Infectious Disease SARS-CoV Infection Covid19 | Drug: Favipiravir Drug: Azithromycin | Phase 3 |
Pre-screening is assessing patients who meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Screening was carried out to assess whether the subjects met the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Randomization was performed to determine the study drug allocation. The research subjects were inpatients at selected hospitals and at the time of recruitment, the time was called D1. The next day is called D2 and so on Follow-up will be carried out from the first day of recruitment, taking medication up to a maximum of 19 days for test drugs and 11 days for SoC drugs. Recording of clinical and laboratory manifestations will be carried out from recruitment until the patient returns from the hospital.
All results will be recorded in a case report form, and if a case of clinical and laboratory manifestations is found to be severe, it will be written on the adverse case report form and reported immediately according to standard GCP procedures. Subjects may also drop out of the study due to discontinuation of follow-up or a protocol violation
