Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to receive Colchicine plus current care per UCLA treating physicians versus current care per UCLA treating physicians alone (control arm). Importantly, this adaptive trial design allows for patients in either study arm to receive other investigational drugs for COVID-19 as new science emerges.
