colchicine (n=52) vs. standard of care (n=51)
randomized controlled trial
Colchicine
Standard of care plus initial dose of 1.5 mg (1 mg and 0.5 mg two hours after) of colchicine, followed by 0.5 mg every 12 hours during the next 7 days and 0.5 mg every 24 hours until the completion of 28 days of total treatment.
Standard of care
Both colchicine and control group patients received the recommended standard treatment in the study: dexamethasone (6 mg once a day for 10 days) in patients who required supplemental oxygen (WHO scale ≥4). Remdesivir was administered for 5 days following the Spanish Agency of Medications and Pharmaceutical Products recommendation which included: time from symptoms onset <7 days; two or more measurements of oxygen saturation below 94% on room air, respiratory rate >24 breaths/min without supplemental oxygen or Pa02/Fi02<300 (Kirby index). Tocilizumab was administered at a single dose of 600 mg and baricitinib at 4 mg/day for 14 days. The need for tocilizumab or baricitinib was established according to the physician on care criteria.

Patients who were 75 years of age or older, irrespective of current coexisting conditions, or between 65 and 74 years of age with at least one coexisting condition were identified and assessed for eligibility. At the time of screening for SARS-CoV-2 by reverse-transcriptase-polymerase-chain-reaction (RT-PCR) assay, eligible patients had had at least one of each sign or symptom in the following two categories for less than 48 hours: a temperature of at least 37.5, unexplained sweating, or chills; and dry cough, dyspnea, fatigue, myalgia, anorexia, sore throat, dysgeusia, anosmia, or rhinorrhea.

The trial was stopped early at 76% of its projected sample size because cases of Covid-19 in the trial region decreased considerably and steady enrollment of trial patients became virtually impossible.
