Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: To investigate whether treatment with a single high-dose of Vitamin D3 25000 IU (625µg) versus placebo in SARS-COV-2 positive patients, will reduce disease-aggravation defined as need for hospital-admission and duration of hospitalization or death in home-based patients.;Secondary Objective: Not applicable;Primary end point(s): Disease aggravation defined as: Combined endpoint of death and duration of hospitalization, calculated as Days Alive and Out of Hospital (DAOH) in a Time Frame of 6 weeks (42 days). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 weeks (42 days)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): a) Rate of combined death or hospitalization b) All-cause mortality c) Percentage of “ended infection”** in the first month after inclusion (**: “recovered” COVID-19 - according to the definition of Statens Serum Institute (SSI)). ;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: 6 weeks (42 days)
