Active clinical trials for "Coronavirus Infections"

The scientific community is in search for novel therapies that can help to face the ongoing epidemics of novel Coronavirus (SARS-Cov-2) originated in China in December 2019. At present, there are no proven interventions to prevent progression of the disease. Some preliminary data on SARS pneumonia suggest that inhaled Nitric Oxide (NO) could have beneficial effects on SARS-CoV-2 due to the genomic similarities between this two coronaviruses. In this study we will test whether inhaled NO therapy prevents progression in patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 disease.

This study is a Phase 1 / 2 trial to determine the safety and efficacy of CYNK-001, an immunotherapy containing Natural Killer (NK) cells derived from human placental CD34+ cells and culture-expanded, in patients with moderate COVID-19 disease.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of leronlimab (PRO 140) administered as weekly subcutaneous injection in subjects with severe or critical COVID-19 disease.

The study is a prospective, randomized, controlled investigation designed for comparison of two groups for the reduction of respiratory distress in a CoViD-19 population, using gammaCore Sapphire (nVNS) plus standard of care (active) vs. standard of care alone (SoC), the control group. The gammaCore® (nVNS) treatments will be used acutely and prophylactically. The aims of this study are to summarize and compare the incidence of clinical events and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels in patients randomized to use of gammaCore Sapphire plus standard of care vs standard of care alone in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19. Secondary objectives are demonstrate the safety of gammaCore Sapphire use in patients hospitalized for CoViD-19.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of a 30-week aerobic exercise therapy program in cancer patients recovering from COVID-19. The study will look at whether the aerobic exercise therapy causes few or mild side effects in participants. Aerobic exercise is physical activity that uses the large muscle groups (muscles in your legs, buttocks, back, and chest) and can be performed for several minutes at a time. The aerobic exercise therapy being used in this study will be a walking program that will be adjusted so it matches participant fitness levels (how much exercise you can handle).

The overarching goal of the Master Protocol is to find effective strategies for inpatient management of patients with COVID-19. Therapeutic goals for patients hospitalized for COVID-19 include hastening recovery and preventing progression to critical illness, multiorgan failure, or death. Our objective is to determine whether modulating the host tissue response improves clinical outcomes among patients with COVID-19.

Our overarching goal is to improve the outcomes of critically ill COVID-19 patients with or at risk for development of acute kidney injury (AKI). The objective of this study is to determine the role of a protocol to manage urine alkalization using a simple medication that has been used for a very long time, is safe, and without significant side-effects. We aim to determine the feasibility and safety of a urine alkalinization protocol for the prevention of AKI in patients testing positive for COVID-19.

ACT is a randomized clinical trial to assess therapies to reduce the clinical progression of COVID-19.

The antifibrotic agents, namely pirfenidone and nintedanib have been found to be effective in the treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Nintedanib has also been found to be effective in treating systemic sclerosis-related interstitial lung disease (ILD) and non-IPF progressive fibrosing ILDs. Pirfenidone has also been found beneficial unclassifiable ILDs. Whether these drugs would be effective in treating post-COVID lung fibrosis also is unknown. As the final pathway of lung fibrosis appears to be common among different diffuse parenchymal lung diseases (DPLDs), it is hoped that these antifibrotic agents might be helpful in post-COVID fibrosis. There are no randomized studies that have assessed the role of pirfenidone or nintedanib in post COVID fibrosis. In the current study, we aim to assess the efficacy and safety of pirfenidone and compare it with nintedanib in the treatment of post-COVID lung fibrosis.

Study hypothesis: the viral neutralizing monoclonal antibodies Tiksagevimab/Cilgavimab and Regdanvimab have high neutralizing activity against SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus, including Omicron strain, and may be effective in treating patients with moderate to severe COVID-19. Description of the clinical study: Administration of monoclonal antibodies as antiviral therapy to patients with covid-19 and further Assesment of viral neutralizing monoclonal antibodies (Tiksagevimab/Cilgavimab and Regdanvimab) efficacy for treatment of new coronavirus infection (COVID-19) in adult patients. Participation of patients of both sexes aged 18 years or older with COVID-19 of moderate to severe course, hospitalized. Inclusion of 82 patients in the study: 38 in the tixagevimab/cilgavimab group (at a dose of 150+150 mg), 24 patients in the regdanvimab group (at a dose of 40 mg/kg body weight) and 20 patients in the tixagevimab/cilgavimab group (at a dose of 300+300 mg).
