Trial summary

To date, no treatment has demonstrated clinical efficacy on COVID 19. However, several therapeutic strategies are being considered and are being evaluated in numerous clinical trials. Among these strategies, the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) seems promising. Read more about this study

About this study

To date, no treatment has demonstrated clinical efficacy on COVID 19. However, several therapeutic strategies are being considered and are being evaluated in numerous clinical trials. Among these strategies, the use of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) seems promising. There is very little information on how to precisely administer hydroxychloroquine to patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 in intensive care, which may be responsible for side effects, some of which are potentially serious. In addition, this treatment has a long half-life which increases the risk of accumulation and therefore toxicity. In view of the lack of knowledge on the pharmacokinetic / pharmacodynamic properties of hydroxychloroquine in intensive care patients infected with SARS-CoV-2, we propose to perform a prospective multicenter cohort study in order to collect the biological data necessary for this evaluation.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)Drug

    Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) will be administered as usual practice: dosage is adjusted to maintain a concentration between 1 and 2 mg/L.

    Measure pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Pharmacokinetics of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)

    measured blood concentration by blood sample results.

    Measured: Up to day 21

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Correlation between hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) concentration and cardiac toxicity (QT interval)

    measured by blood sample and electrocardiogram results.

    Measured: Up to day 21

  2. Correlation between Pharmacokinetic (concentration) and pharmacodynamic (viral load) of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ)

    measured by blood sample

    Measured: Day 1, Day 3, Day 5, Day 7, Day 14, Day 21

  3. Pharmacokinetic model

    Pharmacokinetic (area under the curve) analysis will be performed using a population approach with a non-linear mixed effects model.

    Measured: Up to day 21

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) in people with Sars-CoV2, run by Centre Hospitalier Universitaire de Saint Etienne at 4 sites in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Stop of the study by competent authority (ANSM)). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Pharmacokinetics of hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) (time frame: Up to day 21). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 Sep 2020.
