Summary

Comparison of the effects of CYT107 vs Placebo administered IM at 10g/ kg twice a week for two weeks on immune reconstitution of lymphopenic COVID-19 patients.

Description

Approximately forty-eight (48) participants will be randomized 1:1 to receive (a) Intramuscular (IM) administration of CYT107 at 3 g/kg followed, after 48hrs of observation, by 10 g/kg twice a week for 2 weeks or (b) Intramuscular (IM) placebo (normal saline) at the same frequency. An interim safety review will take place after the first 12 patients. If the CYT107 is well tolerated, the test dose (3 g/kg) will cease and that initial dose will become the same as the rest of the doses (10 g/kg). So, the remaining patients will be randomized to receive 5 administrations of (a) CYT107 at 10 g/kg every 3 to 4 days for 2 weeks or (b) Intramuscular (IM) placebo (normal saline) at the same frequency. The aim of the study is to test the ability of CYT107 to produce an immune reconstitution of these patients and observe possible association with a clinical improvement

Eligibility

Yes No Not Sure

Inclusion Criteria

A written, signed informed consent, or emergency oral consent, by the patient or the patient's legally authorized representative, and the anticipated ability for participant to be re-consented in the future for ongoing Study participation
Men and women aged 25 - 80 (included) years of age
Hospitalized patients with two absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) 1000 cells/mm3, at two time points at least 24 hours apart, following
HOSPITALIZATION
The FIRST time point should not be performed earlier than 48 hours after
Hospitalization, thus first test dose can't be administered before 72 hours
after hospitalization (From this time point the investigator may choose to
further postpone the commencement of IL-7 (CYT107) treatment according to
patient's clinical status)
Hospitalized patients with moderate to severe hypoxemia requiring oxygen therapy at >4L per minute nasal cannula or greater to keep saturations >90%, non-invasive positive pressure ventilation (e.g., BIPAP), or patients intubated/ventilated for respiratory failure
Confirmed infection with COVID-19 by any acceptable test available/ utilized at each site
Patient with medical insurance or government support

Exclusion Criteria

Pregnancy or breast feeding
Refusal or inability to practice contraception regardless of the gender of the patient
ALT and/or AST > 5 x ULN
Known, active auto-immune disease
Ongoing cancer treatment with chemotherapy / immunotherapy or any cancer therapy within last 3 months and/or ongoing
Patients with past history of Solid Organ transplant
Active tuberculosis, uncontrolled active HBV or HCV infection, HIV with positive viral load
Hospitalized patients with refractory hypoxia, defined as inability to maintain saturation >85% with maximal available therapy for >6 hours
Patients receiving any agent with immune suppressive effects, other than steroids at dosages less than 300 mg/day and/or anti-IL6 treatments like Tocilizumab or Sarilumab which should preferably be minimized
Presence of any of the following abnormal laboratory values at screening: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) < 1.5x109/L, Platelets < 50,000 per mm3
Patients with uncontrolled pre-existing severe major organ dysfunction (cardiac, liver or renal failure)
Vaccination with live attenuated vaccines in the month preceding the inclusion
Use of chronic oral corticosteroids 10mg prednisone equivalent a day for a non-COVID-19 related condition
Patients with baseline Rockwood Clinical Frailty Scale 6
Patients with known hypersensitivity to natural or recombinant Interleukin-7 or to any of the excipients
Patients under guardianship
