Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The time to clinical resolution defined as all skin lesions being scabbed, desquamated, or healed, and all visible mucosal lesions being healed.
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. To compare pain scores between randomized arms.<br>2. To compare rates of progression to severe HMPXV disease between randomized arms.<br>3. To compare clearance of HMPXV between randomized arms in various compartments including blood, skin lesions, oropharynx, rectum, and genital secretions.<br>4. To compare time to complete lesion healing between randomized arms.<br>5. To compare participant-reported outcomes including adherence and EQ-5D-5L between randomized arms.<br>6. To evaluate the safety of tecovirimat as compared to placebo.<br>7. To describe time to lesion resolution, pain, clearance of HMPXV, time to complete lesion healing, participant-reported outcomes, and safety of tecovirimat in participants who receive open-label tecovirimat.<br>8. To determine the steady-state tecovirimat AUCtau and Ctau in children less than 18 years of age.<br>9. To evaluate the safety profile of 14 days of tecovirimat in children less than 18 years of age.
