A Double-blind, Randomized Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Bezisterim (NE3107) in Adults With Long COVID
Long COVID is a condition where debilitating symptoms can persist for months after a COVID-19 infection. This study aims to evaluate the effects of NE3107 on several neurological symptoms reported in people with Long COVID including difficulty concentrating or remembering things (brain fog) and fatigue. Researchers will compare NE3107 to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to see if NE3107 works to treat neurocognitive and fatigue symptoms of long COVID. Participants will: * Take NE3107 or a placebo twice daily for 84 days * Visit the clinic 5 times for checkups and tests and have a follow up phone call
• 18 years to 69 years of age
• Long COVID with neurological symptoms as defined below:
‣ Current symptoms of at least fatigue and neurocognitive impairment that began or worsened after an index SARS-CoV-2 infection that occurred at least 3 months prior to screening. Index SARS-CoV-2 infection is defined as either: 1) an episode of COVID-19 with a positive nucleic acid or antigen test during acute illness, as documented in the medical record, or 2) a documented clinical diagnosis of COVID-19, which can be based on a patient-reported positive test for COVID-19. Note that a documented diagnosis of Long COVID is not required for inclusion.

⁃ Symptom duration for at least 3 months. diagnosed with Long COVID with symptoms of fatigue and brain fog for at least 3 months
