Remdesivir for the Treatment of Upper Respiratory Tract Infection Due to RSV in Immunocompromised Individuals
Trial Parameters
Brief Summary
This phase II trial tests how well remdesivir works for treatment of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection of the upper respiratory tract in patients receiving cellular or bispecific antibody therapy. Cellular or bispecific antibody therapies cause suppression of the immune system, making infections more frequent and reducing the body's ability to fight the infections. RSV infections are one of the most common respiratory infections in immunocompromised individuals and can cause significant pneumonia and even death. Remdesivir is in a class of medications called antivirals. It works by stopping viruses from spreading in the body.

Inclusion Criteria: * Aged ≥ 18 years * Willing and able to provide written informed consent, or with a legal representative who can provide informed consent (where locally approved) * RSV confirmed by local lab testing via nucleic acid amplification test (e.g. polymerase chain reaction \[PCR\] or respiratory viral panel \[RVP\]) using an upper respiratory tract sample collected within the 5 days prior to day 1 (RDV dosing) * Symptomatic RSV infection of the upper respiratory tract, with symptom onset and positive microbiologic testing within the 5 days prior to day 1 (RDV dosing). Symptomatic RSV infection is defined as having new upper respiratory symptom(s) or worsening of a pre-existing upper respiratory symptom (if chronic and associated with a previously existing diagnosis, such as chronic lung disease, chronic rhinorrhea, or seasonal allergies) * Have a hematologic malignancy and/or autoimmune disease and received one of the following treatments relative to RSV diagnosis date: *
