Brief Summary
|
The clinical manifestations and the severity of illnesses following COVID-19 infections are the result of immune dysregulations. There is an imperative need for the development of antiviral and immunomodulatory drugs that can modify the course of the disease. In this respect, an ideal adjuvant drug should be a low-cost generic medication, easily accessible in pandemics events with an established safety profile. This type of drug should aim at the host’s immune response to alleviate the effects of immune dysregulation. Such anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory agents may effectively complement the usual care in COVID-19 infection. It is with this premise that we intend to evaluate two commonly used cardioactive drugs with anti-inflammatory properties, statins and aspirin, as adjuvant therapy in COVID-19 infection. It will be a single-centre, prospective, four-arm parallel-group, open-label randomized active-control superiority trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of atorvastatin and aspirin in reducing clinical deterioration (WHO ordinal scale more than or equal to 6) and serum inflammatory biomarkers in symptomatic (WHO ordinal scale 3-5) COVID-19 infected patients.
