A Phase 2/3 interventional study of IFX-1 + BSC and BSC in Severe COVID-19 Pneumonia, sponsored by InflaRx GmbH. Completed at 48 sites in 9 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2023-06-05.
Sponsored by InflaRx GmbH · Phase 2/3, Interventional, and Treatment
Phase II \& Phase III:
This is a pragmatic, adaptive, randomized, multicenter phase II/III study evaluating IFX-1 for the treatment of COVID-19 related severe pneumonia. The study consists of two parts: Phase II, an open-label, randomized, 2-arm phase evaluating best supportive care (BSC) + IFX-1 (Arm A) and BSC alone (Arm B); and Phase III, a double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized phase comparing standard of care (SOC) + IFX-1 (Arm A) versus SOC + placebo-to-match (Arm B)
The phase II and Phase III portions enrolled patients subsequently.
1st patient was enrolled in the phase III portion on 1st October 2020.
7,990 studies on the registry are indexed under COVID-19; 466 are open to participants now.
This study's enrollment of 399 is above the median of 102 across 4,364 interventional studies indexed under COVID-19.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: long-term lung disease that makes it hard to breathe out, including emphysema and chronic bronchitis.
Anti-inflammatory medicines such as prednisone, prednisolone and dexamethasone — not the anabolic steroids used for muscle.
Studies differ in what they allow: check which steroid medicines, routes (tablets, injections, creams, inhalers, eye drops) and doses this study accepts.
The New York Heart Association’s four classes of how much heart failure limits physical activity.
Studies set their own limit — many outside heart failure leave out class III–IV, while heart failure studies may ask for a particular class. Check the class this study names.
A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.
It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.
The share of blood the heart’s main pumping chamber (the left ventricle) pushes out with each beat, measured by an echocardiogram (heart ultrasound) or a MUGA scan. About 50–70% is normal.
A score of how well the liver works in people with liver disease such as cirrhosis: class A is mild, B moderate and C severe.
