After being informed about the study and potential risks, all patient volunteers that have given written informed consent will undergo screening to determine eligibility for study entry. If the patient qualifies for the study, they will be randomized in a double-blind manner in a 1:1 ratio to receive NasoVAX or placebo. On the same day of qualifying into the study, the patient will be administered the investigational drug (either NasoVAX or placebo).
The patient will return home for the remainder of the study. During this period, the patient will be monitored remotely by the study center for clinical status. The patient will also be contacted by study center personnel by telephone to ask about the use of any medications and changes in health including information about any hospitalization.
