866 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
This retrospective analysis of inpatient data obtained from administrative and electronic medical records will investigate the role of empiric antibiotics on admission on the mortality for non-intubated patients presenting with Novel Coronavirus Diseases 2019 (COVID-19) associated pneumonia without extra-pulmonary sources of infection or septic shock.
The Innovative Support for Patients with SARS COV-2 Infections Registry (INSPIRE) study is a CDC-funded COVID-19 project to understand the long-term health outcomes in recently tested adults, both negative and positive, who have suspected COVID symptoms at the time of their test. Participants will complete short online surveys every 3 months for 18 months, share information about their health using a secure web-based platform, and are compensated for their time.
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.
Previous research has shown that high dose intravenous vitamin C (HDIVC) may benefit patients with sepsis, acute lung injury (ALI), and the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). However, it is not known if early administration of HDIVC could prevent progression to ARDS. We hypothesize that HDIVC is safe and tolerable in Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) subjects given early or late in the disease course and may reduce the risk of respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation and development of ARDS along with reductions in supplemental oxygen demand and inflammatory markers.
This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.
10 asymptomatic DHCWs in the Oral Medicine clinic, Rutgers School of Dental Medicine, with no history of documented COVID-19 infection or viral exposure, were enrolled in a study that interrogated DHCWs' perceptions of safety and adoption of risk mitigation behavior. Following a baseline survey, finger-prick blood samples were collected twice two weeks apart using an innovative microsampling technique that replaces the need for venipuncture. Samples were processed using an in-house ELISA assay to detect IgM and IgG directed against the Receptor Binding Domain (RBD) of the Spike protein. Weekly Rapid Antigen testing of nasal swab specimens was used to document Antigen negativity during the study.
A pilot study was initiated to assess feasibility of testing asymptomatic dental patients presenting to the Oral Medicine Clinic at Rutgers School of Dental Medicine for SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA using an FDA approved RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV2- an RNA RT-PCR assay (Accurate Diagnostics)
This is Phase 1 study is to assess tolerability and immunogenicity of three dose levels of the investigational HDT-301 vaccine administered intramuscularly (IM), both in immunization-naïve participants and as a booster for those participants who previously received a SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Safety and tolerability will be the primary endpoint assessed by incidence of adverse events at each dose through 12 months after completion of the vaccination regimen (either one dose, or two doses provided 56 days apart). Immunogenicity evaluations will be conducted for pre-specified timepoints as secondary and exploratory endpoints.
To evaluate the HyperDetector as a method to rapidly screen SARS-CoV-2 To determine the sensitivity and specificity of the screening assay performed on oral swab and saliva specimens, compared to a validated RT-PCR COVID-19 method using nasal or nasopharyngeal swabs and to separately collected nasal swabs, oral swabs, oral rinse and saliva samples. To determine the best workflow for using such an assay to reflex suspicious/positive samples to a validated RT-PCR COVID-19 assay.
The primary objective of this study is to provide expanded access of remdesivir (RDV) for the treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV2) infection.

The therapeutic hypothesis for the use of losmapimod in COVID-19 disease is that increased mortality and severe disease is caused by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated exaggerated acute inflammatory response resulting from SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study Sponsor hypothesizes that the early initiation of p38α/β inhibitor therapy in patients hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 who are at increased risk of a poor prognosis based on older age and elevated systemic inflammation will reduce clinical deterioration including progression to respiratory failure and death. To address this hypothesis, Fulcrum Therapeutics is conducting a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of losmapimod versus placebo in subjects 40 and older who are hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 disease.
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficiency of an assembled modified mask in protecting health care workers against Coronavirus in case of any personal protective equipment shortage. At least 20 healthy participants will be recruited to try the modified mask. The modified masks will be made from masks that are already available as well as filters available in the pulmonary department at the Oklahoma City VA Health Care System
This study will evaluate the safety of administering an additional dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine or mRNA bivalent COVID-19 booster vaccine to individuals who have had adverse reactions to a previous dose or administering an initial dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to individuals with a personal history of allergic reaction. In addition, this study will evaluate the safety of administering an initial or additional dose or bivalent booster of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine to individuals experiencing an adverse reaction to a natural COVID-19 infection ("long COVID"). Eligible participants enrolled in this trial will receive an initial or additional dose of either the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 bivalent vaccine or the Moderna COVID-19 bivalent vaccine. Participants will also be required to have 1-2 in person visits along with phone call follow up visits. We hypothesize that individuals who have had adverse reactions to a previous dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine will tolerate an additional dose of the primary mRNA vaccine or bivalent booster, as indicated, and those with a personal history of allergic reaction will tolerate an initial dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine. We also hypothesize that those individuals experiencing an adverse reaction will tolerate an initial or additional dose of a primary mRNA COVID-19 bivalent vaccine, as indicated. The study hypothesizes that individuals that have had adverse reactions to a dose of an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine will tolerate an additional dose and those with a personal history of allergic reaction will tolerate vaccination with an mRNA COVID-19 vaccine.
