Description
Inclusion Criteria:

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Topotecan
Subject will receive Topotecan as a single dose or 2 consecutive doses given via intravenous (IV). The starting dose level of Topotecan is 0.25mg. Subsequent dose levels will be 2 doses of 0.25mg, a single dose of 0.5mg and then 2 doses of 0.5mg. Standard of care treatments for COVID-19 will be given together if available as per the following protocol:
|
Topotecan hydrochloride is a semi-synthetic derivative of camptothecin and is an anti-tumor drug with topoisomerase I-inhibitor activity.
It is a well-established chemotherapeutic agent used for cancer treatment.
