Brief Summary

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

Phase II/Phase III study to evaluate the safety and efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet against Placebo in subjects hospitalized for pneumonia due to SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Approximately 324 eligible subjects will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to one of the two treatment groups.

Group I: Ramatroban 75 mg tablet + Standard of care; Group II: Placebo + Standard of care.

Phase 2

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the safety of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects.

Secondary Objective:

To assess the efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects.

Phase 3

Primary Objective:

To evaluate the efficacy of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects.

Secondary Objective:

To evaluate the safety of Ramatroban 75 mg tablet with the standard of care against Placebo with the standard of care in COVID-19 hospitalized subjects.

Long COVID \[Follow-up Phase- Objectives- (Phase 2 \& 3)\]

1. To examine lipid mediators, specifically thromboxane A2, prostaglandin D2, F2-isoprostane and/or their metabolites in convalescent subjects after treatment.
2. To assess the efficacy of Ramatroban administered during the acute illness in preventing/mitigating subsequent development of long COVID / PASC

4. Subjects meeting 8-point WHO Ordinal Scale 5 or 6
5. Has laboratory-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by PCR or other commercial or public health assay in any specimen, as documented by either of the following:

1. PCR positive in a sample collected \< 72 hours prior to randomization; OR
2. PCR positive in sample collected ≥ 72 hours but \< 10 days prior to randomization AND non-improving or progressive disease suggestive of ongoing SARS-CoV-2 infection.

i. Note: In case if the subject is not having previous reports, a quantitative analysis will be performed
6. Women of childbearing potential must agree to either abstinence or use at least one primary form of contraception not including hormonal contraception from the time of screening through Day 36.
