  • Capable of giving written informed consent that includes compliance with the requirements and restrictions listed in the consent form. Informed consent and subject assent for subjects below the legal age of consent will be documented by means of a written, signed, and dated ICF and assent document. For subjects below the legal age of consent, the parent/legal guardian will provide informed consent and subjects below the legal age of consent will provide assent to participate in the study, in compliance with local regulations;
  • Subject is able to understand and comply with the protocol requirements;
  • Ability to maintain adequate oral intake of medication;
  • Female subjects who are not postmenopausal for at least 2 years or surgically sterile with complete hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy and male subjects, who are not surgically sterile via vasectomy, must agree to use a double barrier method of birth control, such as, a condom plus spermicidal agent (foam/gel/film/cream/suppository) from the time of randomization until 30 days after completion of study drug dosing. Male subjects cannot donate sperm during the study starting at day 1 and for 90 days after completion of study drug dosing;

Show all 14Show fewer

  • Subjects with other known clinical significant laboratory abnormalities from local lab testing performed within 30 days prior to Study Day 1 will be considered for inclusion, if in the opinion of the investigator or Medical Monitor the abnormalities will not significantly jeopardize the safety of the subject or are related to the underlying study disease and/or transplant and the abnormalities will not impair the validity of the study;
  • Known history of estimated creatinine clearance < 50 mL/min (as calculated via the Cockcroft-Gault method);
  • Known history of HIV/AIDS. Known history of active HBV or HCV infection that has not resolved with treatment;
  • Current abuse of alcohol or any use of illicit drugs;
  • Received an investigational drug or investigational vaccine within 14 calendar days or 5 half-lives (whichever is longer) which does have US market approval for a related indication or different dosing regimen, or use of an investigational medical device within 14 calendar days prior to Study Day 1, or has received vapendavir at any previous time;
  • Subjects unable to tolerate bilateral nasopharyngeal sampling required for this study, as determined by the investigator.

About this study

Official title: A Phase 2, Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled Study of Vapendavir Treatment of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Subjects With Symptomatic Rhinovirus Infection

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of vapendavir treatment of laboratory-confirmed and symptomatic HRV infection of the upper respiratory tract in allogeneic and autologous stem cell transplant subjects. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of vapendavir on laboratory-confirmed HRV upper-respiratory tract infection in HSCT patients, as measured by viral load changes, worsening of upper respiratory tract infection (URTI) to lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI), duration of clinical symptoms, the occurrence of supplemental oxygen use, duration of viral shedding, hospital admission and duration of hospitalization, incidence of secondary bacterial infection, and mortality rates. Additionally, the safety and tolerability of vapendavir, and the vapendavir plasma levels achieved in the HSCT population, and the profile of viral resistance development will also be assessed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Efficacy: Time-weighted average change from baseline to end of treatment visit in HRV viral load (HRV-RNA log10 copies/mL)

    Measured: Study Day 1 to end of treatment (Study Day 14)

  2. Safety: Proportion of treatment-emergent adverse events

    Measured: Study Day 1 - 90

  3. Safety: Proportion of treatment-related serious adverse events

    Measured: Study Day 1 - 90

  4. Safety: Incidence of treatment-emergent Grade 3 or greater clinical laboratory abnormalities

    Measured: Study Day 1 - 90

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Vapendavir in people with Rhinovirus and Upper Respiratory Tract Infection, run by Vaxart.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 8 inclusion and 14 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 7 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Efficacy: Time-weighted average change from baseline to end of treatment visit in HRV viral load (HRV-RNA log10 copies/mL) (time frame: Study Day 1 to end of treatment (Study Day 14)). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 7 May 2018.
