About This Document

This report provides information on the ongoing phase II/III, phase III, and phase IV randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of drugs intended to prevent or treat COVID-19. The goal is to provide an evergreen document that is regularly updated. It is important to note that this report is not a systematic review and does not include a critical appraisal of studies. It is not intended to provide any recommendations.

Objective

To describe the trial characteristics and estimated primary completion dates of the ongoing phase II/III, phase III, and phase IV RCTs evaluating drugs to prevent or treat COVID-19.

Selection Criteria and Methods

The phase II/III, phase III, and phase IV RCTs were identified from the ClinicalTrials.gov website1 using the inclusion criteria in Table 1.

HEALTH TECHNOLOGY REVIEW Ongoing Trials for Drugs in the Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 3

Table 1: Selection Criteria

Population Patients with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection (COVID-19) or at risk (pre-/post-exposure prophylaxis or prevention) Intervention Drugs for treatment and prevention Comparator No restriction Outcomes No restriction Study designs Phase III (including phase II/III) and phase IV RCTs that are: recruiting; not yet recruiting; enrolling by invitation; or active, but not recruiting Estimated primary completion date By September 30, 2021

Exclusion Criteria

Non-drugs (e.g., devices), natural products, nutraceuticals, plasma products, stem cell therapies, and vaccines were excluded from this report. Trials on plasma products and vaccines are provided in separate reports. Non-randomized studies and single-arm trials were excluded. All trials of chloroquine, hydroxychloroquine, and remdesivir were also excluded from this review, as their trial information is available in published CADTH reports.2

The results were tabulated according to indication (prevention and treatment) and phase of clinical development and are presented in order of estimated primary trial completion dates (with the earliest first). Health Canada’s Clinical Trial Database’s identifier is also noted in the tables (Health Canada [HC] Control No.).3

The tables will be updated bi-weekly or if key trial data or results become available. When a trial’s status changes to “Completed,” “Withdrawn,” “Terminated,” or “Suspended” in ClinicalTrials.gov, the information will be moved to an appendix. A separate report may be initiated to evaluate and critically appraise the evidence once results are published.

Results

As of December 18, 2020, 68 phase II/III, 116 phase III, and 38 phase IV treatment trials; one phase II/III, four phase III and one phase IV pre-exposure trials; and one phase II/II and 11 phase III post-exposure trials met the inclusion criteria (Tables 2 and 3). The sample sizes of the included trials ranged from 20 to 16,500 patients.

Trial populations for most of the trials included hospitalized adult patients; few treatment trials included outpatients (22 trials) or children younger than 16 years (15 trials). Based on dates included in the tables, 101 trials have estimated primary completion dates by the end of December 2020. Twenty trials with Canadian study sites were identified (as highlighted in the tables).

Trials for which the status was changed to “Completed,” “Withdrawn,” “Terminated,” or “Suspended” in ClinicalTrials.gov are depicted in Appendix 1, Table 4.

Limitations

The information provided in this report relies on the information posted on the ClinicalTrials.gov registry. There may be reporting errors in the study records posted on ClinicalTrials.gov. Furthermore, given the rapid changes occurring with the scientific evidence related to COVID-19, the reporting of amendments to the included trial protocols

HEALTH TECHNOLOGY REVIEW Ongoing Trials for Drugs in the Prevention and Treatment of COVID-19 4

may be delayed. While some trials have reached their primary completion dates, their status are still showing as “recruiting” and results have not yet been posted. Finally, not all ongoing trials are posted to the website and, as such, ClinicalTrials.gov may provide an incomplete picture of the ongoing clinical trials related to COVID-19.

We have chosen to show the earliest trial completion date, that is the “estimated primary trial completion date” (the date on which the data collection was completed for all the primary outcome measures) and not the “estimated trial completion date” (the date on which the last patient was examined or received a treatment) to be able to quickly flag trials that may have results available ahead of the completion of a trial. We have limited our search date from March 1, 2020 to September 30, 2021, as these trials address the immediate needs for evidence.

Summary

A total of 240 ongoing phase II/III, phase III, or phase IV drug trials on COVID-19 met the inclusion criteria as of December 18, 2020.1 Their sample sizes range from 20 to 16,500 patients. Most of the trials are being conducted in hospitalized adult patients, with few trials evaluating children or outpatients. By the end of December 2020, 101 trials will have reached their estimated primary completion dates. Twenty trials have Canadian study sites (as highlighted in the tables).

The ClinicalTrials.gov registry will be monitored regularly, and tables will be updated bi-weekly or when key trial data or results become available. A separate report may be initiated to evaluate and critically appraise the evidence once results are published.
