Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Time to Alleviation of Symptoms in Participants Randomized to Baloxavir or PlaceboInitiation of study treatment up to Day 14Participants assessed the severity of seven influenza-associated symptoms (cough, sore throat, headache, nasal congestion, feverishness or chills, muscle or joint pain, and fatigue) on a 4-point scale (with 0 indicating no symptoms, 1 mild symptoms, 2 moderate symptoms, and 3 severe symptoms). Time to alleviation of symptoms was defined as the time from the start of the study treatment to the time when all seven influenza-related symptoms were assessed by the participant as absent (0) or mild (1) for at least 21.5 hours. Time to alleviation of symptoms was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method; participants who did not experience alleviation of symptoms were censored at the last observation time point.

Time to Alleviation of Symptoms in Adults Randomized to Baloxavir or Oseltamivir

Participants assessed the severity of seven influenza-associated symptoms (cough, sore throat, headache, nasal congestion, feverishness or chills, muscle or joint pain, and fatigue) on a 4-point scale (with 0 indicating no symptoms, 1 mild symptoms, 2 moderate symptoms, and 3 severe symptoms). Time to alleviation of symptoms was defined as the time from the start of the study treatment to the time when all seven influenza-related symptoms were assessed by the participant as absent (0) or mild (1) for at least 21.5 hours. Time to alleviation of symptoms was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier(KM) method; participants who did not experience alleviation of symptoms were censored at the last observation time point.

Time frame: Initiation of study treatment up to Day 14

Population: Participants in the intention-to-treat infection population, ≥ 20 years of age and assigned to baloxavir or oseltamivir, and with available time to alleviation of symptoms data.

Change From Baseline in Virus Titer at Each Time Point in Adults Randomized to Baloxavir or Oseltamivir

Virus titer was quantified from nasopharyngeal swabs (or throat swabs if nasopharyngeal swabbing was not feasible) by tissue culture methods. If virus titer was less than the lower limit of quantification, the virus titer was imputed 0.7 (TCID₅₀/mL).

Population: Participants in the intention-to-treat infection population, ≥ 20 years of age and assigned to baloxavir or oseltamivir, with a positive virus titer on Day 1 whose time to cessation of viral shedding by virus titer was not missing..

Time to Cessation of Viral Shedding Determined by Virus Titer in Participants Randomized to Baloxavir or Placebo

Time to cessation of viral shedding by virus titer was defined as the time between the initiation of the study treatment and first time when the virus titer was below the limit of detection (0.7 log₁₀\[TCID₅₀/mL\]). The median and 95% confidence interval (CI) for time to cessation of viral shedding determined by virus titer was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier (KM) method; participants whose virus titer had not reached cessation by the last observation time point were treated as censored at that time point.

Time frame: Day 1 to Day 9

Population: Participants in the intention-to-treat infection population assigned to baloxavir or placebo with a positive virus titer on Day 1 whose time to cessation of viral shedding by virus titer was not missing were included in this analysis.

Time to Resolution of Fever in Adults Randomized to Baloxavir or Oseltamivir

Time to resolution of fever was defined as the time between the initiation of the study treatment and the resolution of fever. The resolution of fever was defined as the time when the participant's self-measured axillary temperature became less than 37ºC and was maintained at less than 37ºC for a duration of at least 12 hours. Time to resolution of fever was analyzed using KM methods; participants who did not experience resolution of fever by the last observation time point were censored at that time point.

Time frame: Initiation of study treatment up to Day 14

Population: Participants in the intention-to-treat infection population, ≥ 20 years of age and assigned to baloxavir or oseltamivir, whose body temperature at baseline was more than 37°C and time to resolution of fever was not missing.

Time to Return to Preinfluenza Health Status in Adults Randomized to Baloxavir or Oseltamivir

Participants were asked to record their preinfluenza health status on a scale from 0 (worst possible health) to 10 (normal health \[for someone your age and your health condition\]), and their health status every day after initiation of study treatment on the same scale. Return to preinfluenza health status was defined as time from the initiation of the study treatment to the first time when the health status score was equal to or higher than the preinfluenza health status score. Time to return to preinfluenza health status was analyzed using KM methods; participants with a smaller number on the scale for health status by the last observation time point were censored at that time point.

Time frame: Initiation of study treatment up to Day 14

Population: Participants in the intention-to-treat infection population, ≥ 20 years of age and assigned to baloxavir or oseltamivir, whose health status score at baseline was lower than the preinfluenza health status score and with available time to return to preinfluenza health status data.
