About this trial

This is an interventional prevention trial for Influenza, Human focused on measuring live attenuated flu vaccines, Influenza A (H1N1), intranasal application, replication-deficient influenza virus

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - 50 Years (Adult)MaleAccepts Healthy Volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
The purpose of this phase IIa trial is to evaluate the immunogenicity of a single dose of GHB11L1 administered by liquid nasal spray for vaccination against influenza A (H1N1) virus. This study is also performed to assess safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (shedding) of a single dose of GHB11L1 administered by liquid nasal spray.
Detailed Description
GHB11L1 intends to provide a novel vaccination for influenza virus infection. 48 healthy volunteers will be included in this phase IIa study investigating three dose levels. 16 subjects will be randomised at a ratio of 3:1 for GHB11L1 or placebo. Healthy male volunteers, 18-50 years of age and seronegative with respect to the applied virus antigens (antibody titers <1:10 detected) will be randomised. GHB11L1 will be administered once on day 1. Follow-up visits will be performed on days 2, 8 and 29.
