NCT04844658

Brief Summary

The objective of this study is to evaluate the effect and safety of NASAFYTOL® on COVID-19 positive hospitalized patients as a supportive supplementation to standard-of-care in improving clinical parameters safely during hospital admission (maximum 14 days). The study is a standard-of-care comparative, open, parallel two-arms and randomized trial in 50 adult patients positive to COVID-19 infection and hospitalized. It will be monocentric but may be extended to several investigation sites (multicentric) depending on the evolution of the epidemic within the hospitals.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (13)

  • Improvement of the patient's clinical condition based on the WHO ordinal outcomes score

    Time to a 1-point decrease on the ordinal scale. The ordinal scale reflects a range score from uninfected to dead, where 0 is "no clinical or virological evidence of infection", 1 is "no limitation of activities", 2 is "limitation of activities", 3 is "hospitalized, no oxygen therapy", 4 is "oxygen by mask or nasal prongs", 5 is "non-invasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen", 6 is "intubation and mechanical ventilation", 7 is "ventilation + additional organ support - pressors, RRT (renal replacement therapy), ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation)", and 8 is "death".

    day 14

  • Improvement of the patient's clinical condition based on the WHO ordinal outcomes score

    Ordinal score at 14 days (or at hospital leave if \<14 days) post randomization. The ordinal scale reflects a range score from uninfected to dead, where 0 is "no clinical or virological evidence of infection", 1 is "no limitation of activities", 2 is "limitation of activities", 3 is "hospitalized, no oxygen therapy", 4 is "oxygen by mask or nasal prongs", 5 is "non-invasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen", 6 is "intubation and mechanical ventilation", 7 is "ventilation + additional organ support - pressors, RRT (renal replacement therapy), ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation)", and 8 is "death".
