Tecovirimat in Non-hospitalized Patients With Monkeypox

Monkeypox

PLATINUM-CAN is a parallel collaborative trial linked with the sister trial PLATINUM led by Oxford University. PLATINUM-CAN is a multi-centre, randomized, placebo-controlled trial of Tecovirimat in non-hospitalized patients with presumptive or PCR confirmed monkeypox infection. The study will provide evidence on the efficacy and safety of Tecovirimat for laboratory-confirmed monkeypox in outpatients with monkeypox infection and determine the feasibility of conducting interventional monkeypox trials in Canada.
