RCT late stage severe condition (93% SOFA ≥ 2, 96% APACHE ≥ 8) high comorbidity hospitalized patients in Mexico with 36 low dose ivermectin and 37 control patients not finding significant differences. NCT04391127 (history).
Another study reports results on a larger group of patients in the same hospital, showing ivermectin mortality RR 0.81 [0.53-1.24] [Guzman].
Questions have been raised about this study and the early termination of the study and discontinuation of treatments, because the hospital statistics show a dramatically lower (~75%) case fatality rate during the period of the study [web.archive.org] (data from [gob.mx]).

Several other inconsistencies have been reported [Chamie].
Although the data from this study is reported to be available and has been shared with an anti-treatment group, independent researchers have been unable to obtain the data for verification [Chamie, twitter.com].
This study is excluded in the after exclusion results of meta analysis: major inconsistencies reported and the data is no longer available, although the authors state that it is available, and have shared it with an anti-treatment group.

Correspondence: mariogzg@hotmail.com (M.G.G.); dr.jmag@gmail.com (J.M.A.G.) Abstract: During the first year of the COVID-19 pandemic, unauthorized drugs were widely used. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine are drugs that inhibit viral replication in vitro and that have been used in several medical centers. This clinical trial analyzes their efficacy in hospitalized patients with moderate COVID-19. Methods: This a controlled, clinical, randomized, double-blind trial that included hospitalized patients with COVID-19-induced pneumonia, without severe respiratory failure. Patients were randomized to one of three groups: Group 1—hydroxychloroquine, 400 mg every 12 h on the first day and, subsequently, 200 mg every 12 h for 4 days; Group 2—ivermectin, 12 mg or 18 mg, according to patient weight; and Group 3—placebo. At inclusion, blood samples for arterial blood gases and biochemical markers were obtained. The primary outcome was established as the length of stay due to patient improvement and the rate of respiratory deterioration or death. Results: During the month of August 2020, the admission of patients requiring hospitalization mostly encompassed cases with severe respiratory failure, so we ended the recruitment process and analyzed the data that was available at the time. One hundred and six (106) patients with an average age of 53 yrs (±16.9) were included, with a greater proportion of males (n = 66, 62.2%). Seventy-two percent (72%) (n = 76) had an associated comorbidity. Ninety percent (90%) of patients were discharged due to improvement (n = 96). The average duration of hospitalization was 6 days (IQR, 3–10). No difference in hospitalization duration was found between the treatment groups (Group1: 7 vs. Group 2: 6 vs. Group 3: 5, p = 0.43)..
