The Defense Automated Neurobehavioral Assessment (DANA) is a battery of cognitive tests delivered via an electronic tablet or smartphone. The overarching goal of this study is to evaluate the post-acute trajectory of cognitive functioning in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 using the DANA.
This study seeks to evaluate how secondary data retrieved from remote physiological monitoring performed during routine outpatient/at-home care periods can allow for the discovery of novel physiomarkers that predict acute deterioration or hospitalization among people testing positive for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).
This study evaluates operative and non-operative management of acute appendicitis (infection or inflammation of the appendix) and acute cholecystitis (inflammation/infection of the gallbladder) in patients with active mild to moderate COVID-19 infection. The hypothesis is that COVID+ patients with uncomplicated acute appendicitis or acute cholecystitis amendable to a laparoscopic procedure can have safe operative outcomes compared to those managed non-operatively.
The purpose of this Clinical trial is to explore the therapeutic benefits of Ivermectin and Doxycycline in different combinations in high risk patients diagnosed with COVID-19.
Prospective samples will be collected to evaluate the agreement between a EUA RT-PCR test as the comparator method against the Nanomix eLab® system.
A multi-center adaptive randomized placebo-controlled platform trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of anti-thrombotic strategies in COVID-19 adults not requiring hospitalization at time of diagnosis
This study will establish the safety and efficacy of using stellate ganglion blocks in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to COVID-19 disease.
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of MLS laser therapy as a treatment for pulmonary complications due to COVID-19 infection.
This is a multi-arm, phase II trial for rapid efficacy and toxicity assessment of multiple therapies immediately after COVID19 positive testing in high-risk individuals. Therapies include stand-alone or combination treatment with hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, ivermectin, or camostat mesilate, artemesia annua. The hypothesis of this study is that the addition of agents that inhibit viral entry or replication of SARS-CoV-2 virus replication in will be devoid of additional moderate to severe toxicities, will prevent clinical deterioration, and will improve viral clearance in high risk individuals.
We aim to better understand the mode of action of COVID-19 in the context of its interaction with the host genome through whole-genome sequencing.
Minimal risk research study: 1. Comparing polyester nasal swabs and foam nasal swabs to detect SARS-CoV-2 virus; 2. Quantifying the development and trajectory of the disease through clinic visits and blood values.
Diagnostic determination of disease and treatment responses has been limited to qualitative imaging, measurement of serum markers of disease, and sampling of tissue. In each of these instances, there is a built in error either due to sensitivity and specificity issues, clinician interpretation of results, or acceptance of the use of an indirect marker (blood test) of what is happening elsewhere in the body - at the tissue level. The Fleming Method for Tissue and Vascular Differentiation and Metabolism (FMTVDM) using same state single or sequential quantification comparisons \[1\] provides the first and only patented test (#9566037) - along with the associated submitted patent applications ruled to be covered under #9566037 - that quantitatively measures changes in tissue resulting from inter alia a disease process. This includes inter alia coronary artery disease (CAD), cancer and infectious/inflammatory processes including CoVid-19 pneumonia (CVP) resulting from the metabolic and regional blood flow differences (RBFDs) caused by these diseases. The purpose of this paper is to make clinicians and researchers aware of this proposed method for investigating the prevalence and severity of CVP - in addition to providing rapid determination of treatment response in each patient, directing treatment decisions; thereby reducing the loss of time, money, resources and patient lives.
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.
Adults who have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 infection and who may require supplemental oxygen will receive PUL-042 Inhalation Solution or placebo 3 times over a one week period in addition to their normal care. Subjects will be be followed and assessed for their clinical status over 28 days to see if PUL-042 Inhalation Solution improves the clinical outcome
To assess the co-relation of COVID-19 in nasopharyngeal swabs and tears or saliva, and to determine duration of COVID-19 activity in ocular fluid and saliva by serial tests over 3 months.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate point of care SARS-Cov2 Virus IgG/IgM rapid test cassette Clungene test and correlate it with the standard method of testing in inpatients who have tested positive or negative for COVID19.
