E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
To determine the efficacy of a single dose of ivermectin, administered to low risk, non-severe COVID-19 patients in the first 48 hours after symptoms onset to reduce the proportion of patients with detectable SARS-CoV-2 RNA by PCR from nasopharyngeal swab at day seven post-treatment. |
Determinar la eficacia de la ivermectina en dosis única, administrada a pacientes de COVID-19 con bajo riesgo de progresión a enfermedad grave, en las primeras 48 horas desde el inicio de los síntomas, para reducir la proporción de pacientes con PCR positiva para SARS-CoV-2 en el hisopado naso-faríngeo a los siete días desde el tratamiento. |
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
1. To assess the efficacy of ivermectin to reduce the SARS-CoV-2 viral load in the nasopharyngeal swab at day seven post treatment 2. To assess the efficacy of ivermectin to improve symptom progression in treated patients 3. To assess the proportion of seroconversions at day 21 in treated patients 4. To assess the safety of ivermectin at the proposed dose 5. To determine the magnitude of immune response against SARS-CoV-2 6. To assess the early kinetics of immunity against SARS-CoV-2 |
1. Determinar la eficacia de la ivermectina en la reducción del transporte viral nasal de SARS-CoV-2 a los siete días desde el tratamiento 2.
