Brief summary

At present there is no approved drug treatment for Covid-19. In this study we plan to investigate if an experimental drug called IMU-838 (vidofludimus calcium) can improve your symptoms, prevent worsening that would initiate further treatments such as ventilation, and can lower your virus number if given in addition to your doctor's choice of standard therapy. We will also test if IMU-838 has any side effects and measure the level of IMU 838 in your blood. Experimental drug means that it is not yet authorized for marketing in your country. To date approximately 600 individuals have received IMU-838 (or a drug similar to IMU-838 that contains the same active substance as IMU-838) in research studies.

Detailed description

The trial consists of a Phase 2 proof-of-concept phase (Part 1) with the option to extend enrollment (without interruption) to Phase 3 (Expansion Phase, Part 2). This trial is a multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized, parallel-group trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IMU-838 as addition to investigator's choice of SoC treatment in patients with COVID-19. Eligible patients will be centrally randomized 1:1 to twice-daily (BID) oral 22.5 mg IMU-838 (45 mg/day + SoC) or placebo (+ SoC). Randomization will be stratified by age (\< or \>=65 years) and antiviral therapy (no antivirals, Hydroxychloroquine and Chloroquine, all other antivirals). Adaptive sequential trial design and overall trial design The trial uses an adaptive sequential design. An IDMC will review unblinded data and provide the Sponsor with recommendations regarding modifications of sample size and trial conduct. A 1st interim analysis (IA1) will be performed after approximately 200 patients have completed the trial (either as scheduled or prematurely), while enrollment continues. If no activity of IMU 838 is observed by the IDMC in this IA, further patient enrollment will be stopped, and a final analysis of Part 1 will be performed (FA1). It is expected that the final analysis of Part 1 will include approximately 230 patients. If the IA1 results indicate activity of IMU-838 in COVID-19, the trial may be extended to Part 2 with a revised sample size derived by the IDMC based on IA1 results and with possible other trial adjustments. If the trial is extended into Part 2, a 2nd IA (IA2) is planned after approximately two-thirds of patients (based on the overall global sample size \[Part 1 and Part 2 combined\]) have been enrolled to potentially adjust sample size and other trial features if needed. The final analysis of the trial (FA2) will then be done after all patients have completed Part 2. In addition, an early interim safety analysis will be performed and evaluated by the IDMC after 30 patients have been enrolled to assess unblinded safety data. Further safety analyses can be initiated at any time by the IDMC or Sponsor when new safety signals are identified within this or other trials of IMU-838. Screening Patients can be screened for a maximum of 2 days (from Day -2 to Day 0) and eligible patients will be randomized on Day 0 and treated with IMP + SoC for 14 days. It is encouraged to screen potential participants immediately at the day of hospitalization (including informed consent, assessment of inclusion/exclusion criteria, screening laboratory tests all done locally, assessment of clinical and blood gas criteria) and randomize patients on the same day (Day 0). To assess eligibility criteria, existing local laboratory values obtained within 48 hours of randomization can also be used, except for testing of positive status of SARS-CoV-2 infection where a 4-day window is allowed. IMP administration should start as quickly as possible after randomization and first IMP intended to be given in the evening of the screening day (Day 0). Blinded Treatment period (Day 0 to Day 13) and Day 14 (end-of-treatment) The first dose of IMP (2 tablets) should always be given on Day 0 (allowed range for first dose: 12:00 noon on Day 0 to 02:00 a.m.). All further IMP doses are 1 tablet each in the morning and evening. Information about the status and patient care are continuously obtained and documented once or twice daily. After the last IMP dose in the evening of Day 13, the end-of-treatment assessments will be done on Day 14. Blood sampling for IMU-838 trough values must be performed in the morning around the time the morning dose was usually taken by the respective patient. Patients may then continue to receive SoC without any further restrictions on concomitant medications as during the 14-day BT period . Day 28 Visit (EoS) The patient should return for the final trial visit on Day 28 (EoS). If IMP is prematurely discontinued for any reason, the EoS visit should always be conducted on Day 28 and no earlier EoS should be performed. If patients withdraw from IMP prematurely, they should be encouraged to allow the EoS visit as part of the follow-up. If the patient dies during the trial, the investigator should indicate that this visit was not performed. However, even if no EoS visit was performed, information about patient status should be reported on the EoS page in the case report form. If the patient refuses any EoS visit or the patient is lost to follow-up, it is permissive in this trial that the investigator contacts the patient, the family of the patient or the referring physician by phone or email to obtain status of life information, or is able to search in registers or publicly available information for such status of life information.

