Experimental: AT-527
Participants will receive 550 mg AT-527 twice a day (BID) in Cohort A and 1100 mg AT-527 BID in Cohort B.
|
Drug: AT-527
Results from Cohort A determined the dose and regimen to be used for Cohort B.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo |
Drug: Placebo
The dose and regimen of the placebo will match that of the respective AT-527 comparator arm. |
- Change from Baseline in the Amount of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) Virus RNA [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA will be measured by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).
- Time to Cessation of SARS-CoV-2 Viral Shedding [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]Time to cessation of viral shedding is defined as the time between the initiation of any study treatment and first time when the virus RNA by RT-PCR is below the limit of detection.
- Time to Sustained Non-Detectable SARS-CoV-2 Virus RNA [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]Time to sustained non-detectable SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA is defined as the time from initiation of study treatment to the last timepoint when the virus RNA by RT-PCR is below the limit of detection.
- Proportion of Participants Positive for SARS-CoV-2 Virus RNA at Specified Timepoints [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]
- Area Under the Curve (AUC) in the Amount of SARS-CoV-2 Virus RNA [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]AUC in the amount of SARS-CoV-2 virus RNA from baseline to the last sample timepoint.
- Time to Alleviation or Improvement of COVID-19 Symptoms (21.5 hours) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]Alleviation of symptoms is defined as the length of time taken from start of treatment to the point at which a Score of 0 or 1 has been maintained for a duration of at least 21.5 hours. Improvement of symptoms is defined as at least a single category improvement from baseline on the Likert scale.
- Time to Alleviation or Improvement of COVID-19 Symptoms (43 hours) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]Alleviation of symptoms is defined as the length of time taken from start of treatment to the point at which a Score of 0 or 1 has been maintained for a duration of at least 43 hours. Improvement of symptoms is defined as at least a single category improvement from baseline on the Likert scale.
- Time to Alleviation of COVID-19 Symptoms (21.5 hours) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]Alleviation of symptoms is defined as the length of time taken from start of treatment to the point at which the following criteria are met and maintained for at least 21.5 hours: Score of 0 or 1 on Items 1-12 of the COVID-19 Symptom Diary (without consideration for presence of pre-existing symptoms).
- Time to Alleviation of COVID-19 Symptoms (43 hours) [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]Alleviation of symptoms is defined as the length of time taken from start of treatment to the point at which the following criteria are met and maintained for at least 43 hours: Score of 0 or 1 on Items 1-12 of the COVID-19 Symptom Diary (without consideration for presence of pre-existing symptoms).
- Duration of Fever [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]Defined as the time to return to an afebrile state (temperature ≤ 37.5°C) maintained for at least 21.5 hours
- Frequency of COVID-19 Related Complications [ Time Frame: Up to 33 Days ]Examples of COVID-19 related complications include death, hospitalization, radiologically confirmed pneumonia, acute respiratory failure, sepsis, coagulopathy, pericarditis, myocarditis, and cardiac failure.
- Time to Alleviation of an Individual Symptom [ Time Frame: Up to 28 Days ]
Time to alleviation of an individual symptom is defined as the time taken from the start of treatment to the point at which the following criterion is met and maintained (for each individual symptom) for at least 21.5 hours:
- Score of 0 or 1 for Items 1-12 of the COVID-19 Symptom Diary.
- Score of 0 for Items 13 and 14 of the COVID-19 Symptom Diary.
- Percentage of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: Up to 33 Days ]
- Plasma Concentration of AT-511, AT-551, AT-229 and AT-273 [ Time Frame: Up to Day 7 ]AT-511 is the free base form of AT-527. Its major metabolites are AT-551, AT-229, and AT 273.
