The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the superiority of Polyoxidonium®, lyophilizate for solution for injections and topical application, 6 mg over placebo in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). This is a multicentre prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase IIb\IIIa clinical trial.
Read the detailed description
This is a multicenter prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group phase 3 IIb\IIIa trial to evaluate the efficacy of Polyoxidonium®, lyophilizate for solution for injections and topical application, 6 mg over placebo in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease (COVID-19). A study will last for 29±3 days (maximum) for each participant and will include: screening (days -1...1); treatment period (17 days in total, days 1...17) with the administration of the investigational product Polyoxidonium/placebo (intravenous injections for 3 days, then intramuscular injections for 14 days), assessment of the clinical status, recording of AEs; follow-up period (days 18...29±3).
Haematology and blood chemistry tests will be performed at day -1 and days 1,3, 8 ±1, 17±1.
Assessment of the clinical status according to the 7-point ordinal scale and according to the National Early Warning Score (NEWS) scale will be done every day during hospitalization from day 1 up to and including day 17 and at the follow-up on day 29±3.
The safety and tolerability will be evaluated throughout the study (from signing the Informed Consent Form to the study completion visit).

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Clinical status of the patient (according to 7-point ordinal scale)
The primary efficacy outcome will be defined based on the blinded analysis of data of the first 100 patients in the 1st part of the study. There is uncertainty about the clinical course and potential different trajectories according to baseline disease severity, so the day of the primary endpoint may be modified based on a blinded evaluation of the primary efficacy outcome in various days.
Measured: Day 15
Secondary outcomes (5)
Clinical status of the patient (according to 7-point ordinal scale)
Time to improvement by one category from admission on the ordinal scale. Clinical status of the patient. Average change in the ordinal scale from baseline.
Measured: Clinical status of the patient and the average change in the ordinal scale from baseline, both on days 3, 5, 8, 11, 29.
NEWS
The time to discharge or to a NEWS of ≤ 2 and maintained for 24 hours, whichever occurs first.
Change in NEWS from baseline.
Measured: Change in NEWS from baseline on days 3, 5, 8, 11, 15, 29.
Oxygenation
Oxygenation free days. Incidence and duration of new oxygen use.
Measured: Oxygenation free days in the first 28 days (to day 29). Incidence and duration of new oxygen use during the study.
Mechanical Ventilation
Ventilator free days. Incidence and duration of new mechanical ventilation use.
Measured: Ventilator free days in the first 28 days (to day 29). Incidence and duration of new mechanical ventilation use during the trial.
Mortality
Measured: 28-day mortality

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 2/3 study testing azoximer bromide in people with Infections, Coronavirus, run by NPO Petrovax at 14 sites in 2 countries.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 9 inclusion and 18 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 14 sites in Russia, Slovakia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Clinical status of the patient (according to 7-point ordinal scale) (time frame: Day 15). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 23 Aug 2024.
