Filter by:With the unprecedented morbidity of the COVID-19 pandemic, the vaccine effectiveness needs to be assessed across diverse populations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of an inactivated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine in medical workers.
Evidence of COVID-19 related anosmia and dysgeusia continues to accumulate daily. Currently, up to 80% of patients report subjective olfactory dysfunction (OD), and prevalence using objective olfactory testing could be even higher. We propose a phase II single-site, double-blinded, placebo-controlled randomized clinical trial to determine the efficacy and safety of intranasal theophylline, a known phosphodiesterase inhibitor in the treatment of asthma, as a possible treatment for COVID-19 related OD. Theophylline has shown benefit in similar clinical trials for post-viral OD.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of the drug nitazoxanide 500 mg, administered three times a day, in relation to placebo in preventing the development of COVID-19 in household contacts of patients diagnosed with the disease.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety, reactogenicity, and immune response of the SpFN COVID-19 vaccine with Army Liposomal Formulation QS21 (ALFQ) adjuvant in healthy adults ages 18-55.
BACKGROUND: On January 7, 2020, the Chinese authorities identified as the agent responsible for the cases of atypical pneumonia of unknown etiology a new type of virus of the Coronaviridae family that has subsequently been named SARS-CoV-2, whose genetic sequence was shared by Chinese authorities on January 12 (taxonomy ID: 2697049). On January 30, 2020, the director general of the World Health Organization (WHO), following the advice of the Emergency Committee convened in accordance with the International Health Regulations (2005), declared that the COVID-19 outbreak started in Wuhan, China in December 2019, being a public health emergency of international concern. On March 11, the WHO declared the global SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. So far, in the absence of effective vaccines or antiviral drugs, efforts have focused on identifying cases and their contacts. Both the cases and their contacts are isolated for about 14 days with the intention of minimizing the spread of this infection and avoiding an increase in the number of affected. At the time of writing this new version of the protocol, we are immersed in the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. The projections of the natural history of the disease and the estimates of possible infections by SARS-CoV-2, carried out at the end of the first wave, made it possible to determine the feasibility of this second wave with the onset of cold from the autumn. Given this scenario, the University of Barcelona, together with the Gerencia Territorial del Área Metropolitana Sud, has planned to carry out, a study of seroprevalence and screnning of SARS-CoV-2 in the population of Universidad de Barcelona users. The results of this study will help to make preventive decisions in the face of SARS-CoV-2 infection at the UB, in relation to its teaching and administrative activities. In addition, this cross-sectional study can serve as the base study for a future follow-up study. HYPOTHESIS: The incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the group of students and workers at the University of Barcelona is similar to the incidence in the general population. MAIN OBJECTIVE: - Estimate the incidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection in the UB community. - Estimate the SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence infection in the UB community.
This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.
Double-blind, parallel, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study. Subjects with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection by PCR or antigen rapid test, asymptomatic or with mild COVID-19 symptoms will be included. Subjects who agree to participate and who are eligible will be randomized to perform a mouth rinse and gargle with a 0.07% CPC mouthwash (experimental) or with a substance of the same color (placebo). Saliva samples will be collected at baseline (i.e., before wash) and 1 hour and 3 hours after wash. Saliva samples will be transferred to a central laboratory for SARS-CoV-2 viral load determination, nucleocapsid protein levels determination, rapid antigen testing, viral infectivity analysis and storage.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate the effect of the consumption of a probiotic strain on the incidence and severity of COVID-19 in elderly population living in a nursing home. In addition, it will be evaluated if the probiotic strain have some effect on the immune response generated by the Covid-19 vaccine inthis population.
Results will be submitted, however please note that data are not yet available for all serology outcome measures. This will be a Phase 2/3, randomized, placebo-controlled, observer-blind study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of 30 µg of BNT162b2 or placebo administered in 2 doses, 21 days apart, in approximately 350 healthy pregnant women 18 years of age or older vaccinated at 24 to 34 weeks' gestation. Participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive BNT162b2 or placebo (saline).
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.
