What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This trial is testing VIR-2482, a new treatment aimed at preventing the flu (influenza A). It focuses on healthy adults aged 18 to less than 65 years who do not have risk factors for serious flu complications. The treatment likely works by boosting the immune system or directly fighting the flu virus.

Do I need to stop taking my current medications to join the trial?

The trial information does not specify if you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial team or your doctor.

Is the treatment generally safe for humans?

Maraviroc, a CCR5 antagonist similar to VIR-2482, has shown a very favorable safety profile in clinical trials, with no significant increase in liver toxicity, serious infections, or neoplasms (tumors).12345
