Long Covid is a multisystem condition comprising often severe symptoms that follow a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Long COVID often manifests as fatigue and neurocognitive impairment (also referred to as 'brain fog'). Based on two systematic reviews of Covid-19 cases in neonates, children and adolescents under 19 years of age, fatigue caused by Long Covid can persist for years and can lead to work disability and labour shortages, posing a public health emergency with lasting health, mental, and economic impacts. To date, no treatment has shown to be broadly effective for the treatment of Long Covid. An experimental study has demonstrated that metformin, a common diabetes drug, might reduce the incidence of long COVID if given during the acute phase of COVID-19. The study, however, did not look at whether metformin would be effective as a treatment for those who already have long COVID. It also did not report the results by age groups, so it is not clear if the effect of metformin differs for people younger than 35 years of age. Therefore, a pilot, adaptive randomized controlled trial, which will evaluate the feasibility of conducting a large platform trial and will also evaluate the efficacy and safety of using metformin (versus placebo, a look-alike substance with no active ingredient) in managing fatigue in long COVID adolescent patients with persistent (long term) features of fatigue (chronic fatigue syndrome) has been proposed.
The proposed study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of multiple ascending doses (MAD) of SLV213 administered orally (PO) every 12 hours (Q12h) daily for 7 days in healthy male and female participants, 18-65 years of age. This study will help to select the most likely suitable dose (e.g., at Maximum Tolerated Dose [MTD]) for the treatment of patients with COVID-19 in a pivotal study. This phase 1 double blind, placebo-controlled study will consist of three sequential cohorts of 12 participants each (8 SLV213 and 4 placebo), at doses of 400 mg Q12h, 600 mg Q12h, and 800 mg Q12h administered orally for 7 days. After each cohort, a Safety Review Committee (SRC) will evaluate the safety of the regimen before proceeding to dose the next cohort. Randomization will occur into the respective cohorts as above. Upon meeting the Inclusion/Exclusion criteria, subjects will begin treatment with SLV213 or placebo per their assigned cohort. The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of multiple ascending doses of SLV213 for 7 days in healthy participants.
Patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 can present with a wide range of manifestations clinical conditions, ranging from no symptoms to serious or chronic illness. The current gold standard test for the diagnosis of COVID-19 is based on a molecular test of reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), aimed at detecting the RNA of the virus in respiratory samples such as nasopharyngeal swabs or aspirates bronchial, other methods such as antigen tests and serological detection tests IgM and IgG in response to COVID-19 viral infection, can be used for the purposes of screening in the general population. In this context of variety of existing tests, it is important to monitor the biological parameters related to COVID-19 pathology by tracking the accuracy, specificity and sensitivity of these tests in current clinical practice. This research is a collection of additional biological samples with minimal impact on the intake usual care of the patients concerned, for the monitoring of biological parameters carried out in routine on several reagent kits used for screening for the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in terms of sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, for the implementation of indicators quality monitoring of these kits.
The goal of this clinical trial is to develop a comprehensive mental health counseling programpurposed to address the social determinant of health impacts of the coronavirus disease of2019 (COVID-19). The main questions the investigators aim to answer are: 1) What are themental and social determinant of health impacts of a COVID-19 diagnosis, and 2) What are theimpacts of a counseling program implemented to address those impacts? Participants willparticipate in individual interviews, attend individual and group counseling, and be providedresources related to their social determinants of health needs.
This two-year study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of an exercise + cognitive training program to improve neurological symptoms of long-COVID. This is a two-phased trial: 1) an exercise phase and 2) a cognitive training phase. The exercise phase will be an aquatic based exercise program. A combination exercise + memory training programs designed for persons with cognitive impairment have significantly improved memory more than other single intervention groups (exercise only, cognitive training only) and given the success of combination training programs with healthy adults, it is important to adapt these programs for persons with neurological symptoms of long-COVID.
PEACH2 is a community-based study, targeting individuals affected by diabetes. Study participants will be randomized into the PEACH2 Intervention Arm or the Control Arm. The intervention lasts for 4 months and participants will be followed for 10 months in total.
P. aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterium known to be responsible for numerous healthcare-associated infections, particularly in intensive care units (ICU). The frequency of these infections seems to have increased during the first waves of the COVID-19 pandemic. Identifying cases of co-infection and secondary infections with P. aeruginosa in patients with COVID-19 would provide a better understanding of the epidemiological evolution and characteristics of infected patients. Treatment of P. aeruginosa infections requires the use of antibiotics. Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem, with an increase in resistance among P. aeruginosa strains. The misuse of antibiotics to treat patients can accentuate the phenomenon of antibiotic resistance, and failure to take account of resistance revealed by antibiograms can compromise patient recovery. Analysis of bacteriological results and patient medical records would enable a posteriori evaluation of the proper use of antibiotics (choice and adaptation of molecules, doses and duration of prescriptions), and identify any areas for improvement. The main objective is to describe the evolution of P. aeruginosa infections in ICU patients with COVID-19 during the first 3 waves of COVID-19 (01/03/2020 to 31/05/2021). Secondary objectives are to describe the typology of P. aeruginosa strains identified among included patients (sampling sites and resistance profiles), to assess antibiotic prescriptions for these patients and to describe the relapse rate of included patients with a first P. aeruginosa infection.
The first aim of this study is to determine the feasibility of delivering CO-OP remotely to individuals experiencing cognitive impairments that limit everyday activities in post-COVID-19 syndrome (PCS). The second aim of this study is to assess the effect of CO-OP on activity performance, subjective and objective cognition, and quality of life in a sample of individuals with PCS. The research team hypothesizes that effect size estimations will indicate that CO-OP will have a greater positive effect, compared to an inactive control group, on activity performance, subjective and objective cognition, and quality of life in a sample of individuals who self-report PCS and cognitive impairment.
The purpose of this post-marketing study is to assess the safety of Comirnaty monovalent XBB.1.5. for booster vaccination children ages 6 months though 4 years under actual use medical practice.
