A Phase 1b Trial to Evaluate Safety and Effect of SAR443122 on Immune System in Severe COVID-19

• Status: Completed
• Trial end date: 2020-10-23
• Target enrollment: 0
• Participant gender: All

Summary

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on the hyperinflammatory state as measured by C-reactive protein (CRP) levels in adult patients hospitalized with severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Secondary Objectives:

• To evaluate the time to onset of effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on the hyperinflammatory state as measured by CRP levels

• To evaluate the time to onset of effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on oxygenation status

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on oxygenation status

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on total duration of supplemental oxygen requirement

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on length of ventilator support needed

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on laboratory markers of severe COVID-19

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on mortality

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on need for thrombolytic therapy

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on need for vasopressor treatment

• To evaluate the safety of SAR443122 as compared to the control arm up to End of Study

• To evaluate the effect of SAR443122 relative to the control arm on total duration without high flow supplemental oxygen requirements

• Phase: Phase 1
• Accepts Healthy Volunteers?: No

Criteria

Inclusion criteria:

• Participant must be ≥18 years and ≤80 years of age inclusive, at the time of signing the informed consent.

• Hospitalized (or documentation of a plan to admit to the hospital if the participant is in an emergency department) with evidence of COVID-19 lung disease diagnosed by chest radiograph, chest computed tomography or chest auscultation (rales, crackles) and with severe disease defined as follows: The participant requires supplemental oxygen administered by nasal cannula, simple face mask, or other similar oxygen delivery device (ie, increase in oxygen requirement following SARS-CoV-2 infection).

• SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by RT-PCR, or other commercial or public health assay in any specimen, within 3 weeks prior to randomization, and no alternative explanation for current clinical condition.

• At time of randomization, have demonstrated laboratory signs consistent with systemic inflammation.

• Male and/or female participants, including women of childbearing potential (WOCBP).

• Capable of giving signed informed consent.

Exclusion criteria:

• In the opinion of the investigator, unlikely to survive after 48 hours, or unlikely to remain at the investigational site beyond 48 hours

• Participants requiring use of invasive or non-invasive positive pressure ventilation at randomization.

• Presence of significant liver enzyme abnormalities, thrombocytopenia or anemia at screening.

• Any prior or concurrent use or plans to receive during the study period of immunomodulatory therapies (other than interventional drug) at screening.

• Use of chronic systemic corticosteroids for a non-COVID-19-related condition in a dose higher than prednisone 10 mg or equivalent per day at screening.

• Exclusion criteria related to tuberculosis (TB) and non-tuberculous mycobacterial (NTM) infections.

• Participants with suspected or known active systemic bacterial or fungal infections within 4 weeks of screening.

• Pregnant or breastfeeding women.

• In the opinion of the study investigator, might confound the results of the study or pose an undue risk to the safety of the participant.
