Feasibility Study of Amantadine for Cognitive Dysfunction in Patients With Long-Covid: A Pilot Randomized Control Trial
Purpose: To decrease symptom burden, improve cognitive function, improve endurance, and decrease fatigue in subjects with post-acute sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) or "long-hauler" COVID using amantadine. If amantadine use is determined to be efficacious in this population, the findings of this study will be used towards a subsequent randomized control trial.
Multicenter, Double-blind, Randomized, Placebo Controlled, Study to Assess the Safety of Amantadine Hydrochloride (HCl) Intravenous (IV) Solution (MR-301), in Patients With Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI).
The main goal of this clinical trial is to check if the treatment is safe and well-tolerated. Researchers will compare the MR-301 active drug group with the placebo group to evaluate the safety and tolerability of the drug. Other measurements include assessing the patient's overall outcome, neurological responses, time spent in the intensive care unit, time in the hospital, and mortality. Participants will receive either MR-301 BID IV dosing or a matching placebo for a total of 3 weeks.
Amantadine Therapy for Cognitive Impairment Related to Post-COVID Condition
This study will look at the effects of amantadine on cognitive function in persons with Long COVID. It will also collect specimens to study possible causes of cognitive symptoms in Long COVID, and whether any lab tests can predict who will respond better to amantadine.
