Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

This is a collaborative study between Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals and up to 9 other clinical centers across the US to determine the effect of nintedanib on slowing the rate of lung disease in patients who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, and have ongoing lung injury more than 30 days out from their diagnosis. Required one of the following after diagnosis with SARS-CoV-2: supplemental oxygen by nasal cannula, high flow oxygen, non invasive ventilation such as CPAP or BIPAP, or mechanical ventilation or a history of desaturation below 90%.

The aim is to explore the feasibility and safety of urine alkalinisation in critically ill patients with COVID-19.

Treatment of mild COVID-19 is basically performed at an outpatient clinic, then when the symptom and clinical findings exacerbate to a moderate level, patients are admitted. There is no standard treatment for mild cases. This study will investigate whether ivermectin administration suppresses the replication of SARS-CoV-2 in mild to moderate COVID-19 by investigating the negative rate of SARS-CoV-2 PCR by a randomized controlled trial. Subjects are assigned to two groups, the placebo group, and the ivermectin group. The target number of each treatment arm is 120, a total of 240 cases. A single oral administration of 200 ㎍/kg of ivermectin or an ivermectin-free placebo will be administered on an empty stomach. Time to negativization of SARS-CoV-2 PCR as the primary endpoint with additional efficacy and safety of the process will be investigated.

A preparation of CimertrA, comprising Artemisinin, Curcumin, and Boswellia, and Vitamin C in a nanoparticular formulation, is proposed as a treatment for the disease associated with the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. This initiative is presented under the urgent circumstances of the fulminant pandemic caused by this lethal disease, which is known as COVID-19 and has spread across the globe causing death and disrupting the normal function of modern society. The grounds for the proposal are rooted in existing knowledge on the components and pharmacological features of this formulation and their relevance to the current understanding of the disease process being addressed. The severe acute respiratory syndrome-associated coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) illness results from the immediate response to the viral infection as well as from a subsequent host inflammatory response. Systemic proinflammatory cytokines and biomarkers are elevated as the disease progresses towards its advanced stages, and correlate with worse chances of survival. Serum cytokine levels that are elevated in patients with Covid-19-associated cytokine storm include interleukin-1β, interleukin-6, IP-10, TNF, interferon-γ, macrophage inflammatory protein (MIP) 1α and 1β, and VEGF. Higher interleukin-6 levels are strongly associated with shorter survival. The relative frequencies of circulating activated CD4+ and CD8+ T cells and plasmablasts are increased in Covid-19. In addition to the elevated systemic cytokine levels and activated immune cells, several clinical and laboratory abnormalities, such as elevated CRP and d-dimer levels, hypoalbuminemia, renal dysfunction, and effusions, are also observed in Covid-19. Laboratory test results reflecting hyper inflammation and tissue damage were found to predict worsening outcomes in Covid-19. CimetrA, comprising Artemisinin, Curcumin, Boswellia, and Vitamin C in a nanoparticular formulation, has been studied on patients with COVID-19 in a randomized double-blind control Phase II study (MGC-006 - under a previous product name - ArtemiC). The study product demonstrated excellent safety and efficacy profiles. Experiments performed in vitro with CimetrA demonstrated the ability to reduce cytokine elevation in response to stimulation of human PBMC preparations. The currently proposed Multi-center multinational-controlled study is designed to include 252 adult patients who suffer from moderate COVID-19 infection. Safety will be assessed through collection and analysis of adverse events, blood and urine laboratory assessments, and vital signs. After the screening visit, the study drug will be administrated twice a day morning and evening (every 12 hours) during (day 1 and day 2) The patients will be randomized in 1:1:1 ratio to study drug (CimetrA) in addition to Standard of Care (Arm 1 (CimetrA-1) or Arm 2 (CimetrA-2)) or Placebo in addition to Standard of Care (Arm 3).

This is a randomized, open label, adaptive platform trial to compare the effectiveness of antithrombotic and additional strategies for prevention of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 positive inpatients

This is a a randomized double blind placebo controlled Phase 2 trial with a 12 patient lead-in to evaluate safety, prior to full enrollment to an additional 28 patients (for a total of 40 patients) to assess efficacy of decitabine in the treatment of critically ill patients with COVID-ARDS. The patients will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive standard of care plus Decitabine or standard of care plus saline based placebo. The primary objective is to determine safety and efficacy of decitabine for COVID-19 ARDS based on clinical improvement on a 6-point clinical scale.

ULSC-CV-01 is a clinical trial that comprises both Phase 1 and Phase 2a, which will be conducted sequentially. This trial will evaluate the safety and potential efficacy of allogeneic Umbilical Cord Lining Stem Cells (ULSC), which are a type of umbilical cord tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), with intravenous (IV) administration in hospitalized patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19.

This open-label, randomized, and controlled clinical trial aims to determine the feasibility and effectiveness of using NBT-NM108, a novel botanical-based fixed-combination drug, to modulate the gut microbiota and treat early-stage suspected or confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 patients.

This is a multi-center, randomized, placebo controlled, interventional phase 2A trial to evaluate the safety profile and potential efficacy of multi-dosing of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) for patients with SARS-CoV-2 associated Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). After informed consent, treatment assignment will be made by computer-generated randomization to administer either MSC or vehicle placebo control with a 2:1 allocation to the MSC: placebo arm.

The principal objective of the CONFIDENT trial is to assess the efficacy of two units (400-500 mL in total) of convalescent plasma, as compared to Standard of Care (SoC), to reduce day-28 mortality in patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia who require mechanical ventilation.
