Role of Inflammasomes in COVID-19 Disease

The unfavorable course of the patients is characterized on the immunological level by an intense pro-inflammatory response which can go as far as a cytokinic storm. This pandemic affects a naive world population from an immunological point of view with respect to SARS-CoV-2 responsible for COVID-19.

Low Dose Radiotherapy for COVID-19 Pneumonitis

Low dose radiotherapy (LD-RT) ( 100 cGy) induces an anti-inflammatory response, lowering levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1 or inhibit leukocyte recruitment. LD-RT has been used historically for the pneumonia treatment reporting a rapid clinical improvement (within the first week), as well as a reduced mortality (from around 30% …

NEUROwave - Xtracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) in Acute Traumatic Complete (AIS A) and Incomplete (AIS B-D) Cross-sectional Lesions on Motor and Sensory Function Within Six Months After Injury

This mechanical injury leads to a cascade of biochemical and pathological changes, described as ''secondary injury'', which occurs minutes to weeks after the initial trauma and causes further neurological deterioration. This secondary cascade involves vascular changes, an inflammatory response, neurotoxicity, apoptosis and glial scarring, and further compromises neurological impairment after …

Study of LAU-7b for the Treatment of COVID-19 Disease in Adults

A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2 Study of LAU-7b against confirmed COVID-19 Disease in hospitalized patients at a higher risk of complications.

Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of an Immunomodulatory Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Moderate to Severe COVID-19 Infection

An Open-label, prospective, randomized, comparative, multiple doses applied in addition to the standard of care treatment of patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infection

Fiber Metabolism in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

The impact of fiber intake on short chain fatty acid (SCFA) metabolism has not been studied in subjects suffering from COPD. The purpose of this study is to compare changes in SCFA metabolism after inulin vs. placebo intake in COPD patients to healthy matched controls. This protocol is an extension …

An Investigation on the Effects of Icosapent Ethyl (VascepaTM) on Inflammatory Biomarkers in Individuals With COVID-19

This is a 14-day long prospective, multi-site, two-armed, randomized, open-label study that will enroll approximately 100 adult outpatients in Canada who have received a positive SARS-CoV-2 test result within the preceding 72 hours. Participants will be randomized (1:1) to receive either icosapent ethyl (4 g BID for 3 days, then …

Safety and Efficacy of Tocilizumab in Moderate to Severe COVID-19 With Inflammatory Markers

The trial evaluates the efficacy and safety of Tocilizumab, which rapidly reduces the inflammation process through inhibition of IL-6 in patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 with increased inflammatory markers. There will be two arms in the trial, one receiving the best supportive care, and the other receiving it plus …
