Guess which trials are not on hold?

That's right, Brazilian Covid Leronlimb trials.

The moderate and critical trial US registry entries were last updated January 4.

One might surmise that there have been no further updates due to no activity. It does not appear that this is the case. Hydro et al. would have us believe that the trials have been halted because Cytdoyn is out of money. f that is true, Cytdoyn is wonderfully fortunate that others choose to continue the trials gratis. Just a tad unlikely IMO.

For those who would like to look, the critical trial is:

" Um estudo, fase 3, randomizado, duplo-cego, controlado por placebo para avaliar a eficácia e segurança do Leronlimabe em combinação com o tratamento padrão para pacientes criticamente enfermos com pneumonia por coronavirus 2019 (COVID19) com necessidade de ventilação mecânica ou oxigenação por membrana extra corpórea "

and the moderate trial:

" Um estudo de fase 3, randomizado, duplo-cego, controlado por placebo para avaliar a eficácia e segurança do Leronlimabe em combinação com o tratamento padrão para pacientes hospitalizados com pneumonia por coronavírus 2019 (COVID-19 que não necessitam de ventilação mecânica ou oxigenação por membrana extracorpórea. "

The critical trial has 10 updated entries since January 4, including an update this morning for a hospital added in Braganca Paulista.

Currently there are 47 participating hospitals:

The entries highlighted in yellow are institutions for which the trial registry has been updated since January 4.



Case in Brazil have apparently peaked, but remain over 160K daily with deaths over 900.



I wish it were the case that the Long Hauler trial was underway. However, approval to treat critically ill patients should come first.

Soon
