Clinical Trial Protocol Description:

A5418 is a phase 3, multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study measuring the clinical and antiviral effects of an oral medication in children and adults with severe monkeypox, or at a high risk of severe monkeypox. Study participants with symptomatic monkeypox virus infection who do not meet the criteria for the open-label cohort will be randomly assigned in a ratio of two to one to receive either treatment or placebo orally for 14 days. Participants who are randomized in the double-blinded cohort of the study who later progress to severe disease will be offered the option to switch to open-label treatment, as will participants who report persistent severe pain from monkeypox virus infection. Required activities from participants include completing self-skin checks with photographs and symptom diaries.
