Clinical Trial Summary

Although its safety and efficacy in the COVID-19 patient population are still unclear, tocilizumab is one of treatment. Tocilizumab is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved IL-6 receptor antagonist widely used to treat CRS secondary to the chimeric antigen receptor T cell. In this study the investigators will evaluate the efficacy of Tocilizumab, an IL-6 antagonist administered in the early period in intensive care patients with COVID-19 pneumonia followed by hypoxic and systemic inflammation is predominant, but who do not support mechanical ventilation.


Clinical Trial Description

With this study, the investigators will evaluate the efficacy of Tocilizumab, an IL-6 antagonist administered in the early period in intensive care patients with COVID-19 pneumonia followed by hypoxic and systemic inflammation is predominant, but who do not support mechanical ventilation. With this study, those with signs of hypoxia and systemic inflammation followed by COVID-19 pneumonia (SpO2 <90% on room air together with the elevation of any two of the systemic inflammatory markers such as CRP, LDH and Ferritin) and / or acute bilateral infiltrates on chest radiograph and tocilizumab the patients who received treatment and those who received standard therapy will be compared. In the study, cases followed up with COVID-19 pneumonia and respiratory failure between March 2020 and March 2021 will be retrospectively evaluated. Tocilizumab was applied as 400 mg - 800 mg iv (depending on weight). A second dose could be given 12-24 h later if the patient's condition had not improved. Primary end point was determined as intensive care mortality. ;
