A Single-center Registry and Embedded Interventional Study of the Effects of COVID-19 With and Without Treatment With AT-001 on Cardiac Structure and Function in Patients Hospitalized for Management of COVID-19 Infection
In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating AT-001 for COVID-19. Completed, enrolled 81 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
Cardiometabolic disease may confer increased risk of adverse outcomes in COVID-19 patients by activation of the aldose reductase pathway, a trigger of the inflammatory cascade. The study team hypothesizes that aldose reductase inhibition with AT-001 (caficrestat) might represent a novel therapeutic approach to reduce inflammation and risk of adverse outcomes in diabetic patients with COVID-19. An open-label pilot study to assess safety, tolerability and efficacy of AT-001 in hospitalized COVID-19 patients with history of diabetes mellitus and heart disease will be conducted. Eligible participants will be treated with AT-001 1500 mg twice daily for up to 14 days. Safety, tolerability, survival and length of hospital stay data were compared with matched controls from a contemporaneous registry of COVID-19 patients.
