Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Placebo Group
Group I: PF-06650833 + Standard of Care treatmentActive Control1 Intervention
Subjects randomized to the PF-06650833 arm of the study will receive 400 mg PF-06650833 (2 x 200 mg tablets) of the MR formulation orally QD under fasted conditions (preferably at least 4 hours after and 1.5 hours before a meal). Subjects who cannot take tablets PO will receive PF-06650833 200 mg IR suspension formulation every 6 hours (NG tube or OG tube, or equivalent). Subjects for whom concomitant administration of a strong inhibitor of CYP3A4 (eg, ritonavir) will have the dose reduced to either 200 mg MR or IR QD. All dosing of study drug will be in addition to current hospital SOC treatment that must include treatment targeting SARS-CoV-2.
Group II: Placebo + Standard of Care treatmentPlacebo Group1 Intervention
Placebo will match the Active comparator in dosage form, dosage, frequency and duration.
