Summary of the Proposed Research:

We are requesting access to the dataset for the purpose of conducting the COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) clinical trial data utilization to develop external control datasets in COVID-19 therapeutics development study. Such investigation is necessary to expedite the development of novel therapeutics against COVID-19. In our study, we tried to create an external control group through propensity score matching from previous COVID-19 clinical studies. Propensity score matching (PSM) is a experimental method in which the researcher uses statistical techniques to construct an artificial control group by matching each treated unit with a non-treated unit of similar characteristics. Using these matches, the researcher can estimate the impact of an intervention. If an external control group is created and evaluated through this study, when developing a COVID-19 treatment using external control group in the future, the time and cost of research for developing a COVID-19 treatment can be reduced and accelerated.