Parasympathetic nervous system (PNS) is part of the body's autonomic nervous system(PNS) protects body against inflammation. Study shows that reduced PNS function activity is associated with persistent inflammation. Preliminary data from the studies shows, that post-COVID-19 POTS patients have reduced parasympathetic (PNS) function. Given that the PNS protects against inflammation, this clinical trial aims to prove that post-COVID-19 POTS is caused by reduced PNS activity, which in turn, contributes to persistent inflammation, orthostatic intolerance, and OI symptoms. The study will evaluate immune cell activation in post-COVID-19 POTS and patients with history of COVID-19 infection without sequelae and correlate this with the degree of decreased PNS activity.
The evidence-based Concordant Care approach involves engaging in processes that: 1) validate the patient's experience, 2) develop a shared understanding of the condition, and 3) create a patient-centered, whole health-oriented action plan to manage the condition. This is consistent with published expert opinion that Concordant Care underlies patients' (and clinicians') positive experiences of care for poorly understood conditions. Despite strong evidence supporting this care approach, there are no interventions to train clinicians on practices to provide Concordant Care for Veterans with poorly understood conditions such as Long-COVID. Part 1 of the study will optimize and test if a Concordant Care training improves VA clinicians' engagement in recommended practices to provide Concordant Care (i.e., validate, shared understanding, action plan) for Veterans with Long-COVID. This study will adapt and refine Concordant Care training for Long-COVID. Part 2 of this study will determine if Concordant Care training increases clinicians' engagement in recommended practices to provide Concordant Care and will explore the effectiveness of Concordant Care on care outcomes including satisfaction, adherence to care, \& disability for Veterans with Long-COVID. Veterans treated by clinicians receiving Concordant Care training will report their clinician more frequently engaged in recommended conversations (i.e., ask about Long-COVID, validate experience with Long-COVID, create a shared understanding and action plan), and Veterans will perceive greater shared understanding of Long-COVID with their clinicians than Veterans treated by clinicians in the control arm.
Recent advances have been made in prevention of the viral infection via vaccines but there is still need for effective treatment options for patients. Novel therapies need to be developed to further improve clinical outcomes. The biggest medical challenge in the response to COVID-19 is ARDS requiring hospitalization in an intensive care setting and ventilator dependence. Intravenously administered umbilical cord derived exosomes and stem cells have been reported in literature to alleviate pulmonary distress in such patients. The purpose of this study is to explore the safety and benefits of intravenous administration of WJPure and EVPure in the treatment of COVID-19 patients with moderate to severe ARDS. .
This is an open label, phase I dose-escalation study to evaluate the safety of coronavirus-specific T cell (CST) therapy for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection in immunocompromised patients following hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Participants will receive donor-derived CSTs for prevention of SARS-CoV-2 infection after HSCT (≥28 days and \<4 months after HSCT). In this dose escalation trial, three doses (1x107/m2, 2x107/m2, and 4x107/m2) will be tested for safety, with study arms for adult (≥18 years of age and \<80 years) HSCT recipients (Arm A) and pediatric (≥12 years of age and \<18 years) HSCT recipients (Arm B), and defined dose escalations in each study arm. The study agent will be assessed for safety (stopping rules defined) and antiviral activity.
