Trial Outcomes & Findings for A Phase 3 Study of Brincidofovir Versus Valganciclovir for the Prevention of Cytomegalovirus (NCT NCT02439957)

NCT ID: NCT02439957

Last Updated: 2021-07-16

Results Overview

The incidence of CMV disease, which included CMV tissue-invasive disease and CMV syndrome, occurring anytime between randomization and Week 24 posttransplant (±14 days). The proportion of subjects who met this failure endpoint were to be compared between brincidofovir (BCV) and valganciclovir (vGCV) using an unadjusted 95% confidence interval (CI) of the absolute difference between groups (BCV minus vGCV). Number of failures and failure rates were to be presented for each treatment. If the upper bound of the 95% CI fell below 10%, BCV would have demonstrated non-inferiority to vGCV. In the event that the upper bound of the 95% CI fell below 0%, BCV would have additionally demonstrated superiority over vGCV.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 24 weeks (±14 days)

Population: The study was terminated. Enrollment was suspended and all blinded study treatment was discontinued in early January 2016.

The incidence of CMV disease, which included CMV tissue-invasive disease and CMV syndrome, occurring anytime between randomization and Week 24 posttransplant (±14 days). The proportion of subjects who met this failure endpoint were to be compared between brincidofovir (BCV) and valganciclovir (vGCV) using an unadjusted 95% confidence interval (CI) of the absolute difference between groups (BCV minus vGCV). Number of failures and failure rates were to be presented for each treatment. If the upper bound of the 95% CI fell below 10%, BCV would have demonstrated non-inferiority to vGCV.
