Name |
Details |
Intervention |
Chlorophyllin tablets |
Patients will be administered orally, tablets of chlorophyllin, 1 tablet of 750 mg once every day, on empty stomach in the morning, from the date of randomization till the day of discharge, or death, whichever is earlier. They will also receive the Standard Treatment . |
Intervention |
Resveratrol-Copper tablets |
Patients will be administered orally, tablets of R-Cu containing 5.6 mg of Resveratrol and 560 ng of copper, 1 tablet once every 6 hours, from the date of randomization till the day of discharge, or death, whichever is earlier. They will also receive the Standard Treatment |
Comparator Agent |
Standard treatment |
Patients in this arm can receive all standard treatment that the treating team considers appropriate including any other antibiotic, antibacterial, antiviral or antimicrobial drugs. However, patients in this arm cannot receive Resveratrol -Copper treatment. The treatment proptocol will be in sync with the emerging scientific evidence and evolving national guidelines |

Brief Summary
|
At present, there are no specific antiviral drugs or vaccine
against COVID-19 disease for potential therapy on humans. It will be worthwhile
testing SARS-CoV-2 positive patients in cancer patients with new molecules i.e.
resveretrol-copper and sodium-copper-chlorophyllin which may provide a solution
to treat the pathology of COVID-19 with its possible mechanism of action.
Research has shown that cfCh released from dying host cells following microbial
infection leads to bystander host cell apoptosis and inflammation which is perpetuated
in a vicious cycle. It can be broken by administration of R-Cu, which
inactivates cfCh released from dying cells leading to amelioration of sepsis
which is the end stage of COVID-19 as well as it degrades the SARS-CoV2 RNA
through which it may show amelioration in viral load and clinical symptoms
which may likely to show improvement in clinical condition. The objectives of
this study are to assess whether resveretrol-copper and/or
sodium-copper-chlorophyllin will reduce the time to clinical improvement in
COVID 19 cancer patients with pneumonia, and reduce 28-day mortality in
COVID-19 patients with pneumonia in cancer patients. The study will be carried
out in 200 SARS-CoV positive cancer patients randomly assigned in 1:1:1 ratio
to resveratrol-copper + standard treatment (Arm 1), sodium copper chlorophyllin
+ standard treatment (Arm 2) or standard treatment alone (Arm 3). The primary
endpoint will be calculated by Kaplan–Meier plots and compared between Arm 1
and Arm 3 & between Arm 2 and Arm 3 using the log-rank test. Hazard ratios
with 95% confidence intervals will be calculated by the Cox
proportional-hazards model. |
