Treatment and Prevention of Acute Lung Injury (ALI) in Patients With COVID-19 Infection (ALI)

December 16, 2021 updated by: Viela Bio

A Proof of Concept Study of the Safety and Efficacy of VIB7734 for the Treatment and Prevention of Acute Lung Injury (ALI) in Patients With SARS-CoV-2 Infection

The study aims to assess the potential benefit and evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of VIB7734 in hospitalized patients with documented infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) with pulmonary involvement. Subjects will be administered a single dose of VIB7734 injected under the skin, assessed for efficacy for 28 days and followed for an additional 42 days.

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

Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study intended to assess the potential benefit and evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single subcutaneous (SC) dose of VIB7734 in hospitalized patients with documented infection of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS CoV-2) with pulmonary involvement. Efficacy will be assessed during the 28 days following a single administration of VIB7734. Safety will be assessed for 10 weeks following dosing. The pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and immunogenicity of VIB7734 in patients with confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infections will also be assessed.

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

18 years to 80 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The proportion of patients who achieve treatment success through Day 28, defined as avoidance of death and critical illness
Time Frame: Day 1 (Baseline) through Day 28
Critical illness is defined by respiratory failure (requiring any of the following: endotracheal intubation, oxygen delivered by high flow nasal cannula, non-invasive positive pressure ventilation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation or clinical diagnosis of respiratory failure) or shock (systolic blood pressure < 90 mm Hg, or diastolic blood pressure < 60 mm Hg, or requiring vasopressors)
Day 1 (Baseline) through Day 28

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Treatment-emergent fatal and life-threatening SAEs, Treatment-emergent Serious Adverse Events
Time Frame: Day 1 (Baseline) through Day 70
Defined as measure of safety
Day 1 (Baseline) through Day 70
Change in safety laboratory parameters
Time Frame: Day 1 (Baseline) through Day 70
Safety evaluation via review of labs (white blood cell (WBC) with differential counts, hemoglobin, platelet count, liver function tests (aspartate aminotransferase [AST], alanine aminotransferase [ALT], and total bilirubin levels), serum chemistry, cardiac troponin coagulation markers (prothrombin time [PT], partial thromboplastin time [PTT], D dimer, fibrinogen), and urinalysis)
