793 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Background: SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. Some people who recover from COVID-19 have long-term symptoms that affect the brain. These include headaches; loss of taste and smell; sleep problems; thinking problems; depression; and anxiety. Researchers want to know if a tracer (a substance that is injected into a person s body before an imaging scan) can help identify inflammation in people with these brain disorders. Objective: To see if a radioactive tracer (\[11C\]PS13) can highlight brain inflammation in those who had COVID-19 but still have symptoms that affect the brain. Eligibility: Adults aged 18 to 70 years with post COVID-19 brain disorders who are enrolled in protocol 000089 or 000711. Healthy volunteers are also needed. Design: Participants will have up to 5 clinic visits. Participants will be screened. They will have blood tests and a test of their heart function. They will have imaging scans: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI): They will lie on a table that slides into a metal tube. Pictures will be taken of the brain. Positron emission tomography (PET): A needle attached to a thin tube will be inserted into a vein in the arm. The tracer will be injected through the tube. Another needle attached to a thin tube will be inserted into the wrist or inside of the elbow of the other arm to draw blood. They will lie still on a bed while a machine captures images of their brain. The scan will last about 2 hours. Study involvement is 11 to 14 weeks....
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the virus-specific immune response in people who are symptomatic with confirmed influenza or COVID-19. We will study the immune response of people who have and who have not been vaccinated with the seasonal influenza and COVID-19 vaccines within the past year. All participants will have data collected and blood, saliva, and nasal swabs performed at five separate visits; 1) at study enrollment, 2) on study day 7, 3) on or between study days 10 to 28, 4) on study day 90, and 5) on study day 180. For participants who agree to the optional sub-study, bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and endobronchial biopsy (EBBx) will be performed once between study days 10 and 28 and once at study day 180. As part of the bronchoscopy procedure, two chest x-rays will be performed. The bronchoscopy and chest x-ray procedures are not required for participation in the study.
Background: SARS-CoV-2 is the virus that causes COVID-19. Some people who recover from COVID-19 have symptoms that last long after the active infection ends. This is called long COVID. Sometimes, long COVID can affect the nerves and cause problems with sleep, thinking, the senses, and movement. Researchers want to find out whether people with long COVID have retained inactive remnants of SARS-CoV-2 in their bodies. Objective: To collect tissue samples to see if people with long COVID have remnants of SARS-CoV-2 in their bodies. Eligibility: People 18 years or older who have recovered from COVID-19, both with and without neurologic symptoms. Design: Participants will have 2 to 4 inpatient or outpatient visits over 4 months. Each visit will last 4 to 5 days. Participants will be screened to make sure it is safe to collect tissue samples from their body. They will have a physical and dental exam. They will have imaging scans and a test of their heart function. They will complete questionnaires about their health. They will give blood, urine, saliva, and stool samples. Their sense of taste and smell will be tested. Tissue samples will be taken from the digestive tract, lungs, colon, skin, muscle, lymph nodes, nasal passages, and mouth. Participants may be numbed or sedated for some of the procedures. Swabs will be used to collect cells from inside the mouth and nose. Participants will undergo lumbar puncture. A thin needle will be inserted into their lower back to draw out a sample of the fluid around their spinal cord. Participants will have follow-up phone calls after each clinic visit.
The SARS-CoV-2 BioMedomics Rapid Antigen Screening Test (COV-SCAN) is an at-home rapid antigen COVID-19 antigen screening test device. The primary objectives of this study are to 1) Evaluate the clinical performance of COV-SCAN; 2.) Assess the usability of COV-SCAN and the paired app as an over-the-counter product to be used by lay persons in non- laboratory settings. The clinical performance and usability data will be submitted as part of an application for Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) to the FDA. 3) Assess acceptability and feasibility of the COV-SCAN test, paired app, and frequent testing regimen in demonstration projects in university and workforce settings.
The present study aims to investigate the safety and immunogenicity of the Novavax JN.1 subvariant vaccine SARS-CoV-2 rS adjuvanted with Matrix-M (NVX CoV2705) in previously vaccinated adults. A descriptive comparison will be made with participants who received the prior authorized vaccine NVX-CoV2601 in an earlier study (2019nCoV-313).
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.
This is an open-label phase 1/2, dose-escalation study. Participants will receive a single intramuscular (IM) dose of IMNN-101 on Day 0 in the deltoid muscle and will be followed through 12 months post-vaccination (through Study Day 365).
