Disponible en: https://repositorio.uca.edu.ar/handle/123456789/11639 | Resumen : | Abstract: Background: passive immunotherapy is a therapeutic alternative for patients with COVID-19. Equine polyclonal antibodies (EpAbs) could represent a source of scalable neutralizing antibodies against SARS-CoV-2. Methods: we conducted a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled trial to assess efficacy and safety of EpAbs (INM005) in hospitalized adult patients with moderate and severe COVID-19 pneumonia in 19 hospitals of Argentina. Primary endpoint was improvement in at least two categories in WHO ordinal clinical scale at day 28 or hospital discharge (ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT04494984). Findings: between August 1st and October 26th, 2020, a total of 245 patients were enrolled. Enrolled patients were assigned to receive two blinded doses of INM005 (n = 118) or placebo (n = 123). Median age was 54 years old, 65 1% were male and 61% had moderate disease at baseline. Median time from symptoms onset to study treatment was 6 days (interquartile range 5 to 8). No statistically significant difference was noted between study groups on primary endpoint (risk difference [95% IC]: 5 28% [-3 95; 14 50]; p = 0 15). Rate of improvement in at least two categories was statistically significantly higher for INM005 at days 14 and 21 of follow-up. Time to improvement in two ordinal categories or hospital discharge was 14 2 (§ 0 7) days in the INM005 group and 16 3 (§ 0 7) days in the placebo group, hazard ratio 1 31 (95% CI 1 0 to 1 74). Subgroup analyses showed a beneficial effect of INM005 over severe patients and in those with negative baseline antibodies. Overall mortality was 6 9% the INM005 group and 11 4% in the placebo group (risk difference [95% IC]: 0 57 [0 24 to 1 37]). Adverse events of special interest were mild or moderate; no anaphylaxis was reported. Interpretation: Albeit not having reached the primary endpoint, we found clinical improvement of hospitalized patients with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, particularly those with severe disease. | URI : | https://repositorio.uca.edu.ar/handle/123456789/11639 | ISSN : | 2589-5370 | Disciplina: | MEDICINA | DOI: | https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eclinm.2021.100843 | Derechos: | Acceso abierto |
