Post# of 148292
The purpose of this clinical trial was to assess the safety and efficacy of leronlimab administered as weekly subcutaneous injection in subjects experiencing prolonged symptoms (> 12 weeks) of COVID-19. The primary outcome was change from baseline in daily COVID-19-related symptom severity score through Day 56. Secondary outcomes included progression (or worsening) of COVID-19-associated symptoms through Day 56 compared to baseline. Patient symptoms were self-reported daily throughout the 56-day evaluation period and reported electronically. The symptom scores were rated as severe, moderate, mild, and none.

Phase 1 Trials
This phase occurs directly after lab testing. Based on the lab testing, researchers have determined that the drug, device or other treatment may provide a benefit to humans. However, at this point, it has not yet been determined how the drug will affect or react to a human’s biology, or whether it’s safe or even effective. Phase 1 usually consists of a very small number of participants — either mostly healthy subjects or patients, such as terminal cancer patients — and is conducted to evaluate the drug’s overall safety and determine the safest dose of the drug.
