Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

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

Prolonged viral shedding is commonly observed in immunocompromised patients infected by SARS-CoV-2. Until now, there is no successful clinical trial or guideline to guide optimal treatment for this clinical condition. Here, we aimed to establish a clinical trial with combination of prolonged remdesivir infusion with nirmatrelvir/ritonavir among COVID-19 patients recently receiving b-cell depletion therapy, to evaluate to clinical outcomes.

Study Type

Enrollment (Estimated)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

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

  • Adult
  • Older Adult

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age ≥ 18 years
  • Receive B-cell depletion therapy or bendamustine within 6months
  • Laboratory confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection
  • Symptoms onset within 72 hours
  • NIAID ordinal score 0-5 upon enrollment

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Prior use of any anti-SARS-CoV-2 agents within 2 weeks. Remdesivir or NMV/r initiated within 24 hours is acceptable
  • Life expectancy < 1 month
  • Previous adverse effect related to remdesivir or NMV/r
  • Concurrent use medicine with drug-drug interaction with NMV/r
  • Patients receiving intubation and mechanical ventilation
  • eGFR < 30
  • Child pugh score Class C
  • Any other condition that in the opinion of the investigator would jeopardize the safety or rights of a subject participating in the trial or would render the subject unable to comply with the protocol.

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
The proportion of SARS-CoV-2 CT > 30 on Day 14
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 14.
The proportion of SARS-CoV-2 CT > 30 on Day 14 of each group.
From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 14.

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
The proportion of mortality or respiratory failure requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation.
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 28.
The proportion of mortality or respiratory failure requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation within 28 days after antiviral agent initiation of each group.
From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 28.
The proportion of patients developing anti-viral treatment emerging adverse events.
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 28.
The proportion of patients developing anti-viral treatment emerging adverse events.
From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 28.
The proportion of secondary bacterial or fungal infection of each group.
Time Frame: From enrollment to the end of treatment on Day 28.
The proportion of secondary bacterial or fungal infection of each group.

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
