The novel coronavirus designated SARS CoV-2, and the disease caused by this virus designated COVID-19. No treatment is available for early disease stages and non-hospitalized patients to date. This trial focusses on SARS-CoV-2 positive patients with pre-existing risk factors for a moderate or severe COVID-19 disease course. MedDRA version: 23.0 Level: LLT Classification code 10053983 Term: Corona virus infection System Organ Class: 100000004862 MedDRA version: 23.0 Level: LLT Classification co

| Main Objective: The working hypothesis to be tested in the RES-Q HR study is that the early use of camostat mesylate reduces the likelihood of disease progression to modified WHO stages 4-8 in SARS-CoV-2 positive adult patients at high risk of moderate or severe COVID-19 progression. The primary endpoint of the study is the cumulative number of individuals who progressed to or beyond category 4 on the modified WHO COVID-19 ordinal scale within 28 days after randomization.;Secondary Objective: % of patients with at least 1 COVID-19-related medically visit (incl. telemedicine/phone) through day 28; Cumulative no. in the SoC+treatment arm vs. SoC+placebo in WHO categories 4-8 by day 8,14,56 & 90; Cumulative no. in the SoC+treatment arm vs. SoC+placebo in WHO categories 3 by day 8,14,28,56 & 90; "Event-free” survival at day 90 & evaluation of all-cause mortality at day 90 using Kaplan-Meier; The proportion of patients with remdesivir therapy & WHO status at initiation of remdesivir; The proportion of patients on dexamethasone therapy & WHO status at baseline dexamethasone; % of patients with novel COVID-19- associated symptoms, Time to resolution of COVID-19 related symptoms; Time to first negative SARS-CoV-2-PCR ; Duration of oxygen therapy (days); % of participants in each group with need for mechanical ventilation (& ventilation days); Duration of hospital stay (days), duration in intensive care (days); All-cause mortality at day 28 SARS-CoV-2 genetic variants;Primary end point(s): The primary endpoint of the study is the number of individuals whose clinical status is on the COVID-19 modified WHO ordinal scale = 4 up to and including day 28.;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Cumulative number of persons in the SoC+treatment arm versus SoC+placebo in WHO category 3 by day 28 | — |

| Secondary end point(s): • Percentage of patients with at least one COVID-19-related medically attended visit through day 28. These include telemedicine/phone visits, in-person physician-visits, emergency department visits, and hospitalization. • Cumulative number of persons in the SoC+treatment arm versus SoC+placebo in WHO categories 4-8 by day 8, day 14, day 56 and day 90 • Cumulative number of persons in the SoC+treatment arm versus SoC+placebo in WHO category 3 by day 8, day 14, day 28, day 56 and day 90 • "Event-free” (not hospitalized, no COVID-19 associated long-term effects such secondary sclerosing cholangitis, pulmonary disease, no reinfection) survival at day 90 and evaluation of all-cause mortality at day 90 using Kaplan-Meier • The proportion of patients with remdesivir therapy and WHO status at initiation of remdesivir • The proportion of patients on dexamethasone therapy and WHO status at baseline dexamethasone • Percentage of patients with novel COVID-19-associated symptoms after enrolment • Time to resolution of COVID-19-related symptoms (e.g. fever) • Time to first negative SARS-CoV-2-PCR • Duration of oxygen therapy (in days) • Frequency of occurrence of COVID-19 pneumonia • Percentage of participants in each group with need for mechanical ventilation (and ventilation days) • Duration of hospital stay (in days), duration in intensive care/IMC (in days) • All-cause mortality at day 28 • Cumulative incidence of SAEs per group within 90 days follow up • Cumulative incidence of grade 3/4 AEs per group • SARS-CoV-2 antibody concentrations (IgA, IgG, NT) in serum on baseline, day 8, day 14, day 90 • SARS-CoV-2 genetic variants (at baseline) and accumulation of variants of concern (VOC) during treatment period (at last positive PCR test) • Change of Quality of life from baseline to day 28, day 90 (VAS, SF-12);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Results of study visits day 8, day 14, day 28, day 56 and day 90 after inclusion into the st | — |
