Study to evaluate the impact of early treatment with a budesonide / formoterol versus standard of care on the evolution of the disease in vulnerable patients with COVID-19: INHALAVID Trial

Phase IV, single-center, randomized and open-label study to evaluate the impact of early treatment with a combination of an inhaled corticosteroid and a long-acting ß2 adrenergic agonist (budesonide / formoterol) versus standard of care on the evolution of the disease in vulnerable patients with COVID-19: INHALAVID Trial

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Main Objective: The main objective of the study is to evaluate the effect of the inhaled budesonide / formoterol combination (BiResp Spiromax®) on the evolution of patients at risk with COVID-19 compared to standard of care.;Secondary Objective: 1. Evaluate and compare the impact on the rate of hospital admissions 2. Evaluate and compare the mortality for the patients assigned to the two treatment groups. 3. Evaluate and compare the rate of admission to the ICU for the patients assigned to the two treatment groups. 4. Evaluate and compare the length of hospital stay for the patients assigned to the two treatment groups. 5. Evaluate and compare the safety profile for the patients assigned to the two treatment groups.;Primary end point(s): Change in the Dublin-Boston score [1] in the 2 treatment groups from the start of treatment (D0) to day 4 (D + 4). A significant clinical response in terms of the Dublin-Boston score will be considered a decline on the scale of at least one category. The percentage of patients included in categories -1 and -2 to D + 4 will be compared;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: From the start of treatment (D0) to day 4 (D+4)

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary end point(s): • Percentage of patients requiring admission to the hospital ward for COVID-19 after 30 days from the start of treatment. • Mortality from COVID-19 at +30 days. Death or death from COVID is defined when it is caused by respiratory failure, acute respiratory distress syndrome, multiorgan failure or any other serious complication, during the course of the evolution of an acute infection by SARS-CoV-2. • Frequency of comorbidities. • Percentage of patients requiring admission to the ICU. • Days of length of hospital stay • The variables to be measured will be the frequency of adverse events, the frequency of serious adverse effects, the frequency of adverse effects that lead to the interruption of treatment, the number of deaths and the frequency of laboratory changes not directly related to COVID disease. -19.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: D0, D+4, D+7, D+14, D+30 (End of Treatment Visit/ Early withdrawal)
