APR-AOS2020 as mention trial completion est July 31st (possible PR catalyst) Human clinical studies as well as in vitro and in vivo safety tests have demonstrated that APR-AOS2020 has a very good safety profile on various human tissues with a cytotoxicity index of up to 20 times lower than other marketed antimicrobial solutions. ————
"Based on these encouraging data, we have designed a pivotal, monocentric, randomized, controlled clinical study to assess whether the spray solution, used to irrigate, hydrate and cleanse nasal mucosa for three or five times a day at regular intervals, is safe and effective in patients positive to SARS-CoV-2 with mild symptoms, in addition to the standard therapies, to reduce the nasal viral load – says Professor Giancarlo Icardi, Director of the Hygiene Unit of the IRCCS Policlinico San Martino Hospital in Genoa, lead investigator – Reducing the viral load in the nose, thanks to either the mechanical cleansing mechanism combined with the antimicrobial efficacy of the HCLO, could prevent the insurgence of more severe symptoms and improve the course of the disease in its initial phase, reducing also the risk of spreading the infections to other individuals. If SARS-CoV-2 viral load in the upper respiratory airways is lower, it is likely that the probability of the virus to enter the lower airways damaging lungs is reduced. The nasal spray, when used in the initial phase of infection or after exposure to risk of infection, could reduce the probability of becoming infected, the worsening of symptoms and the spread of the infection to other individuals". —————
"We believe that this innovative device, which is designed to be affordable and easy to use, could represent an additional near-term protective option that could be particularly helpful in high-risk environments such as public transportation, shops, schools and other crowded, closed spaces", says Paolo Galfetti, CEO of APR. "The initiation of this controlled, randomized clinical trial gets us closer to the objective of making this product available before year end specifically for use against COVID-19." ~ smartest man alive, from Y@h00 RLFTF finance conversations
