NCT01063933

Brief Summary

The purposes of this study are to evaluate the pharmacokinetics (affect the body has on a drug), and pharmacodynamics (affect the drug has on the body) and safety of an experimental intravenous (within a vein) flu medication, peramivir, in children. Participants will include 63 hospitalized children with confirmed flu. Children will be grouped according to age and younger children will not receive drug until safety data from the groups of older children are reviewed. Hospitalized children may receive up to 5 doses of peramivir. Study procedures include: nasal/throat swabs, reporting any experienced side effects, physical examination including assessment of the nervous system, and blood sample collection. Participants will be involved in study related procedures for up to 28 days.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Peramivir dose that provides area under the curve (AUC)24 between 60 microgram (mcg) hour(hr)/liter (L) and 94 mcg hr/L.

    Within 15 minutes prior to dosing, and at the following timepoints measured from the time of the start of the infusion: 1-1.25 hours (end of infusion), 2-3 hours, 5-7 hours, 10-12 hours, and 22-24 hours post-dosing.

  • Pharmacokinetic parameters for peramivir, including AUC24, maximum serum concentration (Cmax), half-life (T1/2), Clearance (CL), and time to maximum concentration (Tmax).

    Within 15 minutes prior to dosing, and at the following timepoints measured from the time of the start of the infusion: 1-1.25 hours (end of infusion), 2-3 hours, 5-7 hours, 10-12 hours, and 22-24 hours post-dosing.

Secondary Outcomes (11)

  • Safety: overall incidence of adverse events.

    Day 1 to Day 28

  • Safety: the incidence of grade 3-4 adverse events or severe adverse events.

    Day 1 to Day 28

  • Safety: the incidence of adverse events considered to be related to study treatment.

    Day 1 to Day 28

  • Safety: the incidence of adverse events leading to discontinuation of study drug.

    Day 1 to Day 28

  • Virologic: proportion of subjects who are negative for viral ribonucleic acid (RNA) by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (PCR).

    Day 3, 5, and 10.

  • +6 more secondary outcomes

Interventions

Peramivir is a liquid for parenteral administration. Cohort I: Peramivir, 10 mg/kg intravenously (IV) every day (QD) (maximum of 600 mg/day) for 5 days or until hospital discharge, whichever comes first. Cohort II: Peramivir 12 mg/kg IV QD (maximum of 600 mg/day) for 5 days or until hospital discharge, whichever comes first. Cohort III: Peramivir 16 mg/kg QD (maximum of 600 mg/day) for 5 days or until hospital discharge, whichever comes first. Proposed doses for subjects in Cohorts IV, V, VI, and VII are 18, 18, 14 and 12 mg/kg, respectively, IV, QD for 5 days or until hospital discharge, whichever comes first. IV peramivir will be administered over 60 minutes.
