Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this clinical investigation is to evaluate the efficacy and immunologic effects of a non-pharmacological exercise intervention (push-ups) compared to an oral NSAID (ibuprofen) and an oral placebo to decrease local injection site inflammation symptoms of delayed pain, erythema, and edema and any impact on serologic antibody immune response after influenza vaccine receipt.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study will evaluate the efficacy and immunologic effects of a non-pharmacological exercise intervention (push-ups) compared to an oral NSAID (ibuprofen) and a blinded oral placebo to decrease local injection site inflammation symptoms of delayed pain, erythema, and edema and any impact on serologic antibody immune response after influenza vaccine receipt. A healthy military cohort will be randomly assigned to either perform push-ups consistent with their army physical fitness score, or to take a blinded oral medication which will be an NSAID (ibuprofen) or an oral placebo. The study will require three visits for assessment: on the day of vaccine receipt, 48-72 hours later and 21 -28 days later. The assessment visits will include injection site inspection, an injection site photograph, completion of symptom diaries and a validated pain scale and a laboratory blood specimen at the first and third visit to measure antibody level changes. The exercise participants will also be required to provide 1-2 fingerstick blood samples to evaluate for lactate, which is a byproduct of anaerobic exercise to measure if level of exercise effort achieved anaerobic metabolism. The study will evaluate if either of the interventions impacted perceived delayed pain, physical signs of inflammation or antibody response as measured by serology.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Ibuprofen

Randomized and double blinded study participants assigned to Group A intervention will receive an oral NSAID of ibuprofen 800 mgs three times a day for 48 hours.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Ibuprofen

Intervention Type DRUG

The participants will take their first dose of the study drug immediately after influenza vaccine receipt. The medication will be blinded and dispensed by a research pharmacist. The participants will receive instructions on the dosing, frequency and a recommendation to take with food or milk and will be provided a snack with their first dose.

Placebo

Randomized and double blinded study participants assigned to Group B intervention will receive an oral placebo three times a day for 48 hours starting immediately after influenza vaccine receipt.

Group Type PLACEBO_COMPARATOR

oral placebo

Intervention Type DRUG

The participants will take their first dose of the study drug immediately after influenza vaccine receipt. The medication will be blinded and dispensed by a research pharmacist. The participants will receive instructions on the dosing, frequency and a recommendation to take with food or milk and will be provided a snack with their first dose.

Compound Exercise of Push-ups

Randomized study participants assigned to Group C will perform an exercise intervention of push-ups immediately after influenza vaccine receipt.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Compound Exercise of Push-ups

Intervention Type BEHAVIORAL

The participants will perform an exercise intervention of push-ups as immediately as possible but no more than 15 minutes after influenza vaccine receipt. The number of pushups performed will be at least 80% of the participants last Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) score in one session. The number of pushups will be recorded. A baseline lactate fingerstick blood specimen will be collected with either the serology sample (if possible) or from the hand opposite the vaccine receipt arm prior to performing pushups and a second finger stick sample within 3-8 minutes, but no more than 15 minutes after vaccine receipt.
