The purpose of this study is to establish the safety and tolerability, along with preliminary evidence of efficacy, of LB1148 compared to placebo in hospitalized patients with moderate to severe coronavirus disease (COVID-19). All patients will be randomized into one of two treatment groups (LB1148 or Placebo) in a 1:1 ratio, and stratified by peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) ? 93% on room air vs. < 93% on room air, and by PF ratio (PaO2, arterial oxygen partial pressure, to FiO2, fractional inspired oxygen) of ? 300 mmHg vs. PF ratio of < 300 mmHg at the time of Screening. (If PaO2 cannot be measured or acquired, SpO2 may be substituted to calculate the PF ratio.) LB1148 contains 7.5 g tranexamic acid (TXA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), glucose, and electrolytes. A total of 700 mL of LB1148 will be administered enterally, as a split dose (350 mL, every 12 hours). Study drug is given as a single bolus, to be delivered orally or via nasogastric (NG) or orogastric (OG) tube. For those patients assigned to placebo, a total of 700 mL of placebo will be administered enterally, as a split dose (350 mL, every 12 hours). The placebo contains PEG, glucose, and electrolytes.
