Outcomes
Primary Outcome Measures
Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) Viral Load
Measured in nasal washes by quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) in participants inoculated with respiratory syncytial virus-A (RSV-A) Memphis 37b.
Secondary Outcome Measures
Area Under the Curve (AUC) of Total Symptom Score
Total symptom scores (from the 10-item Diary Card) were used to calculate the AUC. Each individual symptom score was graded on a scale of 0-3, where Grade 0 is absence, Grade 1 is just noticeable, Grade 2 is bothersome but does not prevent participation in activities and Grade 3 is bothersome and interferes with activities:
Runny nose
Stuffy nose
Sneezing
Sore throat
Earache
Malaise (Tiredness)
Cough
Shortness of breath
Headache
Muscle/ joint ache/ stiffness
Total symptom score is the sum of individual symptom scores with a potential range of 0 (best) to 30 (worst). Data presented is hours x score.
Peak Total Symptom Score
Peak total symptom score was defined as the highest total symptom score between first dose of study drug and Day 12. Values presented are a sum of individual symptom scores, with a potential range of 0 (best) to 30 (worst). Total symptom scores at the time of the first dose of study drug can be before or after dosing.
Measured by the 10-item Diary Card. Each individual symptom score was graded on a scale of 0-3, where Grade 0 is absence, Grade 1 is just noticeable, Grade 2 is bothersome but does not prevent participation in activities and Grade 3 is bothersome and interferes with activities:
