In computer-based simulations, Famotidine has been identified as a potential inhibitor of the 3-chymotrypsin-like protease (3CLpro). In a propensity score matched retrospective cohort study a significantly reduced risk for death or intubation (adjusted hazard ratio 0.43, 95% confidence interval 0.21-0.88) was identified for patients with COVID-19 who were taking Famotidine before or at the point of hospital admission. Some individuals have self-medicated with Famotidine while being outpatients with COVID-19. This study is aimed at collecting patient reported outcome measures from such individuals.'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'ALL', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'minimumAge': '18 Years', 'samplingMethod': 'NON_PROBABILITY_SAMPLE', 'studyPopulation': 'The study allows participants from all demographics.', 'healthyVolunteers': False, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\nAge \\>18 years; Ability to give written informed consent; Confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis; Famotidine use during COVID-19 illness\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\nnone'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04389567', 'briefTitle': 'Famotidine Outpatient COVID-19 Treatment Study', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Northwell Health'}, 'officialTitle': 'Famotidine Use in Non-hospitalized Patients With COVID-19: A Case Series', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '1605914-1'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'label': 'Patients with COVID-19 taking Famotidine', 'description': 'Use of any dose of oral Famotidine during period of COVID-19', 'interventionNames': ['Drug: Famotidine']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Famotidine', 'type': 'DRUG', 'description': 'Use of oral Famotidine.', 'armGroupLabels': ['Patients with COVID-19 taking Famotidine']}]}, 'contactsLocationsModule': {'locations': [{'zip': '11724', 'city': 'Cold Spring Harbor', 'state': 'New York', 'country': 'United States', 'facility': 'Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory', 'geoPoint': {'lat': 40.87149, 'lon': -73.45679}}], 'overallOfficials': [{'name': 'David A Tuveson, MD PhD', 'role': 'PRINCIPAL_INVESTIGATOR', 'affiliation': 'Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory'}]}, 'ipdSharingStatementModule': {'ipdSharing': 'NO', 'description': 'Individual participant data (IPD) will not be shared with other researchers.
