Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

A total of 1200 people aged 18 years and older who have completed two or three-dose inactivated COVID-19 vaccine for 6-18 months will be recruited in this study. Subjects will be received 1 dose at day 0 as a booster vaccination.Immunogenicity and safety of Recombinant SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine (CHO Cell) LYB001 will be evaluated.

High frequency oscillatory ventilation (HFOV), as an ideal lung protection ventilation method, has been gradually applied to neonatal intensive care treatment, and is currently recommended as a rescue method for neonatal acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) after failure of conventional mechanical ventilation. Although its ability to improve oxygenation and enhance carbon dioxide (CO2) clearance has been repeatedly demonstrated in laboratory studies, its impact on the clinical results of these patients is still uncertain. Noninvasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation (nHFOV) combines the advantages of HFOV and non-invasive ventilation, and has become the current research focus in this field. It is recommended to use it after the failure of routine non-invasive ventilation treatment to avoid intubation. For the treatment of intubation, there is still a lack of large-scale clinical trials to systematically explore its efficacy. The gradual increase of clinical application of nHFOV has also enriched its application in the treatment of other diseases. At present, non-invasive high-frequency oscillatory ventilation has not been applied to the study of adult COVID-19 with acute hypoxemia, which will be the first study in this field.

Open prospective non-comparative study of safety and tolerability of the drug (GamCoviMab) with the description of the parameters of the therapeutic efficacy in patients with confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis.

The COVID-19 pandemic, a disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has generated an inexplicable scenario for global health, causing different complications and degrees of functional impairment in millions of people who manage to recover from the disease. The respiratory system is the main system to be directly impacted during COVID-19 infection, and its treatment can generate changes in the respiratory function of individuals surviving the exacerbation of the disease, which may promote subjective and quantitative changes in the respiratory pattern, requiring an evaluation with high-cost instruments, an evaluation necessary to outline a better planning therapeutic for this population. The goal of this study is evaluate the breathing pattern variables using a device called RESPIRATORY DIAGNOSTIC ASSISTANT (RDA) and verify the relationship between the breathing pattern variables with the variables of pulmonary function, respiratory muscle strength and respiration in patients after involvement by COVID-19. This is a observational and validation study, prospective with follow-up of respiratory function for 6 months, a subproject linked to the project already approved by the research ethics committee under opinion: 4.362.977/4.596.02. Data collection will be carried out in a single day and divided into a few steps that will take place at the cardiopulmonary physiotherapy laboratory located at the physiotherapy department of the Federal University of Pernambuco. The first step is to conduct an interview with the participants to collect clinical data and perform a physical examination. Subsequently, a multidimensional evaluation of respiratory function will be performed. Statistical analysis will be performed using the Statistical Package For Social Science (SPSS) software version 20.0 for Windows. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test will be used to verify the type of distribution, regarding the normality of the variables, and the significance level adopted will be 95% (α <0.05) for all analyses. Finally, the data obtained will be presented in tables and/or graphs.

Knowing that the vaccine antigen includes the ACE2 binding moiety (RBD), the hypothesis is that circulating vaccine antigen could reduce the enzymatic activity of ACE2, and thus increase circulating AngII concentration, monocyte ROS production and lymphocyte apoptosis. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that the Spike protein of SARSCoV-1, which uses the same receptor as SARS-CoV-2, induces a decrease in expression and activation of the Angiotensin II pathway in mice (Kuba et al. 2005).

A randomized, double-Blind, placebo-controlled trial aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of sivelestat on treating adult patients with COVID-19-related acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of tetrandrine tablets in preventing the progression of COVID-19 from severe to critical.

Retrospective analysis of real-world disease outcomes in non-severe COVID-19 patients with high risk factors of progression to severe disease, including death, without definitive anti-SARS-CoV-2 treatment

The study staff will conduct a hybrid type 1 effectiveness implementation 2-arm trail with 360 Black young adults from Alabama, Georgia, and North Carolina. Participants will be randomized to receive the standard of care (control) or the TT-C intervention arm, each with a balance of 180 participants. Primary effectiveness outcome is COVID-19 vaccine uptake define as receipt of any vaccine (primary series or secondary booster). Secondary effectiveness outcomes are vaccine hesitancy, confidence, and knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs. The study staff will also conduct qualitative interviews with a group of purposively selected AA-YA participants (est. n=12-16) and site staff (est. n=6-8) to assess barriers and facilitators to implementation. The hypothesis is that the intervention arm will be more effective than the control arm at increasing vaccine uptake.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) which is caused by the virus SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in an ongoing global pandemic. It is unclear whether the relatively low number of reported cases of COVID-19 in people with CF (pwCF) is due to enhanced infection prevention practices or whether pwCF have protective genetic/immune factors. This study aims to prospectively assess the proportion of pwCF, including both adults and children with CF who have evidence of SARS-CoV-2 antibodies over a two-year period. This study will also examine whether pwCF who have antibodies for SARS-CoV-2 have a different clinical presentation and what impact this has on their CF disease. The proposed study will recruit pwCF from paediatric and adult CF centres in Europe. Serological testing to detect antibodies will be performed on blood samples taken at month 0, 6, 12, 18 and 24 with additional time-points if bloodwork is available via normal clinical care. Clinical data on, lung function, CF-related medical history, pulmonary exacerbations, antibiotic use, and microbiology and vaccination receipt, will be collected during routine clinical assessments. Associations will be examined between socio-demographic and clinical variables and serologic testing. The effects of SARS-CoV-2 infection on clinical outcomes and analyse end-points will be examined to explore any age-related or gender-based differences, as well as subgroup analysis of outcomes in lung-transplant recipients and pwCF receiving CFTR modulator therapies. As pwCF receive COVID-19 vaccination a comparison of the development and progression of anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies in pwCF following natural infection and vaccination SARS-CoV-2 over time will be performed.
