RESUMO

The polymerase acidic (PA) I38T substitution is a dominant marker of resistance to baloxavir. We evaluated the impact of I38T on the fitness of a contemporary influenza A(H3N2) virus. Influenza A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2) wild-type (WT) virus and its I38T mutant were rescued by reverse genetics. Replication kinetics were compared using ST6GalI-MDCK and A549 cells and infectivity/contact transmissibility were evaluated in guinea pigs. Nasal wash (NW) viral titres were determined by TCID50 ml-1 in ST6GalI-MDCK cells. Competition experiments were performed and the evolution of viral population was assessed by droplet digital RT-PCR. I38T did not alter in vitro replication. I38T induced comparable titres vs the WT in guinea pigs NWs and the two viruses transmitted equally by direct contact. However, a 50 %:50 % mixture inoculum evolved to mean WT/I38T ratios of 71 %:29 % and 66.4 %:33.6 % on days 4 and 6 p.i., respectively. Contemporary influenza A(H3N2)-I38T PA variants may conserve a significant level of viral fitness.

RESUMO

The prolonged treatment of immunosuppressed (IS) individuals with anti-influenza monotherapies may lead to the emergence of drug-resistant variants. Herein, we evaluated oseltamivir and polymerase inhibitors combinations against influenza A/H3N2 infections in an IS mouse model. Mice were IS with cyclophosphamide and infected with 3 × 103 PFU of a mouse-adapted A/Switzerland/9715293/2013 (H3N2) virus. Forty-eight hours post-infection, the animals started oseltamivir, favipiravir or baloxavir marboxil (BXM) as single or combined therapies for 10 days. Weight losses, survival rates and lung viral titers (LVTs) were determined. The neuraminidase (NA) and polymerase genes from lung viral samples were sequenced. All untreated animals died. Oseltamivir and favipiravir monotherapies only delayed mortality (the mean day to death (MDD) of 21.4 and 24 compared to 11.4 days for those untreated) while a synergistic improvement in survival (80%) and LVT reduction was observed in the oseltamivir/favipiravir group compared to the oseltamivir group. BXM alone or in double/triple combination provided a complete protection and significantly reduced LVTs. Oseltamivir and BXM monotherapies induced the E119V (NA) and I38T (PA) substitutions, respectively, while no resistance mutation was detected with combinations. We found that the multiple dose regimen of BXM alone provided superior benefits compared to oseltamivir and favipiravir monotherapies. Moreover, we suggest the potential for drug combinations to reduce the incidence of resistance.
