicken up and stop flow in vital organs. The investigators believe complement (which is a chemical in the body which can be harmful in excess) orchestrates the inflammation and thickening of the blood that can make a person sick. The investigators now need to know which of these complement chemicals are elevated in COVID-19 and compare to healthy volunteers, and assess whether the levels are higher in people with severe lung disease. The investigators believe that if levels are increased there are special treatments that can counteract them and potentially be an effective treatment for COVID-19. In this study the investigators will measure different parts of the inflammation process to better understand what may be causing severe disease and to see if there may be benefits from a new treatment to reduce inflammation
The study will be a randomized, partially-blinded, prime-boost, staggered dose-escalation Phase 1 study intended to assess the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the Coronavirus-Like Particle COVID-19 Vaccine at three dose levels (3.75 µg, 7.5 µg, and 15 µg VLP) unadjuvanted or adjuvanted with either CpG 1018 or AS03 in healthy adults 18 to 55 years of age, who have been tested for the absence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. At each dose level, the vaccine will initially be administered to a small number of subjects. Vaccinations of the first 6 subjects at the lowest dose level will be staggered so that each vaccination must be performed at least 30 minutes apart. Vaccination of the remaining subjects at the same dose level and the next higher vaccine dose level will be administered with approval of the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC). The same process will be followed for the second vaccine administration. All subjects will be followed for a period of 12 months after the second administration of the vaccine for safety and immunogenicity testing at the end of the follow-up period.
Coronavirus disease 2019 (abbreviated "COVID- 19") is a pandemic respiratory disease that is caused by a novel coronavirus and was first detected in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The disease is highly infectious, and its main clinical symptoms include fever, dry cough, fatigue, myalgia, and dyspnoea.1 In China, 18.5% of the patients with COVID-19 developed to the severe stage, which is characterized by acute respiratory distress syndrome, septic shock, difficult-to-tackle metabolic acidosis, and bleeding and coagulation dysfunction. After China, COVID-19 spread across the world and many governments implemented unprecedented measures like suspension of public transportation, the closing of public spaces, close management of communities, and isolation and care for infected people and suspected cases. The Malaysian government had enforced Movement Control Order (MCO) from 18th March to 4th May 2020 and henceforth Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) until 9th June 2020. The battle against COVID-19 is still continuing in Malaysia and all over the world. Due to the CMO and CMCO in the country, public and private universities have activated the e-learning mode for classes and as the government ordered, universities are closed and no face-to-face activities allowed. This has forced students of all disciplines including dentistry to stay at home which are wide-spread across Malaysia and shift to e- learning mode. To guarantee the final success for fight against COVID-19, regardless of their education status, students' adherence to these control measures are essential, which is largely affected by their knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) towards COVID-19 in accordance with KAP theory. Once the restrictions are eased students have to come back and resume their clinical work in the campus. Hence, in this study we assessed the Knowledge, Attitude, and Practice (KAP) towards COVID-19 and the students preference for online learning.
In order to inform the public decision on the containment strategy and knowledge of the intensity of the epidemic during post-containment, estimates of the share of the population infected with the SARS-CoV-2 virus responsible for COVID-19 disease at the territorial level are needed as soon as possible. The aim of the study is to estimate the prevalence of positive anti-SARS-CoV-2 serologies by detection of IgT-total antibodies (IgM/IgA/IgG) in the general population of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan area. A study of seroprevalence and symptom collection, or absence of symptoms, on a cluster (household) sample of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan population randomly selected will be conducted. The target population consists of all the inhabitants of the Grand Nancy Metropolitan area, from which a sample is drawn from the electoral lists (households) in a random manner to ensure representativeness. In order to ultimately include 2000 people in the study
The study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of orally-administered M5049 in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia participants who are hospitalized but not on mechanical ventilation.
During the COVID-19 outbreak, it was necessary to remodel the healthcare offer for all categories of subjects in order to minimize unnecessary movements of people while maintaining an adequate level of assistance. This is also true for transgender people, who are periodically requested to come into the clinic for hormonal therapy monitoring and continuation. In our center telemedicine programs dedicated to users have been activated for the remote management of hormone therapy. We use a web-based survey to assess the impact of COVID-19 outbreak on trans-population health and to assess the specific needs of this population in this particular moment.
This is a phase I/IIa trial to evaluate the safety, tolerability and immunological profile of INO-4800 administered by intradermal (ID) injection followed by electroporation (EP) using the CELLECTRA® 2000 device in healthy adults aged 19 to 64 years in Republic of Korea. INO- 4800 contains the plasmid pGX9501, which encodes for the full length of the Spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2. The primary objective of this trial is to evaluate the tolerability, safety, and immunogenicity of INO-4800 administered by ID injection followed by EP in healthy adults in the Part A and Part B. Enrollment into Part A, and Part B will proceed sequentially.
This study will evaluate the feasibility of self-sampling with the iAMP® COVID-19 Detection Kit (Atila BioSystems, Mountain View, CA), a new, low-cost SARS-CoV-2 test that does not require RNA extraction. The investigators will compare the sensitivity and specificity of the iAMP® assay on self-sampled mid-turbinate, anterior nares, and saliva swabs against the gold standard, a nucleic acid amplification testing assay on a clinician-collected nasopharyngeal swab.
This is an observational study to evaluate the effectiveness of the combinations Hydroxychloroquine + Azithromycin (HCQ-AZ) and Chloroquine + Azithromycin (CQ-AZ) in the treatment of Coronavirus (Covid-19) infection in Burkina Faso.
