About this study

Official title: An Open-Label Study to Assess the Safety and Efficacy of Remdesivir for Treatment of Symptomatic Laboratory-Confirmed Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infection of the Upper Respiratory Tract in High-Risk Immunocompromised Patients

This phase II trial tests how well remdesivir works for treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection of the upper respiratory tract in patients receiving cellular or bispecific antibody therapy. Cellular or bispecific antibody therapies cause suppression of the immune system, making infections more frequent and reducing the body's ability to fight the infections. RSV infections are one of the most common respiratory infections in immunocompromised individuals and can cause significant pneumonia and even death. Remdesivir is in a class of medications called antivirals. It works by stopping viruses from spreading in the body.

Read the detailed description

OUTLINE:

Patients receive remdesivir intravenously (IV) over 30-120 minutes on days 1-5, with the option to extend to day 10 at the investigator's discretion, in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients also undergo nasal swabs and blood sample collection throughout the study.

After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up on day 14 and 29.

Remdesivir, Survey Administration, Biospecimen Collection, Nasal Swab

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of participants requiring ≥ 2 liters/minute of oxygen for ≥ 24 consecutive hours

    Will be estimated with 95% Wilson confidence intervals.

    Measured: Up to day 29

Secondary outcomes (10)
  1. Incidence of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs) and laboratory abnormalities

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  2. Incidence of serious adverse events and AEs leading to study drug discontinuation

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  3. Proportion of participants with RSV-related hospitalization (if not hospitalized at the time of first dose) or death

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  4. Supplemental oxygen free days

    Defined as days alive and not requiring ≥ 2 liters/minute of supplemental oxygen. Will be compared between cohorts using weighted least squares linear regression with propensity score weights.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  5. Proportion of participants who develop new or worsening pulmonary infiltrates

    Based on radiographic imaging of the lungs for standard of care.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  6. Proportion of participants requiring high-flow nasal cannula, non-invasive ventilation, or invasive mechanical ventilation for ≥ 24 consecutive hours

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  7. Proportion of participants admitted to intensive care unit

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  8. Proportion of participants who die

    Will consider using time-to-event methods such as cumulative incidence curves and Cox proportional hazards regression.

    Measured: Up to day 29

  9. Change from baseline in RSV nasal swab viral load

    Will be computed among participants with baseline nasal viral loads ≥ the lower limit of quantitation and compared between cohorts using linear regression with propensity score weights.

    Measured: From baseline through day 3 and 5

  10. Maximum daily Respiratory Infection Intensity and Impact Questionnaire (RiiQ) score

    The RiiQ is a 13-item questionnaire, with each item representing a different RSV-associated symptom and graded on a 4-point scale (0 = None, 1 = Mild, 2 = Moderate, and 3 = Severe). Greater scores indicate greater symptom severity. Recall period is the past 24 hours.

    Measured: From baseline to day 29

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Remdesivir, Survey Administration and Biospecimen Collection in people with Hematopoietic and Lymphatic System Neoplasm and Autoimmune Disease, run by Fred Hutchinson Cancer Center at 3 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 17 inclusion and 17 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 1 Oct 2026. 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 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. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Joshua Hill, MD (206-667-6504, Jahill3@fredhutch.org), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of participants requiring ≥ 2 liters/minute of oxygen for ≥ 24 consecutive hours (time frame: Up to day 29). 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 1 Oct 2026; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 8 Nov 2026.
