Brief Summary

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Lung failure is the main cause of death related to COVID-19 infection. The main objective of this study was to evaluate if ibrutinib is safe and can reduce respiratory failure in participants with COVID-19 infection.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants Alive and Without Respiratory Failure Through Day 28

    Respiratory failure is defined as a clinical diagnosis of respiratory failure and initiation of one of the following therapies: endotracheal intubation and mechanical ventilation; OR extracorporeal membrane oxygenation; OR high-flow nasal cannula oxygen delivery (i.e., reinforced nasal cannula delivering heated, humidified oxygen with fraction of delivered oxygen ≥ 0.5 and flow rates of ≥ 30 L/min); OR non-invasive positive pressure ventilation; OR clinical diagnosis of respiratory failure with initiation of none of these measures only when clinical decision-making is driven solely by resource limitation.

    Through Day 28

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Change in the World Health Organization (WHO)-8 Ordinal Scale From Baseline at Study Day 14

    At Day 14

  • Median Reduction in Days Spent on Supplemental Oxygen

    Up to Day 28

  • All-Cause Mortality at Study Days 7, 14, 21, and 28

    At Study Days 7, 14, 21, and 28

  • Percentage of Participants Experiencing Respiratory Failure or Death on Study Days 7, 14, 21, and 28

    At Study Days 7, 14, 21, and 28

  • Mechanical Ventilation-Free Survival

    Up to Day 28

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Ibrutinib 420 mg + SOC

EXPERIMENTAL

420 mg ibrutinib administered once daily as three hard gelatin capsules (140 mg each) with approximately 240 mL of water for up to 28 days and supportive care (standard-of-care, SOC)

Drug: Ibrutinib

Placebo + SOC

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Three hard gelatin placebo capsules administered once daily with approximately 240 mL of water for up to 28 days and supportive care (standard-of-care, SOC)

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

Capsules were to be administered orally with water once daily. For participants who required nasogastric tube (NGT) placement while on study, capsules may have been administered by opening the capsules, mixing with water, and flushing down the NGT.

Also known as: Imbruvica
Ibrutinib 420 mg + SOC
