This study was designed to assess the safety and efficacy of preemptive treatment with oral brincidofovir (BCV), as compared to placebo, for the prevention of adenovirus (AdV) disease in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) with asymptomatic AdV viremia.
This was a Phase 2, randomized, multicenter, placebo-controlled study for pediatric and adult subjects who had undergone hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) and who had been identified as having asymptomatic adenovirus (AdV) viremia \[i.e., had detectable AdV DNA in plasma based on polymerase chain reaction testing performed at the local laboratory with no AdV disease symptoms\]. The primary objectives of the study were to assess the safety and tolerability of oral brincidofovir (BCV), and to estimate the treatment failure rate based on an efficacy endpoint with 2 different dosing regimens of oral BCV versus placebo.

* Adult subjects: 200mg BCV administered as 50mg tablets taken orally either once weekly (QW; 4 tablets) or twice weekly (BIW; 2 tablets). * Pediatric subjects: 4mg/kg BCV (not to exceed a total single dose of 200mg) administered using a 10 mg/mL liquid formulation taken orally either QW (as 4 mg/kg) or BIW (as 2 mg/kg).
Adult subjects: Matching placebo tablets taken orally either once weekly (QW; 4 tablets) or twice weekly (BIW; 2 tablets). • Pediatric subjects: Matching liquid placebo taken orally either QW (as 4 mg/kg) or BIW (as 2 mg/kg).
Number of Participants With Clinically Significant AdV Infection
The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the safety and efficacy of preemptive treatment with brincidofovir (BCV) versus placebo for the prevention of adenovirus (AdV) disease in recipients of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HCT) with asymptomatic AdV viremia. The outcome measure for the primary endpoint was treatment failure, a composite endpoint that consisted of the following: * Progression to probable AdV disease (other positive causes/agents have been ruled out and subject has disease-targeted organ-specific signs or symptoms) or definitive AdV disease (AdV detected in disease-targeted organ/system biopsy via antigen/immunohistochemistry, culture, and/or polymerase chain reaction and has at least 1 disease-targeted organ-specific sign or symptom); or * Increasing AdV viremia (defined as an increase from baseline in AdV viremia by ≥1 log10, confirmed on a second measurement, at least 1 week apart) and requiring discontinuation from blinded therapy.
