Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Safety of LAM-002A: Occurrence of TEAEs and SAEs
24 Weeks

Number of Participants with Treatment-Related Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Serious Adverse Events

Tolerability of LAM-002A: Completion of Core Study Treatment
12 Weeks

The percentage of participants who complete 12 weeks on study treatment during the Core Study.

Plasma Pharmacokinetics of LAM-002A and Major Metabolites
24 Weeks

The concentration of LAM-002A and its major metabolites (STA-5908, STA-5944, and STA-6048) in plasma.

CSF Pharmacokinetics of LAM-002A and Major Metabolites
24 Weeks

The concentration of LAM-002A and its major metabolites (STA-5908, STA-5944, and STA-6048) cerebral spinal fluid (CSF).

Viral Load Change
4 Days

The primary efficacy outcome measure evaluated change in SARS-CoV-2 viral load at Day 4 from Day 1, of LAM-002A or placebo-treated participants. SARS-CoV-2 viral load was measured by a real-time quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) test of nasopharyngeal samples. Analysis focused on log10 viral load on Day 4 compared to baseline viral load at Day 1 in participants with baseline viral load \>100,000 copies/mL

Determination of the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of Continuous Oral LAM-002A
28 days

MTD was determined by testing increasing doses up to 125 mg twice a day or 75 mg three times a day orally on dose escalation cohorts with 3 to 6 participants each. In the dose escalation, the cohort sizes of 3 to 6 subjects allow evaluation of regimen safety using a standard definition of MTD (ie, the highest starting dose associated with DLT in \<33% of subjects during the first cycle of therapy) when administered continuously (daily administration) and then when administered intermittently (repeated courses of 3 days on and 4 days off).
