About this study

Official title: Studying the Efficiency of the Natural Preparation Rutan in Children in the Treatment of COVID-19, Acute Respiratory Viral Infections, and Developing Treatment Protocols

Clinical research includes Determination of efficacy and acceptability of the local medicine "Rutan tablets 0,025" in children and teenagers 6-18 years old with COVID-19 and/or acute respiratory viral infections. And also the purpose of the study was to study clinical and laboratory changes when using Rutan in patients with Covid 19 clinical methods such as collection of anamnesis, dynamic examination of patients, catamnestic observation - a telephone survey, as well as biochemical, immunological, virologic PCR and ELISA tests.

Read the detailed description

This study is a randomized, open-label, controlled trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of a novel therapeutic agent, Rutan 25 mg, in hospitalized child patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The study will be a series of comparisons with two groups. The main group will receive the drug "Rutan 25 mg". The control group will not be given the study drug. There will be continuous monitoring to stop the study due to futility, efficacy or safety. Because of the likelihood that the baseline standards for maintenance therapy may evolve/improve over time, safety and efficacy comparisons will adapt.

Randomization will be based on: Card system (the patient will be asked to choose one of two cards with the same drawings on the visible side, and after choosing, when turning over the cards, it will be determined which group the patient will be included) Patients of the main group (210 patients) will be prescribed Rutan 25 mg tablets, along with the therapy recommended at the time of the study. The course of treatment will be - on the first day, 1 tablet 2 times a day. The duration of the course of treatment is 10 days, with good tolerability of the drug.

The comparison group (100 patients) will receive the current recommended treatment at the time of the study without the use of investigational medicine.

Screening failures are defined by participants who agreed to participate in a clinical trial but were not subsequently randomized to participate in the study. A minimum set of information about monitoring failures is required to ensure transparent reporting, compliance with the publication of the Consolidated Reporting Standards (CONSORT), and responses to regulatory requests. The minimum information includes demographics, monitoring failure details, eligibility criteria, and any serious adverse events (SAEs).

Discontinuation of participation/withdrawal of a participant means termination of participation in the study, and the remaining study procedures must be interrupted and replaced by another participant, as indicated in the study protocol. Any clinically significant changes in the patient's condition and/or laboratory values will be reported as an adverse event (AE) by the investigator. The researcher has the right to make changes or terminate the study.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Effectivness of therapy

    To evaluate the effectiveness of therapy, a PCR study will be carried out. To determine the severity of the inflammatory syndrome, CRP (C-reactive protein), procalcitonin, ferritin, IL-6, general laboratory tests and general clinical indicators will be determined.

    Measured: twice a day for 10 days

A Phase 2 study testing Rutan 25 mg in people with COVID-19 Respiratory Infection, run by Research Institute of Virology, Ministry of Health of the Republic of Uzbekistan at 1 site in Uzbekistan.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Uzbekistan. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Effectivness of therapy (time frame: twice a day for 10 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05862883, which also lists 4 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 May 2023.
