Brief summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether XPro1595 can prevent the progression of respiratory complications in COVID19 patients.

Detailed description

The trial is a Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial of INB03 in participants with pulmonary complications due to COVID-19 infection. Patients with COVID-19 infection and low blood oxygen levels with at least one high risk factor (see below) are eligible to participate in a 40-day study to determine whether INB03 can prevent the progression of pulmonary complications. Eligible participants will be randomized (1:1) to receive either INB03 + standard of care (SOC) or Placebo + SOC. Participants randomized to INB03 + SOC will receive a 1mg/kg injection of INB03 after randomization. Patients that remain in the hospital 7 days after the first dose will receive a second dose. A final safety visit will occur on Day 70.

Interventions

DRUGINB03

Patients will receive up to two once per week subcutaneous injections of 1mg/kg INB03

DRUGPlacebo

Patients will receive up to two once per week subcutaneous injections of Placebo
