Clinical Trial Summary

The study is a Randomized, Open-Label, Multi-Centre, Phase 2a Study to Evaluate the Safety and Effect of STC3141 Continuous Infusion in Subjects with Severe Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19)Pneumonia.


Clinical Trial Description

Pneumonia is the most frequent and serious complication of Corona Virus Disease 2019(COVID-19), a disease that results from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2)infection with a so-called "cytokine storm", characterized by the plasma increase of many cytokines that produce long-term damage and fibrosis of lung tissue. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic strategies to target at neutrophils associated NETs/histones may reduce the overall disease mortality rate of COVID-19. STC3141 is a novel investigational product that can neutralize NETs/histone via charge-charge interaction. STC3141 was found to be well-tolerated in short infusions (2 hours) and continuous long-term infusions (72 hours) in healthy volunteers. A randomized, multi-centre, phase 2a study in 25 severe COVID-19 pneumonia subjects who require hospitalization, is designed to evaluate the safety and the preliminary effect of STC3141 in this population where the treatment will be tested for the first time. Subjects will be randomized to three cohorts in a 2:2:1 ratio to receive continuous infusion of STC3141 either at rate 58.3mg/hr or 87.5mg/hr up to 3 days (72hours), or to receive appropriate standard of care. All subjects in STC3141 treatment groups will also receive standard of care for their conditions as background treatment. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety of STC3141 in subjects with severe COVID-19 pneumonia.The secondary objective is to evaluate the preliminary effects of STC3141 in the treatment of subjects with severe COVID-19 pneumonia.As an exploratory objective, the change in biomarkers from baseline following STC3141 treatment in subjects with severe COVID-19 pneumonia will be evaluated. ;
