Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

A5418 is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study to establish the efficacy of tecovirimat for the treatment of people with laboratory-confirmed or presumptive HMPXV disease.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Drug: Tecovirimat Oral Capsule
  • Drug: Placebo
  • Drug: Tecovirimat Oral Capsule (Open Label)
Phase 3

Detailed Description

Eligible and consented participants for the randomized arms (N=530) will be randomized 2:1 to receive either tecovirimat or placebo; participants with severe disease, significant skin conditions, participants with severe immune suppression will receive open-label tecovirimat. Participants who are pregnant or breastfeeding will receive open-label tecovirimat after discussion of the potential risks and benefits. Participants less than 18 years of age will receive open-label tecovirimat. Participants receiving a potent inducing concomitant medication will receive open-label tecovirimat.

Once enrolled, study drug administration will be for 14 days. Participants who progress to severe HMPXV disease will be seen in person for a confirmation of progression. If severe disease is confirmed, participants will stop blinded study treatment and start a 14-day course of open-label tecovirimat. Participants reporting severe pain 5 days after randomization will stop blinded study treatment and start a 14-day course of open-label tecovirimat.

Participants will self-monitor skin and/or mucosal lesions daily through 29 days or resolution (whichever comes first), complete a daily diary of symptoms and complete a daily numerical rating scale for pain assessment.

Participants will be seen weekly through day 29 for assessment of HMPXV disease, safety assessments, HMPXV sampling similar to that described for entry, and swabbing of new HMPXV lesions.

Participants will be seen at day 57 to assess for possible recrudescence of infection (i.e., new lesions occurring after initial resolution of disease.
