简要总结
COVID-19 is an acute respiratory disease caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV).
Synairgen is currently conducting a global Phase III clinical trial of SNG001 to determine efficacy and safety in patients hospitalised due to COVID-19 that receive oxygen therapy. The primary endpoint in the Phase III trial (SG018) is to evaluate recovery in patients hospitalised due to COVID-19 that require oxygen therapy after administration of SNG001 compared to placebo. The primary endpoint will be determined using the World Health Organization Ordinal Scale of Clinical Improvement (OSCI) score, which will be assessed daily. The OSCI will be used in two different ways during SG018. When the patients are in hospital, the clinical study staff will assess the patient via observation using the OSCI. However, when patients have been discharged from hospital, the clinical study staff will assess the OSCI by asking two questions, one regarding the presence of COVID-19 symptoms and the other regarding usual activities returning to baseline levels. The patient will be required to answer both questions with either a 'yes' or 'no' answer. Daily assessments of the OSCI will be conducted via video call or telephone call after discharge from hospital. The two questions asked of patients when OSCI is assessed after discharge from hospital have been added to trial SG018 to allow assessment of OSCI to continue throughout the trial. As these are new questions and the data from these is being used to assess the primary endpoint in trial SG018, their relevance, ease of understanding and clarity needs to be shown, which is why this interview study is being conducted. Having patients comment on these questions will ensure that the way the benefit of treatment is being measured in SG018 is done in a robust and patient-centred way.
The main aims of this qualitative pilot study are to:
- To confirm how relevant, clear and easy to understand the two additional OSCI questions asked about COVID-19 symptoms and levels of usual activity are when patients have been discharged from hospital.
- To find out what other symptoms and experiences patients hospitalised for COVID-19 might have had to see if these are reflected in the questionnaires used in SG018.
详细描述
This is non-interventional, qualitative interview study. Patients will participate in a single one-on-one, semi-structured, 90-120 minute interview. The interviews will be audio/video-recorded. The interviews are non treatment-related, and no investigational drugs, devices, or invasive procedures will be administered or evaluated as part of this study.
Patients who have been hospitalized due to COVID-19 will be approached about the study by a dedicated clinician from the site the patient was hospitalized at. Eligible patients will be recruited via hospitals in the UK and the US. At that time, potential participants will be provided with the 'Consent to Contact' form, Patient Information Sheet and Informed Consent Form and if the patient is interested in the study the patient will be asked to sign 'Consent to Contact' form that will allow the clinical staff to pass the patient information to the research team at Parexel. All other research related activities will be conducted by the research team at Parexel.
Parexel research team will contact the potential participants to further confirm eligibility criteria, provide additional details of the study and explain the consent process. Participants will be given ample time to consider the study and the opportunity to ask the research team questions prior to deciding whether to participate or not.
If the participant agrees to take part in the study, the participant will be asked to provide signed consent by signing the Informed Consent Form.
Parexel research team will discuss the most suitable day and time for the interview and will assure that the participant has access to the required technology.

结局指标
主要结局
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (PHQ-9)
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Conduct concept confirmation exercises for the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9) to demonstrate the content relevance in this patient population. Patient health questionnaire included: little interest or pleasure in doing things; feeling down, depressed or hopeless; trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, or sleeping too much; feeling tired or having little energy; poor appetite or overeating; feeling bad about yourself or that you are a failure have let yourself or your family down; trouble concentrating on things; moving or speaking so slowly or so fidgety or restless that you have been moving a lot more than usual; and thoughts that you would be better off dead; or thoughts of hurting yourself in some way. Based on responses, scoring will be done and scores ranges from 0 to 4, where 0 represents not at all bothered by any of the above problems and 4 indicates nearly bothered every day by any of the above problems. Higher scores indicated worse outcome.
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (FACIT)
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Conduct concept confirmation exercises for the FACIT Fatigue Scale (Version 4) (FACIT) to demonstrate the content relevance in this patient population. The FACIT Fatigue Scale (Version 4) will include statements for patients such as: I feel fatigued; I feel weak all over; I feel listless ("washed out"); I feel tired; I have trouble starting things because I am tired; I have trouble finishing things because I am tired; I have energy; I am able to do my usual activities; I need to sleep during the day; I am too tired to eat; I need help doing my usual activities; and I am frustrated by being too tired to do the things I want to do. Based on responses on above statements, scoring will be done and scores ranges from 0 to 4, where 0 represents not at all bothered by any of the above problems and 4 indicates very much bothered every day by any of the above problems. Higher scores indicated worse outcome.
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (GAD-7)
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Conduct concept confirmation exercises for the General Anxiety Disorder 7 Questionnaire (GAD-7) to demonstrate the content relevance in this patient population. Scoring will be done based on how often patients have been bothered by the problems as: feeling nervous, anxious or on edge; not being able to stop or control worrying; worrying too much about different things; trouble relaxing; being so restless that it's hard to sit still; becoming easily annoyed or irritable, and feeling afraid at if something awful might happen. The scores ranges from 0 to 4, where 0 represents not at all bothered by any of the above problems and 4 indicates nearly bothered every day by any of the above problems. Higher scores indicated worse outcome.
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (BCSS)
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Conduct concept confirmation exercises for the breathlessness, cough and sputum scale (BCSS) (scale of 0 (no symptoms) up to 4 (severe symptoms) to demonstrate the content relevance in this patient population.
Confirmation of content relevance, comprehensiveness and clarity
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Confirm the content relevance, comprehensiveness and clarity of the COVID-19 symptom assessment instrument. When asked if the symptom is present, the patient answers either 'yes' or 'no'. The answer 'yes' indicates a worse outcome.
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (EQ-5D-5L)
时间窗: Within 35 days of hospital discharge
Conduct concept confirmation exercises for EuroQol 5-dimension 5-level (EQ-5D-5L) to demonstrate the content relevance in this patient population. The EQ-5D-5L provides a simple descriptive profile and a single index value for health status. The EQ-5D-5L self-rated questionnaire includes a visual analogue scale, which records the respondent's self-rated health status on a graduated (0-100) scale, with higher scores for higher health-related quality of life. It also includes the EQ-5D-5L descriptive system, which comprises 5 dimensions of health: mobility, self-care, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression. The responses record five levels of severity (no problems/slight problems/moderate problems/severe problems/extreme problems) within a particular EQ-5D dimension. Here, 100 means the best health and 0 means the worst health.
Confirmation of content relevance for SG018 PRO instruments (BPI-SF)
