This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
We developed AI4CoV, a novel AI system to match thousands of COVID-19 clinical trials to patients based on each patients eligibility to clinical trials in order to help physicians select treatment options for patients. AI4CoV leveraged Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Machine Learning to parse through eligibility criteria of trials and patients clinical manifestations in their clinical notes, both presented in English text, to accomplish 92.76% AUROC on a cross-validation test with 3,156 patient-trial pairs labeled with ground truth of suitability. Our retrospective multiple-site review shows that according to AI4CoV, severe patients of COVID-19 generally have less treatment options suitable for them than mild and moderate patients and that suitable and unsuitable treatment options are different for each patient. Our results show that the general approach of AI4CoV is useful during the early stage of a pandemic when the best treatments are still unknown.
