COVID-19 Clinical Trials and Expanded Access

This phase II trial studies the effects of ibrutinib in treating patients with B-cell malignancies who are infected with COVID-19. Ibrutinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Ibrutinib is a first in class Bruton tyrosine kinase inhibitor (BTKi), for the treatment of B-cell malignancies. This study is being done to determine if taking ibrutinib after contracting COVID-19 will make symptoms better or worse.

The overall objective of this study is to efficiently evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of different investigational therapeutics among adults who have COVID-19 but are not yet sick enough to require hospitalization. The overall hypothesis is that through an adaptive trial design, potential effective therapies (single and combination) may be identified for this group of patients. COVID-19 Outpatient Pragmatic Platform Study (COPPS) is a pragmatic platform protocol designed to evaluate COVID-19 treatments by assessing their ability to reduce viral shedding (Viral Domain) or improve clinical outcomes (Clinical Domain). To be included into the platform, every investigational product will collect data for both Domain primary endpoints. Individual treatments to be evaluated in the platform will be described in separate sub-protocols.

Novel Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak seriously challenges worldwide health care systems. The current climate of anxiety due to COVID-19 and home confinement limiting access to emergency departments (ED) have induced an increase of phone calls to the emergency call center "15" medical advices. To determine if a pediatric telephone triage protocol may improve patient's pathways during COVID-19 outbreak, parental compliance is assessed after telephone advice, during and after home confinement (the end of home confinement in France was on May 11th 2020). From 14th April 2020 to 7th June 2020, all calls received by the platform of telephone calls at Children's Lenval Hospital during open hours and open days are collected. For each call, symptoms are recorded by trained physicians and trained residents using a telephonic triage tool through a directed interview. A medical orientation is recommended to parents at the end of their call. Follow-up are conducted 2 to 4 days after with their consent by telephone interview in order to evaluate their compliance

This is an open-label, pragmatic, single-dose study using matched controls in participants with mild to moderate COVID-19. Participants will track for developing symptoms while at home and upon reporting of symptoms will test for COVID-19. If positive for COVID-19, a one-time at-home infusion of Bamlanivimab (LY3819253) will be provided by Optum Infusion. Participants will then track for 28 days to assess for any additional medical care needed or if hospitalization was required.

This will be a randomized, open-label study to determine if camostat+ bicalutamide decreases the proportion of people with COVID-19 who require hospitalization, compared to historical controls. Patients with symptomatic COVID-19, diagnosed as outpatients, will be randomized 1:1, stratified by gender, to treatment with standard of care alone (Arm 1) or with camostat and bicalutamide (Arm 2).

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. Nosocomial acquisition of SARS-CoV-2 is a frequent concern across hospital settings in Canada and is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality. This clinical trial is initially designed to evaluate the role of monoclonal antibodies against the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, for the treatment of hospitalized patients who acquire COVID19 via nosocomial infection. New treatments, as they become available, may be integrated, with appropriate adaptation of this document. The trial was initiated with the bamlanivimab product with the options of casirivimab/imdesimab and sotrovimab added as the prevalence of bamlanivimab resistant variants of concerns increased. It is believed that monoclonal antibody treatments are most likely to be effective early in the disease course. The ability to rapidly identify and initiate such treatments in patients with nosocomial acquisition of the infection, combined with the high mortality of 25-30% experienced by this group of patients led us to propose this trial in collaboration with the CATCO national network. The overall objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody treatment relative to the control arm, in patients who develop nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection, on need for mechanical ventilation or death. This study is designed as a pragmatic randomized, open-label, controlled clinical trial. Subjects will be randomized to receive either standard-of-care (control) or the study medication on a 1:2 basis. Bamlanivimab, casirivimab/imdesimab or sotrovimab will be administered intravenously as a one-time infusion after randomization. Casirivimab/imdesimab (REGN) and sotrovimab will be the default agents based on local availability unless both are unavailable AND virus strain known to be native or alpha (B.1.1.7). Incidence of infusion-related reactions in the 24 hours post administration.

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 COVID-19 coronavirus has led to a global pandemic of respiratory diseases with an increase in hospitalization and death risk. To keep COVID-19 manageable for healthcare, early treatment is urgently needed to avoid hospitalization. Dexamethasone can dampen the exaggerated cytokine response to COVID-19 and is a promising agent for preventing disease aggravation, hospitalization and death. However, the evidence on the effectiveness, safety and cost-effectiveness of dexamethasone treatment in primary care is inconclusive.

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate whether remdesivir (RDV, GS-5734™) reduces the composite risk of death or invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) through Day 29 in participants with severely reduced kidney function who are hospitalized for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled trial comparing oral anticoagulation with placebo for community-dwelling patients with symptomatic COVID-19 infection and risk factors for thrombosis.
