Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Maraviroc (MVC) is a drug, very well tolerated, it has been seen that MVC has properties of modulating the immune system, exerting an anti-inflammatory effect in different diseases. In COVID-19, very high levels of inflammation occur that cause organs and systems to be damaged. MVC could reduce this inflammation achieving a better prognosis of COVID-19.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) remains a threatening pandemic, due to its rapid transmission, uncertain risk factors for progression that lead to its lethality and yet unsatisfactory antiviral therapy or prophylaxis. The respiratory system remains the most frequently affected by the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-COV-2), with patients either presenting mild illness as well as more severe complications such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) that necessitates admission in Intensive Care Units (ICU). Unfortunately, the remaining patients progress to a second phase-called the inflammatory stage-featuring ARDS, thromboembolic events, and myocardial acute injury. These clinical exacerbation latter predicts poor prognosis associated with an exacerbation of the immune system cascade; a phenomenon known as "cytokine storm". In the context of COVID-19, the hyper inflammation diagnostic criteria are partly defined. Early studies of patients with COVID-19 established independent associations between biomarkers of inflammation, such as C-reactive protein, interleukin [IL]-6, ferritin and D-dimer, and severe disease states that require respiratory support or result in death. The aim of this study was to identify practical blood immune- inflammatory biomarker / ratio that could be used alternatively to IL-6 for predicting severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID- 19) in clinical practice. Another aim is to unveil the association of the pro-inflammatory profile as categorized by the IL-6 levels in patients infected by SARS-COV-2, with disease severity and outcomes of COVID -19.

Background: The first case of Infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) were diagnosed in Wuhan, China in 2019. In the first half of 2020 this disease has already converted into a global pandemic. Objectives: To assess the efficacy of Ivermectin in mild cases of COVID-19 patients on the basis of predefined assessment criteria. Study Settings: Fatima Memorial Hospital, Lahore Study Design: Open label randomized control trial. Duration of Study: From 1st May, 2020 to 30th June, 2020.Patients & Methods: Sample size and technique: Sample size was 50 patients; 25 patients were kept in control group and 25 patients were kept in experimental group

This single-arm, open-label small interventional proof-of-concept (POC) study study aims: to assess the clinical outcomes of patients exhibiting viral respiratory infection (VRI) symptoms and seeking primary healthcare (PHC) services at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, to assess the clinical effectiveness of the Cretan IAMA (CAPeo), a herbal extract combination, for these patients, including in terms of symptom resolution (symptom frequency, duration) and intensity), and to investigate its prophylactic effect in terms of transmission prevention for people cohabiting with the patients exhibiting VRI symptoms.

The SaiseiCovUKR clinical study is a multicentric, randomized trial study targeting patients hospitalized with COVID-19 who do not require mechanical ventilation. This study aims to provide preliminary data on the activity and safety of MAF capsules and M capsules in the target population after 14 days of dosing. MAF capsules and M capsules are dietary supplements targeting the gut's mucosal immunity to control local and systemic inflammation, limiting epithelial damage and preventing the accumulation of pathological macrophage populations at sites of SARS-CoV-2 infection.

A prospective physiologic study, in participants with COVID-19-related pneumonia requiring supplemental oxygen (standard oxygen therapy or high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC)) less than 24 hours. The investigators assessed the effect of prone position on ventilation inhomogeneity and ventilation/perfusion mismatch by electrical impedance tomography (EIT).

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy and safety of Proxalutamide as a treatment for hospitalized COVID-19 male and female patients.

Investigators conducted this study to see the effectiveness of Tocilizumab in COVID-19 participants who were in cytokine release syndrome and there was also a control group who received steroids(RECOVERY TRIAL wasn't published or available at that time) this study was conducted in the early days of 1st wave of COVID in our country Pakistan so it was need of the day to develop some national guidelines on the basis of multiple studies' results from Pakistan.

This is a phase II, observer-blind, multiple-centre, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the immunogenicity, safety, tolerability and lot consistency of 2 doses of UB-612 vaccine in adolescent, younger and elderly adults. Around 3850 adult subjects will be randomized to be composed of the core group, while around 385 adolescents will be randomized to be the supplementary group. Subjects will be unblinded at Visit 5, and subjects in the vaccine group will be encouraged to have 3rd dose of vaccination.

The purpose of this study is to test whether Fisetin, a senolytic drug can assist in the reduction of complications in patients with COVID-19 infection.
