Background: There is a critical need to develop novel therapies for COVID-19.
Methods: We conducted a phase 2, multicentre, placebo-controlled, double-blind, randomised trial; hospitalised patients with hypoxemic respiratory failure due to COVID-19 and at least one poor prognostic biomarker, were given sirolimus (6 mg on Day 1 followed by 2 mg daily for 14 days or hospital discharge, whichever happens first) or placebo, in a 2:1 randomization scheme favouring sirolimus. Primary outcome was the proportion of patients alive and free from advanced respiratory support measures at Day 28.
Background: A critical need exists to develop remission-inducing therapies for lymphangioleiomyomatosis.
Research Question: Is the addition of resveratrol safe and more efficacious than sirolimus alone in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis?
Study Design And Methods: We conducted a phase 2, dose-escalating, open-label trial of resveratrol in patients with lymphangioleiomyomatosis receiving a stable regimen of sirolimus. Resveratrol was started at 250 mg/d and escalated every 8 weeks to maximum dose of 1,000 mg/d over 24 weeks.
