Effects of oral gavage administration of favipiravir and oseltamivir, either alone or in combination, on the survival of mice inoculated with influenza A/Mississippi/03/2001 (H1N1) H274Y (oseltamivir-resistant) virus.
| Compound (mg/kg/day) | Oseltamivir (100) | Oseltamivir (50) | Oseltamivir (25) | Oseltamivir (0) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Favipiravir (100) | –† | –† | –† | 10/10** |
| Favipiravir (50) | 10/10** | 10/10** | 10/10** | 10/10** |
| Favipiravir (25) | 9/10** (10.0) | 10/10** | 10/10** | 6/10** (9.25 ± 2.9) |
| Favipiravir (12.5) | 6/10** (11.5 ± 1.3) | 10/10** | 2/10 (10.0 ± 0.8) | 0/10 (10.0 ± 2.9) |
| Favipiravir (0) | 3/10* (11.7 ± 1.4) | 0/9 (9.4 ± 1.6) | 0/10 (9.4 ± 0.5) | 0/10 (8.7 ± 0.9) |
Results are demonstrated as survivors/total (mean day of death of mice that died during the 21-day observation period ± standard deviation). Mean without standard deviation data means only one mouse died.
p < 0.01;
p < 0.001, compared with placebo.
