OUTpatient Treatment of COVID-19 in Patients With Risk Factor for Poor Outcome

Plain-language summary
COVID-19 is a respiratory disease due to a novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) that causes substantial morbidity and mortality. To date, no treatment has been proved to be effective in COVID-19. Elderly patients and patients with comorbidities have the worse prognosis with a higher risk of hospitalization, ICU admission and death. The efficacy of an early outpatient treatment could be suggested but need to be confirmed. This confirmation is mandatory to improve prognosis of COVID-19 but also to avoid unsuspected deleterious effect of drugs already used in clinical practice but not based on evidence.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
