1 A Multi Center Randomized Open Label Trial on the Safety and Efficacy of Chloroquine for the Treatment of Hospitalized Adults With Laboratory Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Vietnam

COVID-19 is a respiratory disease caused by a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and causes substantial morbidity and mortality. There is currently no vaccine to prevent COVID-19 or therapeutic agent to treat COVID-19. This clinical trial is designed to evaluate potential therapeutics for the treatment of hospitalized COVID-19. We hypothesis that chloroquine slows viral replication in patients with COVID-19, attenuating the infection, and resulting in more rapid declines in viral load in throat swabs. This viral attenuation should be associated with improved patient outcomes. Given the enormous experience of its use in malaria chemoprophylaxis, excellent safety and tolerability profile, and its very low cost, if proved effective then chloroquine would be a readily deployable and affordable treatment for patients with COVID-19. The study is funded and leaded by The Ministry of Health, Vietnam.

NCT04328493 SARS-CoV-2 Infection COVID-19 Drug: Chloroquine phosphate
MeSH:Infection

Primary Outcomes

Description: Viral presence will be determined using RT-PCR to detect SARS-CoV-19 RNA. Throat swabs for viral RNA will be taken daily while in hospital until there have at least 2 consecutive negative results . Virus will be defined as cleared when the patient has had ≥2 consecutive negative PCR tests. The time to viral clearance will be defined as the time following randomization to the first of the negative throat swabs.

Measure: Viral clearance time

Time: Up to 56 days post randomization

Secondary Outcomes

Description: The time since randomization to discharge between study groups

Measure: Lengh of hospital stay

Time: Up to 56 days post randomization

Description: The number of ventilator free days over the first 28 days of treatment

Measure: Ventilator free days

Time: first 28 days

Description: The number of oxygene free days over the first 28 days of treatment

Measure: Oxygene free days

Time: first 28 days

Description: The time to (all-cause) death following over the first 7, 10, 14, 28 and 56 days since randomization

Measure: Time to death

Time: first 7, 10, 14, 28 and 56 days since randomization

Description: The rates of serious adverse events, rates of grade 3 or 4 adverse events

Measure: Adverse events

Time: Over the first 28 days (due to the prolonged half-life of Chloroquine)

Description: Time since randomization to the first viral PCR negative from rectal swab

Measure: Time to viral PCR negative from rectal swab

Time: During the first 56 days post randomization

Description: Time since randomization to the first defervescence day

Measure: fever clearance time

Time: Up to 56 days post randomization

Description: WHO Ordinal outcome scale for COVID-19

Measure: Ordinal outcome scale

Time: Up to 56 days post randomization

Description: Development of ARDS defined by the Kigali criteria

Measure: Development of ARDS

Time: Up to 56 days post randomization

2 Multicenter, Randomized, Open-label, Non-commercial, Investigator-initiated Study to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Chloroquine Phosphate in Combination With Telemedicine in the Reduction of Risk of Disease-related Hospitalization or Death, in Ambulatory Patients With COVID-19 at Particular Risk of Serious Complications

The aim of the study is to evaluate whether the therapy with chloroquine phosphate (CQ, in combination with telemedical approach) in addition to standard care is effective and safe in reducing composite endpoint of COVID-19-related hospitalization or all cause death, in ambulatory patients with SARS-SoV-2 infection at particular risk of serious complications due to advanced age and/or comorbid conditions (in comparison with subjects not treated with CQ but receiving standard care and supervised telemedically).

NCT04331600 COVID-19 Drug: Chloroquine phosphate Other: Telemedicine

Primary Outcomes

Description: Composite endpoint of COVID-19-related hospitalization or all-cause death

Measure: COVID-19-related hospitalization or all-cause death

Time: 15 days

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Decrease in self-reported symptoms of novel coronavirus infection. Non-dichotomous symptoms (e.g. syncope is dichotomous - yes or no) such as dyspnoea will be self-evaluated by patients using the 0-3 scale with the severity increasing with the punctation (0-no symptoms, 1-mild symptoms, 2-moderate symptoms, 3-severe symptoms).

Measure: Decrease in COVID-19 symptoms

Time: 15 days and 42 days

Description: Based on X-ray, microbiology and laboratory results

Measure: Development of pneumonia

Time: 42 days

Description: Acute respiratory distress syndrome, bacterial infection, shock, sepsis, etc

Measure: Development of coronavirus infection-related complications

Time: 42 days