The Metrix COVID/Flu Test will be evaluated for use in Point-of-Care and Non-Laboratory settings in a home testing environment utilizing the clinical study design described herein. The study will take place in simulated home environments which will be set up within or near active clinical settings (e.g., urgent care facilities). This will be a prospective study conducted at three or more investigational sites located within the United States for the clinical validation of the Metrix COVID/Flu Test for the differential detection of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B in AN swab or saliva samples. Additional sites may be added to the study in order to meet minimum subject/sample enrollment requirements and geographic prevalence of respiratory virus infections. One or more investigational sites outside of the US (at which participants are required to be fluent in English) may also be included in the study depending on enrollment needs and geographical/seasonal prevalence of respiratory virus infections. Comparator testing will be performed to determine the infection status of each sample for comparison to results generated by the candidate test. The primary comparator for the study will be an FDA-cleared assay for the detection of SARS-CoV-2, Flu A, and/or Flu B.
This study seeks to evaluate communication strategies for better encouraging understanding and uptake of salivary SARS-CoV-2 antibody testing among individuals residing in rural Northern Michigan. This iteration will consider individuals recruited from rural Northern Michigan and assess individuals' willingness to participate in home-based saliva sample collections.
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 study team proposes to evaluate the efficacy of Astepro® 0.15% nasal spray in treating SARS-CoV-2 infection in adults through a pilot and feasibility clinical trial at the University of Chicago.
The goal of this observational study is to compare the FINDER FLU A/B, RSV, SARS-CoV-2 Test to an FDA-cleared device. The study will utilize prospectively collected de-identified nasopharyngeal samples obtained from both pediatric and adult populations from subjects presenting with symptoms of respiratory illness. The main question it aims to answer are: • the study is to validate that the device intended use in terms that the device's performance meets the criteria for substantial equivalence with a predicate and satisfies the statutory criteria for Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) waiver.
The purpose of this study is to measure the proportion of participants who are infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction \[RT-PCR\] test) and have coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) symptom(s) with S-217622 tablets compared with placebo tablets in participants who are household contacts of an individual with symptomatic COVID-19.
Persistent viral infection with viral reservoirs and detection of circulating spike protein after the initial acute illness is one potential pathogenic mechanism for Long COVID. This mechanism may be able to be targeted by SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). This trial will study the safety and efficacy of AER002 to treat individuals with Long COVID in an adult population.
Hospitalized patients with severe COVID-19 have an increased incidence of insulin resistance, impaired beta cell function, glucose intolerance (prediabetes), and overt type 2 diabetes (T2D) compared to non-hospitalized patients with COVID-19 and COVID-19 negative individuals on long-term follow up.
Prospective cohort study to evaluate the utility of quantitative CT analysis to assess ventilation and perfusion defects in patients with Post-acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) and functional limitations
This is a prospective multicenter study conducted to evaluate the performance of the LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 \& Flu A/B tests at point of care sites. Subjects presenting with symptoms suggestive of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and Influenza at the time of the study visit will be enrolled and asked to donate swab sample(s) for testing on the device under evaluation.
The goal of this observational study is to evaluate new non-invasive passive surveillance technologies, Level 42 AI imPulse™ Una and TOR devices for the detection of COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV in asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals over age of 18 undergoing COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV screening and testing at BAMC Ft Sam Houston, TX; with and without COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV. The hypotheses are: (H1) The imPulseTM Una and the imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscopes have at least a similar discriminative and detection ability among symptomatic and asymptomatic COVID-19 carrier versus those not infected compared to gold standard RT-PCR. We will operationalize and deploy both the imPulseTM Una and imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscope into DoD use-cases and compare their usability between the devices. (H2) Identify if the imPulseTM Una and the imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscopes have at least a similar discriminative and detection ability among symptomatic and asymptomatic Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Influenza and Long COVID carriers versus those not infected compared to gold standard Rapid RSV and Flu Antigen Tests, or RT-PCR and molecular assays. We will operationalize and deploy both the imPulseTM Una and imPulseTM TOR e-stethoscope into DoD use-cases and compare their captured traces in the early identification of disease/illness analyzed by the devices built in algorithms. (H3) In the mid to long-term, this approach will also be explored as a diagnostic system to explore pursue the physical (structural and mechanical) properties of cells and tissues that maintain normal cell behavior (motility, growth, apoptosis), and the critical importance of the ability of cells to sense and respond to mechanical stresses, which will be operationally critical for assessment of both traumatic and unconventional exposures in austere environments. Participants will: * Be consented; * Be screened for COVID-19, Flu, and/or RSV symptoms according to BAMC's current screening procedures; * Have study data collected; * Complete a symptoms questionnaire; * imPulseTM Una and TOR e-stethoscopes examination will be conducted; * Participants will be compensated for completing all study requirements. (Active-Duty personnel must complete the study procedures while off-duty in order to receive compensation.)
