Fitness of influenza A and B viruses with reduced susceptibility to baloxavir: A mini‐review
Bibliographic record
Abstract
), constitute an important class of antivirals recommended against seasonal influenza A and B infections. NAIs target the surface NA protein whose sialidase activity is responsible for virion release from infected cells. Because of their pivotal role in the transcription/translation process, the polymerase acidic (PA) and polymerase basic 1 and 2 (PB1 and PB2, respectively) internal proteins also constitute targets of interest for the development of additional anti-influenza agents. Baloxavir marboxil (BXM), an inhibitor of the cap-dependent endonuclease activity of the influenza PA protein, was approved in the United States and Japan in 2018. Baloxavir acid (BXA), the active compound of BXM, demonstrated a potent in vitro activity against different types/subtypes of influenza viruses including seasonal influenza A/B strains as well as avian influenza A viruses with a pandemic potential. A single oral dose of BXM provided virological and clinical benefits that were respectively superior or equal to those displayed by the standard (5 days, twice daily) oseltamivir regimen. Nevertheless, BXM-resistant variants have emerged at relatively high rates in BXM-treated children and adults. Consequently, there is a need to study the fitness (virulence and transmissibility) characteristics of mutants with a high potential to emerge as such variants can compromise the clinical usefulness of BXM. The purpose of this manuscript is to review the fitness properties of influenza A and B isolates harbouring mutations of reduced susceptibility to BXA.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
