Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This Phase 1/2 protocol is designed to collect safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetic data of two doses of Laninamivir Octanoate in children and adolescents. The protocol will also explore virology and efficacy endpoints.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Approximately 48 subjects aged 5-17 years inclusive will be randomised into the study.

Subjects with recent onset of presumptive influenza will have influenza A or B infection confirm by Rapid Antigen Test.

The study will be conducted on an outpatient basis. The dose is administered in a single session in the clinic on Day 1. The subject will return to the clinic for assessments and follow up.
