What is this study about?

REMAP-CAP is an international (15 countries) adaptive platform trial that was specifically designed to be employed in a pandemic to evaluate multiple interventions simultaneously in critically ill patients.

The trial is modular so that new domains (groups of similar treatment options) can be added over time.

Current domains include

• Antivirals (four interventions: (1) no antiviral; (2) lopinavir/ritonavir; (3) hydroxychloroquine; (4) lopinavir/ritonavir and hydroxychloroquine combination)
• immunomodulation (five interventions: (1) no immune modulation (2) interferon beta 1a (3) interleukin 1 receptor antagonist [anakinra] (4 and 5) interleukin 6 inhibition [tocilizumab and sarilumab])
• Corticosteroids (three interventions: (1) no steroids; (2) steroids for 7 days (3) steroids if shock present)
• Immunoglobulin therapy (two interventions: (1) no immunoglobulin; (2) convalescent plasma)
• Therapeutic anticoagulation (two interventions: (1) local standard venous thromboprophylaxis (2) therapeutic anticoagulation with intravenous unfractionated heparin or subcutaneous low molecular weight heparin)
