3. Subject with moderate to severe hepatic impairment or acute liver failure.

4. Known severe kidney disease.

5. Participated in other intervention studies within 6 months.

6. Has any condition for which, in the opinion of the Investigator, participation would not be in the best interest of the participant or that could prevent, limit, or confound the protocol-specified assessments including but not limited to participants who are not expected to survive longer than 48 hours after randomization, or participants who are expected to require mechanical ventilation within 48 hours after randomization, or participants with a recent history of mechanical ventilation.

7. Subjects receiving any medications or substances that are strong inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A within 14 days of randomization.

8. Received, ongoing or planed treatment with other anti-SARS CoV 2 therapeutics (including but not limited to known anti-SARS CoV 2 antibodies, small molecule antivirals, etc., other than remdesivir).
