Inclusion Criteria

Aged 18 to 55 years on the day of first dosing with Investigational Medicinal Product (IMP).
Physician diagnosed asthma for at least 6 months prior to Screening and using treatment equivalent up to and including Global Initiative for Asthma (GINA) Stage 3.
A pre-bronchodilator FEV1 = 60% of predicted subject’s normal value at the first screening, on admission to quarantine, and prior to dosing on Day -2.
In good health with no history of major medical conditions from the medical history, physical examination, and routine laboratory tests as determined by the Investigator at a screening evaluation. A subject with a history of Herpes type 1 or 2 infection may be included if there are no active lesions present and the subject is not taking active medication.
A total body weight = 50 kg and Body Mass Index (BMI) = 18 kg/m2. If the BMI is more than 30 kg/m2, the subject may be included if the waist measurement is less than 102 cm (male), or less than 88 cm (female).
The following inclusion criteria are applicable to subjects in a heterosexual relationship (i.e., the criteria do not apply to those in a same sex relationship):
- True abstinence - when this is in line with the preferred and usual lifestyle of the subject. (Periodic abstinence [e.g., calendar, ovulation, symptothermal, post-ovulation methods] and withdrawal are not acceptable methods of contraception).
Female study subjects who are not heterosexually active must have periodic confirmation of continued abstinence from heterosexual intercourse
Or
- Two forms of effective contraceptive methods among (between) the couple, which are defined as:
For males:
i. Condom with spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream, sterilisation (with the appropriate post-vasectomy documentation of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate. This applies only to males participating in the study).
For females:
i.Women no longer of child bearing potential (post-menopausal females are defined as having a history of amenorrhea for at least 2 years, otherwise they should have documented status as being surgically sterile or post hysterectomy. The latter applies only to female subjects participating in the study).
ii.If of childbearing potential, acceptable forms of contraception include:
Established (a minimum of 2 weeks prior to first dosing with IMP) use of oral, injected or implanted hormonal methods of contraception.
- Placement of an intrauterine device (IUD) or intrauterine system (IUS).
- Barrier methods of contraception or occlusive cap (diaphragm or cervical/vault caps), both with one of the following - spermicidal foam/gel/film/cream/suppository.
The longevity of contraception is as follows:
i. Male subjects must comply with agreed contraception at entry to quarantine, and continuing until 90 days after the date of Viral Challenge.
ii. Male subjects must not donate sperm following discharge from quarantine until 90 days after the date of Viral Challenge
iii. Female subjects of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test at screening and just prior to the date of first dosing with IMP and must be using contraception consi

Exclusion Criteria

History of life-threatening asthma, Diagnosis of COPD as defined by the current Global Initiative for Chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) 2014 guidelines.
Females who: • Are breastfeeding, or • Have been pregnant within 6 months prior to the study, or • Have a positive pregnancy test at any point during screening or prior to first dosing with IMP.
Any history or evidence of any clinically significant medical and psychiatric conditions (as defined in section 5.4 of the study protocol).
History or evidence of autoimmune disease or known immunodeficiency of any cause – with the exception of atopic eczema/atopic dermatitis as described in exclusion criteria number 5 of the protocol.
Exacerbation of asthma symptoms within 1 month prior to Screening and Day -4 and requiring the use of oral steroids, antibiotics, Accident and Emergency visit, or hospital admission.

Any significant abnormality altering the anatomy of the nose or nasopharynx (including significant nasal polyps).
Any clinically significant history of epistaxis (nosebleeds) within the last 12 months AND/OR • History of being hospitalized due to epistaxis on any previous occasion.
Any nasal or sinus surgery within 6 months of Viral Challenge.
Recurrent history of fainting.
Twelve-lead ECG recording with clinically relevant signs of pathology and conduction disturbances as judged by the Investigator.
Confirmed positive test for drugs of abuse and/or cotinine deemed by the Investigator to be clinically significant.
Venous access deemed inadequate for the phlebotomy and cannulation demands of the study.
Evidence of vaccinations within the 4 weeks prior to the planned date of first dosing with IMP. • Intention to receive any vaccination(s) before the last day of Follow-up. (NB. No vaccine restrictions will apply after the Day 28 Follow-up visit).
