Conestat Alfa in the Prevention of Severe SARS-CoV-2 Infection in Hospitalized Patients With COVID-19
Stopped: Aim to enroll 120 patients deemed not sufficient to show a difference in the primary outcome measure. Standard of care treatment recently changed in Switzerland adding further heterogeneity to trial population when including future participants.
The aim of this study is to analyze if administration of conestat alfa for 72 hours in addition to standard of care (SOC) in patients hospitalized with non-critical SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia (WHO Ordinal Scale Score 3 or 4) reduces the risk of disease progression to Acute Lung Injury (ALI) and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS).

Inclusion Criteria:
* Informed Consent as documented by signature
* admitted to the hospital because of confirmed (by a positive SARS-CoV-2 PCR result) COVID-19 infection
* evidence of pulmonary involvement on CT scan or X-ray of the chest (e.g. ground glass opacities)
* symptom onset within the previous 10 days OR shortness of breath within the previous 5 days. Symptoms include fever or one respiratory symptom (patients presenting later may have already progressed to an inflammatory state that is potentially not amenable to C1INH treatment). Respiratory symptoms include cough, sore throat, hemoptysis, shortness of breath, runny nose, or chest pain.
* expected to remain an inpatient over the next three calender days from time of enrolment
* at least one additional risk factor for progression to mechanical ventilation: 1) arterial hypertension, 2) \>50 years, 3) obesity (BMI\>30.0 kg/m2), 4) cardiovascular disease, 5) chronic pulmonary disease, 7) chronic renal disease, 6) C-reactive protein of \>35mg/L, 7) oxygen saturation at rest in ambient air of \<94%. Cardiovascular disease includes a history of coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease, peripheral artery disease, rheumatic heart disease, congenital heart disease and of recent (\< 3 months) deep vein thrombosis or pulmonary embolism. Chronic pulmonary disease includes a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, occupational lung disease, interstitial lung disease or of pulmonary hypertension. Chro…
