- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Main Objective: Identify the most suitable therapeutic scheme to reduce the risk of disease progression towards respiratory failure in paucisymptomatic patients affected by SARS-CoV-2 infection treated at home;Secondary Objective: • Assess the frequency of hospitalizations in the 3 treatment arms<br>• Evaluate the frequency of nasopharyngeal swab positive patients at the end of the experimental treatment in the 3 treatment arms<br>• Compare safety and tolerability associated with therapeutic regimens proposed in paucisymptomatic patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection treated at home; for patients on treatment with heparins, evaluate the onset of vascular disorders;Primary end point(s): Percentage of patients with worsening of disease symptoms and signs 5-10 (±2) days after initiation of therapy (baseline), i.e. transition from mild to moderate or severe or critical disease, or from moderate to severe disease criticism.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 5 and 10 (±2) days
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Secondary end point(s): •Percentage of patients hospitalized within 5 and 10 (±2) days of the start of therapy (baseline) in the 3 treatment arms; •Percentage of patients positive for nasopharyngeal swab at 10 (± 2) days from the start of treatment; •Grade 2-5 treatment-related adverse events (moderate, severe, very severe related events and deaths), serious adverse events or treatment discontinuation due to toxicity in the 3 treatment arms (safety and tolerability);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 5 and 10 (±2) days; 10 (±2) days; 15 days
