简要总结
This study is a randomized, open-label, parallel groups multi-centered trial were participants are assigned to either an intervention arm ( a combination of Favipiravir and Hydroxychloroquin) or standard of care.
详细描述
In this trial, the investigators want to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of Favipiravir and Hydroxychloroquine as potential therapy for moderate and severe cases with COVID -19. Favipiravir which is a new type of RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) inhibitor has activity against influenza virus, and Hydroxychloroquine, an analogue of chloroquine, has a clinical safety profile better than that of chloroquine and allows higher daily dose, Chloroquine is a widely used antimalarial that was found to be a potential broad-spectrum antiviral.
There is an urgent need to explore therapeutic options for SARS-CoV-2 in order to face the pandemic. The selected combination was based on limited evidence clinically and in vitro on the efficacy of the Favipiravir and Hydroxychloroquine in SARS-CoV-2. The two medications were listed in many guidelines as treatment options and ongoing trials assessing their efficacy and safety. Thus, the investigators want to prove the effectiveness of the combination as therapy.
