RCT low-risk patients in Thailand comparing HCQ, darunavir/ritonavir, and zinc, with ivermectin and zinc, showing no significant differences. All patients recovered. 65% of patients were asymptomatic at baseline, 26% were PCR- at baseline, and 84% were culture negative at baseline. The percentage of patients symptomatic at baseline was 15% higher for ivermectin.
The reported trial id NCT02045069 (history) is a 2014 dengue trial with a status of recruiting [clinicaltrials.gov]. Authors claim both treatments had no clinical benefit, however all patients were discharged from quarantine as planned between 10-14 days, and there was no control group. Authors claim there was "no clear evidence of antiviral effects for the control arm", however there was no control arm. Authors indicate that all patients were discharged within 14 days, however they report that one patient had Ct 22.11 at day 12.

The objective is to determine the safety and the efficacies of two treatment regimens against SARS‑CoV‑2 infection. Methods: We conducted an open‑labeled, randomized, controlled trial to compare the efficacy between a 3‑day course of once‑daily high‑dose oral ivermectin plus zinc sulfate (Group A) and a combination of HQ, darunavir/ritonavir, and zinc sulfate (HQ + antiretroviral, Group B) for 5 days in asymptomatic or mild SARS‑CoV‑2 infection. The study period was between December 2020 and April 2021. Results: Overall, 113 patients were randomized and analyzed (57 patients in Group A and 56 patients in Group B). The median duration to achieve the virological outcome of either undetected or cycle threshold (Ct) for N gene of SARS‑CoV‑2 by real‑time polymerase chain reaction was 6 days (95% confidence interval [CI] 5.3–6.7) versus 7 days (95% CI: 5.4–8.6) in Group A and Group B, respectively (P = 0.419) in the modified intention‑to‑treat population. All patients were discharged from hospital quarantine as planned. Two patients in Group A and one patient in Group B were considered clinically worsening and received 10 days of favipiravir treatment. There was no serious adverse event found in both groups. Conclusion: We demonstrated that both treatment regimens were safe, but both treatment regimens had no virological or clinical benefit. Based on this result and current data, there is no supporting evidence for the clinical benefit of ivermectin for coronavirus‑19.
