A Study of PC786 to Evaluate the Antiviral Activity, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of Multiple Doses in an RSV Challenge Study

Phase 1
Completed
Conditions
Respiratory Syncytial Virus Infections
Interventions
Drug: Placebo/vehicle
Registration Number
NCT03382431
Lead Sponsor
Pulmocide Ltd
Brief Summary

PC786 is a new medicine being developed for treatment of respiratory syncytial virus. The main purpose of this study is to evaluate the antiviral activity of PC786 in healthy adults infected with RSV virus in a viral challenge study.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
RSV viral loadBaseline to Day 28

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

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of participants reporting one or more treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE)Screening to Day 28
Number of participants who discontinue due to an adverse eventScreening to Day 28
Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for 12-lead ECG assessment at least once post doseScreening to Day 28
Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for vital signs assessments at least once post doseScreening to Day 28
Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for safety laboratory assessments at least once post doseScreening to Day 28
Number of participants who meet the markedly abnormal criteria for spirometry (FEV1 & FVC measured together) assessments at least once post doseScreening to Day 28
Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of PC786 measured in plasmaPre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12
Maximum observed concentration (Cmax) of PC786 measured in plasmaPre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12
Apparent terminal half life (T1/2) of PC786 measured in plasmaPre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12
Determination of nasal concentrations of PC786Pre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 28

PC786 concentrations in mucosal lining fluid collected using synthetic absorptive matrix

Comparison of mucus production following treatment with PC786 or placebo post viral inoculationBaseline to Day 12

Reduction in weight of mucus produced post viral infection

Comparison of the effect of treatment with PC786 or placebo on RSV symptomsBaseline to Day 12

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)

Time maximum concentration observed (Tmax) of PC786 measured in plasmaPre-dose and at multiple time points to Day 12
Change in viral load measured in nasal washBaseline to Day 12

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

Time to non-detectability of virus measured in nasal washBaseline to Day 12
Peak viral load measured in nasal washBaseline to Day 12
Time peak viral load observed measured in nasal washBaseline to Day 12
