BARCONA: A Study of Effects of Bardoxolone Methyl in Participants With SARS-Corona Virus-2 (COVID-19)

January 11, 2022 updated by: NYU Langone Health

BARCONA: A Phase II, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multi-center Study of the Effects of Bardoxolone Methyl in Participants With SARS-Corona Virus-2 (COVID-19)

This multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized Phase 2 trial will study the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of bardoxolone methyl in patients hospitalized with confirmed COVID-19. The trial will include approximately 40 patients and is designed to provide an early interim analysis of safety. Patients will be randomized using permuted block randomization in a 1:1 fashion to either once-daily administration of bardoxolone methyl (20 mg) or matching placebo and treatment will be administered for the duration of hospitalization (until recovery), with a maximum treatment duration of 29 days.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Following randomization on Day 1, patients will be assessed while hospitalized on Days 3, 5, 8, 11, 15, 22, and 29. Assessments will include clinical status assessments, vital sign measurements, clinical chemistry collection, and adverse event collection. Patients that recover prior to Day 29 will complete an end-of-treatment visit. Patients will have an in-person follow-up on Day 29, regardless of treatment adherence and recovery status prior to Day 29, and a safety follow-up 60 days after randomization for clinical status assessments, vital sign measurements, clinical chemistry collection, and adverse event collection. Follow-up in-person visits are preferred but recognizing quarantine and other factors may limit the subject's ability to return to the site for the visit. In this case, the visit may be performed by phone. An independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board will advise the study leadership on safety aspects and overall progress of the study.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 infection as determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR)

  2. Hospitalized patients that meets one of the following conditions:

    1. Radiographic infiltrates by imaging (chest x-ray, CT scan, etc.); OR
    2. At rest, blood oxygen saturation ≤ 94%; OR
    3. Require supplemental oxygen; OR
    4. Requiring non-invasive ventilation; OR
    5. Requiring invasive mechanical ventilation for up to 2 days.
  3. Age ≥ 18 years. Enrollment of patients ≥70 years of age may be limited (e.g., comprise no more than 10% of all randomized patients), pending safety review by the DSMB and executive committee
  4. Participant or legally authorized representative is willing to give informed consent

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. Intubated and on invasive mechanical ventilation for three or more days at the time of randomization
  2. Known left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) <40% or prior hospitalization for heart failure
  3. Cardiac arrest
  4. Shock
