Thanks for the update. Amazing that this trial is not scheduled for completion until Dec 2023. Which means we won't hear the formal results until we are deep into 2024....long after RAM pulls his R/S stunt.

Detail description.
Aviptadil was shown to restore barrier function at the endothelial/alveolar interface and to protect the lung and other organs from failure. In Europe, Aviptadil is approved for human use and has been shown to be safe in phase II trials for sarcoidosis, pulmonary fibrosis, bronchospasm, erectile dysfunction as well as in a phase I trial in ARDS in the past two decades. In the US, VIP has been given FDA Orphan Drug Designation for the treatment of ARDS and was admitted to the FDA Corona Virus Technology Accelerator Program.
In a phase I trial of Aviptadil performed by Sami Said in the early 2000s, eight patients with severe ARDS on mechanical ventilation were treated with ascending doses of intravenous VIP. Seven patients (88%) were successfully extubated and were alive at the five day time point. Six (75%) left the hospital and one (13%) died of an unrelated cardiac event. A phase II clinical trial using intravenous Aviptadil in patients with COVID-19 infection and ARDS has begun. Further, a phase II/III clinical trial will study the effect of inhaled Aviptadil for the treatment of non-acute lung injury in COVID- 19 and begins in June 2020. In Europe, two phase II trials of Aviptadil have been conducted. Further, studies with healthy volunteers have shown that inhaled Aviptadil is well tolerated with few adverse effects.
