Brief summary
To investigate the mechanism, clinical outcome and therapeutic efficacy with favipiravir of Corona Virus Disease 2019 patients whose nucleic acids changed from negative to positive.
Detailed description
In clinical institutions that enroll corona virus disease 2019 patients whose nucleic acids changed from negative to positive, two arms, multi-center, randomized and controlled methods are adopted. Patients are divided into two groups, favipiravir group and regular treatment group. 210 patients are expected to be enrolled and the cases are allocated according to the ratio of 2( favipiravir group): 1(regular treatment group).
Interventions
DRUGFavipiravir
On the 1st day, 1600mg each time, twice a day; from the 2nd to the 7th day, 600mg each time, twice a day. Oral administration, the maximum number of days taken is not more than 14 days.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Viral nucleic acid test negative conversion rate | 5 months | Proportion of subjects who tested negative for nucleic acid from sputum or nasopharyngeal swabs for two consecutive times(sampling time at least 24 hours). |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Clinical cure rate | 5 months | Definition of clinical cure: The viral load of the respiratory specimen was negative for two consecutive times (the interval between the two tests was greater than or equal to one day), the lung image improved, and the body temperature returned to normal for more than 3 days, and the clinical manifestation improved. |
