About this study

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes significant morbidity and mortality. This study is a retrospective trial to assess the efficacy of Remdesivir in adult patients diagnosed with COVID-19 in Mansoura University Isolation Hospital. In this study the investigators will analyze the data collected during treatment.

Read the detailed description

COVID-19 is a novel respiratory disease caused by coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and results in significant morbidity and mortality. To date there is no approved medication for the treatment of patients with COVID-19. Remdesivir is a broad-spectrum antiviral nucleotide analogue that inhibits RNA-dependent RNA polymerase activity among a diverse group of RNA viruses. Non-clinical and clinical data suggest that Remdesivir may be useful for the treatment of COVID-19. WHO has identified Remdesivir as a candidate drug of interest to be studied in clinical trials. This retrospective study is designed to analyze the data collected during the routine care of patients who have benefited from this therapy.

    Measured: 15 days

  19. Change from baseline in The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score (SOFA score)

    The Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) is a morbidity severity score and mortality estimation tool. It allows for calculation of both the number and the severity of organ dysfunction in six organ systems (respiratory, coagulatory, liver, cardiovascular, renal, and neurologic). The following values are used to calculate the score: (PaO2 / FiO2 and artificial ventilation; platelets; bilirubin; average blood pressure and use of vasoactive drugs; creatinine).The total score ranges from 0-24. Zero indicates low risk while 24 indicates higher risk of mortality.

    Measured: 15 days

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Duration of hospitalization

    Number of days of hospital admission either in ICU or ward till date of discharge

    Measured: 15 days

  2. Supplemental Oxygen Requirement from Baseline

    Duration of increased supplemental oxygen requirement from baseline

    Measured: 15 days

  3. Duration without mechanical ventilation

    Duration without mechanical ventilation within 15 days of initiation of treatment with Remdesivir

    Measured: 15 days

  4. Mortality

    Mortality at 15 days after initiation of treatment with Remdesivir.

    Measured: 15 days

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 3 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 Jan 2021. 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 Egypt. 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.

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

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Change from baseline in Pulse rate (time frame: 15 days). The study lists 19 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?
