This trial tests whether two flu medicines—baloxavir and oseltamivir—work better to treat influenza in people with weakened immune systems (like transplant or blood cancer patients). It may help reduce severe complications, especially when flu affects the lungs or is at high risk to do so.
This study tests how well a single-dose flu treatment (baloxavir marboxil) works for children with the flu and whether it stops the flu from spreading to family members. If your child has early flu symptoms and lives with others, participation could help protect your household.
This trial tests if a single dose of sebaloxavir can prevent flu in people who live with someone who has the flu. If you live with someone who tested positive for flu and you have no flu symptoms yet, you may qualify.
This trial tests two flu medicines—Tamiflu and Xofluza—to see if they can prevent flu in people who are staying in a hospital room with a patient who has the flu. You may join if you are a hospitalized close contact (roommate or caregiver) and test negative for flu.
This trial tests if taking suraxavir marboxil or oseltamivir can stop the flu from spreading to people sharing a hospital room with a patient who has the flu.
This Phase 2 study compares antiviral medicines in adults who have early, flu-like symptoms and test positive for influenza. It aims to see which antiviral treatment works best and is safe for people treated soon after symptoms start.
