Abstract excerpt
The therapeutic target of COVID-19 is focused on controlling inflammation and preventing fibrosis. Collagen-polyvinylpyrrolidone (collagen-PVP) and pirfenidone have the ability to control the cytokine storms observed in rheumatic and fibrotic disorders. Here, we explore separately their therapeutic effects on the early treatment of 26 patients with severe COVID-19, compared to 10 controls treated with dexamethason...
