229 Clinical Trials for COVID-19
This study is investigating the effects of using an Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy (OMT) treatment protocol that was shown to statistically improve smell in individuals suffering from Long-COVID olfactory (smell) dysfunction in a small single-blinded pilot trial conducted during 2021. The questions this study is trying to answer are: 1. Does this OMT protocol improve other non-smell related Long-COVID symptoms 2. Do 2 OMT treatments improve Long-COVID symptoms more than 1 OMT treatment Participants will: 1. Week 1: Take an digital survey regarding their Long-COVID symptoms undergo Long-COVID OMT treatment or a placebo treatment 2. Week 2: Take an digital survey regarding their Long-COVID symptoms then all will undergo Long-COVID OMT treatment 3. Week 3: Take an digital survey regarding their Long-COVID symptoms 4. Week 8: Take an digital survey regarding their Long-COVID symptoms
The purpose of this study is to test if Variable Pulse TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) can result in objective improvements in patients with Post COVID Syndrome (PCS).
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the immunogenicity, reactogenicity, and safety, of mRNA-1083 multicomponent influenza and COVID-19 vaccine in adults ≥18 to \<65 years of age.
The goal of this research is to learn more about ZADAXIN® (trade name; thymalfasin generic; Ta1 for short) and determine if Ta1 has any benefit in increasing the immune response to the COVID-19 vaccine. Ta1 has been shown to stimulate the immune system to fight infections. This research study will test the safety and possible harms of Ta1 when it is given to people at different dose levels before COVID-19 vaccination.
The purpose of this study is to learn about how the flu and COVID vaccines act when given alone or when mixed together. This study is seeking healthy participants aged 18 or older. All participants in this study will receive only 1 shot to their arm, either a flu or COVID vaccine, alone or mixed. Participants will take part in this study for about 6 months, and participants will need to visit the clinical study site at least 4 times.
One of the most widespread symptoms of COVID-19 is loss of the sense of smell. There are very few treatments for helping individuals recover their sense of smell. Osteopathic manipulative treatment (OMT) may be a useful tool in helping people recover their smell perception. In this study the investigators test whether OMT can be used to help individuals recover their sense of smell if they lost it during COVID-19.
The purpose of this trial is to assess the safety and relative efficacy of CVXGA (CVXGA50), a KP.2 containing vaccine, compared to COMIRNATY® (COVID-19 Vaccine, mRNA; 2024-2025 Formula), a currently approved COVID-19 vaccine in the prevention of symptomatic, RT-PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. The trial will enroll up to 10016 healthy participants.
The purpose of the study is to evaluate whether ibuzatrelvir is effective and safe in adults and adolescents with COVID-19 who do not need to be in the hospital but who are at high risk for progression to severe disease. Eligible participants will be randomly assigned (by chance) to receive ibuzatrelvir or matching placebo orally for 5 days. Co-administration of locally available standard of care is allowed. The total duration of the study is around 6 months.
The DiaSorin Molecular LIAISON® NES FLU A/B, RSV \& COVID-19 real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay is intended for use on the DiaSorin LIAISON® NES instrument for the in-vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of nucleic acid from influenza A, influenza B, RSV and SARS-CoV-2 virus from dry nasal swabs (NS) from human patients with signs and symptoms during the acute phase of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. The LIAISON® NES FLU A/B, RSV \& COVID-19 assay is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, RSV and SARS-CoV-2 infection in a professional laboratory setting. Negative results do not preclude influenza A, influenza B, RSV or SARS-CoV-2, infection and should not be used as the sole basis for patient management decisions. The assay is not intended to detect the presence of the influenza C virus.
The primary objective of the study is to determine the relative efficacy of the investigational oral severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV2) vaccine tablet VXA-CoV2-3.3 compared to a currently recommended vaccine for the prevention of symptomatic Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). In order to represent a more recently circulating SARS-CoV-2 variant, the main study endpoints will now evaluate the VXA-CoV2-3.3 (KP.2 strain) vaccine, and not the VXA-CoV2-3.1 (XBB.1.5 strain) vaccine.
