Inclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria: Participants are eligible to be included in the study only if all of the following general inclusion (GI) criteria apply: • Age = 50 years • Informed consent by the subject or legally authorized representative • Laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection, as determined by PCR or other commercial or public health assay in any specimen, no more than 4 days prior to the study drug administration • Peripheral oxygen saturation = 94% on room air and not requiring supplemental oxygen • Onset of symptom is no more than 4 days prior to the study drug administration. Onset time of symptom is defined as the time when the patient experienced the presence of at least one of the following (but not limited to) SARS-CoV-2 infection-associated symptom (FDA, September 2020): o Nasal obstruction or congestion o Cough o Fever >37.3 °C o Sore throat o Body pain or muscle pain o Headache o Loss of taste or smell o Nausea or vomiting o Diarrhoea Are the trial subjects under 18? no Number of subjects for this age range: F.1.2 Adults (18-64 years) yes F.1.2.1 Number of subjects for this age range 460 F.1.3 Elderly (>=65 years) yes F.1.3.1 Number of subjects for this age range 800

| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: This study is a phase 3, multicentre, randomized, adaptive trial to investigate the efficacy of bamlanivimab / etesevimab (700 mg / 1400 mg) and casirivimab / imdevimab (1200 mg / 1200 mg) given at an early stage. (within 4 days of onset of symptoms) of COVID-19 (symptomatic stage without the need for oxygen supplementation or hospitalization) in preventing disease progression (need for oxygen therapy supplementation and / or hospitalization and / or death) in patients over 50 years of age not included in the administration criteria indicated by AIFA.;Secondary Objective: Secondary objetives of the study are the following: - To compare the efficacy of experimental treatments versus placebo with respect to other relevant clinical endpoints. - To compare the effectiveness of experimental treatments compared to placebo with regard to laboratory endpoints. - To compare the efficacy of experimental treatments versus placebo with regard to negative result of the nasopharyngeal swab for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. - To compare the efficacy of experimental treatments versus placebo with respect to patient-reported endpoints.;Primary end point(s): COVID-19 disease progression, defined as (1) hospitalization or (2) need for supplemental oxygen therapy at home or (3) death, within 14 days of randomization;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Within 14 days of randomization | — |
