A Study of the C3 Inhibitor AMY-101 in Patients With ARDS Due to COVID-19 (SAVE)

Summary

The study is a prospective, randomized, placebo-controlled, single-blind phase 2 clinical study of the efficacy and safety of AMY-101, a potent C3 inhibitor, for the management of patients with ARDS caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. We will assess the efficacy and safety, as well as pharmacokinetics (PK), and pharmacodynamics (PD). The study will assess the impact of AMY-101 in patients with severe COVID19; specifically, it will assess the impact of AMY-101 1) on survival without ARDS and without oxygen requirement at day 21 and 2) on the clinical status of the patients at day 21.
