About this study

Official title: A Multicenter, Randomized, Double-blind, Positive Controlled Phase Ⅲ Clinical Trial of ZX-7101A Tablets to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy in the Treatment of Uncomplicated Influenza in Children Aged 5-11 Years

A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, positive controlled, phase III trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of ZX-7101A tablets versus oseltamivir phosphate suspension in children aged ≥5 years and < 12 years with uncomplicated influenza.

Read the detailed description

Part 1:

A pilot study of pharmacokinetics, safety, and efficacy was conducted in children (5-11 years old, weight ≥20kg) with uncomplicated influenza. A total of 12 subjects were planned to be enrolled. (Pharmacokinetic and safety data from at least 8 children are required.) On the first day, ZX-7101A 20 mg tablets, 2 tablets (specification: 10 mg/ tablet) were taken orally. PK samples were collected before and after the first (D1) dose: 1 to 2 h, 4 h, 8 h, 24 h (D2), 96 h (D5), 192 h (D9) and 336 h (D15) after administration.

Part 2:

A randomized phase III study with safety as primary endpoint was conducted in children (5-11 years old, body weight ≥20kg) with uncomplicated influenza. Eligible subjects were randomly assigned in a 2:1 ratio to receive either ZX-7101A or oseltamivir phosphate.

Enrolled subjects were required to have typical systemic and/or respiratory influenza symptoms, with first influenza symptoms occurring within 48 hours of randomization. The study was divided into a screening/treatment period (D1) and an observation period (approximately 2 weeks).

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ZX-7101A and Oseltamivir phosphate dry suspension in people with Respiratory Viral Infection, run by Nanjing Zenshine Pharmaceuticals at 3 sites in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 34 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Aug 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. 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?

The study was stopped early (reason given: Due to the company's development strategy.). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Pharmacokinetic parameters of ZX-7101A and its metabolite ZX-7101 in plasma (time frame: Part 1: 1~2, 4, 8, 24, 96 ,192, 336 hours post-dose). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 13 Aug 2025.
