| List | Outcome | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary | Incidence of Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events [Safety and Tolerability]) Within the CX-4945 Treatment Group | From randomization (Day 1) to Day 60 | To assess adverse events associated with the administration of CX-4945 orally, twice daily to patients with moderate COVID-19. The occurrence of overall AEs in the two treatment groups are summarized. |
| Secondary | Clinical Recovery Associated With COVID-19 Within the CX-4945 Treatment Group | First 14 days of the study. | To compare the number of days to clinical recovery specifically associated with COVID-19 in the CX-4945 treatment group as compared to the control arm by Day 14 of the study. |
| Secondary | Anti-Viral Activity of CX-4945 | Quantitative changes in viral load from Day 1 to Day 28. | To evaluate preliminary evidence of anti-viral activity of CX-4945 as compared to the control arm. |
| Secondary | Maximum Plasma Concentration [Cmax] of CX-4945 | Plasma sample of CX-4945 are collected at the following timepoints: Day 1: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 24 hours post Day 1 morning dose and Day 14: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours post Day 14 morning dose. | To evaluate the maximum plasma concentration of CX-4945 when given at 1000 mg BID PO (Experimental Arm taking CX-4945 only i.e. Group A). |
| Secondary | Time to Maximum Observed Plasma Concentration [Tmax] of CX-4945 | Plasma sample of CX-4945 are collected at the following timepoints: Day 1: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 24 hours post Day 1 morning dose and Day 14: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours post Day 14 morning dose. | To evaluate the time to maximum observed plasma concentration of CX-4945 when given at 1000 mg BID PO (Experimental Arm taking CX-4945 only i.e. Group A). |
| Secondary | Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve [AUC0-6] of CX-4945 | Plasma sample of CX-4945 are collected at the following timepoints: Day 1: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 24 hours post Day 1 morning dose and Day 14: pre-dose, 1, 2, 3, 6, 24, 48 and 72 hours post Day 14 morning dose. | To evaluate the area under the concentration-time curve \[AUC0-6\] of CX-4945 when given at 1000 mg BID PO (Experimental Arm taking CX-4945 only i.e. Group A). |
| Secondary | Clinical Benefit of CX-4945 i.e. All-cause Mortality Status - the Number of Deaths Occurred in Each Treatment Group From Randomization (Day 1) Through Day 60 | From Randomization (Day 1) through Day 60 | Between the experimental arm with CX-4945 and the control arm, moderate COVID-19 patients' health status will be evaluated in terms of all-cause mortality. Mortality status and cause will be assessed by study staff and the information will be documented on a Clinical Status questionnaire. The data collected will be analyzed at the conclusion of the study to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in all-cause mortality between those whose treatment included CX-4945 and those whose treatment did not include CX-4945. |
| Secondary | Clinical Benefit of CX-4945 i.e. Number of Respiratory Failures Occurred in Each Treatment Group From Randomization (Day 1) Through Day 45 | From Randomization (Day 1) through Day 45 | Between the experimental arm with CX-4945 and the control arm, moderate COVID-19 patients' health status will be evaluated in terms of the number of respiratory failures. Respiratory failures will be assessed by study staff and the information will be documented on a Clinical Status questionnaire. The information collected will be analyzed at the conclusion of the study to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in number of respiratory failures between those whose treatment included CX-4945 and those whose treatment did not include CX-4945. |
| Secondary | Clinical Benefit of CX-4945 i.e. Number of Subjects Hospitalized in Each Treatment Group From Randomization (Day 1) to Day 45 | From Randomization (Day 1) to Day 45 | Between the experimental arm with CX-4945 and the control arm, patients will be evaluated in terms of the number of subjects hospitalized in each treatment group. The number of subjects hospitalized will be assessed and the information will be documented on a clinical status questionnaire. The information collected will be analyzed at the conclusion of the study to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in number of subjects hospitalized between those whose treatment included CX-4945 and those whose treatment did not include CX-4945. |
| Secondary | Clinical Benefit of CX-4945 i.e. Number of Days to Normalization of Oxygen Saturation Level Measured by Pulse Oximeter at Randomization (Day 1), Day 4, Day 8, Day 11, Day 14, Day 28 and Day 45 and Categorized as <96% Versus ≥96%. | Randomization (Day 1), Day 4, Day 8, Day 11, Day 14, Day 28 and Day 45 | Between the experimental arm with CX-4945 and the control arm, patients will be evaluated in terms of time to oxygen saturation level normalization. The information collected will be analyzed at the conclusion of the study to determine if there is a statistically significant difference in time to oxygen saturation level normalization between those whose treatment included CX-4945 and those whose treatment did not include CX-4945. Best Case Scenario = Days to first response for responder, = Days to last observation for non-responder (censored); Worst Case Scenario = Days to first response for responder, = Days to planned last observation date (31 for EQ-5D-5L and SARS-COV-2 Viral Clearance at visit 7, 45 for others at visit 8) for non-responder (censored); Days to first response = date of first response - the first treatment date/time + 1 Days to last observation = date of last evaluation - the first treatment date/time + 1 For Arm SOC, the first treatment date is the date of visit 2. |
