Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

To evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of DelNS1-2019-nCoV-RBD-OPT1 as booster vaccine for COVID-19 in healthy adults who have received 2 doses of BNT162b2

Prone positioning improves oxygenation in patients with ARDS (1-3). Patients with severe ARDS due to COVID-19 are candidates for prone position. It should be started within 36-48 h and maintained 1, 3). Prone ventilationARDS based on a randomized trial that showed a mortality benefit (PROSEVA) (3). The improvement of oxygenation occurs by making ventilation more homogeneous, limiting ventilator-associated lung injury (4-6). Prone positioning was as effective in improving oxygenation, static respiratory system compliance (Crs) (7). Higher PEEP should be applied when there is a high recruitability potential of the lung. This study aimed to investigate whether prone positioning changes the recruitability position of the lung.in COVID-ARDS.

COVID-19 clotting Safety

In this trial the researchers plan to recruit 25,000 volunteers to be randomly allocated either wearing sunglasses or ordinary glasses in public spaces where they are close to other people, or not wear glasses in such circumstances. For each participant the trial period is 2 weeks, after which they will be asked to complete a brief questionnaire which includes questions about results of COVID-19 tests during the trial period.

This is a Phase II interventional study testing whether treatment with hydroxychloroquine, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc can prevent symptoms of COVID-19

A Phase II Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Azvudine in Preventing SARS-Cov-2 Infection in Household Contacts of Individuals Infected with SARS-CoV-2 in China

To date, little is understood regarding post-COVID fatigue or cancer fatigue though it is known to affect a large proportion of patients (10-70% depending on the population). This study aims to investigate potential mitochondrial function and metabolic changes in brain to provide further information regarding the etiology of these changes leading to fatigue. This study hypothesized that Post-COVID fatigue is ensued by perturbations in metabolism and mitochondrial function in the brain. This is a case-control study. In this study, 30 patients (experimental group) complaining of persistent fatigue lasting longer than 4 weeks after recovering from SARS-CoV-2 infection and the age/gender-matched control of 30 healthy subjects (control group 1) and 30 patients suffering from cancer-related fatigue patients longer than 4 weeks after remission (control group 2). Both the experimental group (post-COVID fatigue) and control group 2 (cancer fatigue) will be recruited from NUH outpatient clinic will undergo a session of MRI, 3D Arterial Spin Labelling (ASL) and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and the Chalder Fatigue Scale, Health Questionnaire (EQ-5D-5L) and Hamilton Depression Rating Scale at baseline and follow-up visit.

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare treatment with oral Paxlovid (nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) and placebo for acute COVID-19 as an intervention to prevent long-COVID (post-COVID-19 condition) in adults aged 18-64 years old. The main question it aims to answer is: Does treatment with Paxlovid for acute COVID-19 reduce the prevalence of long-COVID compared to placebo. Participants with acute COVID-19, documented with positive lateral flow test or PCR, within the last 5 days will be randomised to take either Paxlovid or placebo. All participants will receive standard of care in addition. Participants will respond to electronic questionnaires at 14 time points during follow-up. The primary outcome is presence of long-COVID symptoms at 3 months follow-up. Researchers will compare participants who received Paxlovid and placebo to see if Paxlovid treatment can prevent the occurrence of long-COVID.

The goal of this study is to refine and test CONFIDENCE, a multi-component clinic-based intervention in pediatric or family practice clinical settings. Using a randomized control trial design, the investigators will assess preliminary effectiveness of the intervention to increase COVID-19 vaccine intention among parents of under-vaccinated children ages 5 to 17. Participating clinics will receive a brief intervention consisting of: (1) webinar training focused on communication with vaccine-hesitant parents, (2) parent-facing educational materials about COVID-19 vaccination, (3) support to create a personalized, poster campaign featuring providers. Clinics in the control condition will receive the intervention approximately 12 months after the clinics in the intervention condition.

This is a phase III, randomized, observer-blind, active-controlled, parallel group, multi-center study to compare the immunogenicity and safety of a preventive COVID-19 vaccine EuCorVac-19 to ChAdOx1 in healthy adults aged 18 years and older