This study is testing a new brief mindfulness practice for people suffering from long COVID-19 symptoms. People suffering from long COVID are particularly vulnerable to negative emotions, as they must also cope with the long-term uncertainty of physical and psychological stress beyond the acute infection. The goal of the study is to measure the ability of a brief mindfulness practice to promote a sense of well-being in people suffering from long COVID.
This single arm, multicenter study provides the pertuzumab and trastuzumab fixed-dose combination formulation for subcutaneous injection (PH FDC SC) administered at home by a home health nursing provider for patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-positive (HER2+) breast cancer who have completed concurrent chemotherapy with pertuzumab (Perjeta) and trastuzumab (Herceptin) by intravenous administration (P+H IV) and are currently receiving or will be receiving maintenance therapy with P+H IV, PH FDC SC, or trastuzumab SC in the clinic. The main objective is to enable continuity of care during the COVID-19 pandemic. This study will enroll approximately 200 patients in the United States. Participants with early or metastatic HER2+ breast cancer will be enrolled in this study. Participants with metastatic HER2+ breast cancer will receive treatment every 3 weeks and continue treatment unless early cessation is necessary due to disease recurrence, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant withdrawal of consent, or per physician's recommendation. Participants with early HER2+ breast cancer will receive PH FDC SC to complete 1 year (up to 18 cycles) of dual blockade, including the P+H IV, PH FDC SC, or trastuzumab SC they received prior to enrolling in this study, unless early cessation is necessary due to disease recurrence, disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, participant withdrawal of consent, or per physician's recommendation. A remote cardiac surveillance substudy will be optional for patients enrolled at select sites. The Sponsor may decide to terminate the study when the COVID-19 pandemic is no longer a risk for this patient population.
This is a first in human clinical study to evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD) of RQ-01. Adult patients who have tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 virus, have mild symptom(s) of COVID-19 disease, and who are at low risk for developing moderate or severe COVID-19 disease are welcome to participate. The main questions this study aims to answer are: 1. What is the safety profile of RQ-01? 2. What is the reduction in SARS-CoV-2 ribonucleic acid (RNA) shedding after administration of RQ-01? 3. How effective is RQ-01 versus placebo in reducing COVID-19 symptoms? After providing informed consent, subjects will be randomized to RQ-01 (high or low dose) or placebo and will be dosed for 3 consecutive days. Throughout the duration of the trial, subjects will participate in the following activities: perform rapid antigen and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests for COVID-19, answer questions about their medical history and medications, answer questions about their COVID-19 history and symptoms, conduct a physical exam, have their vitals measured, and have bloodwork done.
The purpose of this study is to collect data generated by standard clinical practice to determine the short term and long term clinical outcomes of recipients of solid organ transplantation from COVID-19 infected donors and compare it to recipients with organ transplant from COVID-19 negative donors.
The heightened vulnerability to COVID-19 of African American older adults in Detroit, Michigan and other marginalized communities is linked to systemic racism experienced over the life course. Structural inequities also magnify the pandemic's impact on older adults' physical and psychosocial functioning. Many older adults in Detroit, burdened by poor health even before the pandemic, face a downward spiral of increased distress, reduced physical and social activity, and physical deconditioning. RESET (Re-Engaging in Self-care, Enjoying Today) is a self-management and resilience-building intervention led by community health workers (CHWs) at the Detroit Health Department (DHD). The central hypothesis of this study is that RESET, with components that include group telephone calls, a podcast series, and activity trackers, will improve psychosocial and physical functioning at 2 and 8 months. Specific aims are: 1) With input from a Community Advisory Board, modify RESET for group delivery and refine content after testing in a mini-pilot (n=10). 2) Conduct a randomized, controlled trial to assess the impact of RESET (compared to a one-time /telephone wellness check) on PROMIS-29 Psychosocial Score (a weighted combination of distress, fatigue, pain, social participation and sleep) among 456 primarily African American older adults age 50 and over who are at elevated risk of poor functioning. 3) Collect qualitative (interview) data from participants and other stakeholders, and use this data to better understand trial results, as well as to assess community impact and inform a dissemination toolkit.
