NCT07190131
This observational study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of an investigational Influenza A/B and COVID-19 test in patients presenting with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. What is the sensitivity and specificity of the investigational test compared with an FDA-cleared reference method for detection of Influenza A, Influenza B, and SARS-CoV-2 antigen. 2. What is the overall positive and negative percent agreement between the investigational test and the reference method? Participants will: 1. Provide a respiratory specimen (e.g., nasal or nasopharyngeal swab) for testing with the investigational device. 2. Provide an additional specimen for testing with the FDA-cleared reference method.
NCT06831786
This study, a pilot randomized controlled trial, single-blind (outcome assessor), evaluating the immune response (both humoral and cell-mediated) against SARS-CoV-2 and the safety of three different vaccine administration approaches: the SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine alone, the influenza vaccine alone, and the co-administration of both vaccines.
NCT07190911
The purpose of this study is to evaluate efficiency of two months of olfactive training on olfactory and taste loss secondary to covid-19. We will compare 2 groups : olfactive training group versus no olfactive training group.
NCT07134725
SpiN-Tec MCTI UFMG will be used as a vaccine booster against COVID-19 and will be evaluated using the active comparator, a vaccine approved by ANVISA (Brazilian Health Regulatory Agency). The study will consist of two parts: Part A) a Phase 1 dose-escalation clinical trial to assess safety and reactogenicity; followed by Part B) a Phase 2 clinical trial to assess the safety and immunogenicity of SpiN-Tec. The study will include healthy participants of both sexes, aged 18 to 85, who have already received the full COVID-19 vaccination schedule with CoronaVac® (Butantan) or Covishield® (AstraZeneca) and who have received one or two booster doses of Covishield® or Comirnaty® (Pfizer's RNA-based vaccine) at least 6 months ago. Participants may or may not have had natural SARS-CoV-2 infection.
NCT07126392
The COVID-19 pandemic dramatically increased health disparities. In the United States, \>79 million have been infected with SARS-CoV-2 and \>900,000 died, but cases and deaths disproportionately affect underserved populations. Novel treatments early in disease may transform the pandemic's course, but strategies that address disparities in timely testing and treatment access are essential to maximize impact. To address profound COVID-19 disparities, testing strategies should be developed together with community-trusted organizations in high-need areas identified with risk assessment strategies to address barriers to test access, determine infrastructure needs, and position testing to promote timely access, awareness and education, and engagement with health systems and local resources. The You \& Me Healthy (YMH) Toolkit is a guide to develop academic-community partnerships in underserved communities in response to public health threats. In this application, the investigators will evaluate the toolkit's role in preparing community-based test distribution and test and treat responses to the next phase of the COVID-19 pandemic in underserved populations. Widening COVID-19 health and education disparities will have a profound impact for generations, with infections and deaths disproportionally affecting underserved populations that have been historically marginalized. Inequitable risk of COVID-19 infection and unequal access to care have been observed among lower socio-economic and racial/ethnic minorities with higher hospitalization rates, lower recovery rates, and higher mortality. As outlined at the core of Public Health 3.0, local communities will lead the charge in taking public health to the next level and ensure its continued success. Within this framework community members serve as partners for research, and both community and research resources are leveraged to address social, environmental, and economic conditions that magnify health disparities in communities. Community engagement is increasingly being recognized as enhancing research quality and relevance to public health practice. Benefits of engaging communities have been reported in all stages of research including 1) identifying key research questions based on firsthand knowledge and insight from the field; 2) designing informed consent processes and research protocols that meet the needs of the community; 3) adapting public health interventions to be context-relevant; 4) identifying implementation processes to promote public health intervention feasibility and adoption; and 5) disseminating research results to make information more accessible.
NCT07118917
SARS-CoV-2 has infected more than 776 million people worldwide, raising concerns about its impact on patients with lung cancer, the most common cancer in men and the second most common cancer in women. Previous studies have suggested that COVID-19 may worsen lung dysfunction in patients undergoing surgery and that the coexistence of COVID-19 and lung cancer increases the risk of complications and mortality. It has been recommended that surgery be delayed after COVID-19 infection to reduce postoperative risk. This study examined the effects of prior COVID-19 infection on respiratory mechanics in patients undergoing thoracic surgery for lung cancer.
NCT06776276
The goal of this study is to see if Tai-Chi exercises (a type of Chinese martial arts) can help people suffering from insomnia after COVID-19 when added with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and drugs compared to CBT and drugs alone. All participants will receive education on sleep hygiene practices, and the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). If these approaches were insufficient, they will be given sleep aids, primarily Z-drugs. All study subjects engaged in a simple Tai Chi training program for two weeks. The Tai Chi training consisted of a series of gentle physical exercises that incorporated elements of meditation, body awareness, imagery, and abdominal breathing. A professional instructor conducted two training sessions for both patients and controls, ensuring that participants could perform the exercises independently at home during the last hour before sleep. Each session lasted twenty minutes, to be done daily. Participants were given a checklist documenting their sleep and exercise diary to confirm adherence for at least five days each week. After the two-week period, all participants are reassessed using the Insomnia severity index.
NCT06768697
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the SARS-CoV-2 subunit mucosal vaccine with the recombinant flagellin protein adjuvant works to Prevent COVID-19 infection. It will also learn about the Safety and immunogenicity of the vaccine.
NCT04672291
This is a randomized (4:1) Phase 1 b safety trial in adults who have completed their full COVID-19 vaccination schedule at least 30 days prior to study entry.
NCT04355052
Patients with COVID-19 which are 60 years old or above or with comorbidities are at risk of deteriorating and developing severe illness. This prospective open label study will include people 60 years old or above or younger if at risk for severe disease. Individuals confirmed to have SARS-CoV-2 infection will be identified using medical records screening. They will then be offered to participate in the study and if agree will be given the informed consent. After examining inclusion and exclusion criteria they will be asked to sign the informed consent and after signing Information like immunizations, ECG results, diagnostic images and reports, written medical reports, diagnostic lab testing results (e.g. blood tests, urine tests, blood bank info), allergies and intolerances (drug and food allergies, food intolerances), prescription history, and general patient information (e.g. name, birthdate, personal health number, address, phone number) will be gathered. Those who are not eligible for the study will be informed of the reason(s) for ineligibility (generally it will be a safety exclusion and they should be aware of this). Those who are eligible will be randomized to one of three arms: hydroxychloroquine + azithromycin, hydroxychloroquine + camostat mesylate or "doing nothing" in a ratio of 2:1:2. Study drug will be dispensed by the hospital pharmacy. Follow up will continue for 8 weeks.
