Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to find out if estrogen, a female sex hormone, given as a patch placed on skin of COVID19 positive or presumptive positive patients for 7 days can reduce the severity of COVID19 symptoms compared to regular care. This study has two study groups. One group will receive the study drug, a single-use Climara 25cm2 estrogen patch. The other group will receive standard of care. Participants will be asked questions about their symptoms for up 6 times in up to 45 days.


Clinical Trial Description

As the COVID19 pandemic has spread, it has been observed that adult men of all ages and older women are at higher risk of developing serious complications from infection with the virus. Animal model studies of SARS suggest that the age and sex difference in COVID19 symptom severity may be due to protective and acute actions of the female sex hormone estrogen. Animal and human studies support immune modulating effects of estrogen that are acute acting in viral infections and wound repair processes that may reduce the damaging effects of the virus on the lung and symptom severity. Our hypothesis is that a short 7 day course of estradiol delivered in a transdermal patch applied to the upper buttock in COVID19+ or presumptive positive patients will be safe and will reduce symptom severity in adult men and older women when given prior to intubation. COVID19+ and presumptive positive patients not requiring intubation will be enrolled to the study and randomized to receive an estrogen patch or standard of care. Patients will be followed up at day 1, 7, 14 and 28 for clinical symptoms and disease outcomes. ;