Researchers are looking for other ways to prevent severe illness from COVID-19. COVID-19 is a virus that most often causes mild flu or cold-like symptoms. However, people with certain health conditions or other factors have a high risk (chance) of getting severely ill from COVID-19, which can require a hospital stay or lead to death. Some people who are high risk for severe illness may be unable to take certain treatments for COVID-19 because they are not available to them, or they take other medicines that may react with a treatment and cause an unwanted effect. Molnupiravir (MK-4482) is a study medicine designed to stop the COVID-19 virus from copying itself in the body (multiplying). The goal of this study is to learn if molnupiravir prevents severe illness from COVID-19 more than placebo in people who are high risk.
The goal of this study is to assess how community-led group discussions about health-related topics may alter beliefs and intentions regarding healthcare recommendations, such as COVID-19 testing and vaccination.
The study will test two tactics to improve uptake of two vaccines in adults. The vaccines prevent COVID-19 and influenza. Both are common and harmful. Most adults do not get either vaccine. This is despite strong recommendations that all adults get both vaccines. The study will involve adult patients at eight Mayo Clinic primary care practices in Rochester and Kasson. The study will test the two tactics together. Four clinics will get the two tactics. The other four clinics will not. The study will randomly assign the two tactics to the clinics. One tactic is to send a letter by US mail to the patient. The letter will state strong recommendations on getting both vaccines now. It will tell patients how to get the vaccines now. The second tactic is to send monthly emails to clinicians. It will remind them to use every visit to vaccinate patients against COVID-19 and influenza. The study will compare the uptake of the two vaccines after six months in the clinics with and without the two tactics.
This study aims to assess the effects of both acute and chronic exposures to hypoxia and hypercapnia in patients with Long COVID syndrome.
A prior open label study has shown that transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation \[tVNS\] can improve the health of some patients with postacute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 infection (PASC), severely affected enough to also fulfill criteria for myalgic encephalomyelitis / chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS). The purpose of this study is to compare two sets of stimulus parameters to determine the one that best improves the health-related quality of life of these patients over a period of 6-weeks. Patients using their assigned device for at least 30 of the 42 possible opportunities will receive the best device for an additional 6-week period.
The type and number of chemicals in exhaled breath are different in people with infection as compared to those without infection. In this study, the breath of people with and without COVID infection will be measured. Changes in the amount and type of chemicals in breath will be used to determine if an individual does or does not have COVID infection. If the measurements of breath are a reliable measure of COVID infection, this device may be used to rapidly screen people who are attending large public events (for example, music concert or baseball game) to minimize the spread of COVID at the event.
This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study,pregnant participants will be randomly assigned to receive IIV and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially (7-14 days apart). All participants will receive an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine at Visit 1 (Day 1). Solicited local and systemic symptoms of reactogenicity will be assessed on day of visit for Visits 1 and 2 and daily during the 6 days following each visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Serious adverse events (SAE) and adverse events of special interest (AESI) will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Pregnant people will be followed through delivery with comprehensive obstetric and infant outcomes obtained from medical record review for 90 days post-delivery. Maternal serum samples will be collected for antibody titers relevant to Influenza and COVID-19 prior to vaccination, at Day 29 (both groups), as well as Days 36-43 if in sequential group. When feasible, maternal blood at delivery and cord blood serum will be analyzed for serological analyses of placental influenza and COVID-19 antibody transfer (cord blood: maternal antibody ratio) will be determined.
This study is to find out if the Attention Processing Training program is a potential treatment for brain fog symptoms, reported by people with Long-Covid. Also investigating the feasibility of completing this program virtually.
