About this study

Official title: COVID-19 Outpatient Pragmatic Platform Study (COPPS): A Pragmatic Multi-arm, Adaptive, Phase 2, Blinded, Randomized Placebo-controlled Platform Trial to Assess the Efficacy of Different Investigational Therapeutics in Reducing Time to Disease Resolution or Viral Load Cessation, as Compared to Standard Supportive Care in Outpatients With COVID-19

The overall objective of this study is to efficiently evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of different investigational therapeutics among adults who have COVID-19 but are not yet sick enough to require hospitalization. The overall hypothesis is that through an adaptive trial design, potential effective therapies (single and combination) may be identified for this group of patients.

COVID-19 Outpatient Pragmatic Platform Study (COPPS) is a pragmatic platform protocol designed to evaluate COVID-19 treatments by assessing their ability to reduce viral shedding (Viral Domain) or improve clinical outcomes (Clinical Domain). To be included into the platform, every investigational product will collect data for both Domain primary endpoints. Individual treatments to be evaluated in the platform will be described in separate sub-protocols.

Read the detailed description

The platform study allows investigational products with objectives either: evaluating viral shedding (Virology Domain); and COVID-19 related Clinical Outcomes (Clinical Domain).

The primary objective for investigational products within the Viral Domain is:

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of each therapeutic intervention in addition to standard supportive care (SSC) compared with SSC in reducing viral shedding of SARS-CoV-2 virus in outpatients with COVID-19 disease.

The primary objective for investigational products within for the Clinical Domain is:

  1. To evaluate the efficacy of each therapeutic intervention in addition to SSC as compared to SSC in improving sustained clinical outcomes in outpatients with COVID-19 disease.

Secondary objectives are:

  1. The objective of the non-assigned domain an investigational product is under.
  2. If under Clinical Domain, reduction in viral shedding.
  3. If under Viral Domain, time to resolution of symptoms.
  4. To evaluate the efficacy of each therapeutic intervention in reducing SARS-CoV-2 related hospitalizations, ED visits, or death in outpatients with COVID-19 disease.
  5. To assess the development of antibodies against SARS-CoV-2
  6. To evaluate the safety and tolerability of each therapeutic intervention compared with placebo (supportive care).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. For Clinical Domain: Time-to-sustained-resolution

    Time from randomization to sustained symptom resolution assessed over a 28-day period. Resolution is defined as the first day where no symptoms are self-reported on all succeeding days through and including day 28, not including sense of taste or smell, and defining recovery for fatigue and cough as mild or none.

    Measured: 28 days

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. For the Viral Domain: Change in Viral Shedding

    Change in shedding of SARS-CoV-2 virus through day 10 attained from self-collected nasal swab. Viral load (nucleic acid) was assessed by RT-PCR Ct over time, and is reported here as the average change in Ct values per day. Cycle threshold (Ct) denotes how many PCR cycles are required before the SARS-CoV-2 viral RNA reached a detectable level. Higher Ct values correspond to lower viral copy numbers. For reference, Ct values of 20 correspond to ~2.12 x 106 viral copies per milliliter, while a Ct value of 40 is undetectable and is considered the lower limit of detection of this RT-PCR test for SARS-CoV-2.

    Measured: 10 days

  2. Time to Viral Cessation

    Defined as the time in days from randomization to the first of two consecutive negative RT-PCR results of self-collected nasal swabs.

    Measured: 28 days

  3. Time to First Resolution

    Defined as the first study day where no symptoms are self-reported, not including sense of taste or smell, and defining recovery for fatigue and cough as mild or none.

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Time to Full Resolution

    Defined as the study day where no symptoms are first self-reported.

    Measured: 28 days

  5. Number of Participants With SARS-CoV-2 Related Hospitalizations, Emergency Department (ED) Visits, or Death in Outpatients With COVID-19 Disease.

    Measured: 28 days

  6. Number of Participants That Developed Antibodies to SARS-CoV-2

    Measured: 28 days

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 7 inclusion and 16 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 13 Jun 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 13 Jun 2023). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

For Clinical Domain: Time-to-sustained-resolution (time frame: 28 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04662060, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 13 Jun 2023.
