Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The study is aimed: 1) at defining if ivermectin, administered at dosage of 600 µg/kg or 1200 µg/kg QD for five consecutive days is safe in patients with initial, asymptomatic or oligosymptomatic SARS_CoV-2 infection, 2) at defining if ivermectin, administered at the dosage(s) found to be safe decreases the viral load of SARS-CoV-2 at Day 7.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objectives To assess 1. the temporal profile of viral load at baseline, day 7, 14 and 30 2. the time to clinical cure (for symptomatic patients) 3. the proportion of patients with virological clearance at day 14 and 30. 4. the hospitalization rate. 5. the COVID-19 Severity Score at day 14 and 30;Primary end point(s): 1. Number of serious adverse drug reaction (SADR). 2. Quantitative viral load at Day 7 as measured by quantitative, digital droplet PCR. NB: The primary outcome no.2., as well as all secondary outcomes, will be measured only if the number of SADR is less than 4 in at least one of the treatment arms.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 14

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): Trend over time of quantitative viral load at Day 7, 14 and Day 30 as measured by quantitative, digital droplet PCR.; Time to clinical resolution (for symptomatic patients).; Proportion of patients with virological clearance at day 14 and 30; Rate of hospitalization.; COVID-19 Severity Score at Day 14 and Day 30;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Day 7, 14 and 30; During the follow-up period; Day 14 and 30; During the follow-up period; Day 14 and 30
