Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of High Dose IVIG in Hospitalized Participants With Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19)

The purpose of the study is to determine if high dose Intravenous IVIG plus SMT can reduce the proportion of participants dying or requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission on or before Day 29 or who are dependent on high flow oxygen devices or invasive mechanical ventilation on Day 29 versus SMT alone in hospitalized participants with COVID-19.

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Hospitalized male or female subject ≥ 18 years of age at time of Screening who is being treated for COVID-19.
  • Has laboratory-confirmed novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection as determined by qualitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) (reverse transcriptase [RT]-PCR), or other commercial or public health assay (of any type) in any specimen during the current hospital admission prior to randomization.
  • COVID-19 illness (symptoms) of any duration with radiographic infiltrates by imaging (Chest X-Ray, Computed tomography (CT) scan, etc.).
  • PaO2/FIO2 ratio > 300 to ≤ 450 mmHg (i.e., arterial oxygen in mmHg divided by fraction inspired oxygen concentration [e.g., 0.21 for room air])
  • Any one of the following related to COVID-19: i. Ferritin > 400 nanogram per milliliter (ng/mL), ii. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) > 300 units per liter U/L, iii. D-Dimers > reference range, or iv. C-reactive protein (CRP) > 40 milligram per liter (mg/L).
  • Subject (or a legal representative or a nearest relative or a relative by marriage, as appropriate) provides oral informed consent prior to initiation of any study procedures.

Exclusion criteria

  • Subject requires invasive mechanical ventilation or ICU admission.
  • Clinical evidence of any significant acute or chronic disease that, in the opinion of the investigator may place the subject at undue medical risk.
  • The subject has had a known (documented) serious anaphylactic reaction to blood, any blood-derived or plasma product or commercial immunoglobulin.
  • Subject has known (documented) hereditary fructose intolerance (HFI).
  • A medical condition in which the infusion of additional fluid is contraindicated.
  • Shock that is unresponsive to fluid challenge and/or multiple vasopressors and accompanied by multiorgan failure considered by the Principal Investigator not able to be reversed.
  • Subject with known (documented) thrombotic complications to polyclonal IVIG therapy in the past.
  • Subject with current or prior (within the past 1 month) myocardial infarction, stroke, deep vein thrombosis, or thromboembolic event.
  • Subject with limitations of therapeutic effort (eg, 'do not resuscitate' status).
  • Female subject who are pregnant or of child-bearing potential with a positive test for pregnancy blood or urine human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)-based assay at Screening/Baseline.
  • Subject participating in another interventional clinical trial with investigational medical product or device.
