Trial Outcomes & Findings for VALTREX Once Daily For Viral Shedding In Herpes Simplex Virus 2 (HSV-2) Seropositive Subjects. VALTREX® Tablet is a Trademark of GlaxoSmithKline Group of Companies. (NCT NCT00116844)

NCT ID: NCT00116844

Last Updated: 2018-02-12

Results Overview

Percent of subclinical days with HSV-2 shedding was defined for each participant as the percent of subclinical days with PCR data for which HSV-2 shedding was detected by a positive PCR result, that is, the number of subclinical days with HSV-2 PCR shedding divided by total number of subclinical days with PCR data, multiplied by 100. For each participant, each study day was classified by PCR as 'shedding' or 'no shedding'; additionally each day was classified as 'clinical' (presence of genital lesions) or subclinical (no genital lesions). Genital/anal-rectal swabs was collected daily during each entire 60-day treatment period of each period and the washout period.

Participant Flow

From March-2005 to January-2006, 73 participants from 13 centers in the United States were randomized into the study (36 in VALTREX™-Placebo, and 37 in Placebo-VALTEX treatment sequence). One participant in each treatment sequence did not receive study medication and intent-to-treat exposed (ITTE) population was comprised of 71 participants.

Eligible male or female immunocompetent participants in general good health were enrolled. Additionally, participants must be Herpes Simplex Virus Type 2 (HSV-2) seropositive at screening. VALTREX (valacyclovir hydrochloride) is registered trademark of GlaxoSmithKline.

Sequence 1: VALTREX 1 g Once Daily, Placebo
Participants randomized to this sequence received VALTREX 1 gram (g) once daily for 60 days, to be taken as two 500 milligram (mg) caplets in Period 1 followed by matching placebo for 60 days in Period 2 with 7 days of washout period between 2 periods. Participants were instructed to take caplets at approximately the same time of day each day, without regard to meals. If a dose was missed, the participants take the dose later that day provided they take it at least 2 hours before their next scheduled dose; otherwise the dose was omitted.
Sequence 2: Placebo, VALTREX 1 g Once Daily
Participants randomized to this sequence received matching placebo for 60 days, to be taken as two 500 mg caplets in Period 1 followed by VALTREX 1 g once daily for 60 days in Period 2 with 7 days of washout period between 2 periods. Participants were instructed to take caplets at approximately the same time of day each day, without regard to meals. If a dose was missed, the participants take the dose later that day provided they take it at least 2 hours before their next scheduled dose; otherwise the dose was omitted.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to Day 60 of each treatment period (up to 160 days)

Population: The intent-to-treat crossover (ITTC) population was defined as consisting of all participants who received at least one dose of investigational product and had at least one PCR swabbing result in each treatment period. Only those participants with data available at the indicated time points were analyzed.

Percent of subclinical days with HSV-2 shedding was defined for each participant as the percent of subclinical days with PCR data for which HSV-2 shedding was detected by a positive PCR result, that is, the number of subclinical days with HSV-2 PCR shedding divided by total number of subclinical days with PCR data, multiplied by 100. For each participant, each study day was classified by PCR as 'shedding' or 'no shedding'; additionally each day was classified as 'clinical' (presence of genital lesions) or subclinical (no genital lesions). Genital/anal-rectal swabs was collected daily during each entire 60-day treatment period of each period and the washout period.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to Day 60 of each treatment period (up to 160 days)

Population: ITTC population. Only those participants with data available at the indicated time points were analyzed.

The percent of days with total (clinical and subclinical) HSV-2 shedding was defined as the percent of all days with PCR data for which HSV-2 shedding was detected. Mean percent of days with total HSV-2 shedding was the statistic used to summarize this endpoint for each treatment group. For each participant, each study day was classified by PCR as 'shedding' or 'no shedding'; additionally each day was classified as 'clinical' (presence of genital lesions) or 'subclinical" (no genital lesions). The total shedding rate was defined for each participant as the percentage of all days (clinical and subclinical) on treatment during which shedding was detected by PCR. Genital/anal-rectal swabs was collected daily during each entire 60-day treatment period of each period and the washout period.

Timeframe: Up to Day 60 of each treatment period (up to 160 days)

Population: ITTC population. Only those participants with data available at the indicated time points were analyzed.

The number of participants with no shedding was defined as the number of participants with no HSV-2 shedding detected by PCR divided by the total number of participants with PCR data. During each 60-day treatment period and during washout, swabs were collected daily from the genital/anal-rectal area for HSV-2 detection by PCR. During an outbreak, lesion swabs were also collected for HSV-2 detection by PCR. For each participant, each study day was classified by PCR as 'shedding' or 'no shedding'; additionally each day was classified as 'clinical' (presence of genital lesions) or 'subclinical" (no genital lesions).

The subclinical shedding rate was defined for each participant as the total number of subclinical days on treatment during which shedding was detected by PCR. Average log HSV-2 DNA copy number per day on days with subclinical shedding was defined as the daily maximum HSV-2 DNA copy number was log transformed and averaged over all subclinical shedding days. During each 60-day treatment period and during washout, swabs were collected daily from the genital/anal-rectal area for HSV-2 detection by PCR. During an outbreak, lesion swabs were also collected for HSV-2 detection by PCR. For each participant, each study day was classified by PCR as 'shedding' or 'no shedding'; additionally each day was classified as 'clinical' (presence of genital lesions) or 'subclinical" (no genital lesions).
