Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to Complete Resolution of LRTD Symptoms for the HR3 PopulationDay 1 through Day 33Complete resolution of LRTD Symptoms is defined as the first of two consecutive timepoints where each of the four LRTD symptoms (cough, short of breath, wheezing and coughing up phlegm\[sputum\]) as assessed by RiiQTM Scale Score is zero. Time to complete resolution of LRTD symptoms is calculated as: date/time of complete resolution - date/time of first dose with conversion to days.
Time to Resolution of RSV Lower Respiratory Tract Disease (LRTD) SymptomsDay 1 through Day 33Resolution of LRTD Symptoms is defined as the first of two consecutive timepoints where each of the four LRTD symptoms (cough, short of breath, wheezing and coughing up phlegm\[sputum\]) as assessed by RiiQTM Scale Score is zero or 1. Time to resolution of LRTD symptoms is calculated as: date/time of resolution - date/time of first dose with conversion to days.
Time to Complete Resolution of LRTD Symptoms for the mITT PopulationDay 1 through Day 33Complete resolution of LRTD Symptoms is defined as the first of two consecutive timepoints where each of the four LRTD symptoms (cough, short of breath, wheezing and coughing up phlegm\[sputum\]) as assessed by Respiratory Infection Intensity and Impact Questionnaire (RiiQ) Scale Score is zero. Time to complete resolution of LRTD symptoms is calculated as: date/time of complete resolution - date/time of first dose with conversion to days.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Post-baseline RSV-related ComplicationsDay 1 through Day 33
Time to Improvement in RSV DiseaseDay 1 through Day 33Time to Improvement is defined as the time from first dose to first timepoint where the response assessed by PGI-C is 'Much better'. Time to Improvement is calculated as: date/time of Improvement - date/time of first timepoint.
Change From Baseline for Health-Related Quality of LifeDay 1 through Day 33Assessed by EuroQol 5 Dimensions 5 Levels (EQ-5D-5L) questionnaire; 5 dimensions (mobility, taking care of yourself, usual activities, pain/discomfort, and anxiety/depression) are scored on 5 levels from 1 (full health) to 5 (extreme disability). An index score is derived based on the 5 reported levels where 1.0 represents full health and 0.0 the worst possible health.
Time to Return to Usual HealthDay 1 through Day 33Time to return to usual health is defined as the time from first dose to first timepoint where the response as assessed by Adult Return to Usual Health is 'Yes'. Time to return to usual health is calculated as: date/time of return to usual health - date/time of response to 'Yes'.
Time to Return to Usual ActivitiesDay 1 through Day 33Time to return to usual activities is defined as the time from first dose to first timepoint where the response as assessed by Adult Return to Usual Activities is 'Yes'. Time to return to usual activities is calculated as: date/time of return to usual activities - date/time of first response to 'Yes'.
Percentage of Subjects Requiring Hospitalization for RSV or Other CausesDay 1 through Day 33
Duration of Hospitalization for RSV or Other CausesDay 1 through Day 33
All-cause MortalityDay 1 through Day 33
RSV RNA Viral Load Change From Baseline for the mITT PopulationDays 3, 5, 9, and 14
Change in Infectious RSV Viral Load Over TimeUp to Day 14
Proportion of Subjects With RSV RNA Viral Load Target Not Detected (TND) for the mITT PopulationDays 1, 3, 5, 9 and 14
Time to RSV RNA Viral Load TND for the mITT PopulationDay 1 through Day 14Time to RSV viral load TND is defined as the time between the date of first dose to the first date of achieving viral load TND.

Change From Baseline in Severity of RSV LRTD SymptomsDay 1 through Day 33The RiiQ Infection Intensity Scale assesses 4 symptoms of LRTD (cough, shortness of breath, wheezing, and expectoration) on a scale from 0 (absent) to 3 (severe). The composite LRTD Score is the average of all 4 individual item scores.
Time to Resolution of RSV Infection Symptoms by Patient Global Impression of Severity (PGI-S) Scale Score for the mITT PopulationDay 1 through Day 33PGI-S is a 7-point patient-reported scale ranging from 1 (normal/none) to 7 (among the most extremely ill); lower scores indicate less severe disease.

Time to resolution is calculated as: date/time of resolution - date/time of first dose with conversion to days.
