What is being measured

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

  1. Percentage of Asymptomatic Participants Who Remained Asymptomatic, i.e., Who Did Not Develop Symptomatic COVID-19 Through Day 14

    Participants were described as symptomatic if they a. experienced at least two of the following systemic symptoms: fever (≥38 ºC), chills, myalgia, headache, sore throat, cough, fatigue that interferes with activities of daily living, new olfactory/taste disorder(s), and vomiting/diarrhea, b. experienced at least one of the following respiratory signs/symptoms: new or worsening shortness of breath or difficulty breathing; c. experienced a peripheral oxygen saturation by pulse oximetry (SpO2) <94% on room air; or d. had radiographical evidence of pneumonia. The percentage of participants who meet the primary endpoint within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% confidence interval (CI).

    Measured: Up to Day 14

Secondary outcomes (21)
  1. Change From Baseline in SARS-CoV-2 Viral Load (log10 Copies/mL)

    Mean change from baseline (CFB) in log10 SARS-CoV-2 viral load at Days 7 and 14 was assessed.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 7 and Day 14

  2. Percentage of Participants Who Remained in an Outpatient Setting and Maintained SpO2 ≥94% on Room Air on Day 3, Day 7, and Day 14

    An outpatient setting was defined as no hospitalization or intensive care unit (ICU) admission through Days 3, 7, and 14. The percentage of participants who remained in an outpatient setting and maintained SpO2 ≥94% on room air at each timepoint within each treatment group were presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI. p-value and 95% CI were not estimable for C19-IG 20% 1 g vs placebo as all participants had remained in an outpatient setting and maintained SpO2 ≥94% on Room Air in C19-IG 20% 1 g and placebo arm on Day 3.

    Measured: Day 3, Day 7, and Day 14

  3. Percentage of Participants Negative for SARS-CoV-2 by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) Test at Multiple Timepoints Through Day 14 and Through Day 29

    The percentage of participants with negative SARS-CoV-2 by PCR through Day 14 and Day 29 within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI.

    Measured: Day 3, Day 7, Day 14, and Day 29

  4. Time to Negative SARS-CoV-2 PCR From Baseline Through Day 29

    The first negative test result was defined as the first PCR negative result after the first PCR positive result. Kaplan-Meier method was used for analysis. Participants who did not have any viral load data or had negative test results through the study were excluded from the KM analysis.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 29

  5. Percentage of Participants Who Required Oxygen (O2) Supplementation on or Before Day 29

    The percentage of participants requiring oxygen supplementation through Day 29 within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  6. Duration of Any Oxygen Use Through Day 29

    The duration (number of days) of any oxygen use from Day 1 through Day 29 was calculated based on the start/stop date of using oxygen supplementation.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  7. Absolute Value Score on a 7-point Ordinal Scale

    The ordinal scale is a 7-point scale ranging from 1 to 7 used to measure clinical status of a participant based on the following points: 1) death; 2) hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); 3) hospitalized, on non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen devices; 4) hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen; 5) hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 6) not hospitalized, limitation on activities; and 7) not hospitalized, no limitations on activities. A higher score indicates less severity.

    Measured: Baseline, Day 7, 14, and 29

  8. Mean Change From Baseline in the 7-point Ordinal Scale

    The ordinal scale is a 7-point scale ranging from 1 to 7 used to measure clinical status of a participant based on the following points: 1) death; 2) hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or ECMO; 3) hospitalized, on non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen devices; 4) hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen; 5) hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 6) not hospitalized, limitation on activities; and 7) not hospitalized, no limitations on activities. A higher score indicates less severity. The analysis was performed by using a linear mixed-effects model for repeated measures (MMRM).

