Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Percentage of Participants Alive and Free of Respiratory Failure at Day 14 [At Day 14]

    Respiratory failure, is defined based on resource utilization of any of the following modalities: a) Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation b) Oxygen delivered by high-flow nasal cannula (heated, humidified, oxygen delivered via reinforced nasal cannula at flow rates >20 L/min with fraction of delivered oxygen ≥0.5) c) Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure d) Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Number of Participants With Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events [Screening to 28 (+3) days after last dose of acalabrutinib (for acalabrutinib + BSC participants) or to 38 (+3) days after randomization (for BSC alone participants)]

  2. Percentage of Participants Alive and Free of Respiratory Failure at Day 28 [At Day 28]

    Respiratory failure, is defined based on resource utilization of any of the following modalities: a) Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation b) Oxygen delivered by highflow nasal cannula (heated, humidified, oxygen delivered via reinforced nasal cannula at flow rates >20 L/min with fraction of delivered oxygen ≥0.5) c) Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure d) Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

  3. Percent Change From Baseline in C-reactive Protein. [Days 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28]

    Baseline is defined as the result obtained on the date of randomization. If no result was obtained on the date of randomization, the last result prior to the date of randomization is used. Percent change from baseline at Day X is calculated by multiplying the following result by 100%: (Day X value - Baseline value)/Baseline value. The mean of this result for all analyzed patients is taken to get the mean percent change from baseline.

  4. Percent Change From Baseline in Ferritin [Days 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28]

    Baseline is defined as the result obtained on the date of randomization. If no result was obtained on the date of randomization, the last result prior to the date of randomization is used. Percent change from baseline at Day X is calculated by multiplying the following result by 100%: (Day X value - Baseline value)/Baseline value. The mean of this result for all analyzed patients is taken to get the mean percent change from baseline.

  5. Percent Change From Baseline in Absolute Lymphocyte Count [Days 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28]

    Baseline is defined as the result obtained on the date of randomization. If no result was obtained on the date of randomization, the last result prior to the date of randomization is used. Percent change from baseline at Day X is calculated by multiplying the following result by 100%: (Day X value - Baseline value)/Baseline value. The mean of this result for all analyzed patients is taken to get the mean percent change from baseline.

  6. Overall Survival [From randomization until 90 days after randomization. Safety Issue:]

    Median overall survival, calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique. Confidence interval for median overall survival (days) is derived based on Brookmeyer-Crowley method with log-log transformation.

  7. Percentage of Participants Alive and Discharged From ICU [At Day 14 and at Day 28]

  8. Time From Randomization to First Occurrence of Respiratory Failure or Death on Study Due to Any Cause [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

    Median time to first occurrence of respiratory failure or death, calculated using the Kaplan-Meier technique. Confidence interval for median overall survival (days) is derived based on Brookmeyer-Crowley method with log-log transformation.

  9. Number of Days Alive and Free of Respiratory Failure [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

    Respiratory failure, is defined based on resource utilization of any of the following modalities: a) Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation b) Oxygen delivered by highflow nasal cannula (heated, humidified, oxygen delivered via reinforced nasal cannula at flow rates >20 L/min with fraction of delivered oxygen ≥0.5) c) Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure d) Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation

  10. Number of Days With Respiratory Failure [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

    Respiratory failure, is defined based on resource utilization of any of the following modalities: a) Endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation b) Oxygen delivered by high-flow nasal cannula (heated, humidified, oxygen delivered via reinforced nasal cannula at flow rates >20 L/min with fraction of delivered oxygen ≥0.5) c) Non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or continuous positive airway pressure d) Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation For participants who die (due to any cause) prior to Day 28, days from death to Day 28 are counted as days with respiratory failure. For participants in hospital and experiencing respiratory failure at the time they withdraw from the study, days from last known status to Day 28 are counted as days with respiratory failure.

  11. Number of Days Hospitalized [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

    For this summary, the hospitalization must be considered clinically indicated to count as a day hospitalized. For participants who die (due to any cause) prior to Day 28, days from death to Day 28 are counted as days hospitalized. For participants in hospital at the time they withdraw from the study, days from last known status to Day 28 are counted as days hospitalized.

  12. Number of Days in ICU [From randomization to 90 days after randomization.]

    For this summary, the ICU stay must be considered clinically indicated to count as a day in ICU. For participants who die (due to any cause) prior to Day 90, days from death to Day 90 are counted as days in ICU.

  13. Number of Days Alive Outside of Hospital [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

  14. Number of Days Alive Outside of Hospital [From randomization to 90 days after randomization.]

  15. Percent Change From Baseline in Oxygenation Index [Days 3, 5, 7, 10, 14, 28]

    Baseline is defined as the result obtained on the date of randomization. Percent change from baseline at Day X is calculated by multiplying the following result by 100%: (Day X value - Baseline value)/Baseline value. The mean of this result for all analyzed patients is taken to get the mean percent change from baseline.

  16. Time From Randomization to Clinical Improvement of at Least 2 Points on a 9-point Category Ordinal Scale [From randomization to 28 days after randomization.]

Outcome Measure Data

Analysis Population Description
Safety analysis set: If the participant receives at least 1 dose of acalabrutinib, they are summarized in the Acalabrutinib + BSC group. Otherwise, they are summarized in the BSC alone group. The number of participants in the BSC alone group (91) is greater than the number of participants randomized to this group (88) because three participants randomized to Acalabrutinib + BSC did not receive any acalabrutinib and therefore are included in the BSC alone group for the safety analysis set.

Limitations/Caveats

Improvements in BSC (use of corticosteroids and antivirals) have led to a substantial reduction in mortality and morbidity in patients hospitalized with COVID-19, which, in turn, minimizes the impact that additional treatment regimens can have on patient prognosis and recovery. In addition, variability in patient population and the performance of BSC across the globe poses challenges to demonstrate benefit.
