Brief Title: Anti-Interleukin-8 (Anti-IL-8) for Patients With COVID-19
Official Title: A Randomized Phase 2 Study of Anti-IL-8 Therapy Versus Standard of Care in the Treatment of Hospitalized Patients With Severe COVID-19
Study ID: NCT04347226
Brief Summary: This study is for patients that are hospitalized for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). The purpose of this study is to see whether neutralizing interleukin-8 (IL-8) with BMS-986253 can help improve the health condition of participants infected with COVID-19. This is the first in-human study of this investigational product specifically in patients with severe COVID-19. Currently there are no FDA approved medications that improve the chance of survival in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. However there are usual treatments currently being used to help treat COVID-19 patients and BMS-986253 will be compared to these standard of care treatments in this study.
Detailed Description: This is a single center, randomized, open-label, phase 2 trial to evaluate the time-to-improvement in the 7 point ordinal scale following treatment with anti-IL-8 therapy (BMS-986253) compared to standard of care in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 respiratory disease. Patients will be randomized 2:1 to receive either BMS-986253 or standard of care. Patients randomized to treatment with BMS-986253 will receive between 1-3 doses of therapy depending on their clinical status. Participants will be assessed daily while in the hospital and with then be followed for up to 1 year after discharge.
