Detailed Description

This is a randomized, placebo-controlled clinical study to assess the safety and efficacy of EDP1815 in patients hospitalized with COVID-19 infection. The study is designed to evaluate the efficacy of EDP1815 at reducing time to resolution of symptoms, preventing progression of COVID-19 symptoms and preventing COVID-Related Complications (CRC)
