1 A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Study of the Safety and Efficacy of Losmapimod in Adult Subjects With COVID-19 (LOSVID STUDY)

The therapeutic hypothesis for the use of losmapimod in COVID-19 disease is that increased mortality and severe disease is caused by p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-mediated exaggerated acute inflammatory response resulting from SARS-CoV-2 infection. The study Sponsor hypothesize's that the early initiation of p38α/β inhibitor therapy in patients hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 who are at increased risk of a poor prognosis based on older age and elevated systemic inflammation will reduce clinical deterioration including progression to respiratory failure and death. To address this hypothesis, Fulcrum Therapeutics is conducting a Phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study that will evaluate the safety and efficacy of losmapimod versus placebo in subjects 50 and older who are hospitalized with moderate COVID-19 disease.

NCT04511819 COVID-19 Drug: Losmapimod oral tablet Drug: Placebo oral tablet

Primary Outcomes

Description: The efficacy of Losmapimod will be assessed by the development of progression to critical disease as evidence of mortality or development of respiratory failure by Day 28.

Measure: Day 28 Mortality

Time: Day 28

Secondary Outcomes

Description: The change from baseline in clinical disease status will be evaluated using the 9-point World Health Organization (WHO) ordinal scale: 0 indicating, no clinical evidence of SARS-CoV-2 infection and 8 indicating death.

Measure: Clinical Status Assessment

Time: Day 7 and Day 14

Description: The response to treatment with Losmapimod in COVID-19 patients will be assessed by the total number of study days not requiring oxygen supplementation.

Measure: Respiratory Failure Assessment

Time: Day 28

Description: To assess the effect on survival following treatment with Losmapimod, mortality will be evaluated by the number of days alive by Day 28.

Measure: Treatment Survival

Time: Day 28

Description: To evaluate the safety and tolerability of Losmapimod, the incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events will be assessed by clinically significant changes in laboratory test results and vital signs.

Measure: Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

Time: Screening, Date of enrollment and Days 2-14 and 7 and 14 days after the last dose of study drug

Description: To characterize changes in SARS-CoV-2 infection following treatment with losmapimod versus placebo.

Measure: Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events

Time: Day 7

Other Outcomes

Description: The change from baseline in levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a biomarker of systemic inflammatory response to infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus will be evaluated in serum by immunoturbidimetric assay.

Measure: Changes in C-Reactive Protein

Time: Days 1, 4, 7 and 14

Description: The change from baseline in the levels of cytokines ( IFNγ, IL-2, IL-10 in normalized protein expression (NPX) and chemokines (CXCL10, CXCL9 in normalized protein expression (NPX)) in response to the SARS-CoV-2 virus in serum will be evaluated by Olink immunoassay panel.

Measure: Changes in Circulating Proteins

Time: Days 1, 4, 7 and 14
