Study Description

Brief Summary

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, safety, PK/PD and preliminary efficacy study of intravenous IC14 in adult patients in a dengue-endemic region presenting with fever > 38°C for < 48 hours with a positive NS1 strip assay or reverse-transcriptase polymerase chain reaction assay for dengue virus.

Condition or Disease	Intervention/Treatment	Phase
Dengue Fever	Biological: IC14 Drug: Placebo	Phase 2

Detailed Description

The study will be conducted in two parts and will include an open label phase of a single dose of IC14 (Part A) and a randomized phase of multiple doses of IC14 and placebo (Part B). Up to 52 patients will be enrolled in both parts of the study.

Part A will consist of 12 patients given one of three doses of IC14 as a single dose open-label . Each patient must complete 14 days before the enrollment of subsequent patients. Part A subjects will be hospitalized for 4 days. During and at the end of 4-day admission to the clinical research unit, and on Study Days 5, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 32, Part A patients will have their health status assessed. The last subject in Part A must complete 32 days of participation before Part B of the trial is opened.

Part B consists of 40 patients randomized equally to one of 4 dosing regimens which will include a single dose or multiple doses of IC14 or placebo given at different dosing frequencies. In Part B, Cohort 1 and 2 subjects (single dose) will be inpatient for 4 days and Cohort 3 and 4 subjects (four daily doses) will be inpatient for 5 days. During and at the end of the admission to the clinical research unit, and on Study Days 5, 6, 7, 14, 21 and 32, Part B patients will have their health status assessed.

Dengue symptom score [32 days]
Impact of treatment on dengue symptom severity (0 normal] to 24 [worst])
Disease severity [32 days]
Impact of treatment on duration of hospitalization; incidence and duration of intensive care unit admission; and incidence of progression to dengue with warning signs or severe dengue
Mortality [32 days]
Impact of treatment on survival
