Participant Flow

Participants were enrolled from a variety of different facilities where (a) a clinician can evaluate the patient for inclusion and exclusion criteria, and (b) where blood samples can be arranged to be sent for D-dimer, hsCRP, calculated creatinine clearance, and platelet count. COVID-19 testing needs to be confirmed positive within the past 14 days. Serum or urine pregnancy test results will be required for women of childbearing potential before starting study treatment.
