Conditions

Covid19

Brief summary

The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) infusion of Ang (1-7) compared to placebo with respect to time to recovery, disease severity, need for mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and mortality in patients with COVID 19.

Interventions

Ang (1-7) administered by continuous intravenous (IV) infusion

DRUGPlacebo

Placebo (normal saline) administered by continuous intravenous (IV) infusion

Inclusion criteria

* Signs and symptoms suggestive of COVID-19 infection including cough or dyspnea * Laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) test ≤7 days before randomization * Currently hospitalized or in an emergency department with planned hospitalization * Peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) ≤93% on room air or partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2)/fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) \<300 at Screening

Exclusion criteria

* Simultaneous participation in any other clinical study incompatible with this one * Treatment with an antibody immunotherapy that is not standard of care for COVID-19 within 4 weeks of Screening * Requirement for mechanical ventilation or ECMO at Screening * Hypotension at Screening, defined as supine BP \<95 mm Hg systolic or \<55 mm Hg diastolic * Severe liver injury defined as AST or ALT ≥5x the upper limit of normal * Severe kidney failure defined as an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) \<30 mL/min * Any known immune deficiency * Pregnancy or breastfeeding

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to recoveryUp to 29 daysTime to recovery, defined as attaining a score of 6, 7, or 8 on the COVID-19 disease severity scale, an 8 point ordinal scale used in the NIH Adaptive COVID-19 Treatment Trial (ACTT; NCT04280705). 1. = Death; 2. = Hospitalized and on invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); 3. = Hospitalized and on non-invasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen devices; 4. = Hospitalized and requiring supplemental oxygen; 5. = Hospitalized and not requiring supplemental oxygen but requiring ongoing medical care (COVID-19-related or otherwise); 6. = Hospitalized and not requiring supplemental oxygen and no longer requiring ongoing medical care; 7. = Not hospitalized, limitation on activities and/or requiring home oxygen; 8. = Not hospitalized, no limitation on activities

Secondary
