RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Glenzocimab is a novel antithrombotic agent which targets platelet glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and does not induce haemorrhage. SARS-CoV-2 triggers a prothrombotic state and lung injury whose mechanisms include coagulopathy, endothelial dysfunction, and inflammation with dysregulated platelets. METHODS AND PATIENTS: GARDEN was a randomised double-blind, exploratory phase II study of glenzocimab in SARS-CoV-2 respiratory failure (NCT04659109). PCR+ adults in Brazil and France (7 centres) were randomized to standard-of-care (SOC) plus glenzocimab (1000 mg/dayx3 days) or placebo, followed for 40 days. Primary efficacy endpoint was clinical progression at Day 4. All analyses concerned the intention-to-treat population. RESULTS: Between December 2020 and August 2021, 61 patients received at least one dose (30 glenzocimab vs 32 placebo) and 58 completed the study (29 vs 29). Clinical progression of COVID-19 ARDS was not statistically different between glenzocimab and placebo arms (43.3% and 29.0%, respectively; p = 0.245). Decrease in the NEWS-2 category at D4 was statistically significant (p = 0.0290) in the glenzocimab arm vs placebo. No Serious Adverse Event (SAE) was deemed related to study drug; bleeding related events were reported in 6 patients (7 events) and 4 patients (4 events) in glenzocimab and placebo arms, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Therapeutic GPVI inhibition assessment during COVID-19 was conducted in response to a Public Health emergency. Glenzocimab in coagulopathic patients under therapeutic heparin was neither associated with increased bleeding, nor SAE. Clinical impact of glenzocimab on COVID-19 ARDS was not demonstrated. A potential role for GPVI inhibition in other types of ARDS deserves further experimentation. Glenzocimab is currently studied in stroke (ACTISAVE: NCT05070260) and cardiovascular indications.

Dolutegravir (DTG) es un inhibidor de la integrasa del VIH aprobado recientemente como tratamiento por la FDA (Food and Drug Administration) en los Estados Unidos. Utilizado como parte de un tratamiento de primera línea, DTG es el único tratamiento antirretroviral frente al cual no se ha seleccionado resistencia en la clínica. Nuestra teoría es que esto se debe al prolongado tiempo de unión del DTG a la enzima integrasa así como a una capacidad de replicación muy disminuida por parte de los virus que podrían volverse resistentes al DTG. Además, conjeturamos que DTG podría ser utilizado en estrategias que apunten a la erradicación del VIH...
Dolutegravir (DTG) is an HIV integrase inhibitor that was recently approved for therapy by the Food and Drug Administration in the United States. When used as part of First-line therapy, DTG is the only HIV drug that has not selected for resistance mutations in the clinic. We believe that this is due to the long binding time of DTG to the integrase enzyme as well as greatly diminished replication capacity on the parte of viruses that might become resistant to DTG. We further speculatethat DTG might be able to be used in strategies aimed at HIV eradication...
