Several studies have suggested a "cytokine storm" caused by the release of IL-6, IL-1, IL-12 and IL-18 with tumor necrosis factor TNF alpha and other inflammatory mediators. Increased inflammatory response of lung tissue may result in increased gas exchange at the alveolar-capillary level making oxygenation difficult in patients with more severe forms of the disease and the need for mechanical ventilation. In this regard, it is hypothesized that the use of immunomodulatory therapy should have an effect in reducing the lethal outcome, the need for oxygen therapy, and mechanical ventilation.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients with laboratory-confirmed (PCR) COVID-19 infection\n* Patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infection\n* Hospitalized patients on clinical centers and cantonal hospitals\n* Patients with radiology-confirmed pneumonia within the clinical condition of COVID-19 infection including pulmonary opacity\n* Patients with a clinical indication for pneumonia: increased body temperature (defined as a value above ≥ 36.6⁰C axillary route, ≥ 37.2°C oral route or ≥ 37.8 °C rectal route), and/or dyspnea, and/or cough, and/or SpO2 \\<96%\n* Patients aged above 18, both genders\n* Patients able and willing to understand the study, adhere to all study procedures and sign a written Informed Consent Form (ICF) prior to entering the study or with the assistance of the witness\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Patients not COVID-19 positive\n* Patients with mild COVID-19 infection\n* Patients who are study subjects in another clinical study for another investigational agent for COVID-19\n* Patients with malignant hypertension\n* Patients with malignant disease and who are treated for malignant diseases in the last 5 years\n* Patients with severe liver and kidney insufficiency\n* Patients who are receiving therapy with an immunomodulatory or immunosuppressive agent\n* Patients aged below 18, female patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding\n* Known allergy to study drug or any component thereof\n* Use of haloperidol, dopamine antagonists, or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, except paracetamol.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04374032', 'briefTitle': 'Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of an Immunomodulatory Therapy for the Treatment of Patients With Moderate to Severe COVID-19 Infection', 'organization': {'class': 'INDUSTRY', 'fullName': 'Bosnalijek D.D'}, 'officialTitle': 'An Open-label, Prospective, Randomized, Comparative Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ENKORTEN® as an Immunomodulatory Therapy, Within the Usual Therapeutically Established Protocol, for the Treatment of Patients With Moderate to Severe COVID-19 Infection', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'EN-COVCS-01'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'ENKORTEN', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: metenkefalin + tridecactide']}, {'type': 'OTHER', 'label': 'The standard of care treatment', 'description': 'The usual therapeutically established protocol for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infection', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: The standard of care']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'metenkefalin + tridecactide', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'ENKORTEN® 5 mg + 1 mg Lyophilisate for Solution for Injection', 'armGroupLabels': ['ENKORTEN']}, {'name': 'The standard of care', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'The usual therapeutically established protocol, for the treatment of patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 infection prescribed by The Agency for medicinal products and medical devices of Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'armGroupLabels': ['The standard of care treatment']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '71000', 'city': 'Sarajevo', 'state': 'Sarajevo Canton', 'country': 'Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'facility': 'Clinical Center University of Sarajevo', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 43.84864, 'lon': 18.35644}}, {'zip': '78000', 'city': 'Banja Luka', 'country': 'Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'facility': 'University Clinical Centre of the Republic of Srpska', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 44.77879, 'lon': 17.20629}}, {'zip': '88000', 'city': 'Mostar', 'country': 'Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'facility': 'University Clinical Hospital Mostar', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 43.34333, 'lon': 17.80806}}, {'zip': '72270', 'city': 'Travnik', 'country': 'Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'facility': 'Hospital Travnik', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 44.22637, 'lon': 17.66583}}, {'zip': '72000', 'city': 'Zenica', 'country': 'Bosnia and Herzegovina', 'facility': 'Cantonal Hospital Zenica', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 44.20169, 'lon': 17.90397}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'Rusmir Baljić, PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Clinical Center University of Sarajevo'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'UNDECIDED'}, 'sponsorCollaboratorsModule': {'leadSponsor': {'name': 'Bosnalijek D.D', 'class': 'INDUSTRY'}, 'responsibleParty': {'type': 'SPONSOR'}}}}
