Category 1: At home and off oxygen ≥ 77 days (best) Category 2: At home and off oxygen 49–76 days Category 3: At home and off oxygen 1–48 days Category 4: Discharged, but not at home, or at home requiring supplemental oxygen Category 5: Hospitalized or receiving hospice care Category 6: Died (worst)

b

Summary odds ratio for being in a better category, aviptadil vs. placebo. Proportional odds regression model with 1 indicator for treatment group stratified by disease severity. Computed for the 450 participants with known status at day 90; refer to the Supplementary Appendix (Figure S4) for the odds ratio after imputation for those with missing data.

c

Odds ratio for being in a better category compared to designated reference group, aviptadil vs. placebo. Logistic regression model with 1 indicator for treatment group stratified by disease severity.

d

Hazard ratio for time to first event, aviptadil vs. placebo. Cox proportional hazards regression model with 1 indicator for treatment group stratified by disease severity.

e

Sub-hazard ratio for time to first event, aviptadil vs. placebo. Fine-Gray model considering death a competing risk with 1 indicator for treatment group stratified by disease severity.

f

Among participants who were discharged from the index hospital. Time=0 set to the date of discharge.
