About this study
In plain language
This study looks at how drugs given as part of usual care act in the bodies of children and young adults under age 21. It aims to help find the safest and most effective doses for children. People may qualify if they take a study drug or recently tested positive for the virus that causes COVID-19.
The study investigators are interested in learning more about how drugs, that are given to children by their health care provider, act in the bodies of children and young adults in hopes to find the most safe and effective dose for children. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the PK of understudied drugs currently being administered to children per SOC as prescribed by their treating provider.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
