Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

A study on patients who are hospitalized and tested positive for COVID-19 or have a typical CT image of COVID-19 infection, to establish if omega-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid (PUFA) supplementation by intravenous route is a possible treatment option in COVID-19 with minimal risks to the patients.

A randomized controlled trial on using Ivermectin and doxycycline to treat mild-moderate outpatients, severe, and critical inpatients of Coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19) along with standard of care. Seventy Iraqi COVID-19 patients received Ivermectin and Doxycycline plus standard of care versus seventy Iraqi COVID-19 patients received standard of care only. .

The purpose of this study is to measure how well monoclonal antibodies work, either alone or in combination, against the virus that causes COVID-19. Study drug(s) will be given to participants with early symptoms of COVID-19. Samples will be taken from the back of the nose to determine how much virus is in the body at various times during the study. Participation could last about 12 or 24 weeks and includes at least 1 visit to the study site, with the remainder of assessments performed in the home, local clinic, or by phone.

This study will be conducted on eighty patients of both sexes with age ranging from 35 to 45years. The will be recovered from COVID-19 infection with chest symptoms. They will be selected from Nasr city police authority hospital. They will be randomly assigned into 3 equal groups.

The Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has brought about unprecedented social, economic and mental-health challenges, especially for vulnerable populations such as pregnant and post-partum females. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the relations between the fear of COVID-19 and postnatal depression symptoms.

The GW Medical Faculty Associates recently launched a remote monitoring program for patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Patients are provided with a home pulse oximeter and thermometer. Participants complete daily surveys about their symptoms and vital signs and are escalated to receive phone calls and video visits if responses are abnormal. Investigators would like to complete a study of the program to understand: Operational parameters of program performance, such as how many patients were enrolled and how many patients completed monitoring Clinical course of patients, including their reported symptoms over time and clinical endpoints such as hospitalization or ICU admission Patient satisfaction with program

Eligible participants who were active beneficiaries of a large insurer living in Pennsylvania were sent an email encouraging them to download the contact tracing app in Pennsylvania, COVID Alert PA. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of four conditions in a 2 (Self-benefit vs. Other-Benefit) x 2 (Social Norms Present vs. Social Norms absent) design. All participants received an email that said : "COVID Alert PA is the official Exposure Notification App from the Pennsylvania Department of Health. Join Penn Medicine in the fight against COVID-19 and download COVID Alert PA today!" ---Investigators manipulated the content here--- "The app uses Bluetooth to sense when one person is in close contact with another person with the app. If someone tests positive for COVID-19, and they decide to upload the information to the health department, people who have the app and who have been in contact with them will be alerted. If you are interested in downloading the app, please click COVID Alert PA. We appreciate you joining our efforts. Together we can beat COVID-19!" In the Other-Benefit condition, it said: "It can help you reduce your risk of unknowingly spreading the virus to your friends, family, and larger community." In the Self-Benefit condition, it said: "It can help you determine where and when to get testing, and how to get care if you need it." In the Social Norms Present condition, it said: "Over 650,000 Pennsylvanians have already downloaded the app!" In the Social Norms Absent condition, it said the statement about social norms above. Participants who do not open the initial email received a follow-up email.

This is a prospective, observational study. During the study, pregnant women will be followed post COVID-19 vaccination. Injection-site (local) and systemic reaction data will be assessed on vaccination day and during the 7 days following the second vaccination using either identical web-based or paper diaries, depending on study participant preference. Maternal serum samples will be collected for antibody titers relevant to COVID-19 at time points that include: prior to vaccination, ~29 days post second vaccination, and at delivery. At Duke University, maternal and infant cord blood will be collected at delivery and analyzed for the same antibody titers. At other clinical sites, these delivery samples will only be collected if feasible. Pregnant women will be followed through 90 days postpartum. with comprehensive obstetric and neonatal outcomes obtained from medical record review.

To explore the immune response to the COVID-19 vaccine in cancer patients and compare to the general population.

Individuals susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 and the illness it causes (COVID-19) are comprised of heterogeneous populations with a large risk spectrum for more severe disease. Pre-existing risk factors for a more severe course include respiratory and cardiovascular disease, morbid obesity, diabetes, underlying kidney or liver disease, and immunocompromised status. Whether children and young adults with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) receiving immunomodulating biologic and other therapies which are known to increase risk of viral infection are at increased risk of complications from COVID-19 or post-infectious co-morbidities, including the recently described multi inflammatory syndrome (MISC), is entirely unclear. This research focuses on the heretofore uncharacterized immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in children and young adults with IBD or JIA who are receiving maintenance immunosuppressive biologic therapies. Given the large Connecticut based infusion program, in a region of the United States with a recent large outbreak of COVID-19, the investigators have a unique opportunity to address a glaring knowledge gap in this unique pediatric, adolescent, and young adult population. The investigators will longitudinally determine antibody development and durability to SARS-CoV-2 in approximately 450-500 children and young adults with IBD or JIA receiving biologic therapy using a highly sensitive and specific quantitative assay utilizing novel technology. This period will include a return to school or work for many with likely resurgent infections, as well as the possible introduction of anti-SARS CoV-2 vaccines. The specific aim is to study the acute and convalescent antibody responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection in a cohort of children and young adults receiving infusions of biologic therapies for IBD and JIA.
