We are pleased to announce that RSUP Dr. Sardjito is the latest site to recruit into the world’s largest prophylaxis study (nearly 4000 recruits), which still aims to answer the important question- do Chloroquine and Hydroxychloroquine prevent COVID-19.

The results of this study can still be beneficial to those who are not vaccinated around the world, if immunity wanes and if new variants come into circulation with decreased vaccine efficacy.

For more information on this research, please contact utsamani.cintyamena@mail.ugm.ac.id

Patient-centred research is the core of our research activities, spanning 5 research units and over 50 research sites in Asia and Africa.

The COPCOV study is open and recruiting in Niamey, Niger. The study is currently active in 12 other African sites in 6 countries and with >2,400 participants at last count, aims to help answer the question as to the role of HCQ in prevention of COVID-19.

We are delighted that the team in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia have begun recruitment at the ALERT Hospital!!

COPCOV has now recruited more than 1,500 participants, but there remain more sites and countries still to start! Thank you to all the participants, who through their contribution to research, are helping answer an important question.

Côte d’Ivoire have now begun recruitment and the study total is now >1000 participants. Amazing effort from all those involved but still much to be done!

Congratulations to sites in Benin and Indonesia for enrolling participants into the COPCOV study this week!! No drugs have been shown to prevent COVID-19. It remains important to know one way or another for those without current access to vaccines, if vaccine escape mutants establish themselves and for future pandemics.

Congratulations to the Aga Khan University team in Pakistan who began recruitment again earlier this week and got off to a flying start! We still hope to definitively answer the question whether hydroxychloroquine can prevent COVID-19 while most of the world remains unvaccinated, and if vaccine escape mutants make vaccinated individuals vulnerable again.

Congratulations to the COPCOV CVD-Mali team who began recruitment yesterday!

With 0.3% of vaccines having gone to low-income countries, preventative drugs remain desperately needed and more than a year into the pandemic we still do not know if hydroxychloroquine can prevent COVID-19.

Félicitations à l'équipe du CVD-Mali qui a lancé hier le recrutement pour l'étude COPCOV!

Avec 0,3% des vaccins envoyés dans des pays à faible revenu, les médicaments préventifs restent désespérément nécessaires et plus d'un an après le début de la pandémie, nous ne savons toujours pas si l'hydroxychloroquine peut être utilisée dans la prévention du COVID-19.