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn whether the study medicine prevent symptoms of COVID-19 in adults who have been exposed to household member(s) with a confirmed symptomatic COVID-19 infection. All participants in the study will receive treatment for COVID-19 as needed, based on their regular doctor's recommendation. Two-thirds of participants will also receive two study medicines (PF-07321332 and ritonavir) by mouth twice a day for either five or ten days. We will compare the experiences of people receiving the study medicines to those of the people who do not. This will help us determine if the study medicines are safe and effective
This is a randomized, double-blinded, Phase 3, multi-center trial of the clinical and microbiologic response of patients with a respiratory tract infection (RTI) due to coronavirus treated with a combination of azithromycin and hydroxychloroquine. Approximately 200 patients with symptoms of an RTI who test positive for SARS-CoV-2 by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) will receive a combination of azithromycin 500 mg and hydroxychloroquine 600 mg or matching placebos for six consecutive days. There will be two treatment regimens into which patients are randomized so that all patients will receive some active therapy.
Surfactant protein plays important role in innate immunity against respiratory viral infections. However, investigators have shown that the surfactant protein polymorphisms are associated with severity of various pulmonary diseases such as respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), tuberculosis, pediatric acute lung injury. COVID-19 virus gains entry through the respiratory system and responsible for death due to acute respiratory failure. There is a considerable heterogeneity in presentation of COVID-19 infection from asymptomatic patients to severe infection requiring intensive care and some may die. Considering reports of COVID-19 related deaths/severe disease in the same family, it is possible that genetics play an important role in severity of COVID-19 infection. Investigators propose to study the association of surfactant proteins in COVID-19 patients. Key Objectives: a) Characterize genetic markers within the surfactant protein genes in COVID-19 positive patients, b) To determine if there is a correlation between certain genetic markers and the severity of COVID-19 infection which may be used as a prognostic marker, c) To correlate genetic markers with immune studies.
Background: COVID-19 is an infection caused by a coronavirus. It can affect different parts of the body. For most people, it causes fevers or trouble breathing. Some people can have symptoms long after they recover. Researchers want to learn if there are signs of changes in the nervous system that may be related to COVID-19. Objective: To test the nervous system (the brain and nerves) in people who have had COVID-19 yet still have certain symptoms even after recovering. Eligibility: People age 18 and older who had COVID-19 and still have neurologic symptoms after they recovered from the initial infection. Design: Participants will be screened with a medical record review. Participants will have a neurological exam. They will complete pen-and-paper tests of their memory and thinking. They will complete a smell test with 'scratch-and-sniff' booklets. They will give blood samples. Participants will have magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the brain. Soft padding or a coil will be placed around their head. They will lie on a table that slides in and out of the MRI scanner. They will get a contrast dye through an intravenous (IV) catheter. Participants blood pressure, blood flow, skin temperature, sweating, and breathing will be monitored. Participants will have an electrocardiogram to measure heart function. Participants will blow into a mouthpiece for several seconds. Participants will lie on a table that has a motor. The motor tilts the table. Participants will have blood drawn through an IV as the table tilts. Participants will have a lumbar puncture. A small needle will be inserted into the spinal canal to obtain fluid. Participants may repeat some tests 8 weeks to 1 year later.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether rivaroxaban reduces the risk of a composite endpoint of major venous and arterial thrombotic events, all-cause hospitalization, and all-cause mortality compared with placebo in outpatients with acute, symptomatic Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Infection.
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effectiveness and safety of treatment with clazakizumab compared to a placebo (inactive substance). We are proposing to try this drug to treat coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Patients with COVID-19 infection have been shown to have increases in certain inflammatory processes. Clazakizumab is an antibody (immune system protein) that blocks certain inflammatory processes. The treatment plan is to attempt to inhibit or block these inflammatory processes in order to try to limit the damage COVID-19 causes to the lungs.
Evelo will investigate the safety and efficacy of EDP1815 in the treatment of patients hospitalized with SARS-CoV-2 Infection
In this trial patients will be treated with either a combination of therapies to treat COVID-19 or a placebo. Treatment will last 10 days, and patients will be followed for 6 months.
Clinical specimens are collected from individuals either recovered from or with active SARS-CoV-2 infection to support process and analytical development for a potential cell-based immunotherapy in preclinical research, SRPH-CVD-01. SRPH-CVD-01 is an allogeneic cell-based immunotherapy candidate to be investigated in a subsequent clinical trial under a future FDA IND to treat people suffering from COVID-19. Enrolled participants provide a venous blood specimen (up to 40mL) to be used in preclinical studies and research and development of SRPH-CVD-01. Subjects may eventually be asked to undergo leukapheresis for peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) collection and their specimens will be used to further develop the SRPH-CVD-01 cell product, including a cGMP compliant process to be applied under the future FDA IND.
