简要总结
Oseltamivir dosing in infants < 3 months of age is based on a single pharmacokinetic study in 20 infants from a single center. This dataset is limited by a lack of robustness, because only 1 sample was collected from each participant. The investigators obtained two blood samples each from infants receiving oseltamivir after obtaining informed consent from the infant's parents. The investigators propose to analyze the blood samples to determine the amount of oseltamivir in the infant's blood. Measurement of these values will increase the understanding of the absorption and elimination of oseltamivir in preterm and term infants, and improve our ability to provide the correct doses to this high risk population.

研究组 & 干预措施
Oseltamivir exposure
One infant in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at St. Louis Children's Hospital experienced respiratory decompensation and tested positive for influenza virus type A by fluorescent antibody stain performed on a nasopharyngeal swab. This infant received treatment doses of oseltamivir. Subsequently, 27 other infants received oseltamivir prophylaxis for exposure to influenza virus type A. Exposed infants were those who shared a primary medical team, nursing care, respiratory therapist, physical therapist, or occupational therapist with the influenza A positive infant. Prophylaxis was deemed necessary by the attending neonatologist after consultation with the Infectious Diseases Division of the Department of Pediatrics at the Washington University School of Medicine.
干预措施: Oseltamivir (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Oseltamivir pharmacokinetics in neonates and infants
时间窗: Two sample points, one 0-3 hours (baseline) and one 3-24 hours post dose
Pharmacokinetic parameters calculated for individual subjects will include apparent distribution volume and elimination half-life of oseltamivir (OST) and OST carboxylate (CBX). Area under the plasma concentration versus time curve (AUC) of OST and OST CBX will be determined using the trapezoidal method. A population pharmacokinetic model will be generated based on pooled pharmacokinetic data (2-compartment model for OST and 1-compartment model for OST CBX) utilizing maximum likelihood estimation. A weight-based dosing table will be generated to provide AUC exposures comparable to adults.
次要结局
- Oseltamivir target level attainment(Two sample points, one 0-3 hours (baseline) and one 3-24 hours post dose)
