Active clinical trials for "Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome"

There is currently no known treatment for COVID19. Active smokers are infrequent among patients with COVID-19 which has led our team to hypothesize that nicotine is responsible for this protective effect via the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR). In fact, nAChR possess the ability to modulate ACE2 expression, the cellular doorway for SARS-CoV2. nAChR modulation by the virus would be responsible for the numerous clinical signs observed in COVID-19, including the cytokine storm manifested in intensive care hyperinflammatory patients. Based on epidemiological data and experimental data from scientific literature, our team hypothesize that nicotine could inhibit the penetration and propagation of SARS-CoV2. Our team also claim that nicotine could attenuate the hyperinflammatory response and cytokine storm leading to acute respiratory failure and a probable multi-organ failure associated with COVID19.

Inspiratory muscle training considered as safe and valid method to improve respiratory muscle strength and functional capacity among uncountable conditions which could improve post COVID-19 persistent symptoms including but not limited to respiratory muscle strength, diminishing dyspnea, enhance blood oxygenation, and patient's functional capacity and quality of life.

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Lung failure is the main cause of death related to COVID-19 infection. The main objective of this study was to evaluate if ibrutinib is safe and can reduce respiratory failure in participants with COVID-19 infection.

The world is currently facing a pandemic with the coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) which leads to the disease of COVID-19. Risk factors for a poor outcome of COVID-19 have so far been identified as older age and co-morbidity including chronic respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and current smoking status. Previous studies found, that vitamin D deficiency is more prevalent among patients with these risk factors. There are observational studies reporting independent associations between low serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D (the major circulating vitamin D metabolite) and susceptibility to acute respiratory tract infection. Vitamin D substitution in patients with COVID-19 who show a vitamin D deficiency should therefore be investigated for efficacy and safety. The study is designed as a randomized, placebo-controlled, double blind study. The objective of the study is to test the hypothesis that patients with vitamin D deficiency suffering from COVID-19 treated under standardized conditions in hospital will recover faster when additionally treated with a single high dose of vitamin D compared to standard treatment only.

The purpose of the study is to assess the potential therapeutic effect of N-acetylcysteine "NAC" in COVID 19 patients.

To demonstrate the efficacy of VERU-111 in the treatment of SARS-Cov-2 Infection by assessing its effect on the proportion of patients who die on study (prior to Day 60).

Quercetin is one of the flavonoids. Quercetin as well as rutin are recognized to be among the most active of the flavonoids. It is to quercetin that several medicinal plants, including ginkgo and St. John's Wort, owe part of their therapeutic effects. Often combined with vitamin C in supplements, it improves absorption by the body and delays its elimination. Quercetin is extracted from a variety of plant sources, including the onion peel and seeds and pods of Dimorphandra mollis, a tree in the legume family native to South America. At present, there is no scientific data to demonstrate the effectiveness of herbal medicine, regardless of the plant, to prevent or treat COVID-19. On the other hand, some plant-based food supplements have anti-inflammatory or immunomodulatory properties that may disrupt inflammatory defense mechanisms useful in fighting infections, and in particular against COVID-19.

The global pandemic has recently emerged by transmission of SARS-CoV2 virus. The virus has had a massive impact on health, wealth and social aspects worldwide. Since the identification of this virus in Wuhan, China, millions of cases has been diagnosed worldwide with mortality rates ranging from 3% to 12 %

Pilot clinical trial, with a marketed drug -natural component of human plasma-, not approved for this indication, single-center, exploratory, open, randomized, controlled, to study the efficacy and safety of human Antithrombin in patients with confirmed COVID-19 disease and criteria high risk to develop SARS.

The purpose of this research is to understand if the study drug, also called sargramostim or Leukine®, can help prevent the worsening of COVID-19 when the study drug is inhaled. This study will also help researchers understand if inhaled sargramostim can help prevent visits to the emergency room or hospitalization, or death.
