Chiayi CityAges Any age - NCT04510025Recruiting
MRI study of whole-body effects of moderate to severe COVID
This study looks at how COVID-19 affects multiple organs in the body, using MRI scans and related measurements. It may help researchers better understand who is at risk for longer-lasting or widespread effects after COVID.
OxfordAges 18–100 - NCT06631287RecruitingPhase 3
Testing baricitinib for persistent long COVID symptoms
This trial tests whether the anti-inflammatory drug baricitinib can improve persistent long COVID symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, and shortness of breath. You may qualify if you had COVID-19 at least 6 months ago and still have bothersome symptoms that affect your daily life.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05868239Recruiting
Testing an aerosol box during CPR emergencies
This study tests whether using an aerosol “box” during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) during an emergency improves safety and care. It’s mainly aimed at trained healthcare staff who can perform required tasks during CPR.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–60 - NCT06099795Recruiting
Breath test vs. swab test for COVID-19
This study checks if a new breath test (eBAM-CoV) can accurately detect COVID-19 compared to the usual nose/throat swab test (RT-PCR). If you have symptoms or were exposed and are getting tested anyway, you may be able to help by also providing a breath sample.
NîmesAges 18 years+ - NCT05656105RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET scan study of brain inflammation after COVID
This early-phase study uses a special PET scan to look for signs of brain inflammation in people with ongoing (long-term) nervous system symptoms after COVID-19. It may help researchers understand what is driving symptoms and whether this imaging approach can detect inflammation.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–65 - NCT05188612Recruiting
Hospital patients with confirmed COVID-19 survey study
This study collects information from adults who are in the hospital for confirmed COVID-19. The goal is to better understand what happens during acute (early) COVID-19 and improve care.
Bologna, BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05164744Recruiting
MRI study of heart tissue changes after COVID-19
This study uses a heart MRI to look for leftover (healing) changes in heart tissue after COVID-19. It may help researchers better understand what ongoing heart effects can happen after infection.
Brooklyn, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05141058RecruitingPhase 1
T cell therapy to help prevent COVID-19 after transplant
This Phase 1 trial tests a donated immune-cell treatment (T cells) to help immunocompromised people fight or resist COVID-19 after they recently received a bone marrow or stem cell transplant. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and if it helps the body respond better to the virus.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 2–80 - NCT04772170Recruiting
Study wearable and symptom monitoring during respiratory virus challenges
This observational study looks for digital health patterns during studies where people are intentionally exposed to a respiratory virus. If you join a respiratory virus challenge at NIH, you may help researchers discover better ways to monitor and understand illness using wearable devices and shared health data.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–65 - NCT04429594Recruiting
Study tracking COVID-19 infection rates in the public
This study looks at how often SARS-CoV-2 (the virus that causes COVID-19) infection happens in people who may have been exposed in the community. It may help researchers understand infection rates and patterns in the general population.
NiceAges 18 years+ - NCT04326426Enrolling by invitationPhase 3
Study of tradipitant for severe or critical COVID-19
This trial tests whether tradipitant can improve outcomes for adults with severe or critical COVID-19, including pneumonia and low oxygen. It may help patients whose lungs are significantly affected and who need careful hospital-level care.
