Brief summary

In adults with COVID-19 without criteria for hospitalization or oxygen therapy but with risk factors for aggravation, early treatment may avoid hospitalization, indication for oxygen therapy or death. No treatment is currently validated for this indication.

Detailed description

COVERAGE France is Multicenter, randomized, controlled clinical trial with for each drug : * A safety study pilot phase. * An efficacy study phase. The data collected during the pilot phase, combined with new external data that emerged during the period, will be used to position treatments for the efficacy phase. * Pilot phase will evaluate the tolerance of experimental treatments for drugs given for the first time (first in home-based care) in ambulatory individuals with COVID-19 with aggravating risk factors. * Efficacy Phase: To estimate the effectiveness of experimental ambulatory treatments, compared to vitamin supplementation, in reducing the risk of hospitalization, oxygen therapy indication or death in ambulatory individuals with COVID-19 with aggravating risk factors. The trial is a national platform with the vocation to open as many centers as possible, subject to criteria set by the Scientific Advisory Board.
