Very late stage RCT with 50 ICU patients treated with HCQ, 255 lopinavir-ritonavir patients, and 27 combined therapy patients, showing higher mortality with all treatments. Note: the longer term followup results reported in Higgins et al. are included in meta analysis.
risk of death, 44.5% higher, RR 1.44, p = 0.01, treatment 17 of 49 (34.7%), control 106 of 353 (30.0%), adjusted per study, inverted to make RR<1 favor treatment, odds ratio converted to relative risk, multivariable.

Webb9,48 on behalf of the REMAP-CAP Investigators © 2021 Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature Abstract Purpose: To study the efficacy of lopinavir-ritonavir and hydroxychloroquine in critically ill patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Methods: Critically ill adults with COVID-19 were randomized to receive lopinavir-ritonavir, hydroxychloroquine, combination therapy of lopinavir-ritonavir and hydroxychloroquine or no antiviral therapy (control). The primary endpoint was an ordinal scale of organ support-free days. Analyses used a Bayesian cumulative logistic model and expressed treatment effects as an adjusted odds ratio (OR) where an OR > 1 is favorable. Results: We randomized 694 patients to receive lopinavir-ritonavir (n = 255), hydroxychloroquine (n = 50), combina‑ tion therapy (n = 27) or control (n = 362). The median organ support-free days among patients in lopinavir-ritonavir, hydroxychloroquine, and combination therapy groups was 4 (– 1 to 15), 0 (– 1 to 9) and—1 (– 1 to 7), respectively, *Correspondence: arabi@ngha.med.sa 1 Intensive Care Department, Ministry of the National Guard-Health Affairs, ICU 1425, P.O.

The three interventions decreased organ supportfree days compared to control (OR [95% credible interval]: 0.73 [0.55, 0.99], 0.57 [0.35, 0.83] 0.41 [0.24, 0.72]), yielding posterior probabilities that reached the threshold futility (≥ 99.0%), and high probabilities of harm (98.0%, 99.9% and > 99.9%,..
