Trial Outcomes & Findings for Treatment of Adenoviral Conjunctivitis With SHP640 Compared to Placebo (NCT NCT02998554)

NCT ID: NCT02998554

Last Updated: 2021-06-09

Results Overview

Clinical resolution of adenoviral conjunctivitis was defined as the absence (score = 0) of bulbar conjunctival injection and watery conjunctival discharge in the study eye. Bulbar conjunctival injection was assessed based on a 0 (Normal conjunctival vascular pattern)-4 (Markedly prominent, intense diffuse hyperemia) scale which used pictures from the validated bulbar redness (VBR) scale. Watery conjunctival discharge was assessed based on a 0-3 scale (0 - None and 3 - Severe: Abundant quantity of watery discharge observed in the lower conjunctival fornix and in the lower lid margin). The study eye was defined based on participants bulbar conjunctival redness and watery conjunctival discharge scores, as well as his/her cell culture-immunofluorescence assay (CC-IFA) results at baseline. Higher scores represented worse symptoms for both scales. Percentage of participants with clinical resolution on Day 6 was reported.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 30 centers in the United States and Puerto Rico between 28 March 2017 (first participant first visit) and 16 May 2019 (last participant last visit).

A total of 156 participants were randomized and received the treatment. Out of them, 134 participants completed the study.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Day 6

Population: Modified Intent to Treat (mITT) population consisted of a subset of the ITT Population who received at least one dose of investigational product and has a positive CC-IFA adenovirus test at baseline in the study eye. Here, the number of participants analyzed refer to the participants evaluable for this outcome.

Clinical resolution of adenoviral conjunctivitis was defined as the absence (score = 0) of bulbar conjunctival injection and watery conjunctival discharge in the study eye. Bulbar conjunctival injection was assessed based on a 0 (Normal conjunctival vascular pattern)-4 (Markedly prominent, intense diffuse hyperemia) scale which used pictures from the validated bulbar redness (VBR) scale. Watery conjunctival discharge was assessed based on a 0-3 scale (0 - None and 3 - Severe: Abundant quantity of watery discharge observed in the lower conjunctival fornix and in the lower lid margin). The study eye was defined based on participants bulbar conjunctival redness and watery conjunctival discharge scores, as well as his/her cell culture-immunofluorescence assay (CC-IFA) results at baseline. Higher scores represented worse symptoms for both scales. Percentage of participants with clinical resolution on Day 6 was reported.

Adenoviral eradication for the study eye was defined as negative CC-IFA in that eye. The CC-IFA for each eye was conducted using conjunctival swab samples collected at each visit to determine the presence of adenovirus.

Population: The study was terminated as the sponsor discontinued the SHP640 clinical development with reason unrelated to safety. Hence, for this outcome measure, the planned data collection and analysis was not performed.

Individual clinical signs scores for bulbar conjunctival injection and watery conjunctival discharge in the study eye were reported. Bulbar conjunctival injection was assessed based on a 0 (Normal conjunctival vascular pattern)-4 (Markedly prominent, intense diffuse hyperemia) scale which used pictures from the validated bulbar redness (VBR) scale. Watery conjunctival discharge was assessed based on a 0-3 scale (0 - None and 3 - Severe: Abundant quantity of watery discharge observed in the lower conjunctival fornix and in the lower lid margin). Higher score represented worse symptoms for both scores. The study eye was defined based on participant's bulbar conjunctival redness and watery conjunctival discharge scores, as well as his/her CC-IFA results at baseline.

Population: Safety Population consisted of all screened participants who received at least one dose of investigational product.

An adverse event (AE) was any unfavorable and unintended sign, symptom, or disease temporally associated with the study or use of investigational drug product, whether or not the AE is considered related to the investigational drug product. Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) were defined as those adverse events that occurred after the first dose of investigational product.
