April 23, 2024 updated by: AlloVir

Phase 2 Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Placebo-controlled, Multiple Dosing Interval, 2-period Study of the Safety, Tolerability and Effectiveness of Adoptively Transferred Posoleuccel (ALVR105) Multivirus-specific T Cells in Kidney Transplant Recipients With Either High or Low Levels of BK Viremia

The purpose of this study is to compare Posoleucel (formerly known as ALVR105; Viralym-M) to placebo in kidney transplant recipients who have high or low levels of BK virus in their blood.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Number of Participants Who Experienced a Treatment-emergent Adverse Event (TEAE)
Time Frame: Day 1 to Week 24

An adverse event (AE) was defined as any untoward medical occurrence in a clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. TEAEs are defined as AEs with a start date and time on or after the first dose of study treatment through the end of study.

Clinically significant changes in vital signs, physical exams, laboratory assessments and electrocardiograms were also reported as TEAEs.

Day 1 to Week 24

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Change From Baseline in BK Viral Load
Time Frame: Baseline and Week 24
BK viral load was quantitated using polymerase chain reaction assays at the central laboratory. A negative change from baseline represents a reduction in BK viral load.
