Randomized Controlled Trial Multicenter Study
FX06 to rescue SARS-CoV-2-induced acute respiratory distress syndrome: a randomized clinical trial.
Vascular leakage is a major feature of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of FX06, a drug under development that stabilizes interendothelial cell junctions, at reducing vascular leakage during SARS-CoV-2-induced ARDS. ⋯ In this unique-dosing-regimen study, FX06 did not lower SARS-CoV-2-induced pulmonary vascular leakage. Future investigations will need to evaluate its efficacy at earlier times during the disease or using other regimens. Trial registration NCT04618042. Registered 5 November 2020.
