Summary

Vascular leakage following endothelial injury, responsible for interstitial and alveolar edema, is a major feature of pathogen induced acute lung injury. As acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) due to pandemic Covid-19 is associated with more than 60% mortality, controlling vascular leakage may be a major target to decrease the mortality associated with the spreading of the disease in France.

FX06, a drug under clinical development containing fibrin-derived peptide beta15-42, is able to stabilize cell-cell interactions, thereby reducing vascular leak and mortality in several animal models, particularly during lipopolysaccharide-induced and dengue hemorrhagic shock . A phase I study was conducted in humans, with no specific adverse event detected with a dose up to 17.5 mg/kg. In a phase II randomized multicentre double-blinded trial in 234 patients suffering from ST+ acute coronary syndrome, FX06 treated patients exhibited a 58% decrease in the early necrotic core zone. Importantly, adverse events were highly comparable between groups, indicating a high safety profile for the drug . Lastly, the drug was used as a salvage therapy in a patient exhibiting a severe ARDS following EBOLA virus infection . Altogether, those data indicate that FX06 is well tolerated in humans and is a potent regulator of vascular leakage.

Our hypothesis here is that FX06 may decrease pulmonary vascular hyperpermeability during ARDS following SARS-CoV-2 infection, thereby improving gas exchanges and the outcome of infected patients.
