Summary

Multifocal interstitial pneumonia represents the most common cause of admission in intensive care units and death in SARS-CoV2 infections. In our Hospital, similarly to what reported in literature, up to 25% of admitted patients with pneumonitis requires mechanical ventilation or oro-tracheal intubation within 5-10 days. No established treatment is available for this condition. Preliminary evidence is accumulating about the efficacy of an aggressive treatment of the corona virus-induced inflammation and, in particular, investigators believe that blocking JAK1 is clinically rewarding in down-regulating IL-6 driven inflammation in patients with corona-virus infection. Thus, investigators designed a randomized controlled trial to test the hypothesis that adding Tofacitinib to the standard treatment in the early phase of COVID related pneumonitis could prevent the development of severe respiratory failure needing mechanical ventilation.
