A Study to Learn About the Study Medicines (Nirmatrelvir Plus Ritonavir) in People Aged 12 Years or Older With COVID-19 and a Compromised Immune System
- Conditions
- COVID-19
- Interventions
- Registration Number
- NCT05438602
- Lead Sponsor
- Pfizer
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this clinical trial is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine (called Nirmatrelvir/Ritonavir) for the possible treatment of COVID-19.
Patients with COVID-19 who have more difficulty in fighting against infections have a higher chance of severe illness. Such patients may benefit from longer treatment durations compared to the standard treatment regimen.
The study is seeking participants who:
* Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection
* Are Immunocompromised
* Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 5 days prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization.
In addition, this study will also evaluate the efficacy and safety of a second treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir in people who experience that their COVID-19 is flaring up within 14 days of having taken a 5-day treatment course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir.
For this group, the study is seeking participants who:
* Have a confirmed COVID-19 infection
* Experience a worsening of signs/symptoms after completing an initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir
* The worsening of COVID-19 symptoms must occur within 14 days after completion of the initial 5-day course of nirmatrelvir/ritonavir
* Are Immunocompromised
* Experience onset of signs/symptoms attributable to the current COVID-19 infection within 48 hours prior to screening and ≥1 signs/symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization.
All participants will be taking the study medicine for either 5, 10, or 15 days. The study medication will be taken by mouth 2 times a day. Participants will take part in this study for about 24 weeks. The first dose of study medication is taken at the study site and the rest at home. Selected participants will need to visit the study site at least 10 times during the study.

Number of Participants With Rebound in SARS-CoV-2 RNA Level in NP Swabs at Follow up Day 16 through Day 44 Rebound in SARS-CoV-2 RNA level in NP swabs at follow up (ie, any study visit after end of treatment through Day 44) was defined as a half (0.5) log10 copies/mL increase or greater in SARS-CoV-2 RNA level relative to end of treatment SARS-CoV-2 RNA level based on treatment regimen, with a follow-up viral RNA level \>= 2.5 log10 copies/mL.
Number of Participants With Treatment Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs), Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) and Adverse Events (AEs) Leading to Treatment Discontinuation Day 1 of dosing up to Week 24 An adverse event (AE) was any untoward medical occurrence that did not necessarily have a causal relationship with study treatment. TEAE was an AE that occurred after initiation of study treatment that was not present at the time of treatment start or an AE that increased in severity after the initiation of medication, if the event was present at the time of treatment start emerges. SAE was an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or considered medically significant: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life-threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly or birth defect.
