Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

The COVID-19 pandemic has been characterized by high morbidity and mortality, especially in certain subgroups of patients. To date, no treatment has been shown to be effective in patients with early-onset disease and mild symptoms. Experimental studies have demonstrated a potential anti-inflammatory role of Fluvoxamine, Fluoxetine, Budesonide and Pegilatrd Interferon Lambda in SARS-CoV-2 infections and observational studies have suggested a reduced complications in patients with COVID-19 disease.

Adults (aged 18-65 years) recently diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection who use a 4-day combined intervention of nasal washes with 1% baby shampoo solution and oral gargles with Listerine Antiseptic® will have a reduced SARS-CoV-2 viral load compared to those using nasal and oral washes with normal saline. This combined intervention should be acceptable, tolerable and safe in this population. To test this, investigators are conducting a trial comparing the efficacy of a number of washes in reducing the oral and nasal SARS-CoV-2 viral load among adults.

This is a Phase II multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized study in Patients with moderate to severe lung injury due to COVID-19 or other potential viral and bacterial pathogens.

To investigate the safety and tolerance of a single infusion of ProTrans® in subjects with "severe" respiratory complications associated with pneumonia caused by COVID-19, Influenza A, Metapneumovirus or RSV infection.

According to WHO, current evidence suggests some people experience a variety of long-term effects after they recover from their initial illness. These effects are collectively known as post COVID-19 condition or "long COVID. While most people who develop COVID-19 fully recover, some people develop effects like fatigue, breathlessness, functional activities and cognitive dysfunction. At present, there is no specific medication therapy for people with post COVID-19 condition.

Reduced subjective and objective functional capacity performance are reported after COVID-19 in a large proportion of subjects. The aim of this study is to examine the feasibility and effect of using an e-health tool for guidance and tracking of exercise training in a general population of adults previously infected by COVID19.

The purpose of this trial is to evaluate immunogenicity and safety of CVXGA administered as a single intranasal dose against SARS-CoV-2 S-protein in participants. The trial will enroll up to 400 healthy participants, age 18-80 years.

COVID-19 is associated with a high risk of complications from the central nervous system. Syndrome of cognitive disorders- in terms of memory, attention or executive functions among COVID-19 convalescents is often called brain fog (covid fog - CF). CF leads to psychomotor retardation and chronic fatigue syndrome, resulting in poor functioning and low quality of life. CF may affect up to 81% of patients after COVID-19. Prevalence of CF may be even greater among patients with severe forms of COVID-19. In the preliminary assessment authors found that 83% of COVID-19 inpatients had at least mild cognitive impairment. Moreover, SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with higher incidence of depression and anxiety disorders. CF pathogenesis is not fully understood. There exist no strict diagnostic criteria for it, as well as no therapeutic recommendations. Health care systems of many countries, including Poland, lack therapeutic programs addressed at patients with CF. Tianeptine may be a drug with potentially beneficial effects in CF. Neuroprotective, antidepressive, sleep-improving and anxiolytic properties of tianeptine allow it to choose as a candidate for CF amelioration. There is also data supporting the thesis that patients with CF may benefit from short-term group therapy. It has been proven to improve quality of life, reduce stress, and improve cognitive function in non-MC cognitive disorders. Expected research results: A database will be created from the collected clinical, laboratory and additional data. Statistical models will be created to predict: the duration of disorders, response to therapy, the final result of treatment. Among the markers of CNS damage, those which correlates with the patient's condition will be selected. The study will allow to estimate the prevalence of CF in the population. PET-CT and auditory evoked potentials also will be used to expand knowledge in the field of CF. Based on the existing data, an improvement is expected in all investigated participants as a result of rehabilitation and psychotherapy. Additional improvement is expected in the tianeptine group. Improvement will be defined as: reduction in the severity of anxiety and depression disorders, reduction in the severity of cognitive disorders, improvement in the quality of life. The results will be used to develop a new diagnostic and therapeutic pathway and a comprehensive intervention program in CF.

This is a phase II randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy of topical intranasal treatment of beclomethasone vs. placebo for improved olfactory function.

The purpose of this study is to investigate if receiving doses of arginine (a protein in the body) will improve mitochondria function in children with COVID-19. The study will be performed in Children's Healthcare of Atlanta, Egleston campus. Patients will be randomized to receive one of three doses of arginine three times a day for five days or at discharge whichever comes first.