    Measured: Baseline to Day 7, Day 14, and Day 29

  9. Percentage of Participants in Each Severity Category of the 7-point Ordinal Scale

    The ordinal scale is a 7-point scale ranging from 1 to 7 used to measure clinical status of a participant based on the following points: 1) death; 2) hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or ECMO; 3) hospitalized, on non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen devices; 4) hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen; 5) hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 6) not hospitalized, limitation on activities; and 7) not hospitalized, no limitations on activities.

    Measured: Days 1, 7, 14, and 29

  10. Change From Baseline in National Early Warning Score (NEWS)

    The NEWS has demonstrated an ability to classify participants at risk of poor outcomes. This score is based on 7 clinical parameters (respiration rate, oxygen saturation, any supplemental oxygen, temperature, systolic blood pressure (BP), heart rate, level of consciousness [Alert, Voice, Pain, Unresponsive]). A score of 0 to 3 was allocated to each parameter except supplemental oxygen use (score of 0 or 2) and level of consciousness (score of 0 [alert, normal health condition] or 3 [altered mental state/confusion, worst health condition]). All parameter scores were summed to get an aggregate NEWS assessment. Scoring for NEWS ranges from 0 to 20, with higher scores meaning more severity/higher clinical risk: low risk (score 1 to 4); medium risk (score 5 to 6); high risk (score 7 to 20). The analysis is performed by using a linear MMRM.

    Measured: Baseline to Day 7, Day 14, and Day 29

  11. Percentage of Participants Who Required At Least One COVID-19 Related Medically Attended Visit (MAV) for Management/Treatment of COVID-19 Which May Have Occurred in Any Setting Through Day 29

    MAV for management/treatment of COVID-19 may have occurred in any setting e.g., emergency department, urgent care, outpatient clinic, or professional setting wherein direct in-person/telemedicine medical assessment and escalation of care for COVID-19 was provided by licensed healthcare personnel. The percentage of participants requiring at least one COVID-19-related MAV for management/treatment of COVID-19 (apart from routinely scheduled study-directed visits) within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  12. Percentage of Participants Who Required Hospital Admission for Medical Care (Non-Quarantine Purposes) Through Day 29

    The percentage of participants requiring hospital admission through Day 29 within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  13. Duration of Hospital Stay Through Day 29

    The duration (number of days) of hospitalization from post-randomization through Day 29 was calculated based on hospital admission and discharge dates recorded.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  14. Percentage of Participants Who Required Intensive Care Unit (ICU) Admission or Initiation of ICU Level Care Through Day 29

    The percentage of participants requiring ICU admission through Day 29 within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI. ICU level care is defined as the medical need for intensive or invasive monitoring; the immediate or impending need for the support of the airway, breathing, or circulation; and/or stabilization of acute severe, or life-threatening complications of COVID-19.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  15. Duration of ICU Stay Through Day 29

    The duration (number of days) of ICU stay from post-randomization through Day 29 was calculated based on ICU admission and discharge dates recorded.

  17. Duration of Invasive Mechanical Ventilation Through Day 29

    The duration (number of days) on invasive mechanical ventilation from post randomization through Day 29 was calculated based on the start/stop dates of invasive mechanical ventilation.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  18. All-Cause Mortality Through Day 29

    All-cause mortality rate is the percentage of participants in each treatment group who experienced mortality up to Day 29.

    Measured: Up to Day 29

  19. Percentage of Participants With Critical COVID-19 Illness

    Critical COVID-19 illness was defined as any one of the following: (a) requiring ICU admission or ICU level of care, (b) invasive mechanical ventilation, or (c) resulting in death by Day 29. The percentage of participants with critical COVID-19 illness defined above within each treatment group was presented along with a two-sided exact (Clopper-Pearson) 95% CI.

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 5 inclusion and 19 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Dec 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Spain. 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 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 5 Dec 2022). 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?

Percentage of Asymptomatic Participants Who Remained Asymptomatic, i.e., Who Did Not Develop Symptomatic COVID-19 Through Day 14 (time frame: Up to Day 14). 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 NCT04847141, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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?
