• To assess the effects of SIR1-365 on biomarkers indicative of target engagement in patients with severe COVID-19

• To assess the effects of SIR1-365 on biomarkers indicative of kidney injury in patients with severe COVID-19

• To assess the effects of SIR1-365 on biomarkers indicative of cardiovascular endothelial cell damage in patients with severe COVID-19

• To characterize plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) of SIR1-365 in patients with severe COVID-19

Eligibility

Inclusion Criteria:

• Hospitalized patient with clinical diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection per World Health Organization criteria including positive nucleic acid test of any specimen (e.g., respiratory, blood, or other bodily fluid) within 2 weeks prior to screening.

• Symptoms suggestive of severe systemic illness with COVID-19, which could include any of the following symptoms: fever, cough, sore throat, malaise, headache, muscle pain, gastrointestinal symptoms, or shortness of breath at rest, or respiratory distress.

• Clinical signs indicative of severe systemic illness with COVID-19, which could include any of the following clinical signs: respiratory rate = 30 per minutes, heart rate = 125 per minute, SpO2 = 93% on room air, or PaO2/FiO2 ratio < 300 mmHg.

• Men or women =18 but =80 years of age at the time of signing the informed consent.

• Patient is able to understand the purpose and risks of the study and provide signed and dated informed consent or have a legal representative provide consent and authorization to use protected health information (in accordance with national and local patient privacy regulations).

Exclusion Criteria:

• Patient requires endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation, oxygen delivered by high-flow nasal cannula (heated, humidified, oxygen delivered via reinforced nasal cannula at flow rates >20 L/min with fraction of delivered oxygen = 0.5), noninvasive positive pressure ventilation, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO), or clinical diagnosis of respiratory failure.

• Patient with shock defined by systolic blood pressure < 90 mm Hg, or diastolic blood pressure < 60 mm Hg or requiring vasopressor.

• Patient with multi-organ dysfunction or failure defined by an increase in the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment score of 2 points or more.

• Patient is unlikely to survive beyond 2 days at the discretion of Investigator.

• Patient has used chronic systemic corticosteroids within 2 weeks prior to screening.

• Patient with positive results for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) or hepatitis B or C test.

• Patient has known active tuberculosis (TB), history of uncontrolled TB, suspected or known systemic bacterial or fungal infections within 4 weeks prior to screening.

• Patient has any other condition, which makes the patient unsuitable for study participation
