AN INTERVENTIONAL EFFICACY AND SAFETY, PHASE 3, RANDOMIZED, DOUBLE-BLIND, 3-ARM STUDY TO INVESTIGATE IBUZATRELVIR IN ADULTS WITH SYMPTOMATIC COVID-19 WHO ARE SEVERELY IMMUNOCOMPROMISED

A Study to Learn About the Study Medicine Ibuzatrelvir in Adults With COVID-19 Who Are Severely Immunocompromised (NCT07013474) is a Phase 3 interventional studying COVID-19 Infection, sponsored by Pfizer. RECRUITING as of the most recent ClinicalTrials.gov update. Talk to your doctor before contacting the trial site.

About This Trial

This is a Phase 3, randomized, actively controlled, double-blinded, double-dummy, superiority study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of ibuzatrelvir alone and in combination with remdesivir IV compared to remdesivir IV alone for the treatment of symptomatic COVID-19 in severely immunocompromised adult participants who are non-hospitalized or are hospitalized for observation or study intervention administration but do not require supplemental oxygen for COVID-19.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 3 trials confirm efficacy and safety in large patient groups (often 300–3,000+) and form the evidence base for an FDA approval submission. For COVID-19 Infection, Phase 3 studies typically randomize participants between the investigational treatment and either a placebo or current standard of care. A successful Phase 3 result is the threshold most treatments need to clear before regulatory approval.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

A target enrollment of 300 participants makes this a sizable late-stage trial. Studies in this range typically have enough power to detect clinically meaningful differences from a comparator and to characterize less-common side effects.

Who May Be Eligible (Plain English)

Who May Qualify: 1. 18 years of age or older at screening who are non-hospitalized or hospitalized for observation or with the intent of administering the study intervention. 2. Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by RAT (or other locally approved test) collected within 2 days prior to randomization. Initial onset of symptoms attributable to COVID-19 within 5 days prior to the day of randomization and at least 1 of the specified symptoms attributable to COVID-19 present on the day of randomization. 3. Severely immunocompromised due to: - Solid organ or islet cell transplant recipient who is receiving immunosuppressive therapy; - Active hematologic malignancy (eg, chronic lymphocytic leukemia, non-Hodgkin lymphoma, multiple myeloma, acute leukemia); - Receipt of CAR-T-cell therapy or HCT either within 2 years of transplantation or who are receiving immunosuppressive therapy; - Currently receiving or recently received B-cell depleting therapies (eg, rituximab), where the immunosuppressive effect is still ongoing. Who Should NOT Join This Trial: 1. Severe COVID-19, or current need for supplemental oxygen for treatment of COVID-19. 2. Receiving dialysis or have current kidney failure (ie, eGFR consistently \<15 mL/min/1.73 m2) 3. Active liver disease 4. History of hypersensitivity or other contraindication to any of the components of the study interventions, as determined by the investigator 5. Suspected or confirmed concurrent active systemic infection other than COVID-19 that may interfere with the evaluation of response to the study intervention. 6. Life expectancy less than 30 days at study entry due to an underlying condition, in the judgement of the investigator. 7. Any medical or psychiatric condition including recent (within the past year) or active suicidal ideation/behavior or laboratory abnormality that may increase the risk of study participation or, in the investigator's judgment, make the participant inappropriate for the study. ...See full criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov Always talk to your doctor about whether this trial is right for you.

Is participating in a clinical trial safe?

Clinical trials in the United States are regulated by the FDA and overseen by Institutional Review Boards (IRBs) that review the protocol for safety.
