Brief Summary: An International Multi-Centre Randomised Adaptive Platform Clinical Trial to Assess the Clinical, Virological and Immunological Outcomes in Patients with SARS-CoV-2 Infection (COVID-19).
Detailed Description: ASCOT is an investigator-initiated, multi-centre, open-label, randomised controlled, Bayesian, adaptive platform trial. The objective of ASCOT is to identify the regimen (combination of interventions) associated with the highest chance of improving clinical outcomes in adults hospitalised with COVID-19. Platform trials allow multiple questions to be evaluated simultaneously and sequentially within the platform, and evaluate interaction between different treatment options, to achieve the goal of determining the optimal combination of treatments for the disease as rapidly as possible. Study treatments are categorised into different treatment domains. The adaptive nature of the trial means treatments within a domain or an entire domain can be removed or added based on accruing data analysed at frequent intervals or based on external evidence. \[Domain Closed\] Intervention domain A (antiviral): Participants will be randomised to receive either i) standard of care without nafamostat; or ii) standard of care with nafamostat \[Never Opened\] Intervention domain B (antibody): Participants will be randomised to receive either i) standard of care without hyperimmune globulin; or ii) standard of care with hyperimmune globulin \[Domain Closed\] Intervention domain C (anticoagulation): Participants will be randomised to receive either i) standard dose thromboprophylaxis; or ii) intermediate dose thromboprophylaxis; or iii) therapeutic anticoagulation Intervention domain Q (Antiviral II): Participants will be randomised to receive either i) no antiviral agents; or ii) oral nirmatrelvir-ritonavir; or iii) intravenous remdesivir iiii) oral nirmatrelvir-ritonavir + Intravenous remdesivir
