Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Maraviroc in Patients Hospitalized for Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19)

Maraviroc (MVC) is a drug, very well tolerated, it has been seen that MVC has properties of modulating the immune system, exerting an anti-inflammatory effect in different diseases. In COVID-19, very high levels of inflammation occur that cause organs and systems to be damaged. MVC could reduce this inflammation achieving a better prognosis of COVID-19.

About this study

In this clinical trial the investigators want to evaluate if standard treatment together with Maraviroc (MVC) compared to standard treatment alone, achieves better clinical evolution in participants hospitalized for COVID-19.

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

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

  • Laboratory abnormalities.
  • Concomitant use of drugs with major pharmacological interactions with the study drugs, according to the respective technical specifications of the products.
  • Pregnancy.

Treatment and study plan

Maraviroc experimental group

Drug

300-milligram dose of the drug two times daily , oral way. During 14 days.

standard treatment

Other

It is based on the treatment protocol for hospitalized COVID-19 patients and that will depend on the clinical status of the patient.

Primary outcomes

  1. Evaluate the efficacy of Maraviroc in SARS-CoV-2 infected patients hospitalized for COVID-19 using the Ordinal scale.

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Ordinal scale: (1) Not hospitalized, without limitations in activities; (2) Not hospitalized, limitations in activities; (3) Hospitalized, with no oxygen supplement requirement; (4) Hospitalized, requiring supplemental oxygen; (5) Hospitalized, with non-invasive ventilation or high flow oxygen device or oxygen mask with reservoir); (6) Hospitalized, with invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); (7) Death. treatment versus standard treatment, in relation to the clinical progression of COVID-19 in hospitalized patients.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Analyze changes in analytical variables: changes in ambient air oxygen saturation (SatO2),related to the progression of COVID-19.

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Analytical variables related to the progression of COVID-19: changes in ambient air oxygen saturation (SatO2) (mmHg).

  2. Study the variation in the number of biomarkers of inflammation.

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Changes in levels of macrophage inflammatory proteins-1 α (MIP-1 α), MIP-1 β, regulated on activation normal T cell expressed and secreted (RANTES), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, interferon-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), IL-1β, TNF-α, gamma interferon (IFN-γ), soluble cluster of differentiation 25 (CD25), β2 microglobulin, dimers D, soluble cluster of differentiation 14 (CD14), soluble cluster of differentiation 40 (CD40) ligand and soluble cluster of differentiation 163 (CD163).

  3. Analyze changes in the number of innate immune activation (monocytes and dendritic cells) and adaptive (T lymphocytes).

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Changes in levels subpopulations (classical, intermediate and non-classical monocytes) and activation markers in them. Dendritic cell subpopulations (myeloid and plasmacytoid dendritic cells) and their activation markers. Subpopulations of T lymphocytes (naive, central memory, effector memory and terminally differentiated) and markers of activation, senescence and wasting in them.

  4. Quantify the number of immunomodulatory treatments added to therapy

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Quantification of additional treatments added to the administered therapy , this is immunomodulatory treatments such as: IL-6,or IL-1 inhibitors, high-dose corticosteroids, anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) antibodies, janus kinases (JAK) kinase inhibitors or any other immunomodulatory effect and / or under investigation

  5. Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v4.0

  6. Analyze changes in analytical variables:changes in neutrophils, related to the progression of COVID-19.

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days

    Changes in levels of neutrophils in blood (x10e9/L)

  7. Analyze changes in analytical variables: changes in platelets, related to the progression of COVID-19.

    Time frame: Baseline, change from baseline at 7 days, change from baseline at 14 days, change from baseline at 21 days and change from baseline at 28 days
