Comprehensive assessment of amino acid substitutions in the trimeric RNA polymerase complex of influenza A virus detected in clinical trials of baloxavir marboxil

Takashi Hashimoto et al.

Summary: Background Baloxavir marboxil (BXM) is an approved drug that selectively targets cap-dependent endonuclease on PA subunit in the RNA polymerase complex of influenza A and B viruses. Amino acid substitutions at position 38 in the PA subunit were identified as a major pathway for reduced susceptibility to baloxavir acid (BXA), the active form of BXM. Additionally, substitutions found at positions E23, A37, and E199 in the PA subunit impact BXA susceptibility by less than 10-fold. These results highlight the importance of understanding the impact of specific amino acid substitutions on antiviral drug susceptibility.

Pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic analysis of baloxavir marboxil, a novel cap-dependent endonuclease inhibitor, in a murine model of influenza virus infection

Yoshinori Ando et al.

Summary: The relationship between pharmacokinetic parameters and antiviral activity of baloxavir acid was investigated based on virus titre reduction in lungs of infected mice. The results showed dose-dependent virus titre reductions with oral baloxavir marboxil, suggesting its potential for maximizing virological outcomes in clinical settings.

Evaluating the fitness of PA/I38T-substituted influenza A viruses with reduced baloxavir susceptibility in a competitive mixtures ferret model

Leo Y. Y. Lee et al.

Summary: This study evaluated the fitness of influenza viruses with reduced baloxavir susceptibility in ferrets. The results showed that these viruses had slightly reduced within-host fitness compared to wild-type viruses, but significant differences in between-host fitness, suggesting a compromised transmission ability.
