Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
\- Influenza (flu) is a virus that causes people to get sick. Most of the time, the flu causes only a mild illness, but some people can become seriously ill or even die from it. Currently, some pills and inhaled powders can be used to treat the flu, but they only make flu symptoms end about a day sooner. More treatment choices for the flu are needed, especially for those who become seriously ill. Researchers want to test a new drug, AVI-7100, that might keep a person who takes it from having a more serious case of the flu.
Objectives:
\- To see how healthy adult volunteers tolerate the AVI-7100 anti-influenza drug.
Eligibility:
\- Healthy volunteers of normal weight between 18 and 60 years of age.
Design:
* Participants will be screened with a physical exam and medical history. Blood and urine samples will be collected. A heart function test will also be performed.
* Participants will have either AVI-7100 or a placebo infusion. They will not know which infusion they have. . Participants will stay at the clinical center for a total of 8 hours after the infusion. Blood samples will be collected 1, 2, 4, and 8 hours after the end of the infusion
* Participants will return on Days 1, 2, 4, 10, and 28 after receiving the drug. Blood and urine samples will be collected. A heart function test will also be performed.
* There will be a second part of the study that is separate from the first one. Additional people will receive either AVI-7100 or placebo to test their reactions to a specific dose.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This study will evaluate the safety of a novel RNA based therapeutic AVI-7100. Beginning with a low single-dose, subjects are randomized to receive either AVI-7100 or placebo and evaluated on Study Days 0, 1, 2, 4, 10, 28. The safety and tolerability is evaluated using symptoms, clinical laboratory tests, ECG, and pharmacokinetics. Utilizing a series of stopping rules and a medical monitor, the dose will be escalated as safety and tolerability are established. Once the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is established in the first part of this study (either limited by adverse effects or up to maximum anticipated dose), the safety and tolerability of multi-dose administration will begin (replicating anticipated clinical use). Subjects again are randomized to either AVI-7100 or placebo daily for 5 days, and evaluated on Study Days 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 14, and 32. The dose used in the multi-dose cohorts will also be escalated as safety and tolerability are established.

Eligibility Criteria
Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.
Inclusion Criteria
2. Body mass index (BMI) of 19-32 kg/m(2)
3. Estimated glomerular filtration rate greater than or equal to 90 mL/min at screening, calculated using the MDRD formula
4. Subjects must agree to:

5\. One of the following in order to avoid pregnancy:
* Females who are able to become pregnant (i.e., are not postmenopausal)
* have not undergone surgical sterilization, and are sexually active with men) must agree to use at least 2 effective forms of contraception.
* From the date of the subject s signing of the informed consent form through 28 days after the last dose of study drug. At least one of the methods of contraception should be a barrier method.
* Males who have not undergone surgical sterilization and are sexually active with women must agree to use condoms plus have a partner use at least one additional effective form of contraception from the date of the subject s signing of the informed consent form through 28 days after the last dose of study drug.
