What is being measured

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

  1. Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Shedding of SARS-CoV-2 Virus

    AUC of shedding of SARS-CoV-2 virus calculated using the reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) measures of viral load from self-collected nasal swabs on days 1-10. AUC was defined by a single participant's cycle threshold (Ct) from nasal swabs collected and calculated by the trapezoidal rule, using exact times of collection of each swab. Ct denotes how many PCR cycles are required before the SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA reached a detectable level. Higher Ct values correspond to lower viral copy numbers. For reference, Ct values of 20 correspond to ~2.12 x 106 viral copies per milliliter, while a Ct value of 40 is undetectable and is considered the lower limit of detection of this RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: Days 1-10

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. AUC of Shedding of SARS-CoV-2 Virus

    AUC of shedding of SARS-CoV-2 virus calculated using the RT-PCR measures of viral load from self-collected nasal swabs on days 1-10, 14, 21, and 28. AUC was defined by a single participant's Ct from nasal swabs collected and calculated by the trapezoidal rule, using exact times of collection of each swab. Ct denotes how many PCR cycles are required before the SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA reached a detectable level. Higher Ct values correspond to lower viral copy numbers. For reference, Ct values of 20 correspond to ~2.12 x 106 viral copies per milliliter, while a Ct value of 40 is undetectable and is considered the lower limit of detection of this RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: Days 1-10, 14, 21, and 28

  2. Time Until Cessation of Shedding of SARS-CoV-2 Virus

    This outcome is defined as the time in days from randomization to the first negative RT-PCR result of self-collected nasal swabs that is followed by only negative results (i.e. no later positive results are observed).

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  3. Clinical Worsening of COVID-19 Disease in Symptomatic Patients

    Number of symptomatic patients with clinical worsening, defined as the development of respiratory distress or symptoms that require hospitalization.

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  4. Time Until Resolution of Symptoms

    This outcome is defined as absence of moderate or severe symptoms for at least 24 hours for those reporting moderate or severe symptoms at baseline.

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  5. Development of Antibodies to SARS-CoV-2

    Number of patients that develop antibodies to SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  6. Drug Level on Day Five, One Hour After a Dose Taken on an Empty Stomach

    Measured: Day 5, 1 hour post dose

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Camostat Mesilate in people with Covid19, run by Stanford University at 1 site in United States.

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 6 inclusion and 12 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 10 Jun 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 10 Jun 2022). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Shedding of SARS-CoV-2 Virus (time frame: Days 1-10). 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 10 Jun 2022.