This is a prospective multicenter study conducted to evaluate the performance of the LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 Ag Ultra test in detecting severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and LumiraDx SARS-CoV-2 \& Flu A/B test in differential detection of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A (Flu A) and Influenza B (Flu B) at point of care sites. Subjects presenting with symptoms suggestive of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and/or Influenza at the time of the study visit will be enrolled and asked to donate swab sample(s) for testing in the device(s) under evaluation.
This clinical imaging study will use the small molecule translocator protein (TSPO) ligand, Fluorodeoxyglucose(18F)-labeled DPA-714, to visualize and quantify neuroinflammation in individuals with post-acute sequelae of SARS-CoV-2 (PASC) . The brain uptake of DPA-714 will be contrasted with healthy subjects.
The overarching goal of this study is to develop PET/MR techniques for the diagnosis of neuropsychiatric post-acute sequelae (PASC) of SARS-CoV-2. The central hypothesis is that immunological and cerebrovascular dysfunction after acute SARS-CoV-2 infections mediate neuropsychiatric PASC (NP-PASC).
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.

SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen over the counter clinical performance evaluation
The current pilot study will recruit participants experiencing new, returning, or ongoing symptoms related to COVID-19 illness for at least four weeks after being first infected with SARS-CoV-2. All participants will attend a virtual 6-week course entitled Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPs) created, hosted and led by expert facilitators from the Mindful Awareness Research Center (MARC) at University of California Los Angeles (UCLA). This intervention will consist of a mix of lecture, practice, group feedback, and discussion regarding mindfulness. Mindfulness is the mental state achieved by focusing one's awareness on the present while acknowledging and accepting any feelings, thoughts, or bodily sensations. The research team will collect self-reported measures of mental health symptoms, physical health symptoms, and demographic information before and after participants attend MAPs. Objective health measures will also be collected by the research team including an active stand test, a 6-minute walk, and a blood sample.
SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen over the counter clinical performance evaluation.
This is a Phase 2, randomized, parallel-group, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 14-week study designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of TNX-102 SL 5.6 mg (2 x 2.8 mg tablets) taken once daily at bedtime for the management of multi-site pain associated with Long COVID.
The purpose of this study is to describe the long-term health effects of COVID-19 in a population of mostly Black and Latinx individuals and their households who were diagnosed with COVID-19 at Columbia University Irving Medical Center. In New York, the upper Manhattan and south Bronx communities neighboring Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) have been two of the most impacted communities of the COVID-19 pandemic. These neighborhoods are predominantly non-Hispanic black or African American and Latinx. This study will invite people who tested positive for COVID-19 and/or were treated at Columbia University Irving Medical Center to: 1) take a survey to ask about current symptoms and any health problems and 2) ask permission to review COVID-related health history including COVID-19 testing results (from the medical record) since infection to learn about health effects after COVID-19 infection; 3) invite anyone in their household to take a survey; and 4) for up to 500 patients who were hospitalized for COVID, give the option of doing a nasal swab to test for SARS-CoV-2 virus and blood test to check for antibody up to 12 months after diagnosis, to compare how results are different 12 months after infection. The goal is to learn about how the severity of person's infection in 2020 influences long term health effects and how others in their household are impacted by COVID-19.
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.
If a treated cancer patient cannot make antibodies to a Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) or approved vaccine, their risk for infection and its sequelae are significantly increased. The Astra-Zeneca Immuno-Suppressed Program (AISP) is designed to address whether a patient treated for cancer who receives a single-dose of Evusheld (AZD7442) 600 mg IM or IV will maintain a stable/protective effect against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection including SARS-CoV-2 related hospitalization and/or SARS-CoV-2 related death up to 12 months post-baseline. The program will focus on patients with cancer who have been treated with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted therapy, other therapy or combination therapy with or without radiation therapy within 12 months prior to enrollment, are willing/able to receive one IM or IV injection of Evusheld, are able to complete 14 Patient Experience/Clinical Outcome Assessment (COA) surveys, 6 Quality of Life (QoL) assessments and are willing to allow serum concentrations of Evusheld to be drawn 9 times, 3 SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Binding Domain-Immunoglobulin G (RBD-IgG) tests, and T-cell assay to be drawn once. In the event of a symptomatic break-thru SARS-CoV-2 positive infection by SARS-COV-2 Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) by Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) test, the patient will have an additional Evusheld serum concentration, SARS-CoV-2 RBD-IgG antibody level and T-cell assay obtained in a temporally related manner. The program requires treatment with Evusheld 600 mg IM or IV.
