A prospective, controlled, randomized, multicenter study whose goal is to compare the efficacy of an autophagy inhibitor (GNS561), an anti-NKG2A (monalizumab) and an anti-C5aR (avdoralimab) versus standard of care in patients with advanced or metastatic cancer who have Sars-CoV-2 infection not eligible to a resuscitation unit. According to their severity level at the time of enrolment, eligible patients will be randomized into 2 different cohorts: - COHORT 1 (mild symptoms or asymptomatic): GNS561 vs anti-NKG2A vs standard of care (randomization ratio 1:1:1). - COHORT 2 (moderate/severe symptoms): anti-C5aR vs standard of care (randomization ratio 1:1).

E7. Significant cardiovascular disease, such as New York Heart Association cardiac disease (Class II or greater), myocardial infarction within 3 months prior to the date of randomisation unstable arrhythmias or unstable angina, Known Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) < 50%. Note: Patients with known coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure not meeting the above criteria must be on a stable medical regimen that is optimized in the opinion of the treating physician and in consultation with a cardiologist if appropriate. E8. Patient has known active hepatitis B (chronic or acute; defined as having a positive hepatitis B surface antigen [HBsAg] test at screening), known active hepatitis C (Patients positive for hepatitis C virus (HCV) antibody are eligible only if PCR is negative for HCV RNA at screening) or known Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) infection (HIV 1/2 antibodies). E9. Prior allogeneic bone marrow transplantation or solid organ transplant in the past. E10. Has a history or current evidence of any condition, therapy, or laboratory abnormality that might confound the results of the trial, interfere with the subject's participation for the full duration of the trial, or is not in the best interest of the subject to participate, in the opinion of the treating Investigator. E11. Has known psychiatric or substance abuse disorders that would interfere with cooperation with the requirements of the trial. E12. Pregnant or breastfeeding patient, or expecting to conceive children within the projected duration of the trial, starting with the screening visit through 6 months after the last dose of study drugs. |

| Primary | 28-day survival rate | 28-day survival rate, defined by the proportion of patients still alive 28 days after randomization.
If vital status at 28 days post randomisation is not available due to early transfer in an external resuscitation unit, patients will be considered as failure at the date of the transfer. Comparison of each experimental arm (GNS561 then monalizumab for cohort1 and avdoralimab for cohort2) to control arm will be performed using a Fisher exact test. |
