Study on COVID-19 Prevention Using Sipavibart and Cilgavimab for Patients with Weakened Immune Systems

3 1 1

What is this study about?

This clinical trial is focused on studying the prevention of COVID-19, a disease caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, in people with weakened immune systems. The study will test a new treatment called Sipavibart (also known by its code name AZD3152), which is a type of protein designed to help the body fight off the virus. Another treatment being studied is EVUSHELD, which contains a protein called cilgavimab. Both treatments are given as injections. The study will also use a substance called sodium chloride as a comparison.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of these treatments in preventing symptoms of COVID-19. Participants will receive either Sipavibart, EVUSHELD, or a placebo. The study will monitor participants over a period of time to see if they develop symptoms of COVID-19 and to assess any side effects from the treatments. The study will also look at how well the treatments work against different variants of the virus.

Participants in the study will be monitored for any side effects and the occurrence of COVID-19 symptoms. The study will also measure the levels of the treatments in the body over time. This research aims to provide valuable information on how these treatments can help protect people with immune system challenges from COVID-19.

1 initial visit

Upon joining the study, you will attend an initial visit. During this visit, a rapid antigen test will be conducted to ensure you are negative for COVID-19. This is a necessary step before receiving any study medication.

You will be asked to provide written informed consent, confirming your understanding of the study and your willingness to participate. If you are between 12 and 18 years old, your parent or legal guardian will also need to provide consent, and you will sign an assent form.

2 medication administration

You will receive an injection of the study medication. The medication options include AZD3152, EVUSHELD, or a placebo. The injection is given intramuscularly, which means it is administered into a muscle.

The dosage for EVUSHELD is 150 mg of each component, cilgavimab, and tixagevimab, in a solution for injection. The frequency and duration of administration will be determined by the study protocol.

3 monitoring and follow-up

After receiving the medication, you will be monitored for any side effects or adverse events. This monitoring will continue for approximately 90 days after each administration of the study medication.

You will have follow-up visits to assess your health and the effectiveness of the medication in preventing symptomatic COVID-19. These visits will include evaluations of any symptoms you may experience and additional tests as required by the study.

4 completion of study participation

Your participation in the study will continue until the study’s estimated end date, which is February 7, 2025, unless you choose to withdraw earlier.

At the end of your participation, you will have a final visit to review your health status and any outcomes related to the study.

  • Sentinel Safety Cohort: Must weigh between 45 kg (about 99 pounds) and 110 kg (about 243 pounds) at screening.
  • Sentinel Safety Cohort: Must be able to understand and follow all study requirements, with help if needed, as assessed by the study doctor.
  • Main Cohort: Must be 12 years or older at the time of signing the consent form.
  • Main Cohort: Must provide written consent and any required local authorization before any study procedures. For those aged 12 to under 18, a parent or guardian must also give consent, and the participant will sign an assent form.
  • Main Cohort: Must have a negative rapid antigen test before receiving the study treatment at the first visit.

Who Cannot Join the Study?

  • Patients who are currently infected with COVID-19 cannot participate.
  • Patients who have had a severe allergic reaction to similar medications in the past are not eligible.
  • Patients with a history of severe heart problems are excluded.
  • Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding cannot take part in the study.
  • Patients who are participating in another clinical trial at the same time are not allowed.
  • Patients with a weakened immune system, which means their body has trouble fighting infections, are excluded.
  • Patients who have received a COVID-19 vaccine within the last 30 days are not eligible.
  • Patients with any other medical condition that the study doctors think would make it unsafe for them to participate are excluded.

Trial locations

AZD3152 is a medication being studied to see if it can help prevent COVID-19 in people who have weakened immune systems. This medication is being tested to understand how well it can stop the virus from causing symptoms, especially in people who might not respond well to vaccines.

EVUSHELD is a combination of two antibodies that are designed to help prevent COVID-19 infection. It works by giving your body extra help to fight off the virus, especially if your immune system is not strong enough to do it on its own. This medication is being compared to others to see how effective it is in preventing COVID-19 symptoms.

AZD5156 is another medication being tested in this study. It is being evaluated for its safety and how well it can prevent COVID-19 in people with immune system challenges. The goal is to see if it can be a safe option for protecting against the virus in those who are more vulnerable.

COVID-19 – COVID-19 is an infectious disease caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2. It primarily affects the respiratory system, leading to symptoms such as fever, cough, and difficulty breathing. The disease can progress to more severe respiratory issues, including pneumonia and acute respiratory distress syndrome. COVID-19 spreads through respiratory droplets when an infected person coughs, sneezes, or talks. The virus can also spread by touching surfaces contaminated with the virus and then touching the face. The progression and severity of the disease can vary widely among individuals.
