Population: The Intent-to-Treat (ITT) Analysis Set was used for the analysis and includes all randomized participants. Subjects who discontinued the study prior to the timepoint are censored at the date of discontinuation and excluded from the analysis. At Day 57, the number participants analyzed were different because 9 participants were censored from the asapiprant arm and 15 participants from the placebo arm.

Proportion of participants surviving at Day 14, Day 28, and Day 57. The proportion of participants is represented as a percentage.

Kaplan-Meier Estimate of Time to Clinical Worsening from Baseline Value. Time to clinical worsening from baseline value (defined by time to ≥ 1-point worsening on World Health Organization (WHO) Ordinal Scale for COVID-19). The ordinal scale is an assessment of the clinical status at a given day. Each day, the worst score from the previous day will be recorded. The scale is as follows: 0.) Uninfected 1.) Ambulatory with no limitation of activities 2.) Ambulatory with limitation of activities 3.) Hospitalized, mild disease with no oxygen therapy 4.) Hospitalized, mild disease with oxygen by mask or nasal prongs 5.) Hospitalized, severe disease with noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen 6.) Hospitalized, severe disease with intubation and mechanical ventilation 7.) Hospitalized, severe disease with ventilation and additional organ support (pressors, renal retention therapy, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) 8.) Death. A higher score means a worse outcome.

Median Survival Time was assessed using a Kaplan Meier Estimate with median survival defined as the smallest time at which the survival probability drops to 0.5 (50%) or below. Up to Day 57, the survival rate, for each of the treatment arms and overall, never fell below 50% therefore the median survival time was unable to be calculated. There were insufficient number of participants with events to calculate the lower limit of the 95% confidence interval.
