Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

Sofosbuvir has been recently recommended as a possible antiviral for COVID-19, based on structural studies and multiple alignment analysis. By comparing the positive-stranded RNA genomes of HCV and SARS-CoV-2, it has been postulated that sofosbuvir might be an optimal nucleotide analogue to repurpose for COVID-19 treatment

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Other: Sofosbuvir / Daclatsvir

A drug used in the treatment of HCV infection, given in the same dose 400mg and 60 mg respectively once daily for 14 days

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. evaluate the combined effect of Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir in treatment of patients with mild-moderate Covid-19. [it is estimated to be 2 weeks]

    The study assesses the incidence of resolution of symptoms in COVID patients after taking Sofosbuvir and Daclatasvir for 14 days by doing PCR and the result to be negative
