Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Ventilator Free Days | Day 1 through Day 28 | Ventilator-free days were defined as the number of days from Day 1 through Day 28 on which a participant breathed without assistance, if the period of unassisted breathing lasted at least 24 consecutive hours and the participant did not die within 28 days from the first dose of the study drug. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Percentage of Participants With Complete Response | Day 1 through Day 28 | Complete response was defined as being alive and never requiring mechanical ventilator support (at any point while on study) through Day 28. |
| Number of Participants Who Died Between Day 1 Through Day 28 | Day 1 through Day 28 | — |
| Number of Participants Reported Lowest Score on National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) Ordinal Scale | Day 1 through Day 28 | The NIAID ordinal scale clinical status was defined as the lowest score achieved for that day, the lowest NIAID score from Day 1 through Day 28 for each participant was reported. NIAID ordinal assessment levels are reported by using the following 8 point scale, where a higher score is a better outcome: 1) death, 2) hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), 3) hospitalized, on non-invasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen devices, 4) hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen, 5) hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care (COVID-19-related or otherwise), 6) hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - no longer requires ongoing medical care, 7) not hospitalized, limitation on activities and/or requiring home oxygen, and, 8) not hospitalized, no limitations on activities. |
| Number of Participants With Treatment-Emergent Serious Adverse Events (TE-SAE) | Day 1 through Day 60 | An SAE is any AE from this study that results in one of the following outcomes: death that is not related to COVID-19 or a sequela of COVID-19 or death that is considered by the investigator to be related to study drug, prolonged inpatient hospitalization or re-hospitalization life-threatening experience (that is, immediate risk of dying), persistent or significant disability/incapacity, congenital anomaly/birth defect, important medical events that may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the participant or may require intervention to prevent one of the other SAE outcomes. |
| Number of Participants With Any Treatment Emergent Adverse Event (TEAE) | Day 1 through Day 60 | TEAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that emerges during a defined treatment period, having been absent pre-treatment, or worsens relative to the pretreatment state, and does not necessarily had a causal relationship with the study treatment. |
| Length of Hospitalization | Day 1 through Day 28 | Days of participants hospitalization. |
