These two Phase 3 trials will be conducted in up to 45 clinical sites. The critically ill protocol is for 306 patients while the severe protocol is for 594 patients, and interim analysis for both populations will be conducted when enrollment reaches about 40% of the total number for each trial.

We look forward to continuing to identify partnerships in other countries experiencing a surge in COVID-19 cases similar to Brazil, the Philippines and India where leronlimab could potentially save lives. We will update investors on the next investment community call on the design of these trials based on the wealth of information we have learned from our previous COVID-19 trials.”
