Small 108 patient RCT comparing HCQ vs. remdesivir in very late stage treatment. All patients received tocilizumab. There were significant unadjusted baseline differences in ventilation and ICU admission. NCT04779047 (history). REC-H-PhBSU-21011.
Although the 26% lower mortality is not statistically significant, it is consistent with the significant 22% lower mortality [18‑27%] from meta analysis of the 232 mortality results to date. This study is excluded in the after exclusion results of meta analysis: very late stage, >50% on oxygen/ventilation at baseline; significant unadjusted differences between groups.
risk of death, 25.7% lower, RR 0.74, p = 0.39, treatment 12 of 56 (21.4%), control 15 of 52 (28.8%), NNT 13.
risk of no hospital discharge, 25.7% lower, RR 0.74, p = 0.39, treatment 12 of 56 (21.4%), control 15 of 52 (28.8%), NNT 13.
hospitalization time, 25.0% higher, relative time 1.25, p = 0.06, treatment 56, control 52.

Jo Patients and Methods: A prospective randomized cohort study comprised 108 adult patients with confirmed PCR COVID 19 infection with systemic hyper inflammation state, divided into two groups according to the treatment regimen, 56 in the tocilizumab- hydroxychloroquine (TCZ-HCQ) treatment, and 52 in the tocilizumabremdesivir (TCZ-RMV) treatment. The first group received a combination of I.V. TCZ (400 -800 mg every 24 hours for only two doses) and HCQ (400 mg twice in the first day then 200 mg twice for 5 days) while the second group of patients received I.V. RMV of 200 mg on day 1 followed by 100 mg once daily infused over 60 minutes for 5 days with the same TCZ regimen used in the first group. All clinical parameters and laboratory investigations were assessed before and after..
