About this study

Official title: Prognostic Modification in Patients With COVID-19 Under Early Intervention Treatment at U.M.F 13 and U.M.F 20

The present study is designed for patients with mild COVID-19 phase, to demonstrate if there is a modification in the clinical evolution greater than or equal to 25% in their symptoms, implemented in two groups of patients under an early intervention treatment, a group ( A) will receive Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol and another group (B) will receive Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol followed for 14 days followed by video call

Read the detailed description

Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is caused by SARS-COV2 and represents the causative agent of a potential fatal disease generating a global public health problem. Person-to-person transmission of COVID-19 infection led to the isolation of patients who subsequently received a variety of treatments. Ivermectin treatment for safety is approved for human use by the FDA in parasitic and skin infections. Studies report the therapeutic safety of Ivermectin in humans with COVID-19, describing a 6.1-fold decrease in lethality compared to patients who did not use Ivermectin (1.4 vs. 8.5%, p <0.0001). In this sense, the WHO and PAHO encourage the use of unproven therapies in the context of a randomized clinical trial (RCT). Anticoagulants have reported up to 20% in the reduction of mortality (heparin), Ribaroxaban is effective with the inhibition of PAR1 / PAR2 / PAR4 receptors through the blocking of Factor Xa and the formation of thrombin, having anti-inflammatory effects, decreasing arteriosclerosis and platelet aggregation. There is a Telemedicine working method implemented by the OOAD of the North Federal District, which detects early signs and symptoms of possible complications and offers an early intervention treatment policy for first-level care beneficiaries. Under this method, a quasi-experimental study showed that there is a modification in the frequency of recovered patients of 80-90% in patients diagnosed with COVID-19 after an early intervention treatment with paracetamol, Ivermectin, Azithromycin, Ribaroxaban in patients with COVID -19 from UMF 13 during the period of July-August 2020. Therefore, it is necessary to carry out a randomized clinical trial to confirm this assertion.

Objective: To evaluate the percentage of patients with a diagnosis of COVID-19 who modify their clinical evolution under a comparative treatment of early intervention in beneficiaries of the U.M.F 13 and U.M.F 20 of the I.M.S.S., during the period of December 2020-January 2021.

Material and Methods: A randomized, single-blind, prospective, longitudinal and open experimental study in 62 patients with COVID-19 from UMF No. 13 and No. 20 from November to December 2020. Including 31 patients in group A (Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol) and 31 patients in group B (Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol). With inclusion criteria over 18 years of age, have type 2 diabetes mellitus, Systemic Arterial Hypertension, Obesity or overweight, PCR confirmation of COVID-19. For the video call, the Family Medicine Units have Electronic Equipment Installation for Internet use. Exclusion criteria are patients with severe COVID-19 (they deserve immediate referral to second level of care, hospital). Elimination criteria are Prior informed consent, medication is given randomly to a COVID-19 patient, a follow-up video call will be made at home for 14 days, recording sex, age, education, date of disease onset, taking laboratories (hematic biometry, C-reactive protein, D-dimer, Ferritin, prothrombin time, thromboplastin time, lactic dehydrogenase) taken at the onset of the disease, taking as an outcome variable the modification of the clinical course (clinical symptoms such as headache, cough, fever, conjunctivitis , myalgias, arthralgias, rhinorrhea, odynophagia, anosmia, chest pain, dyspnea) when granting treatment in groups A and B.. Statistical differences will be evaluated using the Mann-Whitney U test with a power of 90% and a type I error rate of 1% for the variable of modification of the clinical course in treatment groups A and B. analysis will be performed in SPSS version 21.

What participants receive

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

  • Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / ParacetamolDrug

    Also called with Ivermectin

    In the patient with the presence of COVID-19 confirmed by the PCR-COVID-19 positive test, the drug is randomly assigned to belong to group A of Azithromycin / Ivermectin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol to be followed for 14 days by video call (approximately 15 to 20 min per day) to the patient and the presence or absence of clinical symptoms, adverse reactions being recorded daily

  • Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / ParacetamolDrug

    Also called without Ivermectin

    In the patient with the presence of COVID-19 confirmed by the PCR-COVID-19 positive test, the drug is randomly assigned to belong to group B of Azithromycin / Ribaroxaban / Paracetamol, to be followed for 14 days by video call (approximately 15 to 20 min per day) to the patient and the presence or absence of clinical symptoms, adverse reactions being recorded daily

What is being measured

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

  1. Average Days in COVID-19 Symptoms by Type of Therapy in the UMF 20 and UMF 13 of the IMSS.

    Statistical differences were evaluated using Student's t test for quantitative variables. In relation to the presence of the number of days with clinical symptoms of COVID-19 by double therapy vs. triple therapy.

    Measured: 14 days

  2. Crosstabulated Outcome in Modification of the Evolution Clinical vs Fails Therapeutic by Type of Treatment in Patients With COVID-19 UMF 13 and UMF 20 of the IMSS

    Statistical differences between clinical evolution vs therapeutic failure by type of treatment were evaluated using Pearson's Chi-square test as categorical variables.

    Measured: 14 days

What does the primary outcome measure?

Average Days in COVID-19 Symptoms by Type of Therapy in the UMF 20 and UMF 13 of the IMSS. (time frame: 14 days). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04673214, which also lists 6 linked publications.

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.
