Official Title
A Multicenter Randomized Trial to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Camostat Mesylate for the Treatment of SARS-CoV-2 Infection - COVID-19 in Ambulatory Adult Patients (CAMOVID)
Brief Summary

The overall objective of the study is to determine the therapeutic effect and tolerance of Camostat mesylate, compared to placebo in adult patients with ambulatory COVID-19 disease, presenting with risk factors of severe COVID-19. Camostat mesylate is a serine protease TMPRSS2 (Transmembrane Serine Protease 2) inhibitor which has been successfully and safely used to treat pancreatitis-associated pain and post-operative reflux oesophagitis in Japan. More recently, it has been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV-2 viral entry and reduce infection of human primary pneumocytes and lung cell lines. Camostat mesylate or placebo will be administered to consenting adult patients with virologically confirmed COVID-19, not requiring initial hospitalization. All patients will receive standard of care along with randomized treatments. Outcomes of included patients will be compared between the 2 groups.