Investigators are conducting a study on alternative treatments for patients who have received an current or previous positive COVID-19 diagnosis with mild-serve symptoms or undiagnosable condition after testing positive for severe acute COVID-19 infection and are experiencing long-haul symptoms. The symptoms of long COVID can include extreme tiredness (fatigue), shortness of breath, memory and concentration issues (brain fog), heart palpitations, dizziness, joint pain, muscle aches, cough, headaches, anxiety, and depression. It's important to note that there are various other symptoms that individuals can experience after a COVID-19 infection, such as loss of smell, chest pain or tightness, difficulty sleeping (insomnia), pins and needles, depression, anxiety, tinnitus, earaches, nausea, diarrhea, stomach aches, loss of appetite, cough, headaches, sore throat, and changes to the sense of smell or taste. To be included in the study, participants must have had symptoms for more than 4 weeks. The goal of the study is to measure biomarkers, identify new ones through clinical trials, and individualize and optimize treatment plans, which may or may not include COVID-19 post-market antivirals, vaccines, and medical care. It's essential to conduct thorough clinical trials to understand the long-term effects of COVID-19 and to develop personalized treatment plans for individuals experiencing long-haul symptoms.
The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Xiflam versus Placebo in patients who present with signs and symptoms of Long COVID. Xiflam (n=10) or placebo (n=5) will be administered orally once a day (QD) for 12 weeks.
The primary objective of this effort will be to optimize and operationalize innovative passive surveillance systems and in parallel, the effort will identify, evaluate, and transition groundbreaking new technologies in diagnostics for operationalization. To meet the objective and execute the deliverables for this program of effort, the A\&M Breathalyzer PROTECT Kiosk will be tested, modified and validated at Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC). The collaborative efforts between the PI, Dr. Michael Morris at BAMC and Co-Investigator Dr. Tony Yuan at USU- Center for Biotechnology (4D Bio3) will assess the passive detection technology and provide a capability survey of use-case scenarios for different operational settings. Goals: 1. Optimization and operationalize the A\&M Breathalyzer PROTECT Kiosk, portable mass spectrometer (MS) Detector for Deployment in Military Operational Medicine Environments. The Breathalyzer will be deployed to BAMC to test its detection capabilities of COVID-19 among symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 carrier vs. those not infected compared to gold standard RT-PCR. 2. Evaluate the passive sensing, breath capture system, built within the A\&M Breathalyzer PROTECT Kiosk. The conversion of the active breath capture system, currently requires a straw that the subject breaths into, where then a series of sensors built in the Breathalyzer would automatically sample the exhaled breath within proximity for recent COVID-19 exposure. This task would conclude with a set of sensors and sensor inputs that would be analyzed by the Atomic AI platform built in the device. Field testing at BAMC is planned to determine the level of detection and discrimination for sensor combinations to SARS-CoV2 components and biomarkers detected. This testing would update the Atomic AI algorithm, within the device, to understand the accuracy of positive detection and the resulting sensitivities.
Assess the incidence and rates of resistant pathogens prior to and during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Diaphragm is the principal muscle of inspiration. Diaphragmatic dysfunction is seen in many conditions including following intubation, lung disease, prolonged ventilation, neuromuscular disease, phrenic nerve injury. The possible mechanisms of diaphragmatic dysfunction in patients with COVID19 are critical illness myopathy, ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction, iatrogenic phrenic nerve injury particularly secondary to line placement, post-infectious inflammatory neuropathy of the phrenic nerve, or possibly direct neuromuscular involvement of the SARS- CoV-2 virus given expression of the angiotensin- converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor in the peripheral nervous system and skeletal muscle. The use of diaphragmatic ultrasound has been widely used to assess diaphragmatic function is well known in patients following prolonged mechanical ventilation. Prolonged mechanical ventilation leads to contractile dysfunction of respiratory muscles, in particular the diaphragm, causing a so-called ventilator-induced diaphragm dysfunction. The latter is defined as a loss of diaphragm force-generating capacity specifically related to the use of mechanical ventilation. However, the use of diaphragmatic Ultrasound to assess its function in Long COVID patients has not been noted and is a gap in the work up of these patients. The purpose of this study is to address Diaphragmatic Dysfunctional (DD) breathing seen in patients with Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC), which results in shortness of breath/chest tightness and subsequent fatigue. Targeting shortness of breath and subsequent fatigue as a central symptom of PASC will alleviate long term sequelae for the patients with PASC. DD will be addressed by a unique intervention of physical therapy. The goal of this prospective randomized clinical study will be to evaluate the comparative treatment effect of DB on markers, specifically fatigue, dyspnea, 6 min walk test, depression/anxiety, and quality of life (QoL).
