What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Time to clinical improvement

    Time to clinical improvement (TTCI) was defined as time (days) from randomization to a decline of 2 categories on the seven-category ordinal scale of clinical status or live discharge from the hospital, whichever came first

    Time frame: up to 28 days

Secondary outcomes

  1. Time to recovery

    Day of recovery is defined as the first day on which the subject satisfies one of the following: 1) Not hospitalized with resumption of normal activities; 2) Not hospitalized, but unable to resume normal activities; 3) Hospitalization, not requiring supplemental oxygen- no longer required ongoing medical care

    Time frame: up to 28 days

  2. Proportion of patients with clinical improvement as defined by live discharge from hospital or a decline of 2 categories on the seven-category ordinal scale of clinical status

    Proportion of patients with clinical improvement as defined by live discharge from hospital or a decline of 2 categories on the seven-category ordinal scale of clinical status

    Time frame: Day 4, 7, 10, 14, 21 and 28
