Global update on the susceptibility of human influenza viruses to neuraminidase inhibitors and status of novel antivirals, 2016–2017

TLDR
This 2016/17 analysis demonstrates that neuraminidase inhibitors remain suitable for treatment and prophylaxis of influenza virus infections, but continued monitoring is important.

Influenza and antiviral resistance: an overview

TL;DR: There is evidence to suggest that these resistant strains (particularly H1N1 pdm09) are able to maintain their replicative fitness and transmissibility, although there is no clear evidence that being infected with a resistant strain is associated with a worse clinical outcome.

Treatment-Emergent Influenza Variant Viruses With Reduced Baloxavir Susceptibility: Impact on Clinical and Virologic Outcomes in Uncomplicated Influenza.

TL;DR: The emergence of viruses with PA/I38X substitutions following baloxavir treatment was associated with transient rises in infectious virus titers, prolongation of virus detectability, initial delay in symptom alleviation, and uncommonly with symptom rebound.
Journal ArticleDOI

Antivirals targeting the polymerase complex of influenza viruses.

TL;DR: Four compounds which inhibit polymerase function, baloxavir marboxil, favipiravir, pimodivir and AL-794 are discussed and their clinical and virological effectiveness are discussed, their propensity to select for resistance and their potential for future combination therapy with the most commonly used neuraminidase inhibitor, oseltamivir.

Incidence of adamantane resistance among influenza A (H3N2) viruses isolated worldwide from 1994 to 2005: a cause for concern

TL;DR: The authors' data raise concerns about the appropriate use of adamantanes and draw attention to the importance of tracking the emergence and spread of drug-resistant influenza A viruses.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surveillance for Neuraminidase Inhibitor Resistance among Human Influenza A and B Viruses Circulating Worldwide from 2004 to 2008

TL;DR: The recent increase in oseltamivir resistance among A(H1N1) viruses isolated from untreated patients raises public health concerns and necessitates close monitoring of resistance to NA inhibitors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Evidence for Zanamivir Resistance in an Immunocompromised Child Infected with Influenza B Virus

TL;DR: The data indicate that the current methods for monitoring resistant mutants are potentially flawed because no tissue culture system adequately reflects the receptor specificity of human respiratory tract epithelium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Recovery of drug-resistant influenza virus from immunocompromised patients: a case series.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a novel Asp198Asn NA mutation in an influenza B virus and its decreased susceptibility to both oseltamivirus and zanamivir.
