Brief Summary
Modification(s)
|
The present clinical study is planned to show immunogenicity of Swamala, in clinical trial settings. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate immunogenicity in terms of improvement in immune markers and improvement in Quality of life after consuming Swamala daily for the study duration of 90 days. Healthy volunteers (fully vaccinated for COVID-19) will be screened and if found eligible, they will be enrolled in the study and randomized into 2 groups in ratio of 2:1 (20 participants in in Swamala Group and 10 in Control Group = Total 30 participants). One group (S) will be put on Swamala 10 gm twice daily, and the other group (C) will not be consuming the investigational product. Participants will be followed-up 6-weekly during the treatment period of 90 days, and telephonic reminders and enquiries will be done every 7 days to ensure compliance, enquire about any episodes of general illness or COVID-19 & absent days from work due to illness/es, and collect safety data, in terms of any adverse effects experienced by the participants. Compliance of at least 80% will be required for the participant to complete the study. Appropriate statistical tests will be applied to data generated through clinical trial to reach to conclusion.
