Influenza
About this trial
This is an interventional treatment trial for Influenza focused on measuring Influenza, Influenza A, Flu, Flu A
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
- Age 18 through 65 years at the time of screening.
- Written informed consent and any locally required authorization (eg, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] in the USA, European Union [EU] Data Privacy Directive in the EU) obtained from the subject/legal representative prior to performing any protocol-related procedures, including screening evaluations.
- For subjects enrolled in Part 1 and Part 2 of the study, agree to remain restricted to an inpatient unit until released (anticipated to be 3 days and 2 nights for Part 1 and 9 days and 8 nights for Part 2).
- Able to complete the follow-up period through Day 60 as required by the protocol.
- Female subjects of childbearing potential must also have a negative urine or blood pregnancy test at screening, on Day -1 and on and Day 1 prior to randomization
- Females of childbearing potential who are sexually active with a non-sterilized male partner must use a highly effective method of contraception for at least 2 days prior to the first dose of study drug and must agree to continue using such precautions through Day 60 of the study; cessation of contraception after this point should be discussed with a responsible physician. Periodic abstinence, the rhythm method, and the withdrawal method are not acceptable methods of contraception.
Exclusion Criteria:
- History of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of the study drug, MEDI8852.
- For subjects enrolled in Part 2 of the study, history of allergic disease or reactions likely to be exacerbated by any component of OS.
- History of allergic disease or reactions to eggs or egg proteins
- Any fever ≥ 100.4°F (≥ 38.0°C) regardless of route of measurement and/or respiratory illness (eg, cough or sore throat) within 7 days prior to randomization.
- Renal impairment that would require modified dosing of OS (ie, estimated creatinine clearance of ≤ 60 mL/min).
- Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, might compromise subject safety or interfere with evaluation of the study drug or interpretation of subject safety or study results.
- History of Guillain-Barré syndrome.
- Hemagglutination antibody titer of >10 for the A/H1N1 challenge strain.
- Receipt of influenza antiviral therapy within the preceding 14 days.
- Concurrent participation in another interventional study.
- Previous receipt of an influenza mAb.
- Previous receipt of immunoglobulin or blood products within 6 months prior to screening.
- History of active infection with hepatitis B or C.
- Aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), or serum creatinine above 1.1 times the upper limit of normal (ULN) or haemoglobin, white blood cell count, or platelet count below 0.9 times the lower limit of normal at screening.
- Known immunodeficiency due to illness, including human immunodeficiency virus infection, or due to drugs, including any course of glucocorticoid therapy exceeding 2 weeks of prednisone or equivalent at a dose of 20 mg daily or every other day within 6 months prior to screening.
Note: Topical corticosteroids as prescribed by a physician for an acute, uncomplicated dermatitis may be used throughout the study; over the counter medications, including topical corticosteroids for an acute, uncomplicated dermatitis, may also be used throughout the study.
- Resides in a household with an individual who has moderate to severe immunosuppression due to illness or due to drugs.
Note: Examples include individuals with symptomatic Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome; cancer and transplant patients who are taking immunosuppressive drugs; and those with inherited diseases that affect the immune system (e.g., congenital agammaglobulinemia, congenital IgA deficiency)
- History of chronic lung disease (eg, asthma/reactive airway disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease).
Note: Childhood asthma that has not required treatment in adulthood is not necessarily exclusionary
- Pregnant or nursing mother.
- History of significant cardiac disease (eg, myocarditis, pericarditis, congestive heart failure, clinically significant arrhythmias).
- History of alcohol or drug abuse within the past 2 years that, according to the investigator, might affect assessments of safety or ability of subject to comply with all study requirements.
- Any planned surgical procedure before completion of Day 60.
- Employees of the sponsor, clinical study site, or any other individuals involved with the conduct of the study, or immediate family members of such individuals.
