RCT | Anti-C5a antibody (vilobelimab) therapy for critically ill, invasively mechanically ventilated patients with COVID-19.

Commentaries on Twitter
Interesting results in the #PANAMO trial of vilobelimab, an anti-C5a antibody, in critically ill ICU patients w/ COVID19.
People on MV (n=386) randomized to vilobelimab vs placebo. Mortality was (maybe) reduced in a subgroup w/ more severe illness…🤔https://t.co/bO5XiRptag
