Overview
Brief Summary
This study is a Phase 2b, Multicenter, Open-label, Randomized, Comparator- Controlled Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Desidustat Tablet for the Management of mild, moderate and severe COVID-19 patients. 100 mg of Desidustat will be administered for a period of 14 days along with recommended standard care during the trial.
Detailed Description
This is a phase 2b, multicenter, open-label, randomized, comparator-controlled clinical trial to evaluate the efficacy and safety of Desidustat for the management of COVID-19 patients. First 12 mild to moderate subjects (Test arm: Desidustat + Standard of care arm, 06 subjects and Reference arm: Standard of care, 06 subjects) will be enrolled in the study and after evaluation of safety of these 12 subjects by Data Monitoring Committee other 12 severe subjects (Test arm: Desidustat + Standard of care arm, 06 subjects and Reference arm: Standard of care arm, 06 subjects) will be enrolled in the study.
