Brief Summary

The primary purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of HC-1119 as an adjuvant treatment for hospitalized COVID-19 male and female patients.

Detailed Description

This study is designed as a prospective, superiority, interventionist, placebo-controlled, double-blinded, randomized parallel assignment study. The study evaluates the efficacy and safety of HC- 1119.

Participants will be screened for eligibility; the assessment should be completed prior to any randomization to avoid screening failures to a maximum extent. Eligible participants (men and women) will be randomized 1:1 between arms (HC-1119 and placebo). HC-1119 and placebo will be administered orally.

The dosing regimen is 160 mg daily for 14 consecutive days. All patients will receive in parallel the standard treatment for COVID -19, according to the institution's protocol.

An electronic program will be used to manage randomization and drug shipment. The whole process will be handled in a manner that is blinded for the treatment received to all involved study personnel. The study follow up period will be 28 days after the first treatment.
