Summary
This trial will test if an investigational medication is safe and effective when used alongside the clinical standard of care treatment for people hospitalized with moderate to severe COVID-19 disease.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for hospitalized adults with moderate to severe COVID-19, confirmed by a test. Participants must have lung issues or need oxygen support but can't join if they have certain liver problems, untreated TB, active hepatitis B/C, recent serious infections, are pregnant/breastfeeding, or have severe kidney disease.
What is being tested?
The study tests Tocilizumab (blocks inflammation), Remdesivir (antiviral) alone or with Baricitinib (reduces immune response), alongside standard care. It aims to see how well these treatments work and their safety in different severity levels of COVID-19 patients.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include allergic reactions to the drugs; increased risk of infection; liver enzyme elevations; potential heart rhythm problems from Baricitinib; and infusion-related reactions from Tocilizumab.
