A Double-Blind, Randomized, Stratified Multi-Center Trial Evaluating Conventional and Double Dose Oseltamivir in the Treatment of Immunocompromised Patients With Influenza
In Brief
A Phase 3 clinical trial evaluating oseltamivir and placebo for Influenza, Human. Completed, enrolled 228 participants across 208 sites in 26 countries.
Detailed Summary
This 2-arm study will investigate the safety and tolerability of oseltamivir for the treatment of influenza in immunocompromised participants and characterize the effects of oseltamivir in immunocompromised participants on the development of resistant influenza virus. Eligible immunocompromised participants with laboratory-confirmed influenza will be randomized to receive either conventional dose (30 milligrams \[mg\] to 75 mg twice daily orally \[po\], depending on age and weight) or double dose (60 mg-150 mg twice daily po depending on age and weight) olseltamivir for 10 days. Nasal and throat swabs will be taken, and safety evaluations made, at intervals during the study. The anticipated time on study medication is 10 days and the anticipated time on study is 40 days.
