A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • Adults aged 18 years or older.
  • Residing in the study area (defined in each respective CSA) for the duration of trial participation.
  • Persistent PASC signs and symptoms, including fatigue and/or PEM, for a period of at least 12 weeks after the onset of a SARS-CoV-2 infection. The symptoms were not present prior to the infection, but may have partially subsided and resurged after the infection.
  • Self-reported confirmation of having had a SARS-CoV-2 infection by: a. Positive SARS-CoV-2 nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT), such as PCR; b. Positive SARS-CoV-2 rapid diagnostic test, including home-administered tests; c. COVID-19 diagnosis by a medical specialist (GP or in-hospital), based on the above or other clinical tests and assessments.
  • Willing and able to provide informed consent via e-consent
  • Willing and able to perform trial procedures

You likely can't join if

  • Having been diagnosed with (exacerbation of) a chronic disease that can account for the onset of the PASC-like symptoms.
  • Being hospitalised or institutionalised at screening. Patients can be rescreened after discharge.
  • Presence of a serious medical condition that would prevent completion of follow-up.
  • Currently enrolled, or having been enrolled within the last 30 days, in any other study where that study’s interventions or procedures may affect RECLAIM outcomes or procedures. Individuals can be rescreened after at least 30 days have passed since participation in such a study has been completed.
  • Applicable to all potential participants within one trial domain: The participant cannot be randomised to at least one IP arm and its control arm within a trial domain due to (refer to relevant TSAs for details): a. Known hypersensitivity to an active IP ingredient or excipient; b. Receiving a treatment that is contraindicated to a trial IP; c. Already using a trial IP, or a drug in the same drug class as a trial IP, outside of the trial; d. Any other reason why a trial IP cannot be used, such as (risk of) pregnancy or breastfeeding. During screening, these criteria will be assessed by questioning the patient, verification of prescription drug and contraceptive use in medical and/or pharmacy records, and verification of other exclusion criteria if indicated in the TSA. The absence of pregnancy in women of childbearing potential will be confirmed by a negative urine or serum pregnancy test. Refer to section 8.2.1. for more details about pregnancy exclusion at inclusion and pregnancy prevention during follow-up.
