Anti Infective Agents Impact in COVID-19 Pneumonia (AZITHROVID)

Interest of Azithromycin With or Without Hydroxychloroquine for the Treatment of COVID-19 Pneumonia : a Retrospective Observational Study

During COVID-19 epidemic, hydroxychloroquine was proposed and authorized as a possible key agent in the treatment of COVID-19 hospitalized pneumonia, including in France. Gautret et al. proposed the combination regimen with azithromycin. However only one study reported the interest of azithromycin alone.

Retrospective study reporting the impact of the anti-infective agents used during the pandemic in a tertiary care hospital, using azithromycin with or without hydroxychloroquine.

Cohorts and Interventions

Group / Cohort
Intervention / Treatment

Patient who received during admission for a severe COVID-19 pneumonia, azithromycin +/-hydroxychloroquine or no azithromycin.
Whether patient under such regimen had a favorable outcome (no transfer in intensive care unit or death)

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Favorable outcome
Time Frame: Assessed within 7 days after admission
After being admitted, patient was monitored whether he does not required to be transferred in ICU or died because of a severe COVID-19 pneumonia within 7 days. The outcome was purely clinical. If patient was discharged at home after admission and/or was transferred into a rehabilitation center he was considered as a favorable outcome independently of any biological marker.
Assessed within 7 days after admission

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Risk factors 1
Time Frame: Assessed at day 1
Studying if biological abnormalities (lymphocyte count or CRP) at admission were associated with an unfavorable outcome
Assessed at day 1
Risk factors 2
Time Frame: Assessed at day 1
Studying if comorbidities were associated with an unfavorable outcome
Assessed at day 1
Interest of anti-infective agents
