Brief summary

Blinded, multicenter, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial evaluating lopinavir/ritonavir vs placebo in early outpatient treatment of adults with COVID-19

Detailed description

We will conduct an investigator-initiated, multicenter, blinded, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial evaluating lopinavir/ritonavir vs placebo for early treatment of adults with COVID-19 in the outpatient setting prior to hospitalization. Patients, treating clinicians, and study personnel will all be blinded to study group assignment.
