- All sexes
- No healthy volunteers
- Child, Adult, Older adult
Who may be able to join
- Age ≥12 years of age, male or female.
- Able to provide informed consent, or for whom consent may be provided by guardian, unless informed consent provided by a guardian or a legally authorized representative is not consistent with applicable local or ethical concerns, procedures, directives and/or guidelines.
- Subject must have at least one of the following clinical presentations at Screening:

What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
Peramivir+SOCDrug
- Adults (≥ 18 years): Peramivir (BCX-1812) 600 mg, administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care.
- Adolescents (12-17 years): Peramivir (BCX-1812) 10 mg/kg (not to exceed a maximum dose of 600 mg), administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care.
Placebo+SOCDrug
Placebo Peramivir (BCX1812) administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Peramivir+SOC | Experimental | * Adults (≥ 18 years): Peramivir (BCX-1812) 600 mg, administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care.
* Adolescents (12-17 years): Peramivir (BCX-1812) 10 mg/kg (not to exceed a maximum dose of 600 mg), administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care. Receives: Drug: Peramivir+SOC |
| Placebo+SOC | Placebo comparator | Placebo Peramivir (BCX1812) administered intravenously, once daily (every 24 hrs) for 5 days (5 doses) in addition to institution's standard of care. Receives: Drug: Placebo+SOC |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Time to Clinical Resolution (Kaplan-Meier Estimate)
Time to clinical resolution was defined as the time in hours from initiation of study treatment until normalization of at least 4 of the 5 signs within the respective normalization criteria, maintained for at least 24-hours. Time to clinical resolution was summarized by treatment group using the method of Kaplan-Meier. For subjects who did not experience clinical resolution, values were censored at the date of their last non-missing assessment of clinical resolution during the study (whether this assessment occurred as an inpatient or as an outpatient).
Measured: 10 days
Secondary outcomes (6)
Change (Reduction) in Influenza Virus Titer
The reduction in viral shedding was assessed as the change from baseline in log10 tissue culture infective dose50 (TCID50/mL) and RT-PCR and was summarized for each treatment group and study visit.
Measured: Baseline and 24, 48, 108 hours
Time to Alleviation of Clinical Symptoms of Influenza
Time to alleviation of clinical symptoms of influenza was measured as the time from the first dose of study drug through the time period in which all 7 symptoms of influenza (cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, myalgia [aches and pains], headache, feverishness, and fatigue) were absent or rated as no greater than mild for at least 24 hours. Time to alleviation of symptoms was estimated using the method of Kaplan-Meier. Subjects who did not have resolution of any individual clinical sign were censored at the time of their last non-missing assessment of that sign.
Measured: 10 days
Time to Resolution of Fever (Kaplan-Meier Estimate)
Time to resolution of fever was measured as the time from initiation of study treatment until resolution of fever, maintained for at least 24 hours; temperature measurements taken less than 4 hours after antipyretic use were treated as missing values.
Measured: 10 days
Time to Resumption of Usual Activities
Time to resumption of usual activities was determined from the visual analog scale (scale ranged from 0 to 10 where 0 indicated subject was unable to perform usual activities at all and 10 indicated subject was able to perform all usual activities fully). Time to resumption of usual activities was summarized by treatment group using the method of Kaplan-Meier.
Measured: 10 days
Number of Subjects With ICU Admission
The number of subjects requiring ICU admission post-randomization was summarized by treatment group.
Measured: 10 days
Duration of All ICU Admissions (Kaplan-Meier Estimate)
Duration of postbaseline ICU admission was defined as the total number of days in the ICU for those subjects who had a post-baseline admission to the ICU. Only days starting after the initial postbaseline admission were included. If a subject's stay in the ICU was ongoing, the duration was censored at the last study visit. Subjects who did not have a postbaseline admission had a duration of 0.
Measured: 10 days

What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 12 Feb 2015). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Time to Clinical Resolution (Kaplan-Meier Estimate) (time frame: 10 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00958776, which also lists 1 linked publication.
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Feb 2015.
