For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

| Hydroxychloroquine | Participants randomized to the HCQ arm will receive HCQ 400mg po BID x 1 day, then 200mg po BID x 4 days. The drug dose (2.4 gm over 5 days) falls at the lower end of doses proposed in various international trials, but it has proven in vitro efficacy, with a ratio of lung tissue trough concentrations to the EC50 (effective concentration to suppress 50% of viral activity) of \>20.

| Placebo | Those randomized to placebo will receive a placebo to be taken on the same schedule. Placebo oral tablet: Placebo to be taken on the same schedule as HCQ. | 0 | None | 6 | 183 | 0 | 183 | View |
