Participants | |
Randomized 326 participants (n1=169 / n2= 157) | |
Characteristics of participants N=326 Mean age : NR 177 males Severity : Mild: n=86 / Moderate: n=*/ Severe: n=48 Critical: n=0 | |
Primary outcome | |
In the register Pulmonary ordinal outcome [ Time Frame: Day 5 ] - Oxygen requirements measured by 7 categories (1 = least severe, 7 = most severe). The participant's highest (i.e. most severe) observed score is used ; Pulmonary+ ordinal outcome [ Time Frame: Day 5 ] - Extrapulmonary complications and respiratory dysfunction measured by 7 categories (1= least severe, 7 = most severe). The participant's highest (i.e. most severe) observed score is used ; Time from randomization to sustained recovery (Stage 2) [ Time Frame: Up to Day 90 ] - Sustained recovery defined as being discharged from the index hospitalization, followed by being alive and home for 14 consecutive days prior to Day 90. | |
In the report Time to a sustained recovery, which was defined as hospital discharge to home and remaining at home for at least 14 days. Two ordinal outcomes that are measuredat day 5 bothclassified according to seven-level ordinal scales,are termed pulmonary and pulmonary-plus outcomes.The primary safety outcome was a composite of death, serious adverse events, or grade 3 or 4 adverse events through day 5. | |

General comment |
In addition to the published article, the trial registry, study protocol, statistical analysis plan and supplementary materials were used in data extraction and assessment of risk of bias. There were no substantive differences between the published article and the trial registry, study protocol and statistical analysis plan. The trial did not achieve its pre-stated sample size as it was terminated for futility on the recommendation of the data and safety monitoring board. Quote: |
