Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine whether multiple therapeutic regimens are effective in the treatment of Ebola Virus Disease (EVD)
Detailed description
The ongoing epidemic of EVD has ravaged parts of West Africa, with initial cases reported in December 2013. There is no licensed specific therapy for the disease, which has a case-fatality rate of approximately 50-70%. Although anecdotal clinical data, recent studies in animal models, and in vitro screening suggest that treatment of EVD patients with anti-viral agents, immune modifying agents, and/or convalescent blood products may be effective, they have not been evaluated in clinical trials. This multi-arm clinical trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple regimens, both as mono-therapy and combination therapy. Provision of these regimens, if found effective and safe, would have a major impact on the current and future epidemics by providing effective treatment options. As described for previous adaptive trials, a randomization probability for each of the treatment regimens is created based on 14-day mortality, and is used for weighting randomization of subsequently enrolled participants. Participants will continually be preferentially assigned to regimens with better initial performance. New agents can be added or existing agents removed as the trial evolves.
