Trial summary

We seek to study the behaviour of Coronavirus infection in patients with rheumatological and/or autoimmune comorbidities, understood as a particular pathophysiological universe with its own risks and eventual benefits, until now fully hypothetical to be confirmed by means of real and recent evidence.

About this study

Official title: Predictive Factors for COVID-19 in Rheumatology Study Based on Information Collected in The COVID-19 Global Rheumatology Alliance

We seek to study the behaviour of Coronavirus infection in patients with rheumatological and/or autoimmune comorbidities, understood as a particular pathophysiological universe with its own risks and eventual benefits, until now fully hypothetical to be confirmed by means of real and recent evidence. On March 12, 2020, an initiative called the Global Alliance for COVID-19 in Rheumatology (The COVID-19 Rheumatology Alliance) arises, as a rapid response of international coordination whose ultimate goal is to serve as help or guideline for all those doctors who seek be faced with receiving, evaluating, understanding and caring for a patient with rheumatological and / or autoimmune diseases in relation to the imminent risk of COVID-19.

Read the detailed description

Within this context, this study seeks to use the information registered by the Fundación Santa Fe de Bogotá University Hospital as a participating centre. It is intended, under a prospective cohort methodology, to identify, analyze and compare predictive factors of the clinical course of COVID-19 in patients with baseline diagnoses of rheumatological or autoimmune diseases with the intention of establishing well-founded parameters that contribute to the improvement in terms of strategies of prevention, management and prognosis; benefiting both directly treating physicians and patients, as well as indirectly a health system that is predicted to be pushed to the limit as time passes.

Being tested
Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
Medical subject headings
Rheumatic Diseases, COVID-19

What participants receive

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

  • Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)Drug

    Within a non-experimental setting, the routine disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs) prescription will be evaluated as the "exposure".

Study groups in NCT04567576
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
ExposedPatients with underlying rheumatological or autoimmune diseases who have a confirmed infection by 2019-nCoV (COVID-19) who at the time of diagnosis (of infection) receive pharmacological treatment with disease modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).
Receives: Drug: Disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs)
Un-exposedPatients with underlying rheumatological or autoimmune diseases who have a confirmed 2019-nCoV (COVID-19) infection who at the time of diagnosis (of infection) are not receiving pharmacological treatment with disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs).

What is being measured

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

  1. Clinical behavior of the disease // COVID-19

    It will be considered as 1. Severe, if it meets at least one of the following characteristics (based on what is registered in the main center's database):

    • If you were hospitalized: What was the highest level of care you required during the illness? →
    • Required invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
    • If the symptoms did not resolve and the patient was hospitalized: What is the highest level of care that has been required in the course of the present illness so far? o Required mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

    Measured: 1-12 weeks

  2. Mortality

    It will be considered as 1. Yes, if it meets at least one of the following characteristics (based on what is registered in the main center's database):

    • Has the patient died?
    • Yes, he passed away

    Measured: 1-12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Rheumatic Diseases and Covid19, run by Fundación Santa Fe de Bogota.

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 5 inclusion and 1 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Sep 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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.

Are results available for this study?

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?

Clinical behavior of the disease // COVID-19 (time frame: 1-12 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Sep 2020.
