E.2 Objective of the trial |
E.2.1 | Main objective of the trial |
•To evaluate the anti-viral effect of inhaled PC786 compared with placebo when added to standard of care (SoC) RSV treatment in haematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) recipients with acute RSV infection •To assess the safety and tolerability of 3 days of inhaled PC786 in HSCT subjects with acute RSV infection
|
|
E.2.2 | Secondary objectives of the trial |
•To compare the anti-viral effect of PC786 with that of placebo on RSV load measured in nasal secretions •To obtain estimates of PC786 concentrations in nasal MLF and plasma •To evaluate the effect of PC786 on clinical features of RSV disease •To evaluate the effect of PC786 in preventing development of lower respiratory tract infection (LRTI) in subjects with infection confined to the upper respiratory tract (URT) at enrolment •To obtain estimates for important clinical endpoints |
