Effect of Prolectin-M; a (1-6)-Alpha-D-Mannopyranose on SarsCoV2 Viral Copy Numbers: A Proof of Concept, Open Label Randomized Controlled Trial

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

SarsCoV2 has infected over 20 million people worldwide. The virus has a unique protein structure enabling it to rapidly infect and spread among the population. COVID19 is a global health emergency and has affected lives of all people irrespective of being infected. There are no proven therapies and a vaccine is yet to be approved for wide public usage.

Our study aims to test a hypothesis of physically blocking the spike protein from infecting the human cells, thus promoting its rapid excretion from the infected person.

We will randomise 10 subjects in this proof of concept trial and test the hypothesis by measuring the effect of Prolectin-M; a (1-6)-alpha-D-Mannopyranose in reducing the viral copy numbers over 5 days of treatment. The absolute copy numbers will be measured on digital droplet PCR developed by BioRad. A fall in copy numbers by 2-fold from baseline will be considered a positive treatment effect in this population. All standard care measures currently being practiced for these patients will be continued.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 45 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
SarsCoV2 viral copy number
Time Frame: 7 days from randomisation
Change in absolute viral copy number
7 days from randomisation

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
b. Disease progression will be measured on a 7-point scale at 28 days. A 2-point change will be considered disease progression.
Time Frame: 28 days from randomisation

7-point severity score (ordinal scale):

  1. Not hospitalized, no limitations on activities
  2. Not hospitalized, limitation on activities;
  3. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen;
  4. Hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen;
  5. Hospitalized, on non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen devices;
  6. Hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO);
  7. Death
28 days from randomisation
