Efficacy of Tocilizumab in Patients Hospitalized with Covid-19 (VSports注册入口)
V体育官网入口 - Abstract
Background: The efficacy of interleukin-6 receptor blockade in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) who are not receiving mechanical ventilation is unclear. VSports手机版.
Methods: We performed a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial involving patients with confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, hyperinflammatory states, and at least two of the following signs: fever (body temperature >38°C), pulmonary infiltrates, or the need for supplemental oxygen in order to maintain an oxygen saturation greater than 92%. Patients were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive standard care plus a single dose of either tocilizumab (8 mg per kilogram of body weight) or placebo. The primary outcome was intubation or death, assessed in a time-to-event analysis. The secondary efficacy outcomes were clinical worsening and discontinuation of supplemental oxygen among patients who had been receiving it at baseline, both assessed in time-to-event analyses V体育安卓版. .
Results: We enrolled 243 patients; 141 (58%) were men, and 102 (42%) were women. The median age was 59. 8 years (range, 21. 7 to 85. 4), and 45% of the patients were Hispanic or Latino. The hazard ratio for intubation or death in the tocilizumab group as compared with the placebo group was 0. 83 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0. 38 to 1. 81; P = 0. 64), and the hazard ratio for disease worsening was 1. 11 (95% CI, 0. 59 to 2. 10; P = 0. 73). At 14 days, 18. 0% of the patients in the tocilizumab group and 14. 9% of the patients in the placebo group had had worsening of disease. The median time to discontinuation of supplemental oxygen was 5. 0 days (95% CI, 3. 8 to 7. 6) in the tocilizumab group and 4. 9 days (95% CI, 3. 8 to 7. 8) in the placebo group (P = 0. 69). At 14 days, 24. 6% of the patients in the tocilizumab group and 21. 2% of the patients in the placebo group were still receiving supplemental oxygen V体育ios版. Patients who received tocilizumab had fewer serious infections than patients who received placebo. .
Conclusions: Tocilizumab was not effective for preventing intubation or death in moderately ill hospitalized patients with Covid-19. Some benefit or harm cannot be ruled out, however, because the confidence intervals for efficacy comparisons were wide. (Funded by Genentech; ClinicalTrials. gov number, NCT04356937 VSports最新版本. ). .
