Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

Assess the impact of a proprietary extract of Nerium oleander on immune function as evidenced by COVID-19 symptoms and mortality in COVID-19 positive patients and their close contacts compared to controls that did not receive the extract.

In this study, patients with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection will be randomized to receive duvelisib or a placebo. Participants will be enrolled at Emory University Hospital and will be identified and recruited by their treating physician and research team.

In some patients, lung function declined by about 20 to 30% after recovery. Computer tomography of COVID-19 patients revealed a ground glass opacity in both lungs. We will measure the Cardiorespiratory fitness according to American College of Sports medicine guidline and provide physiotherapy exercise to the patients to measure the improvement.

This study is intended to explore the possible protective role of anti-androgens in SARS-CoV-2 infection

The primary objectives are: Pooled Phase 3 (Cohort 1) and Phase 2 (Cohort 1A) To evaluate the virologic efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo in reducing viral load of SARS-CoV-2 To evaluate the clinical efficacy of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo, as measured by death or mechanical ventilation Phase 1/2 (Cohort 1) To exclude futility of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo, as measured by death or mechanical ventilation To evaluate the safety and tolerability of REGN10933+REGN10987 compared to placebo

The purpose of this study is to understand if it is safe and useful to perform SGB (Stellate Ganglion Block) in patients who have severe lung injury Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19 infection.

This randomized clinical trial will evaluate the benefit of platelet-rich plasma (PrP) in the treatment of olfactory dysfunction. PrP can be isolated from a patient's own blood and has been found in previous studies to have anti-inflammatory and pro-regenerative properties. It has been used across multiple specialties, such as Orthopedics, Facial Plastics, Dermatology, Neurology in injected form to treat a wide variety of tissues to encourage the body's inherent regenerative capacity. The investigators have completed a pilot study here evaluating it's use in olfactory loss which demonstrated safety and also suggested efficacy. Therefore, the investigators aim to assess the ability of PrP to improve olfactory function in patients with decreased sense of smell.

Burden: Initial outbreak of corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19) was reported from Wuhan, China in early December 2019.Presently known to be caused by a novel beta-corona virus, named as Severe acute respiratory syndrome corona virus 2 ( SARS-CoV-2). World Health Organization (WHO) declared a pandemic on March. The clinical characteristics of COVID-19 include respiratory symptoms, fever, cough, dyspnoea and pneumonia Infected individuals exhibit: Mostly mild illness (80% +) recover without any treatment (~80%) Moderate illness that needs hospitalization and recovers after standard supportive treatment (~14%) Critical illness (~5%) needs ICU support Death (1-2% ) COVID-19 has now spread >210 countries and territories globally. SARS-CoV-2 is a respiratory virus which spreads primarily through droplets generalized when an infected person coughs or sneezes or through droplets of saliva or discharge from the nose. Symptomatic management remains the mainstay of treatment strategy. Mortality appears to be more common in older individuals and those with co-morbidities, such as chronic lung disease, cardiovascular disease and diabetes. Young people with no comorbidities also appear to be at risk for critical illness including multi-organ failure and death. Seen more in Bangladesh between 21-40 yrs of age. Knowledge Gap: There is no specific treatment against this new virus that WHO has officially declared until now.There are many pharmacologic therapies that are being used or considered for treatment of COVID-19. National Guidelines on Clinical Management of Corona virus Disease 2019 (Covid-19): V 5.0 date 9th April 2020) CDC, DGHS, GoB Thus an RCT is urgently needed in Bangladesh: Based on recent literatures on Rx studies in COVID-19 patients from other countries as well as its availability & affordability of those repurposed medicines

The purpose of this study is to assess the ability of regular gargling to eliminate severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in the throat and nasopharynx. This 4 arms interventional study compares the effect of gargling using povidone-iodine, essential oils- based, tap water with control (no intervention) among Stage 1 coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) patients. Findings from this study will provide new insight into the importance of gargling in the treatment and prevention of COVID-19.

Double blind, placebo controlled, randomized clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy of ivermectin in preventing progression of disease in adult patients with early stages of COVID-19
