Keywords
COVID-19, Coronavirus, Drug Studies, Infectious Diseases, SARS-CoV-2
Summary

This study will repurpose medications that have already been approved for use by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for other indications to treat non-hospitalized patients that are at least 30 years old with mild to moderate COVID-19. The effectiveness of reducing COVID-19 symptoms will be evaluated by comparing the medication to a placebo or fake treatment with no therapeutic value. Participation will last about 180-days and all study visits are designed to be performed over the phone or remotely. Participants will be compensated for their time and participation in this research study.

PRagmatic EValuation of evENTs And Benefits of Lipid-lowering in oldEr adults (PREVENTABLE)

Date Added

PRO Number
Pro00125689
Researcher
Leslie Lenert

List of Studies


Keywords
Cholesterol, Dementia, Drug Studies, Geriatrics, Healthy Volunteer Studies, Heart, Memory Loss, Stroke Recovery
Summary

The purpose of this research study is to determine if an already FDA approved drug called atorvastatin can help adults, age 75 or older, live well for longer by preventing dementia, disability, or heart disease. Participants will be assigned by chance to receive either atorvastatin (study drug) or a matching placebo (a tablet that looks like atorvastatin but does not contain any medicine). Study engagement may last up to five years and involves in clinic and/or remote visits, survey questions, potential blood draws, in addition to memory and physical tests. After the first 1-2 visits performed in clinic or remote, the study team will follow-up via phone on a yearly basis to see how participants are doing. Participants will be compensated for their time and participation in this research study.
