Objective. - The current study evaluated whether intranasal administration of the sialic acid analog 4-guanidino-Neu5Ac2en (GG167), an inhibitor of influenza virus neuraminidase, was effective and safe in either preventing or treating experimental human influenza.Methods. - Four randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trials involving three prophylaxis limbs, two early treatment limbs, and one delayed treatment limb were conducted.Setting. - Isolation in individual rooms.Participants. - Susceptible (serum hemagglutination-inhibition antibody titer less than or equal to 1:8) adult volunteers (n=166) were inoculated intranasally with 10(5) TCID50 influenza A/Texas/91 (H1N1) virus.Intervention. - GG167, 3.6 to 16 mg, was administered intranasally two or six times daily beginning 4 hours before inoculation (prophylaxis) or 1 or 2 days afterward (early or delayed treatment).Main Outcomes. - Virological measures were frequency of infection based on viral shedding and/or seroconversion (prophylaxis) or quantitative viral shedding based on titers and duration of virus recovery (treatment). Clinical measures were the frequency of febrile illness and symptom severity scores.Results. - Intranasal GG167 was well tolerated for both prophylaxis and therapy, For all dose groups combined, GG167 prophylaxis was 82% effective in preventing laboratory evidence of infection and 95% effective in preventing febrile illness (P
