A double-stranded RNA of fungal origin (BRL 5907) was given intranasally to volunteers. Apart from mild local irritancy of the higher dosage, the compound was well tolerated. A double-blind placebo-controlled trial of a three-day course (5 mg per day) of BRL 5907 against challenge with rhinovirus type 4 showed that treatment was associated with a delay in onset of symptoms and a reduction in shedding of virus, but the differences were not statistically significant. Low titers of interferon were found in nasal washings.
将源自真菌的双链RNA(BRL 5907)经鼻给予志愿者。除了较高剂量时会有轻微的局部刺激外,该化合物耐受性良好。一项针对BRL 5907进行的为期三天疗程(每天5毫克)、与4型鼻病毒激发试验对比的双盲安慰剂对照试验表明,治疗与症状出现延迟及病毒排出减少有关,但差异无统计学意义。在鼻腔灌洗液中发现了低滴度的干扰素。
