NCT05077969
This study is designed to test the efficacy and safety of combinations of two well-understood agents - famotidine and celecoxib. Each of these agents separately demonstrate clinical activity in mitigating COVID-19 disease symptoms or severity, and each of which appear to have separate and complementary mechanisms of action.
NCT04778059
This trial will study the use of USB002 given as an intravenous infusion in patients with respiratory distress due to infection with COVID-19.
NCT05085574
This study is designed to test the efficacy and safety of combinations of two well-understood agents - famotidine and celecoxib in patients hospitalized with moderate-to-severe COVID-19 (based on World Health Organization \[WHO\] Ordinal Scale for Clinical Improvement). Both famotidine and celecoxib separately demonstrate clinical activity in mitigating COVID-19 disease symptoms or severity, and appear to have separate and complementary mechanisms of action.
NCT05375773
The emergence of a novel coronavirus(SARS-CoV-2) in late 2019 has resulted in a global epidemic of the infectious condition COVID-19. Since March 2022, the Omicron mutant has caused widespread transmission in Shanghai, China, and is characterized by the majority of asymptomatic patients. Although showing no obvious symptoms, the asymptomatic patients have high transmissibility because of high viral loads in their oropharynx and nasopharynx. Therefore,this study puts forwards the hypothesis that local flushing treatment in the sino-nasal and mouth cavity can reduce the viral load to reduce their transmissibility. Nasal Irrigation and gargling is a safe and commonly used mechanism to treat a variety of sinonasal diseases including sinusitis, rhinitis, and upper respiratory tract infections. Povidone-iodine(PVP-I) is a water-soluble complex of povidone, a carrier molecule, and iodine, which has powerful microbicidal activity. Also, recent evidence of in-vitro virucidal action of povidone-iodine in Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) has been supported. Therefore, the study is designed to assess the virucidal effect of nasal irrigation and gargling with PVP-I against SARS-CoV-2 located in the throat. The hypothesis was that the treatment would be effective in improving the negative conversion rate of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid on day 10.

Coronavirus infection, also known as COVID-19, has become a global pandemic with over 3 million cases and 250,000 deaths worldwide. Coronaviruses (CoV) belong to a family of viruses that predominately infect mammals and birds, affecting their lungs, intestinal tract, liver and nervous systems. Prior to the discovery of the current novel coronavirus strain (SARS-CoV-2), there were six different strains that are known to infect humans, which includes the virus that caused the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) pandemic in 2002. In humans, the majority of severe illness from SARs and COVID-19 is due to inflammation of the lungs and pneumonia. Pregnancy poses a significantly increased risk of viral pneumonia and during SARS more pregnant women required intensive care and breathing support, and the proportion of deaths was higher when compared to non-pregnant adults. Furthermore, kidney failure and development of abnormal blood clotting disorders, which occurs during severe infection, is more common in pregnancy and the associated changes in blood vessels extend to the placentas of infected pregnant women, thus potentially affecting the fetus. This makes pregnant women affected by the virus at high risk of developing severe complications. Fortunately, there have been a number of biomarkers identified that are associated with illness severity. These include, specialised white blood cells, blood clotting cells and constituents, as well as other measures of heart and kidney function. We propose that these biomarkers are important correlates of clinical disease severity and prognosis in pregnant and postnatal women. This knowledge has the potential to help clinicians during this pandemic to better manage and care for their patients.
