Detailed Description
This is an open-label, non-randomized study to evaluate anti-malarial/anti-infective single-agents and combination therapies for patients with confirmed COVID-19 infection requiring therapy as determined by risk factors for complication (age, comorbid illness) or the presence of respiratory compromise. The first combination to be evaluated is atovaquone/azithromycin. Other combinations may be added to the study at future amendments as information of potential benefit arises. The first part of the study will enroll 25 evaluable male and female patients 18 years of age or older with confirmed COVID-19 infection.
