    Outcomes

    Primary Outcome Measures

    The Number of West Nile Neuroinvasive Disease (WNND) Participants Who Show Improvement in the Modified Rankin Scale (MRS) (>=1 Improvement in Score)
    The MRS is a 7-point disability scale that assesses the degree of disability in subjects with neurological impairment. Possible scores range from 0 (perfect health) up to 5 (severe disability). The scale is as follows: 0 = No symptoms at all 1 = No significant disability despite symptoms; 2 = Slight disability; 3 = Moderate disability; 4 = Moderately severe disability; 5 = Severe disability; bedridden, incontinent and requiring constant nursing care and attention; 6 = Dead
    The Number of Participants Who Had At Least 1 Treatment-Related Adverse Event
    Includes adverse events considered possibly, probably, or definitely related to study drug

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    The Number of Participants With a Favorable Neurologic Outcome
    Favorable neurologic outcome responders are defined as subjects whose Modified Rankin Score is <=2. The MRS is a 7-point disability scale that assesses the degree of disability in subjects with neurological impairment. Possible scores range from 0 (perfect health) up to 5 (severe disability). The scale is as follows: 0 = No symptoms at all 1 = No significant disability despite symptoms; 2 = Slight disability; 3 = Moderate disability; 4 = Moderately severe disability; 5 = Severe disability; bedridden, incontinent and requiring constant nursing care and attention; 6 = Dead.
    Mean Modified Rankin Scale Scores
    The MRS is a 7-point disability scale that assesses the degree of disability in subjects with neurological impairment. Possible scores range from 0 (perfect health) up to 5 (severe disability). The scale is as follows: 0 = No symptoms at all 1 = No significant disability despite symptoms; 2 = Slight disability; 3 = Moderate disability; 4 = Moderately severe disability; 5 = Severe disability; bedridden, incontinent and requiring constant nursing care and attention; 6 = Dead.
    Time to a >= 1 Point Reduction in the Modified Rankin Scale Score

    Brief Summary
    This study will test a drug called MGAWN1 for the treatment of West Nile infections.
    Detailed Description
    The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety, efficacy, and pharmacokinetics of MGAWN1 in subjects with West Nile Fever or a syndrome compatible with West Nile Neuroinvasive Disease (WNND) [encephalitis, meningitis, or acute flaccid paralysis]. Subjects can be enrolled based on a syndrome compatible with WNND, and do not need documented West Nile virus infection.
