A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-Blinded, Placebo-Controlled Study to Assess Safety and Efficacy of SIR1-365 in Patients With Severe COVID-19

Qu et al., NCT04622332, NCT04622332, Nov 2021
Pilot RCT 42 hospitalized COVID-19 patients showing no significant differences with SIR1-365 treatment. foo
Standard of Care (SOC) for COVID-19 in the study country, the USA, is very poor with very low average efficacy for approved treatments1. Only expensive, high-profit treatments were approved for early treatment. Low-cost treatments were excluded, reducing the probability of early treatment due to access and cost barriers, and eliminating complementary and synergistic benefits seen with many low-cost treatments.
