Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the therapeutic value of an approved drug (Vericiguat) in patients with post-COVID-19 syndrome, who suffer from profound tiredness or fatigue, regardless of bed rest.The main questions it aims to answer are: • Does Vericiguat relieve fatigue and/or other symptoms associated with post-COVID-19 syndrome? • What are the side effects of Vericiguat in this patient population; and how common are they? Participants will be asked to participate for approx. 18 weeks. After screening, participants will receive assigned intervention of either 10 weeks of treatment with Vericiguat or matching placebo tablet, followed by 30 day follow-up period. Every participant will undergo trial, cardiovascular safety, and monitoring assessments. The results of this study will provide information on whether Vericiguat can alleviate PCS-related symptoms as well as insights into the pathophysiological processes of PCS, which in turn can help to develop therapies.
