Phase 3
Recruiting
Conditions
Viral Lung Infection and Acute Respiratory Failure
Interventions
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT05624450

Brief Summary

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.

Sex
All
Target Recruitment
2870
Inclusion Criteria
  • 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.

Hypoxaemia is defined as:

SpO2 ≤ 90% OR

SpO2 ≤ 92% AND one or both of the following:

Radiographic infiltrates by CXR/CT compatible with viral lung infection per investigator judgement.

Use of accessory muscles of respiration or RR (respiratory rate) > 22.

  • Patient remains hypoxaemic at randomisation requiring treatment with supplemental oxygen.
Exclusion Criteria
  • 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.

TozorakimabTozorakimabApproximately 2870 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio. Arm 1 (n=approximately 1435) will receive a single dose of tozorakimab.
PlaceboPlaceboApproximately 2870 participants will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio. Arm 2 (n=approximately 1435) will receive matching placebo.