This is a study on internet-based self-help for stress related to the COVID-19 pandemic. College and university students who score in the moderate or higher range on a stress measure during the COVID-19 pandemic will be invited to participate in this study. Participants will be randomly assigned to receive access to an internet-based self-help program for stress resilience and coping with the COVID-19 pandemic or care as usual. Stress and psychosocial symptoms will be assessed via questionnaire at baseline (pre-randomization), one month post-randomization, and three months post-randomization.
This research aims to understand if prone positioning combined with high-flow nasal cannula (HFNC) or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (NIPPV) safely reduce the rate of intubation in acute hypoxemic and/or hypercapnic respiratory failure secondary to COVID-19 infection.
Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), has led to unprecedented morbidity and mortality in the modern era. To date, nearly 13 million people have contracted COVID-19, leading to more than 550,000 deaths worldwide. As the number of affected individuals continues to climb, effective strategies for treatment and prevention of the disease are of paramount importance. SARS-CoV-2 is understood to directly invade cells via the human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor, which is expressed predominantly in the lungs but also throughout the cardiovascular system. Thus, while acute respiratory distress syndrome remains a feared complication, new thromboembolic disease has emerged as a common and potentially catastrophic manifestation of COVID-19.

In December 2019, Coronavirus infection (COVID-19) was identified as causing serious respiratory infection in humans. Initially COVID-19 was propagated by infected symptomatic individuals; currently the disease is disseminated by asymptomatic COVID-19 positive subjects. The prevalence of asymptomatic COVID-19 individuals is unknown. Due its physiologic immune suppression, pregnancy is a vulnerable time for severe respiratory infections including COVID-19. Limited information is available regarding the impact of COVID-19 in pregnancy and the prevalence and demographic profile of asymptomatic pregnant women. Despite reports of 15-20% positive COVID-19 tests in women admitted to Labor and Delivery, professional obstetric medical societies still recommend not prioritizing testing of patients who are asymptomatic. In the USA, COVID-19 symptomatic patients come predominantly from lower income, Black and Latino communities. No data are available on the rate and demographic distribution of asymptomatic positive COVID-19 pregnant women. To minimize the risk of inadvertent exposure asymptomatic individuals, recently our institution started COVID-19 testing in all admitted pregnant women. The investigators expect to gain knowledge on the impact of COVID-19 in pregnant women especially if asymptomatic and compare to other respiratory infections.
There is surge in COVID infected patients in New York City with a shortage of hospital beds, ICU beds and ventilators. Strategies to reduce the need for all of the above are immediately needed. Further, few interventions are targeted in COVID infected patients early in the course of their disease and especially in the community/home settings. Respiratory decompensation appears to occur later in the disease process (i.e. 7-10 days after becoming symptomatic) therefore many patients are sent home from the Emergency Room and they subsequently decompensate later at home. Some patients die at home and others are returning to the Emergency Room with hypoxemic respiratory failure. There is no treatment offered to this population of patients, i.e. COVID suspected or confirmed and with respiratory symptoms or abnormal chest x-ray at the time of presentation. Based on experience across the globe, these patients are likely to worsen at home. The study team therefore proposes a prospective, single-center, parallel group, open-label, randomized clinical trial to assess the efficacy of fixed low continuous positive airway pressure therapy (CPAP) (FDA approved and often used for treatment of sleep apnea) in COVID confirmed or suspected patients with abnormal chest x-ray or respiratory symptoms who do not require hospital admission and are discharged home from the emergency room.
This study investigates whether donors with previous exposure to COVID-19 can pass their immunity by hematopoietic (blood) stem cell transplant (HCT) donation to patients that have not been exposed. Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the virus that causes the COVID19 infection. This study may provide critical information for medical decision-making and possible immunotherapy interventions in immunocompromised transplant recipients, who are at high risk for COVID19 severe illness.