Interventions

Tablets will be taken BID with a glass of water (if possible); one tablet each in the morning (15 to 50 min before a meal if applicable), and in the evening (2 hours after any meal if applicable). If the patient is intubated for ventilation, IMP is to be given via a gastric tube. The tablet has no coating and a homogeneous content and can be crushed into smaller pieces (if necessary) for dosing via gastric tube.

Masking description

Trial participants, the investigator and all other personnel directly involved in the conduct of the trial will be blinded to treatment assignments. To maintain the blind, IMU-838 and placebo tablets will have identical appearance, shape and color, and will have identical labeling and packaging. To minimize the potential for bias, treatment randomization information will be kept confidential by the responsible personnel and will not be released to investigators, other trial center personnel, or the Sponsor's designee(s).

1. Male or female patients at least 18 years old (may be extended to include also children 12 years or older after the 1st interim analysis) 2. Admitted to the hospital or other medical in-patient treatment facility for treatment of COVID-19 The hospitalization needs to be for medical reasons (treatment of COVID-19 disease) and cannot be for social reasons or due to housing insecurity. For US sites only: If the investigator would commonly hospitalize the patient but for healthcare resource reasons decides to treat the patient in a specially designed out-patient setting, then such patients are also allowed to enter the trial (please note that in this case the patient would be counted as clinical status category 3). The investigator then must assure that the patient has at least a twice daily assessment by qualified trial personnel and all laboratory assessments can be adequately performed as per protocol. The Sponsor reserves the right to discontinue this option via administrative letter if such assurances cannot be met by any site. 3. SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test in a nasopharyngeal, oropharyngeal or respiratory sample at ≤4 days before randomization 4. Moderate COVID-19 disease defined as fulfilling clinical status category 3 or 4 on the WHO 9-point ordinal scale \[21\]: * Category 3: Hospitalized (see note above for US only), virus-positive, no oxygen therapy with the following conditions: * The hospitalization needs to be for medical reasons (treatment of COVID-19 disease) and cannot be for social reasons or due to housing insecurity * Category 4: Hospitalized, virus-positive, oxygen by mask or nasal prongs (excluding high-flow oxygen therapy) with the following conditions: * Peripheral capillary oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2) \>92% at maximum of 6 liters oxygen flow per minute * Stable respiratory rate ≤30 breaths/min at maximum of 6 liters oxygen flow per minute 5.

Time to Clinical Improvement

Defined as the time from first dose of investigational medicinal product (IMP) to an improvement of at least 2 points on the Modified WHO Ordinal Scale for Clinical Status (Modified WHO Ordinal Scale for Clinical Status), or live discharge from hospital without oxygen supplementation, whichever comes first. The 50% Kaplan-Meier quartile (median) of actual values per treatment arm is provided as outcome of this variable below.

Time to Clinical Recovery

Time of first assessments of parameters contributing to clinical recovery

Time frame: Throughout the Study (Day 0 to EoS [Day 27 up to Day 42])

Population: The first clinical recovery is counted when later relapses are absent. Except for Day 28/early termination/last day with non-missing assessment, only events where clinical recovery is confirmed on the next visit with non-missing assessment(s) are counted. For Day 28/early termination/last day with non-missing assessment this confirmation is not needed. EoS can be \> 28 days as due to COVID-19 restrictions some patients came late (up to Day 42), which was considered a minor protocol deviation.

Time to Conversion to a Negative SARS-CoV-2 (Qualitative) Test

Virologic markers : Time to Conversion to a Negative SARS-CoV-2 (Qualitative) Test Throughout the study. Only patients with viral load measured from nasopharyngeal swab and results provided by the central laboratory (Covance) were included.Conversion to a negative SARS-CoV-2 status is only assumed if a negative test is confirmed by all available subsequent assessments. This means for Day 28/early termination visit no confirmation is needed. If no conversion to a negative status is documented, patients will be censored for survival analysis at the time of the last documented positive test result.
