What is being measured

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

  1. RSV viral load

    AUC 0-t for RSV viral load measured in nasal washes by reverse transcription quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR)

    Measured: Baseline to Day 28

Secondary outcomes (17)
  1. Number of participants reporting one or more treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE)

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  2. Number of participants who discontinue due to an adverse event

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  3. Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for 12-lead ECG assessment at least once post dose

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  4. Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for vital signs assessments at least once post dose

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  5. Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for safety laboratory assessments at least once post dose

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  6. Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for spirometry (FEV1 & FVC measured together) assessments at least once post dose

    Measured: Screening to Day 28

  7. Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of PC786 measured in plasma

    Measured: Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12

  8. Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of PC786 measured in plasma

    Measured: Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12

  9. Time maximum concentration observed (Tmax) of PC786 measured in plasma

    Measured: Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12

  10. Apparent terminal half life (T1/2) of PC786 measured in plasma

    Measured: Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12

  11. Determination of nasal concentrations of PC786

    PC786 concentrations in mucosal lining fluid collected using synthetic absorptive matrix

    Measured: Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 28

  12. Comparison of mucus production following treatment with PC786 or placebo post viral inoculation

    Reduction in weight of mucus produced post viral infection

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

  13. Comparison of the effect of treatment with PC786 or placebo on RSV symptoms

    Composite score of self-reported symptoms on a symptom diary card. Nasal symptoms, sneezing, sore throat, cough, headache, wheezing, chest tightness, shortness of breath, joint aches, feverishness, malaise, earache are assessed using a score of 0 (no symptoms), 1 (just noticeable), 2 (bothersome but able to participate in activities), 3 (bothersome and not able to participate in activities)

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

  14. Change in viral load measured in nasal wash

    Change in viral load before first dose of PC786 to Day 12

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

  15. Time to non-detectability of virus measured in nasal wash

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

  16. Peak viral load measured in nasal wash

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

  17. Time peak viral load observed measured in nasal wash

    Measured: Baseline to Day 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing PC786 in people with Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections, run by Pulmocide Ltd at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 8 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 16 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United Kingdom. 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 combined phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

RSV viral load (time frame: Baseline to Day 28). 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 NCT03382431, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 16 May 2018.
