Detailed Description
This randomized placebo-controlled trial is for the outpatient treatment of (Coronavirus Disease 2019) COVID-19. The purpose of this trial is to evaluate the safety and explore the effectiveness of resveratrol, a plant polyphenol, being re-purposed for patients with early COVID-19. Published in vitro data supports that this polyphenol inhibits coronavirus replication while separately published in silico (computer molecular docking analysis) reports have identified specific molecular targets of resveratrol against (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - Coronavirus 2) SARS-CoV-2. Animal studies also demonstrate that resveratrol is effective at preventing lung injury and death in certain animal models of viral infections. Furthermore, the products long history as an anti-inflammatory might prevent the cytokine storm that is associated with worse outcomes in COVID-19.
200 subjects, 45 and older, (100 receiving the plant polyphenol, 100 receiving placebo) will be enrolled in study to compare whether taking resveratrol will reduce the rate of hospitalization. Subjects will take capsules 4 times a day for a minimum of 7 days (up to 15 days depending on duration of symptoms) plus both groups will receive Vitamin D3 100,000 IU to augment the effects of resveratrol. Resveratrol will be given as 1gm 4 times per day. Placebo tablets will contain brown rice flour in visually identical capsules. The primary outcome measure for this trial is reduction in hospitalization at 21 days from enrollment.
