Study Design
This is a Phase III, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study to assess the efficacy and safety of TCZ in combination with SOC compared with placebo in combination with SOC in hospitalized adult patients with COVID-19. The Sponsor intends to enroll approximately 379 patients that have been diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia and meet the entry criteria.

2) Age 18 years
3) Ability to comply with the study protocol
4) Hospitalized
5) COVID-19 pneumonia confirmed per a positive PCR of any specimen (e.g., respiratory, blood, urine, stool, other bodily fluid) and radiographic imaging (CT scan or chest X-ray)
6) Able to complete screening within 96 hours of hospital admission.
7) Blood oxygen saturation (SpO2) 94% while on ambient air
8) For women of childbearing potential: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use contraception
9) For men: agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use a condom, and agreement to refrain from donating sperm.
Exclusion Criteria

Primary Outcome
Name of the outcome
Metric or method of measurement
Time point for the outcome
Cumulative proportion of patients with death or requiring mechanical ventilation by Day 28
The primary efficacy objective for this study is to evaluate the efficacy of TCZ plus SOC compared with placebo plus SOC. Time to death or the first utilization of mechanical ventilation after randomization will be compared between the TCZ group and the placebo group using the stratified log-rank test with age group (age 60, age 60 years) as the stratification factor. The cumulative proportion of patients with death or requiring mechanical ventilation at Day 28 will be estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method.
Day 28
Secondary Outcome
Name of the outcome
Metric or method of measurement
Time point for the outcome
Time to improvement in ordinal clinical status
Defined as time from randomization to the time when at least a 2-category improvement in the 7-category ordinal scale is observed. Assessment of patient status using an ordinal scale will be recorded at baseline and once daily in the morning (between approximately 8 am and 12 pm) while hospitalized.
60 days
Time to clinical failure
Defined as the time to first occurrence on study of death, mechanical ventilation, ICU admission, or withdrawal, whichever occurs first
For up to 60 days.
Mortality rate at Day 28
Difference in mortality rate at Day 28 will be compared using the Cochran-Mantel-Haenszel test statistic stratified by age group (age 60, age 60 years). The difference in proportions and its 95% CI for the treatment group comparison will be presented.
Day 28
Time to hospital discharge or “ready for discharge”
“Ready for discharge” defined as normal body temperature and respiratory rate, and stable oxygen saturation on ambient air or 2L supplemental oxygen.
Up to 60 days.