The Primary objective of this study is to determine, using unblinded samples, if it is possible to develop an algorithm for the classification of specific blood RNA from patients with long COVID together and separately from the apparent health normal controls and other medical conditions that share the signs and symptoms of long COVID.
The goal of this study is to evaluate the safety of using the \[5-cyano-N-(4-(4-\[11C\]Methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-(Piperidin-1-yl)Phenyl)Furan-2-carboxamide\] (\[11C\]CPPC) radiotracer in positron emission tomography (PET) imaging of people with history of COVID-19 infection, with and without symptoms. The investigators are also interested to see whether use of this radiotracer reveals imaging differences between patients with history of COVID-19 infection and still exhibiting symptoms or healthy patients with history of COVID-19 infection but exhibiting no current symptoms.
The novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection, COVID, continues to rage throughout the world with 115,000,000 confirmed cases and over 2,500,000 deaths (as of Mar 3, 2021). This translates to millions of people surviving COVID19 infection. While the lungs are ground zero, COVID tears through organ systems from brain to blood vessels. We are now beginning to see people recover but complain of ongoing problems, including lingering cognitive problems, depression, and anxiety. We have brought together 2 laboratories with complementary techniques including psychological testing and neuroimaging methods togethers with markers in the blood that may signal damage in the brain. A close look at these problems is timely and imperative if we are to understand the pathophysiology of 'COVID brain' and prepare for downstream problems.
This study will be conducted as a prospective cohort study, enrolling all eligible women in their first trimester of pregnancy during a baseline visit during week 6-13 of pregnancy at Government Medical College Hospital, Nagpur. The Hospital provides primary, secondary, and tertiary care and the obstetric department delivers about 10,000 babies a year. The hypothesis is that co-infection of other respiratory viruses (ORV), particularly COVID-19 and Influenza increases the risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes in mothers and babies and could address the current standard of care in India to not vaccinate pregnant women during pregnancy, by either encouraging vaccination against both viruses before planning a pregnancy or during pregnancy based on global data supporting the safety of this strategy.
The purpose of this study is to comprehensively describe the temporal and geographic utilization of COVID-19 therapies used for mild to moderate disease during different periods of SARS-CoV-2 variant circulation as well as to compare demographic and clinical characteristics of Veterans who are treated or do not receive these different therapies. The investigators will also perform similar descriptive epidemiology for other respiratory viruses, including RSV and influenza and other infectious diseases. This first phase will critically inform feasibility and direction of the second phase, in which the investigators will use target trial emulation design to study the comparative effectiveness of therapies and vaccines for COVID-19, respiratory viruses, including RSV, and influenza, and other infectious diseases.
The purpose of this study is to find out if a community health workers (CHW) intervention conducted in Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) can increase the number of adults with chronic illnesses who are up-to-date with their COVID-19 and influenza vaccines.
This two-year study will evaluate the feasibility and safety of an exercise + cognitive training program to improve neurological symptoms of long-COVID. This is a two-phased trial: 1) an exercise phase and 2) a cognitive training phase. The exercise phase will be an aquatic based exercise program. A combination exercise + memory training programs designed for persons with cognitive impairment have significantly improved memory more than other single intervention groups (exercise only, cognitive training only) and given the success of combination training programs with healthy adults, it is important to adapt these programs for persons with neurological symptoms of long-COVID.
