This is a phase I randomized, placebo-controlled, single site to assess the local and systemic safety of intranasal Q-Griffithsin (Q-GRFT) after 14 doses in approximately 45 adult participants. Participants will be randomized 2:1 (Q-GRFT nasal spray: placebo nasal spray) resulting in 30 participants enrolled into the Q-GRFT arm and 15 participants enrolled into the placebo arm. A clinician will apply two metered doses of Q-GRFT in each nostril (400μl total) of the participant on the day of enrollment. Participants will be monitored in the clinic for 1 hour after administration and return for a 24-hour post dose visit. If safe and acceptable, a second period of daily administration by the participant for 13 days will commence. Safety assessments will be performed at day 7, day 14, and day 28 visits after the initiation of the second period. The expected duration of study participation for each participant will be approximately 6-8 weeks. The primary endpoint is the proportion of participants who experience a related Grade 2 or higher adverse event. Secondary and exploratory endpoints include persistence and systemic absorption of Q-GRFT, acceptability and the impact of Q-GRFT nasal spray on smell.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant morbidity and mortality across the world. Effective vaccines are now available but underutilized. In July 2021, Ascension Health implemented a mandate requiring all employees to obtain the COVID-19 vaccine by November 12th. In August 2021, the number of COVID-19 cases in the US increased rapidly, specifically in states with lower vaccination rates, many of which are served by Ascension Health facilities. In this study, we will evaluate a rapidly deployed health system initiative to use text messaging to nudge Ascension employees who have not yet been vaccinated to commit to a date and receive vaccination.

This C3 project, Community network-driven COVID-19 testing of vulnerable populations in the Central US, will implement and evaluate a COVID-19 testing and vaccination approach that combines an evidence-based Social Network Testing Strategy (SNS) with community developed COVID-19 public health messages (SNS+). C3 will engage two disenfranchised populations across rural and urban sites in states across the Central US (Texas (TX), Louisiana (LA), Arkansas (AR), Indiana (IN), Illinois (IL)). C3 leverages NIDA's Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN), the PIs' extensive community located COVID-19 testing programs, and a network of established community partnerships. The collaborative community-academic partnerships, research and engagement infrastructure, and team's leadership across JCOIN will ensure that C3 can rapidly recruit, enroll and test most disenfranchised community members, (n=2400) and through this process, accelerate any forthcoming COVID-19 public health prevention interventions. C3 focuses on two communities most impacted by COVID-19: 1) Criminal justice involved (CJI) - non-incarcerated people with previous history of arrest/jail/prison, probation/parole, drug-court attendance, witnessed or experienced a negative interaction with police or law enforcement; and 2) Low-income Latinx - community members at 250% or below Federal Poverty Level. Both of these diverse populations, and the overlap between them, have some of the highest rates of COVID-19 infection and death in the United States. Messaging that affirms individual agency and corrects misinformation, combined with accessible and acceptable testing, is required to accelerate COVID-19 prevention for these populations.Using a two-arm randomized controlled trial design, participants will be enrolled into the Social Network testing Strategy (SNS) arm (involves social networking referrals only) or the Social Network testing Strategy with COVID-19 prevention messages (SNS+) messaging arm. The latter includes affirmation/misinformation correction messaging (discussion tools and coaching). SNS and SNS+messaging arms will both include an initial group of index study participants who will refer their network members into the study and the process will repeat itself one more time for a total of 3 waves. Indexes will refer network members (1st degree) and then those network members will refer one more round (2nd degree).

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and in infected patients, it produces symptoms which range from completely asymptomatic to those expressing severe illness. Early recognition of those developing severe manifestations allows for rapid and appropriate intervention, including admission to intensive care unit and intensive care therapy, such as mechanical ventilation. A current problem is that only limited data exist predicting the clinical course of COVID-19. This study will determine whether non-invasive urinalysis is useful in assessing and predicting the severity or clinical course of patients with COVID-19.

This study is a prospective, randomized clinical trial. During this study, participants will be randomly assigned to receive quadrivalent inactivated influenza vaccine (IIV4) and mRNA COVID-19 vaccine either simultaneously or sequentially, 7-14 days apart. Persons in the simultaneous group will receive mRNA COVID-19 and IIV4 at Visit 1 (Day 1) and a saline placebo injection at Visit 2. Persons in the sequential group will receive mRNA COVID-19 vaccine and a saline placebo at Visit 1 (Day 1) and IIV4 injection at Visit 2. For participants receiving their primary dose series, a second dose of mRNA COVID-19 vaccine will be administered either 3 to 8 weeks or 4 to 8 weeks following the first dose, depending upon the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine provided. For those receiving a booster dose of mRNA COVID-19 only a single mRNA COVID-19 will be received in this study. Solicited symptoms of reactogenicity and adverse events will be assessed on vaccination day and daily during the 7 days following each Vaccination Visit using either electronic or paper symptoms diaries, depending on study participant preference. Quality of life data will be collected using electronic or paper diaries on day of Vaccination Visit 1 and daily during the 7 days following the visit. Serious adverse events and adverse events of special interest will be collected throughout the duration of the study. Participants are followed through Day 121. Serum samples from participants will be collected for determination of SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity at baseline. Serum samples will be taken throughout the study to determine IIV4 and COVID-19 vaccine immunogenicity and for potential future studies.
