Asthma | Drug: Vapendavir Drug: Placebo | Phase 2 |
This is a multicenter trial to be conducted at approximately 60 sites among 6-8 northern hemisphere countries in North America and Central Europe. Sufficient patients will be randomized in order to recruit 150 subjects who are laboratory confirmed for human rhinovirus (HRV) infection. Depending on HRV PCR positivity rates, it is expected that randomization of 250-480 subjects will be required to achieve this number of subjects with HRV infection.
Appropriate asthma subjects will be screened up to 180 days prior to presentation at the study site with symptoms of presumed HRV infection for potential study inclusion on Study Day 1. The study drug treatment period has a duration of 7 days, beginning on Study Day 1. Follow-up study visits to the clinic occur on Study Days 3, 5, 7, 14, 21, and 28 with a telephonic final safety follow-up visit conducted on Study Day 35. Thus, depending on the duration of the screening period, a subject's duration of participation can be estimated to last from approximately 37 days up to 215 days.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 75 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Moderate and severe male and female asthma subjects aged 18 to 75 years, (inclusive)
- Established clinical history of Asthma for at least 1 year, and a history within the last 14 months (prior to screening) of asthma exacerbation due to presumed viral respiratory infections, which required asthma rescue medication treatment.
- The asthma subjects will be currently taking at least medium-dose or high-dose ICS defined as fluticasone at a dosage of at least >264 µg daily and may be taking other asthma medication preparations. The asthma subjects' medication regimen must be stable for at least 4 weeks before screening.
- Subjects will have at screening or within the last year, documented variable airway obstruction as indicated by an increase in FEV1 (>12%) to short acting bronchodilator, or positive methacholine challenge, or positive histamine challenge (PC20 <8 mg/mL).
-
Upon presentation to the clinic with cold symptoms, subjects will be required to be randomized and treated within 48 hours of symptom onset and will be qualified for presumptive rhinovirus infection by:
- clinical exam and the presence of each of the following Day 1 WURSS-21 symptoms at a severity of 2 or greater: runny nose, sore throat, scratchy throat.
- subjects must also have a minimum total symptom score on the Day 1 WURSS-21 of 20 points.
- subjects will be further qualified as presumptively infected with HRV via exclusion of subjects having significant fever and exclusion of subjects testing positive for influenza via Rapid Antigen Test.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subjects presenting to the clinic with a current severe asthma exacerbation will be excluded from randomization, as well as any subject with an additional underlying respiratory medical condition other than asthma such as COPD, cystic fibrosis, or chronic sinusitis, or any other uncontrolled clinically significant disease which would interfere with the assessment outcomes or subject safety.
- Female subjects must not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Females of childbearing potential must be willing to utilize a double barrier method of contraception, as defined in this protocol, regardless of any hormonal contraception they may be concomitantly receiving.
- Male subjects must agree to use a method of birth control defined in this protocol.
- The use of medications known to moderately or severely inhibit or induce cytochrome (CYP) 3A4 and 2C19 enzymes, or those known to be sensitive substrates (with a narrow therapeutic range) of these CYPs are restricted.
