About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Placebo-controlled, Multi-site Phase 2 Study Evaluating the Safety and Efficacy of Preemptive Treatment With CMX001 for the Prevention of Adenovirus Disease Following Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of preemptive treatment with oral brincidofovir (BCV), as compared to placebo, for the prevention of adenovirus (AdV) disease in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) with asymptomatic AdV viremia.

Read the detailed description

This was a Phase 2, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study for pediatric and adult subjects who had undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) and who had been identified as having asymptomatic adenovirus (AdV) viremia [i.e., had detectable AdV DNA in plasma based on polymerase chain reaction testing performed at the local laboratory with no AdV disease symptoms]. The primary objectives of the study were to assess the safety and tolerability of oral brincidofovir (BCV), and to estimate the treatment failure rate based on an efficacy endpoint with 2 different dosing regimens of oral BCV versus placebo.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Clinically Significant AdV Infection

    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of preemptive treatment with brincidofovir (BCV) versus placebo for the prevention of adenovirus (AdV) disease in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) with asymptomatic AdV viremia.

    The outcome measure for the primary endpoint was treatment failure, a composite endpoint that consisted of the following:

    • Progression to probable AdV disease (other positive causes/agents have been ruled out and subject has disease-targeted organ-specific signs or symptoms) or definitive AdV disease (AdV detected in disease-targeted organ/system biopsy via antigen/immunohistochemistry, culture, and/or polymerase chain reaction and has at least 1 disease-targeted organ-specific sign or symptom); or
    • Increasing AdV viremia (defined as an increase from baseline in AdV viremia by ≥1 log10, confirmed on a second measurement, at least 1 week apart) and requiring discontinuation from blinded therapy.

    Measured: 12 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Brincidofovir in people with Adenovirus Disease, run by Jazz Pharmaceuticals at 30 sites in United States.

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 16 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 30 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 16 Jul 2021). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Clinically Significant AdV Infection (time frame: 12 weeks). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01241344, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 21 Jul 2021; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 1 Nov 2026.
