Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of GLS-1027 in the prevention of severe pneumonitis caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study will assess 2 different doses of GLS-1027 in the prevention of severe pneumonitis among those hospitalized with PCR confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. Subjects will be randomized at a 1:1:1 ratio to either Standard of Care (SOC) plus placebo, or SOC plus GLS-1027 at either 120 mg or 360 mg daily. Clinical status will be monitored through 56 days from the initiation of treatment.
