Abstract
Rationale: Markers of neutrophilic inflammation, including neutrophil serine proteases, are increased in severe and fatal COVID-19 infection. We investigated whether treatment with Brensocatib, an oral inhibitor of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-1 (DPP1) which reduces neutrophilic inflammation, would improve clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. Methods: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial was conducted in 14 UK hospitals(ISRCTN30564012). Patients were randomized to receive Brensocatib (25mg/day) or placebo for28 days. Inclusion criteria required confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection with at least one risk factor for severe disease (requirement for supplementary oxygen, oxygen saturation less than 94% on room air, radiographic infiltrates, evidence of pulmonary involvement in physical examination or lymphocyte count
