Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
The phase II clinical trial, with three arms and at a rate of 77 patients per arm, received the approval of the National Committee for Ethics and Health Research. This is a non-inferiority test aimed at comparing the therapeutic impact in "add on" to Azithromycin, phytomedicines versus Hydroxychloroquine in asymptomatic COVID-19 patients.
After 10 days of treatment, viral clearance and symptom progression will be assessed on days 3, 6 and 14. Clinical, paraclinical and laboratory tests will be performed throughout the 3-month trial. Ethical and deontological considerations will be applied

Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The comparison between the three cohorts will be made using either the Anova test for continuous variables or the chi-square test for categorical variables. The rate of change over time of virologic clearance, fever and other symptoms values as well as the differences for these rates between treatment arms will be tested using mixed-effects modeling.
The biological samples will be stored at the biobank of the National Institute of Public Health of Guinea.
