A Phase III Study of Deuremidevir Hydrobromide for the Treatment of RSV Infection in Infants and Young Children

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group trial conducted in infants and young children aged 1 to 36 months with RSV infection.

A total of 498 subjects are expected to be enrolled and randomly assigned to the investigational product group or the placebo group in a 2:1 ratio; Administration will be based on the subject's weight, with a dose of 20 mg/kg three times daily for 5 consecutive days (15 doses).

Primary outcomes

  1. The earliest time from the first dose to the sustained resolution of 6 RSV infection-related clinical signs and symptoms

    Time frame: Day 26

    The earliest time from the first dose to the sustained resolution of 6 RSV infection-related clinical signs and symptoms. Resolution of 6 RSV infection-related clinical signs and symptoms is defined as a score of 0 for all of 6 RSV infection-related clinical signs.

Secondary outcomes

  1. The earliest time from the first dose to the sustained relief/resolution of wheezing.Relief/resolution of wheezing is defined as a wheezing score ≤ 1.

    Time frame: Day 26

  2. Change in Wang Bronchiolitis Score from baseline on Days 2-6 and Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26

  3. Time from the first dose to disease recovery: the earliest time when Wang Bronchiolitis Score ≤ 1

    Time frame: Day 26

  4. Proportion of subjects achieving RSV disease recovery (Wang Bronchiolitis Score ≤ 1 at daily assessment) on each day from Day 2 to Day 6 and on Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26

  5. Earliest time from the first dose to the sustained resolution of individual RSV infection-related clinical signs and symptoms

    Time frame: Day 26

  6. Proportion of subjects with resolution of individual RSV infection-related clinical signs and symptoms

    Time frame: Day 26

  7. Proportion of subjects with wheezing score ≤ 1 at daily assessment on each day from Day 2 to Day 6 and on Day 14 after the first dose;

    Time frame: Day 26

  8. Time from the first dose to the sustained relief/resolution of cough. Relief/resolution of cough is defined as a cough score ≤ 1

    Time frame: Day 26

  9. Proportion of subjects with cough score ≤ 1 at daily assessment on each day from Day 2 to Day 6 and on Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26

  10. Number and duration of admissions to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) due to RSV infection-related diseases;

    Time frame: Day 26

  11. Number of times of non-invasive positive pressure ventilation or mechanical ventilation received due to RSV infection-related diseases

    Time frame: Day 26

Other outcomes

  1. Change in viral load from baseline on Days 2-6 and Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26

  2. Proportion of subjects with viral load below the Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLOQ) on Days 2-6 and Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26

  3. Area under the viral load-time curve from baseline to Days 2-6 and Day 14 after the first dose

    Time frame: Day 26
