研究概览
简要总结
The investigators want to see if healthy people who are given 2 doses of a medication called anakinra, which is used to treat moderate to severe rheumatoid arthritis, (RA) and then exposed to a form of air pollution, called Endotoxin, have less inflammation with the medication. Endotoxin is believed to be one of the causes of asthma attacks.

研究组 & 干预措施
Anakinra
All subjects will undergo 2 CCRE challenges. Each subject will be given either anakinra or placebo prior to CCRE challenge
干预措施: Anakinra (Drug)
Placebo
Normal saline injection
干预措施: Placebo (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
blockade of IL-1 β will suppress neutrophil response to challenge with 20,000 EU CCRE
时间窗: 6 hours after inhalation of CCRE
The primary endpoints for this study will be a) safety assessments of anakinra with CCRE inhalation and b) the post CCRE challenge percentage of neutrophils (%PMN) in airway sputum during the anakinra treatment period compared to the placebo treatment period.
