Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Participant must be aged ≥ 29 weeks gestational age (GA) to < 18 years of age.
  • Participant must weigh a minimum of 1.5 kg.

COHORT 1

  • Increased risk of severe COVID-19 because of immunocompromised state or one or more comorbid conditions that increase the risk of severe COVID-19.
  • Increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
  • Medically stable (disease not requiring significant change in therapy or hospitalization for worsening disease during the one month prior to enrollment).
  • A negative RT-PCR test collected ≤ 3 days prior to Day 1 or a negative rapid SARS-CoV-2 antigen test at screening.
  • No COVID-19 symptoms prior to enrollment within 10 days of dosing.
  • Increased risk for SARS-CoV-2 infection.

COHORT 2

  • Increased risk of severe COVID-19 because of immunocompromised state or one or more comorbid conditions that increase the risk of severe COVID-19.
  • Medically stable (disease not requiring significant change in therapy or hospitalization for worsening disease during the one month prior to enrollment).
  • A positive RT-PCR test collected ≤ 3 days prior to Day 1 or a positive rapid SARS-CoV-2 antigen test at screening.
  • Symptomatic participants must be dosed with IMP no more than 7 days from the self-reported date of first reported sign/symptom.
  • Oxygenation saturation of ≥ 92% obtained at rest within 24 hours prior to Day 1 unless the potential participant regularly receives chronic supplementary oxygen for an underlying lung condition.

Note that Cohort 2 will only be included if the indication is progressed in adults.

COHORT 3

  • Participants hospitalized with COVID-19 with a time between onset of symptoms and dosing AZD7442 of ≤ 7 days.
  • A positive RT-PCR test collected ≤ 3 days before Day 1 or a positive rapid SARS-CoV-2 antigen test at screening.
  • Spontaneous blood Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT)/Aspartate Transaminase (AST) levels ≤ 5 times the ULN.
  • Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) ≥ 30 mL/min/1.73 m2.

Participants will receive IM AZD7442 unless they meet any of the following criteria for IV administration:

  • The participant has severe COVID-19.
  • Contraindication of intramuscular (IM) dose due to thrombocytopenia, coagulation defects or any other condition that would compromise the absorption of AZD7442 or safety of the participant.
  • Physician considers IV the appropriate route.

Exclusion Criteria

All Cohorts

  • Cohort 1: Significant infection or other acute illnesses including fever on or the day prior to receiving AZD7442.
  • History of SARS-CoV-1 or Middle East Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus (MERS-CoV).
  • Cohorts 1 and 2: Current need for immediate medical attention or current need for hospitalization.
  • Mechanical ventilation or extracorporeal membrane oxygenation requirement for COVID-19.
  • History of allergic or reaction to any component of the study drug formulation.
  • History of hypersensitivity, injection/infusion-relation reactions or severe adverse reactions following administration of a monoclonal antibody (mAb).
  • Co-morbidity requiring surgery within 7 days prior to study entry or is deemed life-threatening within 30 days prior to study entry.
  • Prior receipt of convalescent COVID-19 plasma/sera or hyperimmune globulin therapy.
  • Prior receipt of mAb/biologic indicated for the prevention of SARS-CoV-2, treatment of COVID-19, or expected receipt during the period of study follow-up.
  • Prior receipt of a COVID-19 vaccine ≤ 14 days before screening or plan to receive a COVID-19 vaccination ≤ 14 days after IMP administration at study Visit 1.
  • History of alcohol or drug abuse within the past 2 years.
  • Investigational Drugs or Devices: Treatment with investigational drug or device in another clinical trial within the last 30 days or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is longer) prior to screening. Note: Participation in observational studies (ie, studies that do not require medication, blood draws, or an additional intervention) is not exclusionary. Interventiona
