Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants With Adverse Events (AEs)Baseline to Day 100

An AE is any unfavorable and unintended sign (including an abnormal laboratory finding), symptom, or disease temporally associated with the use of a study drug, whether or not considered related to the study drug.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Percentage of Participants Requiring Antibiotics for Secondary Bacterial Respiratory InfectionsBaseline to Day 100

Participants with antibiotic usage for secondary bacterial respiratory infections were identified by counting participants with AEs containing the terms, "pneumonia, lung, myocarditis, ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome), otitis media, or respiratory."

Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of MHAA4549AUp to Day 100 (collections scheduled pre-dose [0 hours]; 60 minutes post-dose; and on Days 3, 5, 7, 30, and 100 post-dose; infusion duration = 2 hours)
Percentage of Participants With Complications of InfluenzaBaseline to Day 100

Participants with complications of influenza were identified by counting participants with AEs containing the terms, "pneumonia, lung, myocarditis, ARDS (acute respiratory distress syndrome), otitis media, or respiratory."

Percentage of Participants With Influenza A Relapse/ReinfectionBaseline to Day 100
Area Under the Concentration-Time Curve (AUC) of MHAA4549AUp to Day 100 (collections scheduled pre-dose [0 hours]; 60 minutes post-dose; and on Days 3, 5, 7, 30, and 100 post-dose; infusion duration = 2 hours)

The AUC is a measure of the plasma concentration of the drug over time. It is used to characterize drug absorption. AUC was measured in micrograms times hours per milliliter (mcg\*h/mL).

Time to Alleviation of Symptoms of Influenza A InfectionBaseline to Day 14

Time to alleviation of all 7 symptoms (i.e., nasal congestion, sore throat, cough, aches, fatigue, headaches, chills/sweats) was assessed using a rating scale of 0 (none), 1 (mild), 2 (moderate), or 3 (severe) for each symptom. The outcome was defined in two ways: time to a total symptom score of \<=1 and time to a total symptom score of \<=7. Resolution had to be maintained for 24 hours without use of symptom relief medications. For participants who were enrolled with mild symptoms, the symptom score had to be reduced by one point during the study duration.

Duration of Hospitalization for Influenza-Related ComplicationsBaseline to Day 100
Percentage of Participants With Influenza-Related DeathsBaseline to Day 100
Percentage of Participants Requiring Hospitalization for Influenza-Related ComplicationsBaseline to Day 100
