Active clinical trials for "COVID-19"

The present retrospective and prospective observational study aims at evaluate the clinical predictors of myocardial injury in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 infection since the introduction of vaccines that could allow the development of predictive models as well as help clinicians in the early assessment of the risk of myocardial injury and the prevention of the associated unfavourable outcomes. Furthermore, this study will characterize the cardiovascular outcomes in the post-acute COVID-19 phase, and it will evaluate for the first time the long-term clinical outcomes of patients who experienced myocardial injury, possibly paving the way for the implementation of specific therapies aiming to reduce the cardiovascular risk and the long- term sequelae of COVID-19.

After almost 2 years of pandemic, the consequences of the post-COVID syndrome, or PASC (Post Acute-Sequelae of Sars-CoV-2), have become a major challenge in the management of affected patients, generating costs for health services. and insecurity regarding treatments for the sequelae, given the complex and still poorly understood pathophysiology of COVID-19. This troubling scenario raises important questions about the impact of COVID-19 on central nervous system sequelae, including the risk of cognitive decline in old age and progression to dementia. Therefore, studies that propose the possibility of treatment for this new clinical condition and that are free from systemic side effects, such as transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) and cognitive treatment, are extremely important in the face of this scenario. In addition, the evaluation of the neural mechanisms underlying the cognitive alterations of the PASC syndrome and after the treatment using multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) becomes relevant in view of the lack of studies related to the topic. Therefore, the objective of this double-blind randomized clinical trial is to assess whether tDCS associated with cognitive training can improve symptoms in patients with persistent cognitive deficits that started between 1 and 6 months after the resolution of acute COVID-19 infection (PASC) compared to the sham (placebo) group, in addition to exploring the structural, microstructural, functional and modeled electric field changes associated with cognitive alterations due to PASC syndrome and tDCS combined with cognitive treatment. 60 patients aged between 18 and 70 years and with a positive diagnosis of mild to moderate COVID-19 in the last 6 months in relation to the time of entry into the study will be recruited. All of them will be pre-screened online and in person to confirm the cognitive dysfunction associated with PASC.

A Phase I clinical study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and immunogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 variant (Omicron) mRNA vaccine which is used to prevent COVID-19 caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.

Observer-blind, randomized, active-controlled prospective intervention study

Over one million Canadians have been infected by COVID-19. Many people who have been infected by COVID-19 experience negative mental symptoms, such as "brain fog" and fatigue. For many of these people, they continue to feel these negative mental symptoms even after recovering from COVID-19. However, scientists still do not know how COVID-19 harms the human brain and causes these mental problems. Our goal is to use advanced brain imaging to determine whether people who have been infected with COVID-19 show damage in their brain. We hope that this information will help doctors determine what treatments should be provided to help people who are suffering from continuing mental problems after being infected with COVID-19.

This study will be a single center, Phase I, randomized, double-blind, placebo controlled, single and multiple ascending dose (SAD/MAD) study evaluating the safety, tolerability, and PK of Delcetravir after administration via oral inhalation in healthy subjects.

In our Research the goal is to examine the level of stress and burnout among social care workers and their causes and effects after COVID-19 pandemic. We would like to examine the migration from work trend and its socio-demographic causes in the light of COVID-19 pandemic among social care workers in Hungary. We would like to analyze the extent of stress and burnout at work after COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the resulting turnover intentions in Hungary among social care workers. Our goal is to validate on hungarian population the Turnover Intention Scale (TIS-6), to measure fluctuation and migration.

The goal of this project is to understand the household level transmission dynamics and factors that predict transmission of SARS-COV-2 between pediatric and adults in the household. The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 has spread all around the world and testing has posed a challenge globally. Not much is known about who does and does not acquire SARS-CoV2. It is also unknown who will show symptoms or progress severe disease or death from COVID-19. Children tend to have milder symptoms or none at all. Therefore, few children have ever been tested, so it is unknown if they get the infection as much as anyone else. Health care providers are highly exposed, and they do not get tested unless they show severe symptoms. If groups like children and health workers are infected, they can unknowingly spread SARS-CoV-2, unless they practice behaviors like self-isolation very strictly. The investigators aim to measure the prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in children and health care workers at a large urban health center. The investigators will also measure how many people in the household of the positive children and health care workers also get SARS-CoV-2 infection. Lastly, the investigators will see what other risk factors affect who acquires SARSCoV-2 from inside or outside of the household clusters.

TAK-019 is a vaccine in development to protect people against Covid-19. The main aims of the study are to learn if TAK-019 can protect people from Covid-19 and to check for side effects from TAK-019 for participants who will receive TAK-019 as heterologous booster vaccination. This study consists of two parts, main part and extension part. Firstly, participants who completed 2 doses primary vaccinations 6 to 12 months prior to the trial vaccination can take part in main study. At the first visit of main part of this study, the study doctor will check if each person can take part. Participants who can take part will receive an injection of TAK-019 as booster vaccination. Participants will be asked to record their temperature and any medical problems in an electronic diary for up to 7 days after the injection. During the main part, participants will visit the clinic for regular check-ups, blood tests, and sometimes for nose swab samples. When all participants have attended a clinic visit 28 days after the injection, the study sponsor (Takeda) will check how many participants have made enough antibodies to protect them against Covid-19. Participants who received the first single booster vaccination of TAK-019 in the main part and remained in study follow-up at least 5 months will be able to decide to take part in the extension part of this study. At the first visit of extension part of this study, the study doctor will check if each person can take part. Participants who can take part will receive an injection of TAK-019 as a second booster vaccination at the first visit of extension part. The participants will stay in the main part of this study for up to 12 months after they have had their injection or up to the start of extension part. For participants who will take part in the extension part, they will stay in the extension part for up to 12 months from the start of extension part. During this time, the doctors will continue to collect blood samples to check immune response. Also, they will check if participants have any more side effects from TAK-019.

This study will determine the immunogenicity of Spikogen in vaccine naïve individuals. Spikogen will be administered as two doses 1 month apart with a third booster dose either 1 or 3 months after the second dose. This study will provide key data on SARS-CoV-2 antibody responses.
