DMID 21-0041; Influenza CVD 59000

Conditions

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The primary objective of EMIT-2 is to use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) design to implement interventions which are known to reduce inhalation (airborne) transmission, so that the contribution of transmission by route of aerosols for influenza may be identified.

Official Title

Evaluating Modes of Influenza Transmission Through the Conduct of Controlled Human Influenza Virus Infection Transmission Trials (CHIVITTs)

Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:Yes
Standard Ages:ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Provides written informed consent, able to comply with the planned study procedures, available for between 2 and 5 days stay in the research quarantine unit for the CHIVITT, and have the ability to attend the scheduled follow-up visits.
  2. * Subjects must be able to comprehend the study requirements, as evidenced by a score of ≥70% or better on the comprehension assessment (two attempts permitted).
  3. * Males and non-pregnant, non-breastfeeding females1 aged ≥18 and ≤59 years of age, at time of initial consent.
  4. * Laboratory-confirmed influenza infection within the past 48 hours at time of entry into the exposure event.
  5. * Within the past 48 hours at time of entry into the exposure event, onset of influenza-like illness, as defined as fever (measured oral temperature of ≥100.2°F or self-reported fever in the absence of a measured temperature) AND cough or sore throat, or onset of less specific symptoms with a positive molecular test for influenza virus infection
  6. * No self-reported or known history of alcohol or drug abuse within the past two years and no illicit drug use within the last 30 days.
  7. * Do not have clinically significant medical, psychiatric, and chronic or intermittent health conditions including those listed in Exclusion Criteria.
  8. * Does not have an ongoing symptomatic condition for which subject has had or has ongoing medical investigations but has not yet received a diagnosis or treatment plan.
  9. * Agrees to the collection of specimens for secondary research.
  1. * Female of childbearing potential who is breastfeeding or has positive urine pregnancy test upon admission to the hotel quarantine unit.
  2. * Presence of self-reported or medically documented significant medical or psychiatric condition(s)5
  3. * Asthma medications: inhaled, oral, or intravenous (IV) corticosteroids, leukotriene modifiers, long and short-acting beta agonists, theophylline, ipratropium, biologics.
  4. * Presence of immunosuppression or any medications that may be associated with impaired immune responsiveness7.
  5. * Including, but not limited to, corticosteroids exceeding 10 mg/day of prednisone equivalent, allergy injections, immunoglobulin, interferon, immunomodulators, cytotoxic drugs, or systemic corticosteroids or other similar or toxic drugs during the preceding 12-month period. Low dose topical and intranasal steroid preparations used for a discrete period are permitted.
  6. * Is a habitual smoker8 of tobacco, marijuana, or e-cigarettes per self-report.
  7. * Habitual smokers are those who smoke or vape more than four cigarettes, other tobacco products, e-cigarettes or marijuana in a week for more than three months or use an inhaled nicotine or marijuana product more than 3 days a week on average. Edible or patch forms of tobacco or marijuana products do not constitute an exclusion.
  8. * Known allergy or intolerance to treatments for influenza and other respiratory infections (including but not limited to acetaminophen/paracetamol).
  9. * History of a previous severe allergic reaction to medicines of any kind with generalized urticaria, angioedema, or anaphylaxis.
  10. * Presence of co-infection with SARS-CoV-2, as detected via a multiplex nucleic acid amplification test (e.g., Biofire).
  11. * Participating in any other interventional clinical research study that has a scheduled intervention 30 days prior to the CHIVITT or 30 after discharge from the research quarantine unit.
  12. * Any condition, to include medical and psychiatric conditions, that in the opinion of the Investigator, might interfere with the safety of the subject or the study objectives.
