About the research

The purpose of this study is to characterize the effect on dengue viral load, fever clearance time as well as on clinical signs and symptoms with the treatment of EYU688 compared with placebo in patients with dengue fever.

Read the full description

This is a randomized, participant- and investigator- blinded, placebo-controlled study to investigate the efficacy and safety of EYU688 administered orally in patients with dengue fever.

Due to the different PK sampling schedules applied, the study consists of two cohorts run in parallel (intensive PK \[cohort 1\] and sparse PK sampling \[cohort 2\]).

Who may be able to participate?

The list below is the sponsor’s full registry wording. It can include conditions, prior treatment, test results and other requirements. A match in search does not mean you qualify.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Male or female, 18 - 60 years old (inclusive).
  • History or presence of fever (≥ 38°C). At least one of the following criteria indicating dengue infection:
  • Nausea or vomiting.
  • Presence of rash, aches or pains including headache, muscle or joint pain.
  • Onset of fever ≤ 48 hours prior to treatment start.
  • Positive test on dengue fever.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Participants with any of abnormalities of clinical laboratory parameters.
  • Usage of any anticoagulant drugs.
  • Current significant medical conditions or illness that the investigator considers should exclude the participants, especially those that require continuation of other medications likely to have an interaction with the study drug.
  • Pregnant or nursing (lactating) women.
  • Clinical signs and symptoms for severe dengue according to Dengue Guideline (WHO 2009) at screening.
  • Participants with any of the following abnormalities of clinical laboratory parameters at screening:
  • Hemoglobin \<12.0 g/dL in males; \<11.0 g/dL in females
  • Hematocrit \>52 % in males; \>46 % in females
  • Absolute neutrophil count \<1500/μL
  • Platelet count \<80,000/mm3
  • Creatinine \>165 μmol/L in males; \>130 μmol/L in females
  • Serum creatine kinase \> 600 U/L
  • ALT, AST levels more than 3 X upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Total bilirubin \>24 μmol/L
  • Usage of PPIs (proton pump inhibitor) which could affect absorption of EYU688 due to stomach pH value increase up to 48 hours prior to screening.
  • Women of child-bearing potential, defined as all women physiologically capable of becoming pregnant, unless they are using highly effective methods of contraception during dosing and for 4 days after stopping of investigational drug.
  • History or long-QT syndrome, or clinically significant ECG abnormalities, or any of the following ECG abnormalities at screening:
  • QTcF \> 450 msec (males)
  • QTcF \> 460 msec (females)

Other protocol-defined inclusion/exclusion criteria may apply.

Prepare your questions

What researchers are measuring

Outcome measures describe what is being studied. They are not proof that a treatment works.

Primary measures

Viremia reduction (viral load reduction (VLR) on log scale) at 48 hours post treatment start

Time frame: From predose to 48 hours post treatment start

Efficacy assessment of EYU688. It will allow to quantify the viremia reduction at 48 hours post treatment start from baseline.

Secondary measures

Time from fever onset to start of the first 48 hours period during which the oral temperature remained below 37.5℃

Time frame: From fever onset to Day 15

Efficacy assessment of EYU688. It will allow to assess the time needed between fever onset and defervescence.

Time from fever onset to the first of two consecutive negative viremia by PCR

Time frame: From fever onset to Day 15

Efficacy assessment will allow to assess the viremia kinetic from treatment start to Day15

Area under the log-transformed viremia curve (AUC) from the first dose to Day 15

Time frame: From fever onset to Day 15

Efficacy assessment will allow to assess the viremia kinetic from treatment start to Day 15

Changes of viral load over time

Time frame: From baseline to Day 15

Efficacy assessment will allow to assess the viremia kinetic from treatment start to Day15

Incidence and severity of Adverse Events (AEs)

Time frame: From inclusion to Day 15
