Azithromycin Plus Hydroxychloroquine for COVID-19 Infection
Respiratory Tract Infection ViralThis is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase 3, multi-center trial of the clinical and microbiologic response of patients with a respiratory tract infection (RTI) due to coronavirus treated with a combination of azithromycin and hydroxychloroquine. Approximately 200 patients with symptoms of an RTI who test positive for SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) will receive a combination of azithromycin 500 mg and hydroxychloroquine 600 mg or matching placebos for six consecutive days. There will be two treatment regimens into which patients are randomized so that all patients will receive some active therapy.
In-patient COVID-19 Study of Intranasal Foralumab
Covid19COVID-19 Lower Respiratory Infection1 moreThis is a Phase 2, randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, proof-of-concept study of intranasal foralumab in hospitalized subjects with severe COVID-19 and pulmonary inflammation. Foralumab is a fully human second generation anti-CD3 mAb with a modified Fc unit (two amino acid substitutions) composed of 2 heavy chains with an immunoglobulin (Ig) G1constant region and 2 light chains with a kappa constant region. In a separate Phase 2 randomized, controlled, pilot trial conducted to assess safety, tolerability, and efficacy in 39 patients with mild to moderate COVID-19 in Brazil, showed that intranasal foralumab may be of benefit in modulating immune reactivity and in reducing pulmonary inflammation. Importantly, intranasal administration of foralumab was well tolerated with no clinically significant changes in blood cell counts (including blood lymphocytes), no evidence of hypersensitivity, and no serious adverse events (SAEs) were reported in the study.

Respiratory Tract InfectionThis Phase 2b study will evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of an RSV vaccine in pregnant participants who receive either one of 2 dose levels of the vaccine, formulated with or without aluminum hydroxide, or placebo, and investigate safety and characteristics of antibodies in their infants.

Respiratory Tract InfectionThis phase 2b study will evaluate safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of an RSV vaccine when given together with Tdap in approximately 710 healthy nonpregnant women 18 through 49 years of age. This study will evaluate non-inferiority of RSV vaccine when given with Tdap and vice-versa.
Efficacy of Diclofenac Potassium vs Nimesulide in the Treatment of Fever and Pain in Children With...
Upper Respiratory Tract InfectionsThis is a local, phase IV, open-label, randomized, head to head study of children aged 3 to 7 years. The objective of the study is to compare the efficacy of a single dose of both diclofenac potassium and nimesulide in the reduction of fever and pain secondary to upper respiratory tract infection.
Efficacy of Nebulised Beclometasone in Viral Wheezing Prophylaxis
Bronchial SpasmRespiratory Sounds1 moreInhaled steroids, in particular beclomethasone, are widely prescribed in Italy as symptomatic treatment of upper respiratory infections without evidence of efficacy. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of beclomethasone (administered by nebuliser twice a day) in preventing viral wheezing in pre-school children who had had episodes in the preceding 12 months.
Propranolol Administration in Pediatric Patients With Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis
Recurrent Respiratory PapillomatosisJuvenile onset recurrent respiratory papillomatosis (JORRP) is a rare, difficult to treat, benign tumor of the pediatric airway. Current therapy is mainly surgical, but in a significant portion of patients adjuvant therapy is required to control the disease process. Although multiple adjuvant medical therapies have been tried, success has been limited. We have seen some success in a limited amount of patients using orally administered propranolol. Our goal is to enroll a larger cohort of patients to determine the effectiveness of propranolol as an adjuvant therapy for JORRP.
Evaluate the Potential of Montelukast to Prevent Nasal Symptomatology During Colds
Upper Respiratory InfectionAssesses the efficacy of treatment with montelukast 10 mg PO QD x 5 days versus placebo for the treatment of viral-induced upper respiratory infection in healthy adults aged 18-50 years.
Novel Influenza A/H1N1 Split- Virion Vaccine in Healthy Population Aged 3 Years and Older
Virus DiseasesRespiratory Tract Diseases3 moreThe primary safety objective of this study is to assess the safety of split- virion inactivated H1N1 vaccine with and without adjuvant when administered at the 7.5,15 or 30 mcg dose. The primary immunogenicity objective is to assess the antibody response following each dose of split- virion inactivated A(H1N1) vaccine with and without adjuvant. Participants will include up to 2200 healthy persons age 3 and older who have no history of novel influenza H1N1 2009 infection or novel influenza H1N1 2009 vaccination. This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase II study in healthy males and non-pregnant females, aged 3 years and older. Subjects will be stratified by elders (equal to or more than 61 years), adults (18-60 years), adolescents (12-17 years) and children (3-11 years), elders and adolescents will be randomized into 5 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5,15 or 30 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose), children will be randomized into 4 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5 or 15 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose), adults will be randomized into 6 dose groups (adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 7.5,15 or 30 mcg per dose or non-adjuvanted H1N1 vaccine of 15 or 30 mcg per dose or placebo), 110 subjects per dose and age stratum will be to receive intramuscular influenza H1N1 vaccine. The H1N1 vaccine will be administered at Day 0 and Day 21. Following immunization, safety will be measured by assessment of adverse events through 21 days following the last vaccination (Day 42 for those receiving both doses), serious adverse events and new-onset chronic medical conditions through 6 months post the final vaccination (Day 180 after second vaccination), and reactogenicity to the vaccine for 8 days (Day 0-7) following each vaccination. Immunogenicity testing will be hemagglutination inhibiting (HAI) on serum obtained on the day 21 of each vaccination (prior to vaccination), on Day 21 after first vaccination, and 21 days following the second vaccination (Day 42).
