Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

The primary aim of the proposed research is to test the role of a newly developed reusable form-fitting fabric mask in reducing the spread of COVID-19 in a community setting comprising undergraduate students living in dormitories at the Georgia Institute of Technology (Georgia Tech). A corollary aim is to assess the role of wearing any type of face covering in reducing spread in the same community setting. A final aim is to assess the social, behavioral, aesthetic, and usability aspects of wearing face coverings in public settings.

This study aimed to examine the effects of a public health nursing intervention plus m-Health applications for hypertension management on enhancing the Self-care, systolic and diastolic blood pressure, and quality of life in older adults during the lockdown period in Jordan. Study Hypothesis: There are no differences between the three groups in: H01 HTN self-care (SC-HI) score. H02 Health-related quality of life (SF-36) score. H03 The management of systolic and diastolic BP levels.

This study is a global multi-center , case-driven, randomized, double-blinded, and placebo-controlled phase Ⅲ clinical trial of the SARS-CoV-2 inactivated vaccine manufactured by Sinovac Research & Development Co., Ltd. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two dose of CoronaVac® against RT-PCR confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 cases in participants aged 6 months to 17 years.

This is a single-blind, randomised controlled clinical trial to determine the reactogenicity and immunogenicity of severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) vaccines (Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna) as booster dose in adults, who have previously received either Pfizer-BioNTech or AstraZeneca as their primary doses. Both fractional and standard doses of Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna will be tested. The trial intervention will be given in line with Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation (ATAGI) recommendations for booster vaccine doses which allows booster doses from 5 months onwards . There will be a total of 8 groups, with 100 individuals of even spread of participants above and below 50 years in each group. The trial will be single site, based at Royal Children's Hospital, Melbourne, Australia

Study design Phase 2, double blinded, single-center, 1:1 randomized clinical trial of Chloroquine vs Chloroquine/losartan for the treatment of SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia in non-critically ill subjects

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter, Phase 3 study to evaluate if high-dose Octagam 10% therapy can stabilize or improve clinical status in patients with severe Coronavirus disease

The purpose of this study is to investigate whether nicotinamide riboside supplementation can attenuate the severity of SARS-CoV-2 infections in elderly patients. A major event in aging is the loss of the central metabolite nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) that appear to be important in the proinflammatory environment that occur during aging. Notably, recent work from our and other groups suggest that aging can be ameliorated by even a short-term treatment of the NAD+ precursor nicotinamide riboside. Nicotinamide riboside has recently been shown to be able to return aging tissues to a younger state even after short term treatment. This vitamin B3- analog is naturally occurring, is readily taken up through oral administration and has been tested in human trials with few side effects. In this randomized double blinded case-control trial, the investigators will treat elderly (>70 year old) COVID19 patients with 1 g of nicotinamide riboside (NR-E) or placebo for 2 weeks and investigate if this affects the clinical course of the disease.

This is a randomized study to assess safety, pharmacokinetics, immunogenicity, and efficacy of BAT2020 in hospitalized patients infected with COVID-19. This study is composed of 2 Parts: a single ascending dose (Part 1) and single dose(s) tested in parallel with a double-blind, placebo-controlled design (Part 2). Patients also will receive best available standard of care (SOC) treatment. A data and safety monitoring board (DSMB) will be set up for the study.

At the beginning COVID-associated lung injury was considered as typical ARDS, hence respiratory and nonrespiratory treatments were delivered according to general principles for this kind of illness. There is hypothesis that in predisposed individuals, alveolar viral damage is followed by an inflammatory reaction and by microvascular pulmonary thrombosis. The investigators suggest that thrombolytic therapy may be beneficial when compared to standard care in patients with SARS-CoV-2 and severe respiratory failure.

Based on findings of the interim analysis of the ACTIVATE study showing 53% decrease of the incidence of all new infections with BCG vaccination, a new trial is designed aiming to validate if BCG can protect against COVID-19 (Corona Virus Disease-19).The aim of the study is to demonstrate in a double-blind, placebo-controlled approach if vaccination of participants susceptible to COVID-19 with BCG vaccine may modulate their disease susceptibility for COVID-19. This will be validated using both clinical and immunological criteria. At the same time, a sub-study will be conducted and the mechanism of benefit from BCG vaccination by assessing its effect on vascular endothelial function and mononuclear blood cells will be studied
