Clinical Trials


1 Phase 2/3, Randomized, Open Study to Compare the Efficacy and Safety of Colchicine and Glucocorticoids Compared With the Standard of Treatment for Moderate/Severe COVID-19 in a Fragile and Vulnerable Population, Admitted to a Geriatric Hospital Unit or in a Transicional Care Center

Study to compare the efficacy and safety of colchicine and glucocorticoids compared with the standard of treatment for moderate/severe COVID-19 in a fragile and vulnerable population, admitted to a geriatric hospital unit or in a transicional care center

NCT04492358 Covid19 Drug: Colchicine Drug: Prednisone tablet Drug: standard of care

Primary Outcomes

Description: Number of patients that a short cycle of steroids (with prednisone 60 mg/d, in a single dose, for 3 consecutive days) administered together with colchicine (at doses of 0.5 to 1.5 mg/d, adjusted for weight and renal function, for 3 days and maintenance of 0.5 mg/d for 14 days in total) reduces mortality from COVID-19 in this population by at least 20%, compared to the approved standard treatment at participating centers.

Measure: Number of patients that a short cycle of steroids administered together with colchicine reduces mortality from COVID-19

Time: 28 days

Secondary Outcomes

Description: Number and grade of adverse events at group of colchicine and glucocorticoids throughout the treatment and in the two weeks following treatment according to the incidence of: mild adverse event serious adverse events hypersensitivity (allergic) reactions of grade >=2

Measure: Number and grade of adverse events at group of colchicine and glucocorticoids throughout the treatment and in the two weeks following treatment

Time: 28 days

Description: Percentage of patients who stop medication due to adverse events.

Measure: Percentage of patients who stop medication due to adverse events.

Time: 28 days

Description: Severity of symptoms by COVID-19 in the two treatment arms (response to treatment to be assessed by overall survival at 28 days from the start of treatment).

Measure: Severity of symptoms by COVID-19 in the two treatment arms

Time: 28 days
