Study Description

Brief Summary

This is a bicentric, phase 2, randomized, open-label study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of maraviroc associated with standard treatment in hospitalized patients with pulmonary SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19).

Arms and Interventions

Arm	Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Test arm 100 subjects will be randomly assigned to this arm. Patients in the test group will receive 300 mg of maraviroc BID for 14 days (added to standard care).	Drug: Maraviroc 300 mg Patients will receive maraviroc 300 mg twice daily for 14 days Other Names: Celsentri Selzentry

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

Proportion of patients developing severe ARDS. [28 days]
A patient with a saturation of 90% or less despite the use of a reservoir mask without rebreathing with a flow of 7 liters per minute (FiO2 0.6 or higher), will be considered to have severe ARDS. These oximetric criteria have a close correlation with a PaO2 / FiO2 of 100 or less, which defines severe ARDS.

Secondary Outcome Measures

All-cause mortality. [28 days]
Percentage of patients requiring tracheal intubation, use of Non-invasive Ventilation NIV or High Flow Nasal Cannula (HFNC) devices during the study period [28 days]
Percentage of patients who progress to severe ARDS, death or ICU admission. [28 days]
Differences in Time to Clinical Improvement [28 days]
Defined as the time (in hours) from the start of the treatment under study to the normalization of temperature, normalization of respiratory rate and SpO2. Axillary temperature < 37.5ºC (oral < 37.2ºC) for 48 hours, without antipyretic treatment. Breathing rate < 24 rpm during the clinical evaluation and at least two consecutive daily evaluations (48 hours). SpO2 > 93% breathing ambient air during clinical assessment and at least two consecutive daily assessments (48 hours).
Change in clinical status of subject on a 7-point ordinal scale. [28 days]
The ordinal scale of 7 categories of patient health status ranges from: Death. Hospitalized, with invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO). Hospitalized, with non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen devices. Hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen. Non-hospitalized, activity limitation. Non-hospitalized, no activity limitation.
Percentage of patients requiring immunosuppressive/immunomodulatory treatment as a rescue medication. [28 days]
Proportion of patients developing adverse effects, serious adverse reactions, laboratory or physical examination findings, EKG abnormalities acquired during the trial, death and adverse events leading to early discontinuation of treatment. [28 days]
Classification according to the WHO toxicity scale

Eligibility Criteria

Criteria

Ages Eligible for Study:

Sexes Eligible for Study:

All

Accepts Healthy Volunteers:

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Male or female adult ≥ 18 years of age at the time of giving informed consent.
1. Subject is hospitalized.
1. SARS-CoV-2 infection confirmed by PCR or other commercial or public health tests, in any biological sample obtained up to 4 days prior to randomization, or that meets locally accepted criteria for clinical diagnosis of COVID-19.
1. Lung involvement confirmed by at least one of the following criteria:

Radiological infiltrates on imaging test (conventional radiography, computed tomography (CT) or other)
In the absence of radiological infiltrates, an SpO2 < 95% without oxygen supporting therapy (breathing ambient air), combined with cough, crackles on physical exam, or an LDH > 300 U/L with no other cause.

1. Symptom onset ≤ 8 days prior to randomization.
1. Understands and agrees to comply with planned study procedures.
1. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative test for pregnancy (blood or urine) before their inclusion and agree to use an accepted method of contraception for the duration of the study.
1. Subject (or legally authorized representative) provides written informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. SpO2 ≤ 91% breathing ambient air and SpO2 < 95% with oxygen in nasal cannula at 2 lpm.
1. Patient's attending physician considers the study is not the best medical option, or follow-up after discharge will be difficult.
1. A patient who, in the investigator's opinion, is unlikely to survive > 48 hours from inclusion in the study.
1. Patients with severe chronic kidney disease (ClCr < 30 ml/min/1.73 m2 or receiving renal replacement therapy in any of its modalities).

1. Hemoglobin < 9 gr/dL.
1. Prolonged QT, defined as a QT interval > 460 ms. (or > 450 ms. in case of family history of sudden death or long QT syndrome or personal history of repeat syncope without an etiological diagnosis). This criterion will only apply if the standard treatment contains drugs with an effect on the duration (prolongation) of the QT interval.
