Ventura, CA-based Topelia Therapeutics selected InfoBionic as its partner in EKG pre-screening and continuous remote cardiac monitoring services for patients enrolled in their NIH-approved clinical trial Quintuple therapy to treat COVID-19 Infection (HAZDpaC).

This Phase II interventional study will test the efficacy of quintuple therapy (Hydroxychloroquine, Azithromycin, Vitamin C, Vitamin D, and Zinc) for the treatment of patients who test positive for the COVID-19 virus. This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. Individuals included in the clinical trial are treated with this quintuple therapy for 10-days. The study will last 24-weeks with up to 600 participants. Topelia Therapeutics is actively recruiting patients for this study. Visit https:/topeliatherapeutics.com/clinical-trials.

Dr. Sabine Hazan, the clinical trial Principal Investigator stated, "Patient safety is paramount in all our protocols. Our team understands the importance of the initial EKG screening and continuous remote cardiac monitoring for patients on the prescribed therapy." Further, "Partnering with InfoBionic was made easier when in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, InfoBionic released a new set of features designed specifically to help in monitoring and diagnosing QT prolongation."

Dr. Hazan has spent more than 2 decades working with the FDA and NIH to bring medicine to new frontiers, she believes there will always be a place for pharmaceutical clinical trials, and hopes to demonstrate that effective, low-cost solutions are available to treat some of today's most challenging medical conditions.

Cardiology medical expert Dr. Alon Steinberg, the designated Safety and Medical Monitoring physician supporting the trial, was already familiar with the solution and stated, "InfoBionic meets our needs; the device is easy for the patients to use and the advanced full disclosure monitoring and reporting functions ensure patient safety, making this trial and partnership a success."

Dave MacCutcheon, InfoBionic COO, remarked, "We are excited to be working with the Topelia Therapeutics team on COVID-19 solutions. This trial complements our ReMoteMeTM program that delivers EKG devices directly to patients' homes, as many are still unable to visit their doctors' offices due to current quarantine restrictions."

Topelia Therapeutics and InfoBionic are committed to providing comprehensive, safe, and innovative solutions that further improve the lives of all people during this unprecedented time.
