Trial summary

Viral infections provoke the systemic inflammatory response and cause an imbalance between the procoagulant and anticoagulant homeostatic mechanisms. Multiple pathogenic mechanisms are involved, including endothelial dysfunction, increased von Willebrand factor, Toll receptor activation, and tissue factor pathway… Read more about this study

About this study

Viral infections provoke the systemic inflammatory response and cause an imbalance between the procoagulant and anticoagulant homeostatic mechanisms. Multiple pathogenic mechanisms are involved, including endothelial dysfunction, increased von Willebrand factor, Toll receptor activation, and tissue factor pathway activation. D-dimer levels greater than 1000 ng / mL are associated with an 18-fold increased risk of mortality. In this context, many patients may require prophylaxis or antithrombotic treatment with low molecular weight heparins. Currently, there is no validated scheme on the dose and timing of the use of antithrombotic drugs.

The study aims to identify the effect of two anticoagulant strategies (prophylactic and therapeutic) on the progression to ventilatory support or death in patients with COVID-19 infection who require hospital care.

Read the detailed description

Randomized clinical trial in patients with a confirmed infection by COVID-19 who require hospital treatment and subsequent ambulatory surveillance.

Study population. Patients with a diagnosis by PCR of COVID 19, over 18 years of age from the High Specialty Hospital of Ixtapaluca, who meet the inclusion criteria.

Statistic analysis. The student's T-test was carried out to identify the difference in the means of the quantitative variables between the groups. A value of P ≤ 0.05, 95% CI will be considered significant. For the hypothesis test, the chi-square test will be performed, considering a p≤ 0.05, 95% CI value to be significant.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • EnoxaparinDrug

    Also called low molecular weight heparin

    Identify the benefit of different doses of low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) on the established clinical response due to lack of ventilatory support, length of hospital stay or death in patients requiring hospital care for COVID-19 infection.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) and ventilatory support time

    Identify the benefit of different doses of low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) on ventilatory support time in patients requiring hospital care for COVID-19 infection.

    Measured: 30 days

  2. thrombotic complications and Rivaroxaban

    To compare oral anticoagulation therapy by administering Rivaroxaban 10mg PO every 24 hours on early thrombotic complications

    Measured: 30 days

  3. low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) and length of hospital stay

    Identify the benefit of different doses of low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) on the length of hospital stay in patients requiring hospital care for COVID-19 infection.

    Measured: 30 days

  4. low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) and mortality rate

    Identify the benefit of different doses of low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) over mortality rate in patients requiring hospital care for COVID-19 infection.

    Measured: 30 days

Model description
* Initially they will be randomized into two blocks, the first based on prophylactic Enoxaparin (Numbers 1 to 64) and the second (Numbers 65 to 128) will be assigned to the Enoxaparin therapeutic regimen arm at doses of 1mg / kg/dose twice up to date * During hospitalization, the clinical evolution will be evaluated according to the requirements of mechanical ventilation, the reduction in D-Dimer levels and the clinical outcome (discharge or death). * Those patients who are discharged will be Randomized in two following treatment arms * The allocation of patients in the outpatient stage will be carried out randomly 1: 1 to receive Rivaroxaban 10mg PO every 24hrs or only clinical follow-up. * Follow-up of adverse events will be carried out in the Hematology outpatient clinic with a first consultation 15 days after discharge and a second consultation 30 days after discharge. With dimer D, ferritin, protein C, blood count, ESR and on day 30 with CAT.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Enoxaparin in people with Covid19 and Pneumonia, run by Hospital Regional de Alta especialidad de Ixtapaluca at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 11 Aug 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Omar Ramos-Peñafiel, MD, PhD (+525523351588, christian.ramos.penafiel@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

low molecular weight heparin (enoxaparin) and ventilatory support time (time frame: 30 days). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04508439, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 11 Aug 2020.
