Cardiovascular Effects of COVID-19

Phase 2
Completed
Conditions
COVID-19
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT04365699
Lead Sponsor
NYU Langone Health
Brief Summary

Cardiometabolic disease may confer increased risk of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients by activation of the aldose reductase pathway, a trigger of the inflammatory cascade. The study team hypothesizes that aldose reductase inhibition with AT-001 (caficrestat) might represent a novel therapeutic approach to reduce inflammation and risk of adverse outcomes in diabetic patients with COVID-19.

An open-label pilot study to assess safety, tolerability and efficacy of AT-001 in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with history of diabetes mellitus and heart disease will be conducted. Eligible participants will be treated with AT-001 1500 mg twice daily for up to 14 days. Safety, tolerability, survival and length of hospital stay data were compared with matched controls from a contemporaneous registry of COVID-19 patients.
