Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Percentage of Participants With All-cause Death or Invasive Mechanical Ventilation (IMV) Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    This is the combined outcome measure reporting the percentage of participants with all-cause death or IMV through Day 29. The reported percentage was from the Kaplan-Meier estimate.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. All-cause Mortality Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    The reported percentage was from the Kaplan-Meier estimate.

  2. Percentage of Participants With Initiation of IMV Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    The reported percentage was the cumulative-incidence estimate.

  3. Time to Recovery Without Subsequent Worsening (Defined as an Ordinal Scale Score of > 4) by Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    Time to recovery is the time from first dose to recovery. Recovery is defined as the first day on which the participant with a baseline score ≥ 4, satisfies categories 1, 2, or 3 from the 8-point ordinal scale: 1) Non-hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2) Non-hospitalized, limitations on activities/requiring home oxygen; 3) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19; 5) Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6) Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation; 7) Hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO); 8) Death. Cumulative incidence was reported.

  4. Time to Recovery Independent of Further Worsening by Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    Time to recovery is the time from first dose to recovery. Recovery is defined as the first day on which the participant with a baseline score ≥ 4, satisfies categories 1, 2, or 3 from the 8-point ordinal scale: 1) Non-hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2) Non-hospitalized, limitations on activities/requiring home oxygen; 3) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19; 5) Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6) Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation; 7) Hospitalized, on invasive mechanical ventilation or ECMO; 8) Death. Cumulative incidence was reported.

  5. Percentage of Participants Within Each Clinical Status Category as Assessed by an 8-Point Ordinal Scale on Day 15 [ Time Frame: Day 15 ]
    Clinical status is derived from death, hospital discharge, and the ordinal scale. Each day, the worst (highest) score from the previous day was recorded. The 8-point Ordinal scale is as follows: 1. Not hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2. Not hospitalized, limitation on activities and/or requiring home oxygen; 3. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - no longer requires ongoing medical care (other than per-protocol RDV/saline as placebo administration); 4. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19-specific medical care (other than per-protocol RDV administration); 5. Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen devices; 7. Hospitalized, on IMV or ECMO; and 8. Death. Higher scores indicate worse clinical status.

  6. Percentage of Participants Within Each Clinical Status Category as Assessed by an 8-Point Ordinal Scale on Day 29 [ Time Frame: Day 29 ]
    Clinical status is derived from death, hospital discharge, and the ordinal scale. Each day, the worst (highest) score from the previous day was recorded. The 8-point Ordinal scale is as follows: 1. Not hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2. Not hospitalized, limitation on activities and/or requiring home oxygen; 3. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - no longer requires ongoing medical care (other than per-protocol RDV/saline as placebo administration); 4. Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19-specific medical care (other than per-protocol RDV administration); 5. Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6. Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation or high-flow oxygen devices; 7. Hospitalized, on IMV or ECMO; and 8. Death. Higher scores indicate worse clinical status.

  7. Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT)-Free Days (Among Those Without End-Stage Kidney Disease [ESKD] at Baseline) Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    The number of RRT free days were calculated as the number of full days from Day 1 to Day 29 on which the participant was alive and did not receive RRT.

  8. Percentage of Participants With Recovery Without Subsequent Worsening (Defined as an Ordinal Scale Score of > 4) Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    Recovery is defined as the first day on which the participant with a baseline score >= 4, satisfies categories 1, 2, or 3 from the 8-point ordinal scale including: 1) Non-hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2) Non-hospitalized, limitations on activities/requiring home oxygen; 3) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19; 5) Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6) Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation; 7) Hospitalized, on IMV or ECMO; 8) Death.

  9. Percentage of Participants With Recovery Independent of Further Worsening Through Day 29 [ Time Frame: First dose date up to Day 29 ]
    Recovery is defined as the first day on which the participant with a baseline score >= 4, satisfies categories 1, 2, or 3 from the 8-point ordinal scale including: 1) Non-hospitalized, no limitations on activities; 2) Non-hospitalized, limitations on activities/requiring home oxygen; 3) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen; 4) Hospitalized, not requiring supplemental oxygen - requiring ongoing medical care for COVID-19; 5) Hospitalized, supplemental oxygen; 6) Hospitalized, on noninvasive ventilation; 7) Hospitalized, on IMV or ECMO; 8) Death.

  10. Percentage of Participants Experiencing Serious Adverse Events (SAEs) [ Time Frame: First dose date up to last dose date (Maximum: 5 days) plus 30 days ]
    An SAE was defined as an event that, at any dose, results in the following: Death, a life-threatening situation, inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization, persistent or significant disability/incapacity, a congenital anomaly/birth defect, a medically important event or reaction which may not be immediately life-threatening or result in death or hospitalization but may jeopardize the participant or may require intervention to prevent one of the other outcomes constituting SAEs.

  11. Percentage of Participants Who Permanently Discontinued Investigational Drug Due to Adverse Events (AEs) [ Time Frame: First dose date up to last dose date (Maximum: 5 days) ]
    An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant administered an investigational drug, which does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the treatment. An AE can therefore be any unfavorable and/or unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of an investigational drug, whether or not the AE is considered related to the investigational drug.
