1 Efficacy and Safety of 72-hour Infusion of Prostacyclin (1 Nanogram(ng)/ Kilo(kg)/Minute(Min)) in Patients With COVID-19 Induced Pulmonary Endotheliopathy

The purpose of this trial is to investigate the efficacy and safety of continuous intravenous administration of low dose iloprost versus placebo for 72-hours, in 80 patients with COVID-19 suffering from respiratory failure. The study hypothesis is that iloprost may be beneficial as an endothelial rescue treatment as it is anticipated to deactivate the endothelium and restore vascular integrity in COVID-19 patients suffering from respiratory failure caused by endothelial breakdown, ultimately improving survival. Given that the pulmonary system, apart from the brain, is the most highly vascularized vital organ in the body, extensive endothelial damage is a central feature of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) with respiratory failure being the rationale for the current study COMBAT-COVID-19.
