This is the 14th ivermectin trial at ClinicalTrials.gov. Cross-posted to /r/covid19.

6mg of iveremctin will be given on days 0, 1, 7 and 8 -- the first trial with a schedule like that.

I believe this is the first trial using cholecalciferol, a form of vitamin D. Patients will get 400IU twice a day for 30 days. Seems like a low dose of D, but I take a different form (6000IU of D3) so who knows?

Azithromycin is an antibiotic. I believe it appears in other ivermectin trials. (I need to write up a document about the various trials's treatments so I can see what's new and different.)

Not randomized. Only 30 patients. The control group might exist; the description is confusing.

The best news is the completion date: June 10. That, like, two weeks from now!

Here is a news story with some other details, esp. the study started on March 15.
