Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Comparison outcomes of a large cohort of moderate and severe COVID-19 patients received remdesivir alone with patients who received remdesivir in combination with lopinavir/ ritonavir in addition to standard management.

This is a phase 1b, open-label study in adult healthy subjects. This clinical trial is designed to assess the safety, reactogenicity, and immunogenicity the combination of hAd5-S-Fusion+N-ETSD (Suspension for injection) and hAd5-S-Fusion+N-ETSD (Oral capsule) and to select an optimal combination dose for future studies.

An open-label, 56 day, single-center, exploratory, proof-of-concept study of the anti-viral effect of voclosporin (VCS) with an extended safety follow-up, up to 1 year. Study population are adult KTRs with positive SARS-CoV-2 infection with mild to moderate symptoms. At study entry, subjects are on standard therapy of dual immunosuppressive treatment of prednisone and tacrolimus (TAC), following randomization, 10 out of 20 subjects will remain on this therapy for the duration of the study, while the other 10 subjects will switch to VCS.

In this randomized controlled trial (RCT), severe cases of COVID-19 infection will be treated with secretome of hypoxia-mesenchymal stem cells. The improvement in clinical, laboratory, and radiological manifestations will be evaluated in treated patients compared with the control group.

The human immune system is designed to protect individuals from external sources of infection and internal cell mutation. It works effectively and efficiently until inflammation disturbs its functioning. Once compromised by inflammation, the immune system loses its capacity to recognize antigens and dependably defend the body against disease and illness. When COVID-19 invades humans, it causes an immune-storm (cytokine-storm) that can directly damage the organ(s), leading to death. The virus is an antigen - a trigger - but it is not the actual reason that causes organ failure and death; instead, it is the body's over immune reaction that is the cause. In attempting to protect the body, the immune system overreacts to the antigen, which includes the infected cells, which causes a cytokine-storm, and the subsequent and rapid shut down of the infected individual's organ(s)' structure, leaving the body without sufficient strength or time to fight back. When the medical herbs join the body, it can slow down the immune reaction. Medical herbs benefit the physical body; they protect the cells and organism structure and mediate the immune response, allowing the T cells to kill the virus (mutated or not) internally. Such success has been achieved by the All Natural Medicine Clinic during pre-clinical trials. This clinical study's goal is to demonstrate that the immune system can be rebuilt and retrained, using natural medicine (i.e., medical herbs), to kill the virus without causing the immune storm, and to explore the mechanism by which these medical herbs, which have been used for thousands of years for healing, achieve results.

The 8-week, Prospective, Randomized controlled of IntraDermal administration of Comirnaty® 6 microgram compare to Intramuscular Comirnaty® 30 microgram by 28 days interval Efficacy Study in 4 groups of healthy volunteer ( 1 people who complete sinovac vaccination 2 people who received 1 dosage of AstraZeneca vaccine 3 naive vaccination 4 any other vaccination not in 1-3 with anti Spike antibody less than 650 AU/ ml) . Comparison of antibody level and T cell response to SAR-CoV-2 antigen in vitro after 28 day post vaccination is primary outcome and the side effect as well as infection rate in 8 weeks is secondary outcomes.

This study will test the efficacy of treadmill exercise combined with supplemental oxygen during exercise and recovery for the treatment of persistent post-acute COVID-19 symptoms. Participants will be pseudo-randomized (stratified by age) to one of four conditions for 8 treatment sessions: 1) treadmill exercise plus supplemental oxygen, 2) treadmill exercise plus air, 3) supplemental oxygen only, 4) air only. All participants will then cross-over and receive 16 additional sessions of treadmill exercise plus supplemental oxygen.

This is a phase I/II study with Amorphous Calcium Carbonate (ACC) administered sublingual and in Inhalation concomitantly with BAT (Best Available Care) as Compared to Placebo and BAT for the treatment of Moderate to Severe COVID-19 patients. The purpose of this study is to assess the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of Amorphous Calcium Carbonate (ACC).

Low doses of radiation in the form of chest x-rays has been in the past to treat people with pneumonia. This treatment was thought to reduce inflammation and was found to be effective without side effects. However, it was an expensive treatment and was eventually replaced with less expensive treatment options like penicillin. The COVID-19 virus has emerged recently, causing high rates of pneumonia in people. The authors believe that giving a small dose of radiation to the lungs may reduce inflammation and neutralize the pneumonia caused by COVID-19. For this study, the x-ray given is called radiation therapy. Radiation therapy uses high-energy X-ray beams from a large machine to target the lungs and reduce inflammation. Usually, it is given at much higher doses to treat cancers. The purpose of this study is to find out if adding a single treatment of low-dose x-rays to the lungs might reduce the amount of inflammation in the lungs from COVID-19 infection, which could reduce the need for a ventilator or breathing tube.

This is a randomized, randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy and safety of Neurokinin-1 Receptor (NK-1R) 80 mg orally given daily to treat cytokine storm causing inflammatory lung injury and respiratory failure associated with severe or critical COVID-19 infection. NK-1R is the receptor of Substance P (SP) and responsible for its functionality. Here, we propose that SP via its tachykinin receptor, NK-1R may cause inflammation in Covid-19 infection. It may initiate the cytokine storming via binding to its receptor NK-1 and many inflammatory mediators are released. If SP release is reduced by NK-1R antagonist, it may control the cytokine storming and hence the hyper-responsiveness of the respiratory tract through reduction in cytokine storming It may serve as the treatment strategy for Covid-19 infected patients. Patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria will be enrolled after giving consent. They wll be randomized to treatment with either NK-1R antagonist or placebo in addition to Dexamethasone as a standard treatment given to both groups for Covid-19 infection as per the protocol at the treating hospital. Inflammatory lab markers as detailed should be collected once per day in the morning, preferably at the same time every morning. All enrolled participants will have whole blood collected for whole genome sequencing.
