There are 2 clinical trials
In December 2019,a new type of pneumonia caused by the coronavirus (COVID-2019) broke out in Wuhan ,China, and spreads quickly to other Chinese cities and 28 countries. More than 70000 people were infected and over 2000 people died all over the world. There is no specific drug treatment for this disease. Considering that lung damage is related to both viral infection and burst of cytokines, our idea is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of escin as add-on treatment to conventional antiviral drugs in COVID-19 infected patients.
Description: All cause mortality
Measure: Mortality rate Time: up to 30 daysDescription: mild type:no No symptoms, Radiological examination: no pneumonia; possible mild increase in C-reactive portein 2, moderate type: fever, cough, or other respiratory symptoms. Radiological examination: pneumonia, SpO2>93% without oxygen inhalation ; increase in C reactive protein, 3: severe type: a. Rate ≥30bpm;b. Pulse Oxygen Saturation (SpO2)≤93% without oxygen inhalation,c. PaO2/FiO2(fraction of inspired oxygen )≤300mmHg ;4. Critically type:match any of the follow: a. need mechanical ventilation; b. shock; c. (multiple organ dysfunction syndrome) MODS
Measure: Clinical status evaluated in agreement with guidelines Time: up to 30 daysDescription: Pulse Oxygen Saturation(SpO2)>93%,1. No need for supplemental oxygenation; 2. nasal catheter oxygen inhalation(oxygen concentration%,The oxygen flow rate:L/min);3. Mask oxygen inhalation(oxygen concentration%,The oxygen flow rate:L/min);4. Noninvasive ventilator oxygen supply(Ventilation mode,oxygen concentration%,The oxygen flow rate:L/min,);5. Invasive ventilator oxygen supply(Ventilation mode,oxygen concentration%,The oxygen flow rate:L/min,)
Measure: The differences in oxygen intake methods Time: up to 30 daysDescription: days
Measure: Time of hospitalization (days) Time: up to 30 daysDescription: days
Measure: Time of hospitalization in intensive care units Time: up to 30 daysDescription: forced expiratory volume at one second ,maximum voluntary ventilation at 1month,2month,3month after discharge
Measure: Pulmonary function Time: up to 3 months after dischargePassive immunotherapy through plasma infusion of convalescent subjects - convalescent plasma - or "hyperimmune" plasma was one of the most widespread and effective anti-infective treatments in the pre-antibiotic era and one of the founding pillars of immunology, and has also been used during the SARS (2002-2003) and Ebola (2014-2016) viral epidemy for which there were no alternative immunoprophylactic or therapeutic interventions. To date, there are not proven etiological therapies for SARS-CoV-2 infection, the agent responsible for the disease called Covid-19. Among those subjected to clinical studies during the current epidemic in China, hyperimmune plasma appears to be one of the most rational and promising. The objective of this study will be to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the hyperimmune plasma administered add-on to the anti-Covid-19 treatment (standard therapy) according to clinical practice in patients with severe Covid-19 infection, compared to patients with severe Covid-19 infection treated only with standard therapy.
Description: Statistically significant reduction (P <0.05) of mortality in the group of patients treated with hyperimmune plasma vs patients treated with standard therapy.
Measure: decrease in mortality Time: 30 daysDescription: Statistically significant increase (P <0.05) of lymphocyte levels after 7 and 14 days after the start of treatment with hyperimmune plasma (treated group), compared to the control group.
Measure: lymphocytes Time: 7 and 14 daysDescription: Statistically significant reduction (P <0.05) of plasma levels of reactive protein C (expressed as mg/L), 7 and 14 days after the start of treatment with hyperimmune plasma vs standard therapy (group control)
Measure: PCR levels vs control Time: 7 and 14 daysDescription: Statistically significant reduction (P <0.05) of plasma levels of reactive protein C (expressed as mg/L), 7 and 14 days after the start of treatment with hyperimmune plasma vs the same patients before the beginning of the treatment
Measure: PCR levels vs before treatment Time: 7 and 14 daysDescription: Significant Correlation (P<0.05) between hyperimmune plasma antibody levels and clinical improvement time (expressed in days)
Measure: AB levels and clinical improvement Time: 30 daysDescription: Statistically significant reduction (P <0.05) of plasma levels of IL-6 (expressed as pg/mL) and TNF-alpha (expressed as pg/mL), 7 and 14 days after the start of treatment with hyperimmune plasma vs standard therapy (group control)
Measure: Inflammatory cytokines vs controls Time: 7 and 14 daysDescription: Statistically significant reduction (P <0.05) of plasma levels of IL-6 (expressed as pg/mL) and TNF-alpha (expressed as pg/mL), 7 and 14 days after the start of treatment with hyperimmune plasma vs the same patients before the beginning of the treatment
Measure: Inflammatory cytokines vs before treatment Time: 7 and 14 days
