Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percentage of Participants Who Developed Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Lower Respiratory Tract Infection (LRTI)
Percentage of participants who developed RSV LRTI was assessed. RSV LRTI was defined as the development of a lower respiratory sign or symptom (including decrease in oxygen saturation or increase in supplemental oxygen to maintain oxygen saturation, wheezing, rhonchi, rales, dyspnea, tachypnea, worsening cough) and positive RSV test from lower respiratory tract sample (example \[eg\], sputum, induced sputum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), lung biopsy, or autopsy specimen) within +-4 days of a new chest image finding, compared to baseline, consistent with a LRTI; OR positive RSV test from lower respiratory tract sample (eg, sputum, induced sputum, BAL, lung biopsy, or autopsy specimen) only; OR positive RSV test from upper respiratory tract sample within ±4 days of a new chest image finding, compared to baseline, consistent with a RSV LRTI as determined by the Endpoint Adjudication Committee (EAC).
Up to Day 28
Secondary Outcomes (27)
Percentage of Participants Who Developed RSV-associated Lower Respiratory Tract Complication (LRTC)
Up to Day 28
Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

Study Arms (2)
Adult cohort: JNJ-53718678 or Placebo
EXPERIMENTALParticipants greater than or equal to (\>=) 18 to less than or equal to (\<=) 75 years of age will receive 250 milligram (mg) JNJ-53718678 twice daily (bid) for 21 days (without coadministration with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors), or 125 mg JNJ-53718678 bid for 21 days (coadministered with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors with the exception of posaconazole), or 125 mg once daily (qd) for 21 days (when coadministered with posaconazole), or matching placebo for 21 days.
Adolescent cohort: JNJ-53718678 or Placebo
EXPERIMENTALParticipants \>=13 to \<18 years of age will receive 250 mg JNJ-53718678 bid for 21 days (without coadministration with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors), or 125 mg JNJ-53718678 bid for 21 days (coadministered with moderate or strong CYP3A4 inhibitors with the exception of posaconazole), or 125 mg qd for 21 days (when coadministered with posaconazole), or matching placebo for 21 days.
Interventions
JNJ-53718678 250 mg will be administered orally.
Matching placebo will be administered orally.
JNJ-53718678 125 mg will be administered orally.
Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Received an autologous or allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) using any conditioning regimen
- Absolute lymphocyte count (ALC) less than (\<) 1,000 cells/microliter (mL)
- Participant has laboratory confirmed RSV diagnosis within 48 hours of randomization
- New onset of at least 1 of the following respiratory symptoms within 4 days prior to the anticipated start of dosing nasal congestion, rhinorrhea, cough or pharyngitis (sore throat), and/or worsening of one of these chronic (associated with previously existing diagnosis, example, chronic rhinorrhea, seasonal allergies, chronic lung disease) respiratory symptoms within 4 days prior to the anticipated start of dosing
- Peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) greater than or equal to (\>=) 92 percent (%) on room air
You may not qualify if:
- Admitted to the hospital primarily for a lower respiratory tract disease of any cause as determined by the investigator
- Requires supplemental oxygen at Screening or any time between Screening and randomization
- Documented to be positive for other respiratory viruses (limited to influenza, parainfluenza, human rhinovirus, adenovirus, human metapneumovirus, or coronavirus) within 7 days prior to or at the Screening visit, if determined by local SOC testing (additional testing is not required)
- Clinically significant bacteremia or fungemia within 7 days prior to or at Screening that has not been adequately treated, as determined by the investigator

Limitations and Caveats
As the study was terminated early due to low number of participants enrolled, some efficacy analyses were not performed as per change in the planned analysis. Hence, data were collected and analyzed for safety and selected efficacy parameters only.
