gemfibrozil and Amyloidosis

gemfibrozil has been researched along with Amyloidosis in 2 studies

Amyloidosis: A group of sporadic, familial and/or inherited, degenerative, and infectious disease processes, linked by the common theme of abnormal protein folding and deposition of AMYLOID. As the amyloid deposits enlarge they displace normal tissue structures, causing disruption of function. Various signs and symptoms depend on the location and size of the deposits.

Trial Outcomes

All-Cause Death

Death from any cause during the observation period (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: Up to 30 days

InterventionParticipants (Count of Participants)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care19
Placebo + Usual Care22

Exploratory Hierarchical Composite Endpoint

The exploratory global rank score, or global severity score, is a nonparametric, hierarchically ranked outcome. The global rank score was generated by ranking all 701 participants on a scale of 1 to 701, from worst to best clinical outcomes. Participants were ranked by (1) time to death; (2) the number of days supported by invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); (3) The inspired concentration of oxygen/percent oxygen saturation (FiO2/SpO2) ratio area under the curve; (4) The number of days out of the hospital during the 30 day-period following randomization. (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: Up to 30 days

Interventionscore on a scale (Median)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care5.03
Placebo + Usual Care5.03

Number of Days Alive and Out of the Hospital During the 30 Days Following Randomization

Number of days that participants were alive and out of the hospital during the 30 days following randomization (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: Up to 30 days

Interventiondays (Median)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care30
Placebo + Usual Care30

Number of Days Alive, Out of the Intensive Care Unit, Free of Mechanical Ventilation/Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation, or Maximal Available Respiratory Support in the 30 Days Following Randomization

Number of days participants were alive, out of the intensive care unit, free of mechanical ventilation/extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, or maximal available respiratory support during the 30 days that followed randomization (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: Up to 30 days

Interventiondays (Mean)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care28.8
Placebo + Usual Care28.3

Primary Hierarchical Composite Endpoint

The primary endpoint of the trial is a global rank score that ranks patient outcomes according to 5 factors. The global rank score, or global severity score, is a nonparametric, hierarchically ranked outcome. The global rank score was generated by ranking all 701 participants on a scale of 1 to 701, from worst to best clinical outcomes. Participants were ranked by (1) time to death; (2) the number of days supported by invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); (3) The inspired concentration of oxygen/percent oxygen saturation (FiO2/SpO2) ratio area under the curve; (4) For participants enrolled as outpatients who are subsequently hospitalized, the number of days out of the hospital during the 30 day-period following randomization; (5) For participants enrolled as outpatients who don't get hospitalized during the 30-day observation period, the modified Borg dyspnea scale (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: 30 days

InterventionRanked Severity Score (Median)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care5.32
Placebo + Usual Care5.33

Secondary Hierarchical Composite Endpoint

The secondary global rank score, or global severity score, is a nonparametric, hierarchically ranked outcome. The global rank score was generated by ranking all 701 participants on a scale of 1 to 701, from worst to best clinical outcomes. Participants were ranked by (1) time to death; (2) the number of days supported by invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); (3) The inspired concentration of oxygen/percent oxygen saturation (FiO2/SpO2) ratio area under the curve; (4) For participants enrolled as outpatients who are subsequently hospitalized, the number of days out of the hospital during the 30 day-period following randomization; (5) For participants enrolled as outpatients who don't get hospitalized during the 30-day observation period, a COVID-19 symptom scale rating fever, cough, dyspnea, muscle aches, sore throat, loss of smell or taste, headache, diarrhea, fatigue, nausea/vomiting, chest pain (each are rated from 0-10 then summed). (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: Up to 30 days

Interventionscore on a scale (Median)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care5.05
Placebo + Usual Care5.05

Seven-category Ordinal Scale

A seven-category ordinal scale consisting of the following categories: 1, not hospitalized with resumption of normal activities; 2, not hospitalized, but unable to resume normal activities; 3, hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4, hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen; 5, hospitalized, requiring nasal high-flow oxygen therapy, noninvasive mechanical ventilation, or both; 6, hospitalized, requiring extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), invasive mechanical ventilation, or both; and 7, death. (NCT04517396)
Timeframe: At 15 days

Interventionscore on a scale (Median)
Fenofibrate + Usual Care1
Placebo + Usual Care1
