Coronavirus Infection Clinical Trial
Official title:
Randomized Phase II Clinical Trial of Ruxolitinib Plus Simvastatin in the Prevention and Treatment of Respiratory Failure of COVID-19.Ruxo-Sim-20 Clinical Trial.
COVID-19's mechanism to enter the cell is initiated by its interaction with its cellular receptor, the angiotensin-converting enzyme. As a result of this union, a clathrin-mediated endocytosis process begins. This route is one of the therapeutic targets for which available drugs are being investigated in order to treat COVID-19 infection. This is one of the mechanisms blocked by drugs like ruxolitinib and chloroquine. Various drugs approved for clinical use that block the clathrin-mediated endocytosis pathway have been explored. It has been found that the best in vitro and in vivo results were obtained with statins, which also allowed generating a greater potent adaptive immune response. Therefore, statins and specifically simvastatin make it possible to block the entry process used by COVID-19, block inflammation by various mechanisms and increase the adaptive immune response. All of these processes are desirable in patients infected with COVID-19. Statins have been proposed to have beneficial effects in patients infected with MERS-COV, another coronavirus similar to COVID-19, but there have been no randomized studies supporting the use of statins in patients with COVID-19 infection. In this project we propose the combined use of one of these drugs, ruxolitinib with simvastatin, looking for a synergistic effect in the inhibition of viral entry and in the anti-inflammatory effect.
