A plain-language read of the study's public EU CTIS listing. The study team confirms the details.

Who can take part

You may be able to join if

  • 1. 12 to <18 years of age, weighing at least 40 kg, or ≥18 years of age of any weight at screening.
  • 2. Presence of risk factors for progression to severe COVID-19 at the time of screening based on age.
  • 3. Confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection as determined by RAT in nasal or NP specimen collected within 1 day prior to randomization.
  • 4. Participants must be unable or unwilling to take nirmatrelvir/ritonavir treatment.

You likely can't join if

  • 1. Current need or anticipated need for hospitalization within 24 hours, due to signs of severe COVID-19 illness (eg, SpO2 <94% on room air, respiratory rate >30 breaths/minute, or lung infiltrates >50%) or due to other medical conditions requiring hospitalization in the opinion of the site investigator.
  • 5. Ongoing Long COVID or PASC diagnosis.
  • 6. Severely immunocompromised
  • 7. Any comorbidity requiring hospitalization and/or surgery within 7 days prior to study entry, or that is considered life threatening within 30 days prior to study entry, as determined by the investigator.
  • 9. 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.
  • 10. Current use of any prohibited concomitant medication(s).
