Brief Summary:
This clinical trial will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of GLS-1027 in the prevention of severe pneumonitis caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Pneumonitis SARS-CoV Infection Drug: GLS-1027 Drug: Placebo Phase 2

Detailed Description:
This Phase II randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, study will assess 2 different doses of GLS-1027 in the prevention of severe pneumonitis among those hospitalized with PCR confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. Subjects will be randomized at a 1:1:1 ratio to either Standard of Care (SOC) plus placebo, or SOC plus GLS-1027 at either 120 mg or 360 mg daily. Clinical status will be monitored through 56 days from the initiation of treatment.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Incidence of serious adverse events relative to treatment group [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  2. Incidence of treatment failure at day 28 from enrollment [ Time Frame: 28 days ]

Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Assess the number of days of hospitalization relative to treatment group [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  2. Assess the number of days requiring ICU care relative to treatment group [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  3. Assess the number of days of NIV, high-flow O2, or mechanical ventilation relative to treatment [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  4. Assess the maximal level of Positive End-Expiratory Pressure (PEEP) for subjects who are intubated relative to treatment group. [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  5. Assess the number of days of PEEP > 5 cm H2O for subjects who are intubated relative to treatment group [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
  6. Difference in WHO Classification level at day 28 from enrollment [ Time Frame: 28 days ]
