Filter by:This is a phase IIa, dose-ranging, proof-of-concept study of MRG-001 in patients with ARDS. The aim is to determine the safety and preliminary efficacy of MRG-001 across two dose ranges.
To explore the efficacy of treatment of pulmonary cytokine storm induced by SARS-CoV2 with a monoclonal antibody to IL-2 (Basiliximab) in addition to current standard of care vs current standard of care with the primary efficacy endpoint being the proportion of subjects alive and free of ventilator support, defined as intubation and requiring mechanical ventilation, at Day 28 from time of randomization.
COronaVIrus Disease or Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome -CoV-2 or COVID-19, mortality occurs mainly from immunological behavior or by suicide after healing . In both cases, the causal link is coronavirus within the host response. The rationale of use of deep yoga breathing as adjuvant treatment to COVID-19 disease , is linked to the mechanical action to stimulate the vagus nerve through scalene and sternocleidomastoid muscles function of which the continuity of action bring to modulate upto suppress, the inflammatory reflex and pro-inflammatory cytokines overproduction and contextual lowering of the sympathetic stress response as a first cause of sleep and late mental disorders which can increase the annual suicide rate. An easily breathing medical Yoga protocol has been developed to test a cost-effective care provision, training, contact tracing and mass efficacy testing.
A continuous infusion of Dexmedetomidine (DEX) will be administered to 80 patients admitted to Critical Care because of signs of Respiratory Insufficiency requiring non-invasive ventilation. Measurements of respiratory performance and quantification of cellular and molecular inflammatory mediators. The primary outcome will be the avoidance of mechanical ventilation with secondary outcomes duration of mechanical ventilation, avoidance of delirium after sedation and association of mediators of inflammation to outcomes. Outcomes will be compared to a matched historical control (no DEX) series
Major deep burns (>20% body surface, involving deep skin layers) and associated severe inflammatory reaction and their complication are one of the biggest challenge of intensive care. Haemoadsorption therapy, including the CytoSorb treatment is a promising novel therapeutic approach, but only case-studies are available in the literature yet. Based on data from septic shock patient treatment the investigators hypothesize that CytoSorb is beneficial in early treatment of burns. The investigators aim to conduct a randomised-controlled study to assess the clinical effectiveness (based on score systems including MODS, SOFA, APACHE II, KDIGO, ABSI), 7 and 28 days survival, intensive care length of stay, length of mechanical ventilation, resuscitation fluid need and ino/vasopressor drug doses and the presence and severity of organ dysfunctions, particularly renal dysfunction. The investigatora plan to conduct basic research to elucidate the pathophysiological background of clinical effect, including the measurement of inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines, presence and severity of oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation, protein oxidation, reduced/oxidised glutathion levels) and organ dysfunction markers (kidney injury molecule -1, neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, cystatin-C, uromodulin).
