RE: COPD exacerbation caused by Covid-1925 Aug 2021 23:30
Matterhorn - The company only paused the COPD trial becuase it was deemed inappropriate to put the pool of trialists in harms way by bringing them into hopsital for checks when we had a deadly virus on the loose and they would be particualrly vulnerable to it.
The company stated themselves that if one of the pool of patients had contracted covid they would have been eligable for the trial.
So in short if we recieve approval for Covid this is likely to cover anyone over the age of 18, exlcuding pregnant woman, and immuno comprimised cancer patients.
Further trials or (time in use) would be required for children, prem babies, Pregnant woman and cancer patients undergoing treatment.
All of which are likely to benefit hugely from this treatment IMO.
