Influenza Infection
Conditions
Brief summary
This is a phase 2a double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of molnupiravir (MK-4482) in healthy participants inoculated with experimental influenza virus. The primary hypotheses are that MK-4482 initiated 12 hours following intranasal inoculation of the influenza challenge virus reduces the peak viral load compared to placebo and that MK-4482 initiated 2 days following intranasal inoculation of the influenza challenge virus reduces the viral load area under the curve (AUC) compared to placebo.
Detailed description
This study has two parts. Part 1 is an open-label validation study, with a cohort of 20 untreated participants undergoing nasal inoculation with the A/France/759/21 \[H1N1\] strain on Day 0 to confirm viral infectivity and disease. Part 2 will be a randomized, double-blind placebo- and active-comparator-controlled study where participants will be inoculated on Day 0 with either the A/France/759/21 \[H1N1\] virus used in Part 1 or an alternative influenza virus. Part 2 will evaluate the antiviral efficacy, pharmacokinetics, and safety of MK-4482 in participants inoculated with the challenge virus.
Interventions
Four molnupiravir 200 mg capsules (800 mg total dose) taken twice daily by mouth.
Four placebo capsules matched to molnupiravir taken twice daily by mouth.
Placebo capsule matched to oseltamivir taken twice daily by mouth.
One capsule of oseltamivir 75 mg taken twice daily by mouth.
Influenza A challenge virus given once by intranasal administration at an inoculum concentration of between approximately 5 and 7 Log10 tissue culture infective dose 50% (TCID50/mL).

Recruitment details
This was a 2-part study in healthy participants. Part 1 was an open label validation study to confirm that Part 2 can proceed using the same challenge strain.
Pre-assignment details
Before viral inoculation on Day 0, participants had serosuitability confirmed by negative hemagglutination inhibition and quarantined participants underwent additional screening to exclude those with respiratory pathogens, and participants who were excluded at this time did not receive study intervention.

VL-AUC is the area under the viral load-time curve of influenza challenge virus nasopharyngeal samples determined by qRT-PCR. H1N1 viral load was computed for each participant from nasophayngeal samples collected twice daily (morning and evening) from day 1 PM to day 8 AM. VL-AUC (on the log10 scale) was analyzed using a linear model with treatment group as a fixed categorical effect. Per protocol, only data for OTV Tx and placebo were presented for this endpoint.
Time frame: Day 1 PM, Days 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 - twice daily (AM and PM), and day 8 AM post viral inoculation
Population: All randomized participants who received 1 dose of the correct clinical material corresponding to the treatment group the participants were randomized into, who received the viral inoculation, meet the criterion for laboratory-confirmed influenza infection and had available data for the endpoint.

t1/2 of NHC
NHC is the pharmacologically active moiety of molnupiravir (MK-4482) and therefore its primary pharmacokinetic measure. t1/2 is the amount of time required to clear 50% of NHC following the oral administration of Molnupiravir. Per protocol, t1/2 for only Molnupiravir PEP and Molnupiravir Tx were reported.
Time frame: Day (D) 0, D2, D4: predose D5: predose, 0.5, 1.5, 4, 8, 12, 24, 48, 72 hours post dose
Population: All participants who comply with the protocol sufficiently to ensure that generated data will be likely to exhibit the effects of treatment, according to the underlying scientific model and had available data from at least one treatment.

Time to Maximum Plasma Concentration (Tmax) of NHC
NHC is the pharmacologically active moiety of molnupiravir (MK-4482) and therefore its primary pharmacokinetic measure. Tmax was defined as the time to peak concentration. Plasma samples were collected at multiple time points pre-and post-administration and used to determine Tmax following oral administration of Molnupiravir. Per protocol, Tmax for only Molnupiravir PEP and Molnupiravir Tx were reported.
