There has also been some media coverage of the COLCORONA study, which is not yet peer-reviewed. Researchers found that the rate of death and hospitalization was lower in non-hospitalized, high-risk COVID-19 patients who got colchicine compared to those who did not (4.7% vs. 5.8%, respectively). The need for mechanical ventilation was also lower in the colchicine group (0.5% vs. 1.0%). However, these findings were not statistically significant, meaning they could have happened due to random chance.
