- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Quantitative Reverse Transcription-polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR): RSV Area Under the Viral Load-time Curve (VL-AUC) Day 1 to Day 12 Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method qRT-PCR: RSV Peak Viral Load (VLPEAK) Day 1 to Day 12 Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
qRT-PCR: Time From the Assessment at the Time of the First Dose of IMP to RSV VLPEAK Day 1 to Day 12 Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
qRT-PCR: Time From the Assessment at the Time of the First Dose of IMP to RSV Viral Load Negativity Day 1 to Day 12 The time from the assessment at the time of the first dose of IMP to qRT-viral load negativity was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. Viral load negativity was reached at the first time when the viral load was undetectable (\< lower limit of detection \[LLOD\]) by qRT-PCR, after which no further detectable assessment appeared. Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
qRT-PCR: Time From the Assessment at the Time of the First Dose of IMP to First Negative Slope of RSV Viral Load Day 1 to Day 12 Time to first negative slope = time of the timepoint after which there are two consecutive declines in viral load - time of the nearest viral load assessment to the first dose of IMP. Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
qRT-PCR: RSV Viral Load Clearance Rate - EDP-323 High Dose Up to Day 16 Calculated as the slope of the RSV viral load over time from time of RSV VLPEAK to 1, 2, 3, and 4 days later. Estimates for fixed effects of a mixed linear model, modeling the viral load from peak up to the 4 following days, with time from VLPEAK, group and interaction between time and group as fixed effects and a random intercept within each participant. The model was a distinct analysis for the EDP-323 high dose and placebo groups where the estimates for both groups are model-dependent and impacted by the overall model. A negative slope indicated that the viral load decreased over time. Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.
qRT-PCR: RSV Viral Load Clearance Rate - EDP-323 Low Dose Up to Day 16 Calculated as the slope of the RSV viral load over time from time of RSV VLPEAK to 1, 2, 3, and 4 days later. Estimates for fixed effects of a mixed linear model, modeling the viral load from peak up to the 4 following days, with time from VLPEAK, group and interaction between time and group as fixed effects and a random intercept within each participant. The model was a distinct analysis for the EDP-323 low dose and placebo groups where the estimates for both groups are model-dependent and impacted by the overall model. A negative slope indicated that the viral load decreased over time. Measured by qRT-PCR in nasal samples.

Viral Culture: RSV VLPEAK Day 1 to Day 12 Measured by viral culture (plaque assay) in nasal samples.

Area Under the Total Symptom Score (TSS)-Time Curve (TSS-AUC) Day 1 to Day 12 An individual TSS (10-items) was derived at each assessment of the diary card as the sum of the scores given to the 10 following symptoms on that symptom score card, giving a score between 0 and 3:
* Runny nose
* Stuffy nose
* Sneezing
* Sore throat
* Earache
* Malaise/Tiredness
