About this trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect of tozorakimab, as an add-on to SoC in patients with viral lung infection requiring supplemental oxygen, on the prevention of death or progression to IMV/ECMO.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Adult participants ≥ 18 years old at the time of signing the informed consent form.

Patients hospitalised with viral lung infection.

Hypoxaemia requiring treatment with supplemental O2.

Disqualifiers

Known fungal or parasitic lung infection, aspiration lung infection, lung abscess, or evidence of septic shock. Bacterial co-infection is allowed, unless, in the opinion of the investigator, bacterial infection defines the severity of the participant's condition.

Hypoxaemia caused primarily by extrapulmonary insult or by lung injury of non-infective aetiology.

Ongoing IMV/ECMO at randomisation.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Proportion of participants who die or progress to Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) / Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygen (ECMO)

To evaluate the effect of tozorakimab versus placebo as an add on to Standard of Care (SoC) in participants with viral lung infection requiring supplemental oxygen on the prevention of death or progression to IMV/ECMO.

Time frame
by Day 28

Secondary outcomes

1

Proportion of participants who die

To evaluate the effect of tozorakimab versus placebo as add-on to Standard of Care (SoC) on all-cause mortality.

Time frame
by Day 60
2

Number of days alive and outside of Intensive Care Unit (ICU)

To evaluate the effect of tozorakimab versus placebo as add-on to Standard of Care (SoC) on ICU stay.

Time frame
over 28 day period
3

Number of days alive and free of supplemental oxygen

To evaluate the effect of tozorakimab versus placebo as add-on to Standard of Care (SoC) on the duration of oxygen supplementation.

Time frame
over 28 day period
4

Time to death or progression to Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) / Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygen (ECMO)

To evaluate the effect of tozorakimab versus placebo as add-on to Standard of Care (SoC) on prolonging time to death or IMV/ECMO.

Time frame
over 28 day and 60 day period
