About this study

Official title: The Effect of Paxlovid in the Treatment of COVID-19 Patients With Uremia

This study is a single-center, open-label, randomized controlled clinical study to evaluate the effect of Paxlovid on the virus-negative time and disease progression in uremic patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 (omicron variants).

This study will enroll maintenance hemodialysis patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 (omicron variants).

After signing the informed consent form, the qualified subjects will be randomly stratified 1:1 to standard-of-care (SOC) or SOC plus Paxlovid for five days.

Conditions
COVID-19, Uremia
Being tested
Paxlovid, standard-of-care
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • PaxlovidDrug

    Paxlovid contains two medicines: nirmatrelvir and ritonavir. Nirmatrelvir [PF-07321332] is a SARS-CoV-2 main protease (Mpro) inhibitor (also known as SARS-CoV2 3CL protease inhibitor) that works by inhibiting viral replication in the early stages of the disease to prevent progression to severe COVID-19.

    Ritonavir is co-administered with nirmatrelvir to help slow its metabolism in order for it to remain active in the body for longer periods of time at higher concentrations to help combat the virus.

  • standard-of-careDrug

    standard-of-care of COVID-19

What is being measured

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

  1. time of negative conversion of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid

    Time from first positive to negative of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid

    Measured: up to 60 days

  2. Proportion of ICU transfer or disease progression to severe or critical illness

    Measured: up to 60 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Early Phase 1 study testing Paxlovid and standard-of-care in people with COVID-19 and Uremia, run by Ruijin Hospital.

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 4 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 23 May 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

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

What does this phase mean?

Early Phase 1 (sometimes called Phase 0) studies give a very small amount of a treatment to a few people, mainly to see how the body handles it.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

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?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

time of negative conversion of SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid (time frame: up to 60 days). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 23 May 2022.
