What is being measured

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

Percentage of Participants With Healing by Day 8
The percentage of participants achieving lesion healing by Day 8 of study treatment
Measured: 8 days

Secondary outcomes (3)

Time to Healing
The criteria for determining healing are as follows:
1. A condition where all erythematous and papular lesions, vesicular and pustular lesions, and erosive and ulcerative lesions have been resolved, and either the complete resolution of crusts or the complete epithelialization beneath any remaining crusts has been achieved.
2. In participants where no crust has formed, a condition characterized by the epithelialization of erosions/ulcers formation in mucosal lesions and potentially other affected areas.
3. In participants where no vesicles or pustules have formed, a condition characterized by the complete resolution of all erythematous and papular lesions.
Measured: 29 days
Time to Complete Crusting
The criteria for complete crust formation are outlined as follows:
1. A condition where all erythematous and papular lesions, vesicular and pustular lesions, and erosive and ulcerative lesions have been resolved, and all rashes are crusted (epithelialization beneath is not required).
2. In participants where no crust has formed, a condition characterized by the epithelialization of erosions/ulcers formation in mucosal lesions and potentially other affected areas.
3. In participants where no vesicles or pustules have formed, a condition characterized by the complete resolution of all erythematous and papular lesions.
Measured: 29 days
Time to Virus Disappearance
The day of viral disappearance is the first day on which the results of viral isolation continuously show 'HSV negative' until the final implementation day. The negative means that the results of the isolation and culture are negative, or the isolation and culture has not been performed due to complete crusting or healing of the lesion site.
Measured: 29 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ASP2151 in people with Herpes Simplex, run by Maruho Co., Ltd. at 3 sites in Japan.

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 6 inclusion and 11 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 27 Sep 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in Japan. 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. 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 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

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 27 Sep 2024). 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?

Percentage of Participants With Healing by Day 8 (time frame: 8 days). 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 NCT02209324.

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 27 Sep 2024.
