Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

In this retrospective study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of two antiviral drugs on COVID-19 and inpatients with existing complications in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University. In addition, we also explored a key issue. Is the combined treatment effect of two antiviral drugs, Paxlovid and Azvudine, better than the use of a single drug?

Probiotics and or Colchicine may be considered as an option of treatment since they have anti-viral effect anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effect. A total of 150 participants were were randomly assigned (1:1:1) to receive either the standard treatment protocol and colchicine or the standard treatment protocol and probiotics or the standard treatment protocol alone for two weeks. Participants followed up twice weekly by telephone.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN14284 in healthy participants, as measured by all treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and treatment-emergent serious adverse events (SAEs). The secondary objectives of the study are: To assess the concentration-time profile of REGN14284 in serum To assess the immunogenicity of REGN14284

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety of STI-1558 in healthy subjects and the safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy in SARS-CoV-2-Positive subjects.

COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which had its first case identified in December 2019 in Wuhan, China. The disease can cause death and collapse in health systems, in addition to increasingly prevalent sequelae. Among the persistent symptoms presented by patients in the post-COVID-19 phase, we highlight the respiratory ones. The diaphragm - the main muscle of respiration - can also undergo structural and functional changes resulting from SARS-CoV-2 infection. This finding is related to some respiratory sequelae of the disease, such as severe myopathy of the diaphragm with weakness and decreased endurance of the inspiratory muscles, dyspnea, fatigue, and failure in ventilatory weaning. Considering that COVID-19 can affect the respiratory muscles of afflicted individuals, it is reasonable to assume that inspiratory muscle training should improve inspiratory muscle weakness and endurance, and the functional capacity of individuals who had symptomatic COVID-19. Objective: To evaluate the effect of inspiratory muscle training on inspiratory muscle strength and endurance and on the functional capacity of individuals afflicted by COVID-19. Methods: This controlled and randomized clinical trial will be conducted according to the guidelines of the Vila Velha University Ethics Committee (CEP-UVV). The sample will consist of individuals with a positive diagnosis for SARS-CoV-2 infection assessed by means of the reverse transcriptase reaction followed by the polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and who have already undergone the period of active infection. These individuals will be invited to participate in the study as soon as they are evaluated by the cardiopulmonary rehabilitation service. Those who meet all the inclusion criteria, agree to participate, and sign the free and informed consent form (FICF), will be randomly assigned to two groups, the control group (CG, n = 21) and the treatment group (TG, n = 21). The initial evaluation will consist of anamnesis, measurement of indirect blood pressure, heart rate, and peripheral oxygen saturation by portable pulse oximeter, analysis of maximum inspiratory pressure (MIP), dynamic inspiratory muscle strength index (S-Index), and endurance of the inspiratory muscles - which will be collected using a digital training device (PowerBreathe KH2), in addition to functional assessment through the 1-minute sit-to-stand test. The reassessment will take place six weeks after the start of the program and the same data will be collected at the participants' homes. Both groups will undergo the rehabilitation protocol, consisting of muscle strengthening and aerobic training, with individual assessment of exercise intensity. The treated group will undergo inspiratory muscle training through linear pressure load, using the POWERbreathe Classic Medic® device to perform two sets of 30 repetitions daily for six weeks. The same physical therapist will oversee the training sessions of all patients. Statistical analysis: Data normality will be tested using the Shapiro-Wilk test. To analyze the differences between groups, we will use the t-test for parametric data and the Wilcoxon test for non-parametric data. The level of significance will be set at 5% (p < 0.05). Data will be analyzed using the SPSS 8.0 software and the results expressed as mean ± standard deviation or median and interquartile range.

The investigators conducted a single-center, open-label, parallel-group randomized controlled trial to assess the efficacy and safety of a Chinese herb compound granule Huashi Baidu granule (HSBDG) in pediatric patients with laboratory-confirmed mild COVID-19. 108 recruited children (aged 3 to 18 years) with laboratory-confirmed mild COVID-19 were randomly allocated 2:1 to receive oral HSBDG for 5 consecutive days (intervention group) and to receive compound pholcodine oral solution for 5 consecutive days (control group). The negative conversion time of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid and symptom scores were recorded.

This placebo-controlled five-day study will be performed on 100 hospitalized COVID-19 patients with vitamin D insufficiency randomized into two groups. Vitamin D in the form of a sublingual sprayable microemulsion (LYL love your life® sunD3 LYLmicro™) is given three times daily after breakfast, lunch, and dinner (daily dose 12,000 IU) to patients with blood vitamin D levels below 30 ng/ml. The control (placebo) group recieves a placebo spray in the same daily regimen.

This is a phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study to evaluate safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics of ASC10 tablets and an open-label, crossover design to evaluate the food effect on PK of ASC10 in healthy subjects

The immunogenicity and safety profiles of AdCLD-CoV19-1 (5.0×10^10 VP/dose) will be assessed for 1-dose or 2-dose regimen in SARS-CoV-2 seronegative healthy adults.

The aim of this study was to quantify the improvement in olfaction of 27 post-COVID-19 patients, after three intreventions of intranasal insulin during a four week period, with the help of the Threshold, Discrimination and Identification (TDI) score evaluated with Sniffin Sticks®.
