ADENOCLEAR: Treatment of Adenovirus Disseminated Infections in Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant Patients With Adenovirus Digestive Replication
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
Disseminated Adv infections are associated with high morbidity and mortality in HSCT pediatric patients. The most common source of Adv infection after pediatric HSCT is the host digestive tract where latent Adv are reactivated after engraftment. We have shown in a monocentric study that Adv viral load in stools is a predictive factor of blood infection in children with digestive Adv infections. We assume that an early treatment, with antiviral drugs, such as cidofovir and brincidofovir, may avoid severe Adv infections and diseases and thus that molecular surveillance in stool is a critical factor for the control of Adv reactivations.
The study has two main objectives: (i) confirming the impact of Adv viral load in stools on the occurrence of blood infection based on a multicentric prospective cohort study design; and (ii) determining the prognostic and predictive factors for efficacy and toxicity of antiviral drugs, such as brincidofovir and cidofovir.

Study Design
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- rate of Adv blood infection according to levels of Adv DNA in stool samples. [100 days]
Adv blood infection is defined as plasma Adv DNA level greater than 200 copies per milliliter
- rate of response to antiviral drugs [100 days]
Success will be defined as undetectable level of DNA of Adv in blood after a maximum of 4 weeks of treatment. After 4 weeks of treatment any detectable level of Adv DNA will be considered as a failure.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Adv DNA levels > 5 log10 copies/ml in stool [100 days]
measured at the end of treatment
- Time required achieving 50% decrease of Adv load and undetectable Adv DNA. [100 days]
- Time required achieving 90% decrease of Adv load and undetectable Adv DNA. [100 days]
- Incidence of Adv probable or proven disease [100 days]
We will use the definitions recommended by ECIL (detailed in Appendix 1). Digestive infection: positive Adv PCR in stool Local infection: positive Adv PCR in biopsy material or body fluids other than peripheral blood. Systemic infection/viremia: positive Adv PCR in peripheral blood. Probable disease: Adv infection plus corresponding symptoms and signs without histological confirmation. Proven disease: Adv infection plus corresponding symptoms related to the infection and histological confirmation of Adv in the appropriate location.
- Incidence of diarrhea [100 days]
- Incidence of acute digestive graft versus host disease (aGvHD) [100 days]
- Overall survival. [100 days]
- Incidence of Adv probable or proven disease [100 days]
- Genotypic analysis of the Adv DNA polymerase [100 days]
- Detection and quantification of herpesviruses in blood [100 days]
