The study compares between standard dose regimen of TD0069 combined with standard treatment in COVID-19 patients and only standard treatment in COVID-19 patients. A sample size of 570 patients, 380 in TD0069 arm and 190 in Placebo arm. All participants will be treated and followed up in 14-day period. In case the participant meets the discharge criteria before 14 days, discontinuing the study drug will be done at the discretion of the investigators. Firstly, screening procedures occur at Day 1.
