NCT04593940

Brief Summary

ACTIV-1 IM is a master protocol designed to evaluate multiple investigational agents for the treatment of moderately or severely ill patients infected with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The research objectives are to evaluate each agent with respect to speed of recovery, mortality, illness severity, and hospital resource utilization. Each agent will be evaluated as add-on therapy to the standard of care (SoC) in use at the local clinics, including remdesivir (provided). The SoC may change during the course of the study based on other research findings. Comparisons of the agents among themselves is not a research objective. The study population corresponds to moderately and severely ill patients infected with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) virus. Recruitment will target patients already hospitalized for treatment of COVID-19 infection as well as patients being treated for COVID-19 infection in Emergency Departments while waiting to be admitted to the hospital. Patients both in and out of the ICU are included in the study population.

Model Details: ACTIV-1 IM builds upon findings and the model used for other network COVID studies. Including multiple therapeutic agents under a single protocol avoids duplication of effort in terms of infrastructure, trial governance, information systems (EDC, web-based randomization, etc.) and other aspects of study management. Implementation of the master protocol facilitates discontinuation of less promising agents and addition of possibly newly emergent agents that become available after the study begins, without stopping and starting the study itself for extended pauses. All test agents are evaluated as add-on therapies to the local SoC at each clinic. The master protocol design allows for the efficacy and safety of each agent to be determined based on comparisons with a pooled control group, consisting of patients receiving SoC plus placebo. Sharing control patients across all test agents substantially reduces the sample size requirements for the study.
