To evaluate the efficacy and safety of hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine, with or without azithromycin, in treating hospitalized COVID-19 patients. Data from randomized and observational studies were included in a random-effects meta-analysis. Primary outcomes included time to negative conversion of SARS-CoV-2 tests, length of stay, mortality, incidence of mechanical ventilation, time to normalization of body temperature, incidence of adverse events and incidence of QT prolongations. Fifty-one studies (n = 61,221) were included. Hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine showed no efficacy in all primary efficacy outcomes, but was associated with increased odds of QT prolongations. Due to a lack of efficacy and increased odds of cardiac adverse events, hydroxychloroquine/chloroquine should not be used for treating hospitalized COVID-19 patients.
评估羟氯喹/氯喹联合或不联合阿奇霉素治疗住院的2019冠状病毒病(COVID-19)患者的疗效和安全性。随机和观察性研究的数据纳入随机效应荟萃分析。主要结局包括严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)检测转阴时间、住院时间、死亡率、机械通气发生率、体温恢复正常时间、不良事件发生率和QT间期延长发生率。纳入了51项研究(n = 61221)。羟氯喹/氯喹在所有主要疗效结局中均未显示出疗效,但与QT间期延长几率增加相关。由于缺乏疗效且心脏不良事件几率增加,羟氯喹/氯喹不应被用于治疗住院的COVID-19患者。
