Study of the Use of the Ingaron in Volunteers for the Prevention of COVID-19

May 20, 2022 updated by: SPP Pharmaclon Ltd.

Prospective Open Controlled Non-interventional Study of the Use of the Drug Ingaron (Interferon Gamma Human Recombinant, NPP Farmaklon LLC, Russia) in Volunteers for the Prevention of Coronavirus Infection COVID-19

The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of the prophylactic use of Ingaron (INN: recombinant interferon gamma human, lyophilisate for solution for intranasal administration 100,000 IU) in the regimen of 3 drops in each nasal passage intranasally every other day for 10 days with a break of 7 days (2 10-day cycles) in volunteers.

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

Distribution between groups is made randomly at the request of the participant. According to the methodology approved by the observational program, the participant must use or not use the investigational drug (depending on the distribution group and their own will) during the 27 days of the prophylaxis course (10 days + 7 days + 10 days). The control group does not receive study therapy.

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

21 years to 62 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
Incidence rate
Time Frame: Day 35
The incidence rate of COVID-19 volunteers when using the drug Ingaron (INN: interferon gamma human recombinant, lyophilisate for solution for intranasal administration 100,000 IU) in the regimen of 3 drops in each nasal passage intranasally every other day for 10 days with a break of 7 days ( 2 10-day cycles) vs control group
Day 35

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
Frequency of laboratory confirmation of COVID-19 disease
Time Frame: Day 35
