About this trial

This is an interventional treatment trial for Covid-19 focused on measuring Adult Respiratory Distress Syndrome, Pneumonia, Myocardial infarction

Eligibility Criteria

40 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Adults age 40 years and older
  • with suspected or confirmed acute COVID-19 infection. Acute COVID-19 infection is suspected in the presence of a fever and at least one symptom of respiratory disease e.g. cough, difficulty breathing, signs of hypoxia. The clinician may suspect COVID-19 infection if i) the patient lives in or has recently travelled to an area with COVID-19 transmission; ii) the patient had recent contact with a confirmed or probable COVID-19 case, or iii) no alternative diagnosis fully explains the clinical presentation
  • requiring hospitalisation

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Women known to be pregnant
  • Patients hospitalised without symptoms of acute COVID-19 infection should not be recruited even if they test positive for COVID-19
  • Patients already receiving mechanical ventilation
  • Patients with a definite indication or contraindication for any of the trial treatments.
  • Patients who are very severely frail (completely dependent and approaching end of life who typically they could not recover even from a mild illness) or terminally ill should not be recruited.

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The CRASH-19 trial is a multinational, open-label, factorial, randomised trial in adults hospitalised with suspected or confirmed acute COVID-19 infection.
Detailed Description
We will evaluate the effect of aspirin (150mg once daily), losartan (100mg once daily), and simvastatin (80mg once daily) in patients with COVID-19 infection. Eligible patients will be randomly allocated to one of eight study arms (aspirin only; losartan only; simvastatin only; aspirin and losartan; aspirin and simvastatin; losartan and simvastatin; aspirin, losartan and simvastatin; standard care only). Trial treatments are given in addition to the usual standard of care at the study hospital. Treatment will be started as soon as possible after randomisation and will continue until death, discharge or 28 days after randomisation, whichever occurs first.
