A Study to Evaluate the Efficacy, Safety and Pharmacokinetics of CDI-988 in Healthy Adults After Challenge With Snow Mountain Virus

Not Applicable
Not yet recruiting
Conditions
Norovirus
Interventions
Other: Snow Mountain Virus
Drug: Placebo
Registration Number
NCT07198139
Lead Sponsor
Cocrystal Pharma, Inc.
Brief Summary

Participants in this study will be given either CDI-988 or placebo orally before receiving a norovirus challenge virus and continuing for 5 days. Participants will not know whether they are getting placebo or CDI-988. The study will evaluate how well CDI-988 compared to placebo can reduce the incidence of clinical symptoms after a challenge with norovirus. The amount of virus in stool samples will be measured over time. Side effects and pharmacokinetics (the amount of CDI-988 in blood) will also be measured.

Detailed Description

This is a single center Phase 1b randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study. The primary objective will be to evaluate the efficacy of CDI-988 in comparison to placebo in reducing the incidence of clinical symptoms after challenge with norovirus. Secondary objectives will be to evaluate the efficacy of CDI-988 in comparison to placebo in reducing viral shedding and disease severity and to evaluate the safety of CDI-988 in comparison to placebo.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Incidence of norovirus-confirmed diseaseDay 0 to Day 21

Disease is defined as diarrhea and/or vomiting (during the inpatient period), with laboratory-confirmed infection (with SMV specific primers on stool/emesis) or seroconversion

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Area Under the Curve of SMV loadDay 1 to Day 21

Determined by RT-qPCR

Modified Vesikari Score (MVS) symptom scores during the inpatient period in infected patientsDay 1 to Day 6

Score based on duration of diarrhea, maximum number of stools in a 24 hour period, duration of vomiting and maximum number of vomiting episodes in a 24 hour period

Time to symptom improvementDay 1 to Day 6

From peak Total Symptom Score to point where Total Symptom Score is within 3 points of baseline prior to challenge. The Modified Vesikari Score is a clinical tool used to assess the severity of acute gastroenteritis in children. The minimum and maximum values are 0 and 20, respectively. Higher scores mean a worse clinical severity. For example, a higher score reflects more severe symptoms such as longer duration or higher frequency of diarrhea or vomiting.
