NCT04390217

Brief Summary

This is a Phase 2, proof of concept, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to evaluate the ability of LB1148 to attenuate pulmonary dysfunction associated with COVID-19 pneumonia. The primary objective of this study is to determine if enteral administration of LB1148 will effect disease progression in hospitalized patients with moderate to severe COVID-19 via measurement of the proportion of subjects alive and free of respiratory failure at Day 28.

Study Arms (2)

LB1148

EXPERIMENTAL

LB1148 contains 7.5 g TXA, polyethylene glycol (PEG), glucose, and electrolytes. A total of 700 mL of LB1148 Active will be administered daily as a split dose (350 mL, every 12 hours) for up to 7 days. LB1148 Active is given as a single bolus, to be delivered orally or enterally via NG/OG tube, and should be fully consumed or delivered within 2 hours of the start of administration.

Drug: LB1148

Placebo

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Placebo contains polyethylene glycol (PEG), glucose, and electrolytes. A total of 700 mL of LB1148 Placebo will be administered daily as a split dose (350 mL, every 12 hours) for up to 7 days. LB1148 Placebo is given as a single bolus, to be delivered orally or enterally via NG/OG tube, and should be fully consumed or delivered within 2 hours of the start of administration.

Drug: Placebo

Interventions

LB1148DRUG

LB1148 is delivered orally/enterally, 700 mL per day split into two administrations of 350 mL, approximately 12 hours apart, for up to 7 days.

Also known as: tranexamic acid (TXA)
LB1148

Placebo is delivered orally/enterally, 700 mL per day split into two administrations of 350 mL, approximately 12 hours apart, for up to 7 days.

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Adult patients (18 years of age or older) with the diagnosis of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, confirmed via an established standard reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay.
  • Patient or patient's legally authorized representative is willing and able to provide informed consent prior to performing any study-related procedures.
  • Patient is hospitalized and requires some form of supplemental oxygen, e.g., non-invasive ventilation, high flow oxygen device, or oxygen by mask or nasal cannula.
  • Patient has radiographic evidence of pulmonary infiltrate(s) or lung inflammation.

You may not qualify if:

  • Participation in any other interventional clinical trial using an experimental treatment (drug or device) for COVID-19.
  • Expected survival or time to withdrawal of life-sustaining treatments is expected to be \< 7 days.
  • Patients with do not intubate orders.
  • Patients who require invasive mechanical ventilation at the time of Screening.
  • Patients who require renal replacement therapy (RRT) at the time of Screening.
  • Patients with known aspiration problems.
  • Has contraindications or potential risk factors to taking TXA. These include patients with:
  • Known sensitivity to TXA;
  • Recent craniotomy (past 30 days);
  • Active cerebrovascular bleed;
  • Active thromboembolic disease (such as deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, cerebral thrombosis, ischemic stroke, or acute coronary syndrome);
  • Acute promyelocytic leukemia taking all-trans retinoic acid for remission induction
  • Continuing use of a combined hormonal contraceptive and or combined hormonal replacement therapy (including combined hormonal pill, patch, or vaginal ring).
  • Concomitant therapy with tissue plasminogen activators, Factor IX complex concentrates or anti-inhibitor coagulant concentrates.
  • Known medical history of congenital or acquired thrombophilia such as, but not limited to patients with:
  • +10 more criteria
