COVID-19 Treatment Clinical Evidence
COVID-19 involves the interplay of 400+ viral and host proteins and factors, providing many therapeutic targets.
c19early analyzes 6,000+ studies for 210+ treatments—over 17 million hours of research.
Only three high-profit early treatments are approved in the US.
In reality, many treatments reduce risk,
with 25 low-cost treatments approved across 163 countries.
-
Naso/
oropharyngeal treatment Effective Treatment directly to the primary source of initial infection. -
Healthy lifestyles Protective Exercise, sunlight, a healthy diet, and good sleep all reduce risk.
-
Immune support Effective Vitamins A, C, D, and zinc show reduced risk, as with other viruses.
-
Thermotherapy Effective Methods for increasing internal body temperature, enhancing immune system function.
-
Systemic agents Effective Many systemic agents reduce risk, and may be required when infection progresses.
-
High-profit systemic agents Conditional Effective, but with greater access and cost barriers.
-
Monoclonal antibodies Limited Utility Effective but rarely used—high cost, variant dependence, IV/SC admin.
-
Acetaminophen Harmful Increased risk of severe outcomes and mortality.
-
Remdesivir Harmful Increased mortality with longer followup. Increased kidney and liver injury, cardiac disorders.

, A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of an inhibitor of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (TM5614) in mild to moderate COVID-19, Scientific Reports, doi:10.1038/s41598-023-50445-1
AbstractAn inhibitor of plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI)-1, TM5614, inhibited thrombosis, inflammation, and fibrosis in several experimental mouse models. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of TM5614 in human COVID-19 pneumonia, phase IIa and IIb trials were conducted. In an open-label, single-arm trial, 26 Japanese COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate pneumonia were treated with 120–180 mg of TM5614 daily, and all were discharged without any notable side effects. Then, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in Japanese COVID-19 patients with mild to moderate pneumonia. The number of study participants was set to be 50 in each arm. Even after extension of the enrollment period, the number of study participants did not reach the initially intended sample size, and 75 patients were enrolled in the study. The total oxygenation scale from Day 1 to Day 14 as the primary endpoint was 1.5 in the TM5614 group vs 4.0 in the placebo group (p = 0.22), and the number of days of oxygen administration required as the secondary endpoint was 2.0 days in the TM5614 group vs 3.5 days in the placebo group (p = 0.34). Further studies will be necessary to verify the efficacy of PAI-1 inhibition for the treatment of COVID-19 pneumonia.Clinical trial registration: Two studies were conducted: a prospective, multicenter, open-label phase II study at https://jrct.niph.go.jp (jRCT2021200018) (First registration date 18/08/2020) and a prospective, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, phase II study at https://jrct.niph.go.jp (jRCT2021210006) (First registration date 28/05/2021).
