Novartis AG said Monday that the phase 3 of its Ruxcovid study didn't meet its primary endpoint of reducing the number of hospitalized Covid-19 patients with complications.

Data show that ruxolitinib medicine, on top of standard of care therapy, didn't significantly reduce the number of Covid-19 patients in hospital who experienced severe complications including death, respiratory failure requiring mechanical ventilation or admission to the intensive care unit, the pharmaceutical giant said.

"The trial also did not show clinically relevant benefit among secondary and exploratory endpoints including mortality rate by day 29, and time to recovery," Novartis said.
