PHASE3

Brief Summary

RACONA is a prospective trial that will test the hypothesis that nafamostat can lower lung function deterioration and need for intensive care admission in COVID-19 patients. Design: Adult hospitalize...

Detailed Description

Purpose: SARS-Cov-2 enters the lung cells by binding to ACE-2 and activating the protease TMPRSS2, which, therefore, can be a target for antiviral treatment. Accordingly, TMPRSS2 inhibitors prevent SA...

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Hospitalized, COVID-19 positive, between 18 and ≤ 85 years of age;
  • Signed Inform Consent Form;
  • Body temperature \> 37.3 ℃;
  • Oxygenation criterion (any of the following): i) Oxygen saturation ≤94% on Room Air; ii) PaO2/FiO2 ratio ≤300 mmHg but \> 100 mmHg, if patient on supplemental oxygen; iii) SpO2/FiO2\<200 if no arterial blood gas available;
  • Respiratory rate (RR) ≥ 25 beats/min.

Exclusion

  • Pregnant or lactating females;
  • Unwillingness or inability to complete the study.
  • Rapidly deteriorating clinical condition or low likelihood to complete the study according to the investigator;
  • eGFR \< 30 ml/min/m2 assessed with CKD EPI formula;
  • Current or chronic history of liver disease (Child Pugh score ≥ 10), or known hepatic or biliary abnormalities;
  • Participation in a clinical trial with an investigational product within the following time period prior to the first dosing day in the current study: 5 half-lives or twice the duration of the biological effect of the investigational product (whichever is longer);
  • Patients requiring high doses of loop diuretics (i.e. \> 240 mg furosemide daily) with significant intravascular volume depletion, as assessed clinically;
  • History of allergy;
  • History of sensitivity to heparin or heparin-induced thrombocytopenia;
  • Unstable hemodynamics in the preceding 4 hours (SBP \< 90 mmHg, and/or vasoactive agents required);
  • Hemoglobin \< 7 at time of drug infusion. Transfusion is allowed to increase hemoglobin levels before entry into the study;
  • Malignancy or any other condition for which estimated 6-month mortality \>50%;
  • Arterial blood pH less than 7.2;
  • Known evidence of chronic interstitial infiltration at imaging;
  • Known hospitalization within the past six months for respiratory failure (PaCO2 \> 50 mmHg or PaO2 \< 55 mmHg, or oxygen saturation \<88% on FiO2 = 0.21);
  • Known chronic vascular disease resulting in severe exercise restriction (i.e. unable to perform household duties);
  • Known secondary polycythemia, severe pulmonary hypertension, or ventilator dependency;
  • Known vasculitis with diffuse alveolar hemorrhage;.
  • Pre-existing renal failure on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis requiring renal replacement therapy;
  • Extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO);
  • Immunosuppressive treatment;
  • Patient in trials for COVID-19 within 30 days before;
  • Unstable hemodynamics in the preceding 4 hours (MAP ≤ 65 mmHg, or SAP \< 90 mmHg, DAP \< 60 mmHg, and vasoactive agents required);
  • Hyperkalemia , i.e. serum K+ levels \> 5.0 mEq/L;
  • Severe active bleeding;
  • Any other uncontrolled comorbidities that increase the risks associated with the study drug administration, as assessed by the medical expert team.
