Filter by:This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.
Subjects (125) will be randomized to one of five mouthrinses and will be asked to give a saliva sample immediately before and after a 30-60 second mouthwash. Saliva samples will be collected from subjects at 15-minute intervals thereafter up to one hour (15, 30, 45 and 60 min). The saliva will be used for RT-PCR detection of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome CoronaVirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and viral infectivity assays, along with quantitative cytokine and chemokine concentration (pg/mL, Luminex). Subjects will complete a short survey on the taste and experience of using the mouthwash. Peripheral blood will be collected at the end of salivary collection. Subjects, except controls, will be provided materials and oral hygiene instruction related to daily use of oral hygiene products. In the seven-day period between study visit one and study visit two, subjects will be directed to brush with Colgate toothpaste (at least twice per day) and rinse with the Colgate mouthrinse (according to on-label procedures). Controls are asked to carry out their typical oral hygiene regimen with the products they typically use. All subjects keep a daily diary of oral hygiene performance, product usage, COVID-19 symptoms and exposures. Subjects complete study visit two one week after the baseline visit during which additional salivary (1 time point, 2 mL of saliva over 5 min, no rinse) will occur and blood samples collected. each subject will undergo a periodontal exam.
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Nosocomial acquisition of SARS-CoV-2 is a frequent concern across hospital settings in Canada and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. This clinical trial is initially designed to evaluate the role of monoclonal antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, for the treatment of hospitalized patients who acquire COVID19 via nosocomial infection. New treatments, as they become available, may be integrated, with appropriate adaptation of this document. The trial was initiated with the bamlanivimab product with the options of casirivimab/imdesimab and sotrovimab added as the prevalence of bamlanivimab resistant variants of concerns increased. It is believed that monoclonal antibody treatments are most likely to be effective early in the disease course. The ability to rapidly identify and initiate such treatments in patients with nosocomial acquisition of the infection, combined with the high mortality of 25-30% experienced by this group of patients led us to propose this trial in collaboration with the CATCO national network. The overall objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody treatment relative to the control arm, in patients who develop nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection, on need for mechanical ventilation or death. This study is designed as a pragmatic randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial. Subjects will be randomized to receive either standard-of-care (control) or the study medication on a 1:2 basis. Bamlanivimab, casirivimab/imdesimab or sotrovimab will be administered intravenously as a one-time infusion after randomization. Casirivimab/imdesimab (REGN) and sotrovimab will be the default agents based on local availability unless both are unavailable AND virus strain known to be native or alpha (B.1.1.7). Incidence of infusion-related reactions in the 24 hours post administration.
This is a prospective, placebo controlled, individually randomized controlled phase III trial in Primary Care, assessing the efficacy of antivirals, i.e. camostat and molnupiravir, in accelerating recovery in Covid-19 patients.
Comparing two surgical techniques in relation to vaginal stump infection, analysis of patient-based and therapy-based risk factors.
To evaluate the prevention of SARS-COV-2 infection after administration of DWJ1248 in person who contact from COVID-19 confirmed patient compared to the placebo.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, and observer-blind study in healthy adults. The study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of the SARS-CoV-2 RNA vaccine candidate against COVID-19: As 2 doses (at two different dose levels), separated by 28 days or as 1 dose In adults 18 years of age and older
Respiratory infections such as colds, flu and pneumonia affect millions of people around the world every year. Most cases are mild, but some people become very unwell. Influenza ('flu') is one of the most common causes of lung infection. Seasonal flu affects between 10% and 46% of the population each year and causes around 12 deaths in every 100,000 people infected. In addition, both influenza and coronaviruses have caused pandemics in recent years, leading to severe disease in many people. Although flu vaccines are available, these need to change every year to overcome rapid changes in the virus and are not completely protective. This study aims to find and develop predictive tests to better understand how and when flu-like illness progresses to more severe disease. This may help to decide which people need to be admitted to hospital, and how their treatment needs to be increased or decreased during infection. The aim is to recruit 100 patients admitted to hospital due to a respiratory infection. It is voluntary to take part and participants can choose to withdraw at any time. The study will involve some blood and nose samples. This will be done on Day 0, Day 2 and Discharge from hospital, and an out-patient follow-up visit on Day 28. The data will be used to develop novel diagnostic tools to assist in rational treatment decisions that will benefit both individual patients and resource allocation. It will also establish research preparedness for upcoming pandemics.
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).
This is a Phase 2b, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study evaluating the efficacy and safety of EDP-938 in HCT recipients with acute RSV infection and symptoms of URTI.
