简要总结
The primary objective of this study is to determine the safety and efficacy profile of the food supplement (KUNAMIN®) containing grape juice, seed, stem, and bark given to patients treated with the established treatment regimen against novel coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19) via comparing Kunamin® group versus control group in a clinical trial.
In this study, both the therapeutic effect and the safety of the Kunamin® product has been evaluated. The study has been conducted on COVID-19 infected patients. Within the scope of the study, Covid-19 patients consisting of male and female patients are examined to evaluate the therapeutic effect.
COVID-19 infected patients are divided into 2 groups and the treatment group received grape food supplements for 15 days in addition to their standard treatment. The other group received only standard therapy. The effects of supplements containing grape products on the COVID-19 infection process of patients are investigated, as indicated in the primary, secondary, and tertiary endpoints. For this purpose, both the observation of routine examination findings and the effectiveness of food supplements on viral load and antibody levels are investigated. In the follow-up that continues for 30 days, COVID-19 Rapid Antigen test made in USA approved by FDA is used to monitor the efficacy of Kunamin® as patient treated by Kunamin® viral load is diminished either after 5 days, 10 days or 15 days, COVID-19 Rapid Antibody test made in USA approved by FDA has been used to monitor the development of IgM and IgG antibodies on day 0, day 5th, day 10th, day 15th and day 30th in addition to PCR test of Perkinelmer by Kayseri hospital. In conjunction, the sponsor used AIT Laboratories A HealthTrackRx Company PCR test CLIA and FDA approved for not only COVID-19 but also 27 kinds of cold and flu viruses and 90 different kinds of bacteria.
The number of patients planned for randomization was 240, however due to dropouts the hospital was able to screen 132 patients. Out of 132 patients we were able to enroll randomized total of 71 patients, 47 patients in the research arm and 24 in the control arm.
详细描述
We conducted a medical observation from December 2019 when there were no cases and no deaths in America, and just the revelation of this new disease in China. There is still no cure for COVID-19, a very contagious disease that has a tendency to destroy the immune system and has caused many mysterious complications while vaccination is a long-term strategy.
The complete study involved 100 outpatients from January 2020 to February 2021 who attended our clinic with flu, cold and respiratory symptoms, studied with a panel of 27 viruses and 90 bacteria which has been considered as phase 1 and phase 2 clinical trial for Kunamin® in the United States of America.
The sponsor also contracted with CRO APRON in Turkey to conduct the third phase clinical trial for Kunamin® for COVID-19 inpatients in Kayseri City Hospital. The number of patients planned for randomization was 240, however due to dropouts, we were able to screen 132 patients. Out of these 132 patients, we enrolled a total of 71 patients and randomized 47 patients in the research arm and 24 in the control arm.
The median age for COVID-19 positive patients is 39.6 years old (range of 18-64 years). Forty (56%) are female and 31 (44%) are male. The demographics include all Caucasians.
3 (4%) out of 71 patients after 40 capsules of Kunamin® were admitted into ICU and intubated, 100% survived.
