Active clinical trials for "Coronavirus Infections"

Multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel, blinded, interventional, treatment clinical trial with two arms. Population: 500 Hospitalized patients with pneumonia derived from COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease-19), either confirmed by RT-PCR (Real Time polymerase chain reaction), or suggested by typical findings on the computed tomography scan symptomatic. Experimental group: nitazoxanide 500mg 8 / 8 hours for 5 days. Control group: placebo 8/8 hours for 5 days.

The overall objective of the study is to determine the therapeutic effect and tolerance of Tocilizumab combined with Dexamethasone in patients with moderate, severe pneumonia or critical pneumonia associated with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Tocilizumab (TCZ) is an anti-human IL-6 receptor monoclonal antibody that inhibits signal transduction by binding sIL-6R and mIL-6R. The study has a cohort multiple Randomized Controlled Trials (cmRCT) design. Randomization will occur prior to offering Dexamethasone alone or Dexamethasone +Tocilizumab administration to patients enrolled in the CORIMUNO-19 cohort. Tocilizumab will be administered to consenting adult patients hospitalized with COVID-19 either diagnosed with moderate or severe pneumonia requiring no mechanical ventilation or critical pneumonia requiring mechanical ventilation. Patients who will chose not to receive Tocilizumab will receive standard of cares. Outcomes of Tocilizumab-treated patients will be compared with outcomes of standard of care (including Dexamethasone) treated patients

This multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized Phase 2 trial will study the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl in patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19. The trial will include approximately 40 patients and is designed to provide an early interim analysis of safety. Patients will be randomized using permuted block randomization in a 1:1 fashion to either once-daily administration of bardoxolone methyl (20 mg) or matching placebo and treatment will be administered for the duration of hospitalization (until recovery), with a maximum treatment duration of 29 days.

This is a phase 1 clinical trial to verify the safety and efficacy of DW-MSC in COVID-19 patients. A total of 9 subjects are randomly allocated. Subjects who meet the final inclusion and exclusion criteria are randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or control group (placebo group) in a ratio of 1:1:1. Subjects assigned to the test groups were administered intravenously once with 5 x 10^7cells of DW-MSC for the low-dose group or 1 x 10^8cells for the high-dose group after registration. Subjects assigned to the control group were administered with placebo in the same manner as the test drug (DW-MSC). At this time, all of the existing standard co-treatment are allowed. DW-MSC is adjunct therapy to standard therapy. This clinical trial is a double-blind trial, in which a randomized method will be used. To maintain the double-blindness of the study, statistician who do not participate in this study independently generate randomization code. Subjects will be randomized to the test groups (low-dose group and high-dose group) or the control group (placebo group) in a 1:1:1 ratio. After the completion of the trial, the randomization code will be disclosed after unlocking the database and unblinding procedures. Follow Up period: observed for 28 days after a single administration

This pilot study will assess the safety and effectiveness of UV light treatment in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.

Critically ill covid-19 patients may require respiratory support including mechanical ventilation. After an initial period with an endotracheal tube, a tracheotomy is performed in order to reduce potential airway complications, reduce the need of sedation and facilitate the monitoring and recovery. The optimal timing of this surgical procedure is, however, still unknown. The aim of this randomized, controlled trial is to compare the outcome of early (within 7 days after intubation) vs late (at least 10 days after intubation) tracheotomy in covid-19 patients. The need for mechanical ventilation, sedation, additional oxygen support, frequency of complications, duration at the ICU and mortality through the ICU stay will be evaluated and compared.

This is a prospective, phase 2, multicenter, randomized, double blind, placebo controlled, parallel group study to assess the safety and efficacy of CSL312 administered intravenously, in combination with standard of care (SOC) treatment, in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID 19)

This study is 'A Randomized Phase 1 Double Blind Placebo Controlled, Single-Dose, Dose-Escalation Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability and Pharmacokinetics of Orally Inhaled Aerosolized Hydroxychloroquine Sulfate in Healthy Adult Volunteers.' The primary objectives are as follows: To assess the safety and tolerability of AHCQ administered as a single dose by oral inhalation in healthy individuals at escalating doses until either the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is identified or 1 mL of a 50 mg/mL solution is administered. To determine the recommended Phase 2a dose (RP2D). Secondary objectives: • To characterize pharmacokinetics (PK) of single dose AHCQ in healthy individuals.

Various guidelines for endotracheal intubation (insertion of breathing tube for mechanical ventilation) of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients recommend the use of videolaryngoscope (medical device used for intubation that has a camera to visualize the vocal cords between which the breathing tube will pass) over direct laryngoscope (conventionally-used medical device for intubation that depends on anesthetist's direct visualization of vocal cords). The reasons for this recommendation are to maximize the distance between the medical personnel and the patient's face during intubation to decrease the risk of viral particles transmission and to improve intubation success. For patients infected with COVID-19, Powered Air Purifying Respirator (PAPR) is recommended as an alternative to N95 masks during aerosol-generating procedures such as intubation because N95 masks may not fully protect medical personnel from viral transmission during intubation. There is no evidence to suggest that videolaryngoscope (VL) is superior to direct laryngoscope (DL) for intubation when PAPR is donned. The purpose of this study is to determine if McGrath VL is superior to DL for intubation when the anesthetist is wearing a PAPR. The investigators' hypothesis is that McGrath VL will decrease the time to intubation by 20 seconds and more compared to DL when PAPR is donned. The investigators also hope to learn if there is any difference in the difficulties encountered between the use of VL and DL.

This will be a phase 1a randomized, open label, multi-center study with approximately 24 subjects. All subjects will receive standard of care (SOC) per institutional guidelines for treatment of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 infection. In addition to SOC, the brequinar group will receive 5 daily doses of brequinar 100 mg.
