Angiotensin (1-7) for the Treatment of COVID-19 in Hospitalized Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The primary objective is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous (IV) infusion of Ang (1-7) compared to placebo with respect to time to recovery, disease severity, need for mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), and mortality in patients with COVID 19.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Time to recovery [Up to 29 days]
Time to recovery, defined as attaining a score of 6, 7, or 8 on the COVID-19 disease severity scale, an 8 point ordinal scale used in the NIH Adaptive COVID-19 Treatment Trial (ACTT; NCT04280705). = Death; = Hospitalized and on invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); = Hospitalized and on non-invasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen devices; = Hospitalized and requiring supplemental oxygen; = Hospitalized and not requiring supplemental oxygen but requiring ongoing medical care (COVID-19-related or otherwise); = Hospitalized and not requiring supplemental oxygen and no longer requiring ongoing medical care; = Not hospitalized, limitation on activities and/or requiring home oxygen; = Not hospitalized, no limitation on activities
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Incidence of mortality at Day 29 [29 days]
- Number of days alive and not on mechanical ventilator or ECMO in the 28 days following first dose [Up to 29 days]
- Number of participants requiring mechanical ventilation or ECMO, or dying, through Day 29 [Up to 29 days]
- COVID-19 disease severity scale score on Day 8 [Day 8]
COVID-19 disease severity scale (range; 1-8, higher scores correspond to better health state).
- COVID-19 disease severity scale score on Day 15 [Day 15]
COVID-19 disease severity scale (range; 1-8, higher scores correspond to better health state).
- COVID-19 disease severity scale score on Day 22 [Day 22]
COVID-19 disease severity scale (range; 1-8, higher scores correspond to better health state).
- COVID-19 disease severity scale score on Day 29 [Day 29]
COVID-19 disease severity scale (range; 1-8, higher scores correspond to better health state).
