Study of M5049 in Participants With COVID-19 Pneumonia (ANEMONE)

Time to recovery was defined as the time from first dose (Day 1) to first occurrence of World Health Organization (WHO) 9-point ordinal scale 3 or less. The scoring is assessed with the following ordinal scale: 0. Uninfected: no clinical or virological evidence of infection; 1. Ambulatory: no limitation of activities; 2. Ambulatory: limitation of activities; 3. Hospitalized, mild disease: hospitalized, no oxygen therapy; 4. Hospitalized, mild disease: oxygen by mask or nasal prongs; 5. Hospitalized, severe disease: noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, severe disease: intubation and mechanical ventilation; 7. Hospitalized, severe disease: ventilation plus additional organ support for example: vasopressors or Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); 8. Death.

Adverse Event (AE) was defined any untoward medical occurrence in a participant administered with a study drug, which does not necessarily had a causal relationship with this treatment. Serious AE was defined AE that resulted in any of the following outcomes: death; life threatening; persistent/significant disability/incapacity; initial/prolonged inpatient hospitalization; congenital anomaly/birth defect. TEAEs: TEAEs was defined as events with onset date or worsening during the on treatment period. TEAEs included serious TEAEs and non-serious TEAEs.

Laboratory investigation included hematology and biochemistry. The number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in laboratory parameters were reported. Clinical significance was determined by the investigator.

12-lead ECG recordings included rhythm, heart rate (as measured by RR interval), PR interval, QRS duration, and QT interval. 12-lead ECG recordings were obtained after the participants have rested for at least 10 minutes in semisupine position. Clinical significance was determined by the investigator. The number of participants with clinically significant changes from baseline in 12-lead ECG findings were reported.

The percentage of participants who were alive and did not require supplemental oxygenation or ventilatory support (including noninvasive or mechanical ventilation and Extra Corporeal Membrane Oxygenation [ECMO]) reported.

Clinical status was based on data collected on the 'Ordinal Scale for Clinical Status and is assessed with the following ordinal scale: 0. Uninfected: no clinical or virological evidence of infection; 1. Ambulatory: no limitation of activities; 2. Ambulatory: limitation of activities; 3. Hospitalized, mild disease: hospitalized, no oxygen therapy; 4. Hospitalized, mild disease: oxygen by mask or nasal prongs; 5. Hospitalized, severe disease: noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, severe disease: intubation and mechanical ventilation; 7. Hospitalized, severe disease: ventilation plus additional organ support for example: vasopressors or ECMO; 8. Death.

SpO2 is an estimate of the amount of oxygen in the blood. It is the percentage of hemoglobin containing oxygen compared to the total amount of hemoglobin in the blood (that is, oxygenated hemoglobin versus oxygenated and non-oxygenated hemoglobin). SpO2 measured by pulse oximetry. The time to SPO2 greater than or equal to (>=) 94 percent (%) sustained for at least 24 hours in room air is reported in days.

Percentage of Participants who died for any reason reported.

Time to ICU admission was defined as the time from first dose (Day 1) to the date/time of ICU admission, or death, whichever occurs first, in days. Event-free survival function for time to event (ICU admission or death) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method.

Time to non-invasive mechanical ventilation was defined as the time from first dose (Day 1) to the date/time of clinical status >= 5, in days. Event-free survival function for time to event (Non-invasive mechanical ventilation or death) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method. Clinical status was based on data collected on the 'Ordinal Scale for Clinical Status and is assessed with the following ordinal scale: 0. Uninfected: no clinical or virological evidence of infection; 1. Ambulatory: no limitation of activities; 2. Ambulatory: limitation of activities; 3. Hospitalized, mild disease: hospitalized, no oxygen therapy; 4. Hospitalized, mild disease: oxygen by mask or nasal prongs; 5. Hospitalized, severe disease: noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, severe disease: intubation and mechanical ventilation; 7. Hospitalized, severe disease: ventilation plus additional organ support for example: vasopressors, and ECMO; 8. Death

Time to invasive mechanical ventilation was defined as the time from first dose (Day 1) to the date/time of clinical status >= 6, in days. Event-free survival function for time to event (invasive mechanical ventilation or death) estimated via Kaplan-Meier method. Clinical status was based on data collected on the 'Ordinal Scale for Clinical Status and is assessed with the following ordinal scale: 0. Uninfected: no clinical or virological evidence of infection; 1. Ambulatory: no limitation of activities; 2. Ambulatory: limitation of activities; 3. Hospitalized, mild disease: hospitalized, no oxygen therapy; 4. Hospitalized, mild disease: oxygen by mask or nasal prongs; 5. Hospitalized, severe disease: noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, severe disease: intubation and mechanical ventilation; 7. Hospitalized, severe disease: ventilation plus additional organ support for example: vasopressors, and ECMO; 8. Death.

Total days in the ICU was defined as the sum, for all ICU admissions, of the time from ICU admission to the date of ICU discharge, in days.

Total days in the hospital was defined as the sum, for all hospitalization events, of the time from first dose to the date of hospital discharge in days.

The time to hospital discharge, defined as the time from first dose (Day 1) to the date of first hospitalization discharge, in days.

C-Reactive Protein, D-Dimer and Ferritin inflammatory biomarkers were analyzed for this study. Percent Change From Baseline in Inflammatory Biomarkers Over Time were reported here.

Interleukin 6 and Interleukin 8 serum cytokine biomarkers were analyzed. Percent Change From Baseline in Serum Cytokine Biomarkers were reported.

Relapse refers to rehospitalization due to worsening oxygenation, with either a positive result of any respiratory pathogenic nucleic acid test, or worsening lesions on chest imaging.

Percentage or participants who are re-hospitalized due to coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) complications were reported.
