Detailed Description

This is a phase IV, open-labelled, randomized controlled clinical trial. A total of 125 cases who are novel coronavirus positive are planned to be recruited. These cases are randomized into 3 groups: in group A（Standard treatment+lopinavir/ritonavir）, 50 cases are given ordinary treatment plus a regimen of lopinavir (200mg) and ritonavir (50mg) (oral, q12h, every time 2 tablets of each, taking for 7-14 days). In group B（Standard treatment+arbidol） , 50 cases are given ordinary treatment plus a regimen of arbidol (100mg) (oral, tid, 200mg each time, taking for 7-14 days). In group C（Standard treatment）, 25 cases are only given ordinary treatment. The observation duration is 21 days. Patients will be followed up at baseline (day 0) and day 2, 4, 7, 10,14, 21 after receiving indicated treatment. The primary observed indicators include viral nucleic in acid nose / throat swab, body temperature, respiratory rate, oxygen saturation of blood, chest imaging. The secondary observed indicators include but not limited to blood pressure, heart rate, blood routine test, liver and kidney function, myocardial enzyme, flow cytometry classification and counting, cytokines, other infection indicators, conditions and parameters of auxiliary respiration, the total days in hospital, exacerbation and mortality.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria
