Actual (reported)The proposed phase 2a trial will determine whether MIB-626 treatment in adults with COVID-19 infection and stage 1 acute kidney injury is more efficacious than placebo in preventing worsening of kidney function, as assessed by longitudinal changes in serum creatinine concentration, and in attenuating the inflammatory response to the infection.

Oral administration of MIB-626 substantially raises the intracellular NAD+ levels and activates signaling mechanisms that regulate inflammation and cell survival, downregulates the NLRP3 inflammasome, and attenuates the inflammatory response in a number of experimental models, and protects against tissue damage induced by pro-inflammatory cytokines.
A placebo control will be supplied. Participants randomized to placebo will receive matching tablet. Matching placebo tablets will be provided by the study's Sponsor, Metro International Biotech, LLC.
Fifty participants will be randomized, stratified by sex, remdesivir use, and trial site, in a 3:2 ratio to receive either MIB-626 1.0 g orally or matching placebo twice daily for 14 days.

Participants, who are discharged from the hospital before the completion of the 14-day intervention period, will be provided sufficient study medication to take home with them so they can continue to take the medication twice daily for the remaining duration of the 14-day intervention period.
Subjects will be randomized to receive either the placebo or 1000-mg MIB-626 twice daily orally.
