Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of a single intravenous infusion of DZIF-10c in SARS-CoV-2-uninfected and SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals.;Secondary Objective: Secondary Objectives<br>- To determine the pharmacokinetics of DZIF-10c after a single intravenous infusion.<br>- To determine the development of antibodies targeting DZIF-10c (anti-drug antibodies, ADA) following a single DZIF-10c infusion.<br>- To evaluate the effect of a single DZIF-10c infusion on viral shedding in nasopharyngeal swabs by qRT-PCR in SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals.<br>;Primary end point(s): The rate of adverse events that occur during study <br>;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: - The dose limiting toxicity (DLT) period comprises the first 7 days after treatment with DZIF-10c, adverse evnets until End of follow up period (90 day after treatment with DZIF-10c)
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: please see protocol;Secondary end point(s): - The pharmacokinetic profile of DZIF-10c, including elimination half-life, peak serum concentration, area under the curve, clearance, and volume of distribution.<br>- The frequency and magnitude of anti-drug antibodies targeting DZIF-10c following DZIF-10c infusion.<br>- SARS-CoV-2 RNA shedding in nasopharyngeal swabs determined by qRT-PCR in SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals.<br>
