COVID-19 Clinical Trials and Expanded Access

This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of molnupiravir (MK-4482) compared to placebo. The primary hypothesis is that molnupiravir is superior to placebo as assessed by the rate of sustained recovery through Day 29.

This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of molnupiravir (MK-4482) compared to placebo. The primary hypothesis is that molnupiravir is superior to placebo as assessed by the percentage of participants who are hospitalized and/or die through Day 29

This study will assess the efficacy and safety of DHODHi (brequinar) as an antiviral via 5 days of treatment of participants with positive COVID-19 and at least one symptom of COVI019 in an out-patient setting. The study is multi-center, randomized, and placebo-controlled.

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy of PF-06650833 in addition to standard-of-care compared to standard-of-care treatment alone in improving outcomes in patients with COVID-19.

This study is an adaptive, randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial, performed worldwide in collaboration with WHO and INSERM.

In this study we will be monitoring for patient events (emergency department admission, hospital admission, admission to an observation unit, or death) and evaluating the feasibility and utility of using pinpointIQ in the management of patients with COVID-19. Vital sign (physiology data) is collected to build a Covid Decompensation Index and contribute data to a Covid Digital Hub supported by the National Institutes of Health.

This multicentre prospective study will enroll a sufficient number of patients to afford approximately 60 positives and > 40 negatives (as determined by the SOC - Comparator method) in the United States and/or Canada. One to three sites in the United States and/or Canada will participate over an approximate 12-week enrolment period. The actual enrolment period will be dependent upon prevalence of Covid-19. Once positives sample size is achieved, expected SARC-CoV-2 negative subjects will be permitted. This study is observational and will not impact the medical management of the patient. The results of the Spartan Test will be blinded to the clinical staff during the study and will not impact the medical management of the subject. Once informed consent is obtained and eligibility is confirmed, subject demographics, and patient reported COVID-19 symptoms will be recorded. For the purposes of this study, enrolment will be defined as the collection of the two study-specific nasopharyngeal (NP) samples for Spartan's Test. Each patient's active involvement in the study will last for approximately 30 minutes. To support the EUA, a minimum of 30 individual natural positive clinical specimens will be collected from patients suspected of SARS-CoV-2 infection by a healthcare provider in COVID-19 disease endemic regions in the United States. Additionally, a minimum of 30 individual negative samples will also be used to support the EUA from patients in the United States. Once subjects are consented and recruited for the study, three nasopharyngeal samples for each patient will be collected by trained operators at the clinical site. The first sample will be tested at the clinical site according to standard of care protocols currently in place for the sites' nasopharyngeal swab-based SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR testing. The second nasopharyngeal sample will be tested at the site using the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System. The third nasopharyngeal sample will be tested using the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System only when the test conducted with the second nasopharyngeal swab does not produce a positive or negative result. The sample for the SOC test will be collected prior to the samples for the Spartan COVID-19 v2 System as per clinical regulations.

The health crisis imposed by COVID-19 is forcing major worldwide social reorganization that will have profound consequences on our society. Currently, one-third of the world's population (~3 billion individuals) is living under some kind of isolation or quarantine measures, causing an unprecedented and rapidly evolving psychosocial crisis. The psychosocial consequences of this health crisis will persist long after restriction measures are lifted and the pandemic is over. This impact will be significant for individuals facing unique contexts or challenges (e.g., older adults, individuals living with a disability, underprivileged families) and will most likely exacerbate existing social and gender inequalities in health and human development. There is an urgent need for information on the evolution of the psychosocial dimensions of health and coping strategies used by our population and our health and social services structures. Thus, this study is designed to accelerate the availability of high-quality, real-time evidence within health and social services structures to address, support and minimize psychosocial consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic. Through constantly evolving research questions responsive to the course of the pandemic evolution, the rapid system transformations and adaptation of services, and knowledge users (KUs) needs, MAVIPAN aims to address, document, monitor, and evaluate the following: 1. Individuals and families' adjustments and mitigation strategies, especially for those considered vulnerable and in high-risk contexts. 2. Healthcare and social services workers and managers' adjustments and mitigation strategies. 3. The organization of service structures. 4. The social and economic response. To achieve these objectives, we use a mixed methods study design that combines quantitative questionnaires and qualitative interviews to deepen our understanding of elements such as the coping strategies used during the pandemic. A first measure was taken during lock-down as well as a follow-up at 3 months. Another follow-up will be made at 7 months. At least one per year follow-up will be made over the course of the study (5 years). Additional measures may be taken depending on the evolution of the pandemic and the sanitary measures put in place by the authorities.

Currently there is an important need to know the evolution, results and associated mortality of patients undergoing surgical intervention in Spain during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. With a national data collection, information could be obtained to guide the management of this group of complex patients operated on during the COVID-19 pandemic, with the aim of improving their treatment in the event of a second wave. The great spread of the virus and the difficulty in controlling it over time makes it a high priority for the scientific community in order to face new outbreaks. The national study "AEC COVID-19" is a collaborative study (in the style of those carried out at European level such as Eurosurg, Globalsurg, etc.) that aims to know the evolution, results and associated mortality of patients undergoing surgical intervention in Spain during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. It is an observational study, with anonymized and coded data, which aims to demonstrate the following hypotheses: - Patients with COVID-19 have high mortality. - Patients with both oncological and benign pathologies have high morbidity. The situation / follow-up at 7 days and 30 days after the intervention will be included in each patient.

Our goal in this study is to investigate the feasibility and acceptability of virtual parental presence of parents on anxiety in children at induction of anesthesia at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, an institution whose use of parental presence on induction is deeply ingrained in our culture, and to determine the impact of coaching of parents either prior to arrival at the hospital vs. on the day of surgery on efficacy of virtual parental presence on induction. Our primary hypothesis is that virtual PPIA is both feasibile for the smooth induction of general anesthesia and is acceptable to parents, patients, and anesthesia providers at our isntutition. Our secondary hypothesis is that the coaching of parents prior to virtual PPIA enhances the effect of video parental presence at induction of anesthesia on children's anxiety and that coaching prior to arrival at the hospital will allow for increased ease and use of this technique.
