May 27, 2024 updated by: Resolve Therapeutics

A Phase 2, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of RSLV-132 in Subjects With Post-acute COVID-19 (Long COVID)

The purpose of this study is to assess the efficacy (decrease in profound fatigue), safety and pharmacokinetics of RSLV-132 in subjects with long Corona Virus (COVID) syndome

Study Overview

Status

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

This is a double-blind placebo-controlled study in approximately 70 subjects with long COVID syndrome. After being informed about the study and potential risks, all subjects giving written informed consent will be screened to determine eligibility in the 21 days before the start of study treatment. Prior to the first study treatment administration, subjects will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio to receive six administrations of 10 mg/kg RSLV-132 or placebo on Days 1, 8, 15, 29, 43 and 57. Subjects will then attend an end of study visit approximately 10 weeks after the start of treatment (Day 71).

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.

  • Use of concomitant medications that are sedating
  • Screening lab abnormalities that may cause fatigue such as severe anemia or hypocalcaemia

  • Positive test for hepatitis B, C, or HIV at Screening
  • Positive pregnancy test at Screening or Baseline
  • Female subjects currently pregnant or breast feeding at Baseline
  • Inability or unwillingness to comply with protocol-specified procedures which, in the opinion of the Investigator, would make the subject unsuitable for study participation

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
PROMIS Fatigue SF 7a T-score
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Mean change in Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System Fatigue Short Form 7a (PROMIS Fatigue 7a) T-score at the end of treatment compared to baseline. The PROMIS Fatigue 7a consists of seven questions measuring symptoms severity at five-point intervals, with higher scores representing a worse outcome.
From Baseline to Day 71

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
FACIT Fatigue questionnaire
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Comparison of the Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy-Fatigue (FACIT-F) questionnaire at the end of treatment compared to baseline. The FACIT-F is a 13 item measure of fatigue with a 7 day recall memory. Items are scored on a five point scale (0-not at all to 4-very much). The total score therefore ranges from 0 to 52, with higher scores reflecting greater fatigue.
From Baseline to Day 71
Long COVID-19-related Symptom Assessment patient questionnaire
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Comparison of the Long COVID-19-related Symptom Assessment patient questionnaire at the end of treatment compared to baseline. Subjects will be asked to describe the severity of eight COVID-19 related symptoms (muscle pain, joint pain, chest pain, brain fog, chills, sweats, abdominal pain and chest tightness) over the last 7 days on a four point scale (0-none to 3-severe) with a higher score representing a worse outcome.
From Baseline to Day 71
Patient-reported Global Impression of Severity questionnaire
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Comparison of the Patient-reported Global Impression of Severity (PGIS) questionnaire at the end of treatment compared to baseline. Subjects will be asked to describe the severity of fatigue on the assessment day compared to the past 7 days on a four point scale (1-no improvement to 4-significant improvement) with a higher score representing a better outcome.
From Baseline to Day 71
Digit Symbol Substitution Test
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Comparison of the Digit Symbol Substitution Test (DSST) at the end of treatment compared to baseline. The DSST is a highly validated measure of the patient's ability to focus and concentrate of a simple task. Subjects with profound fatigue take more time to complete the test.
From Baseline to Day 71
Physician Global Assessment
Time Frame: From Baseline to Day 71
Comparison of the Physician Global Assessment at the end of treatment compared to baseline. The assessment is measured on a 0 to 100 mm scale with score 0 to be no disease activity and score 100 to be the most severe disease activity.
From Baseline to Day 71
