Clinical Context
Peer-reviewed veterinary literature continues to shape everyday decision-making for production animal practice, especially when new evidence clarifies diagnosis, treatment selection, monitoring, or clinical outcomes.
What the Study Evaluated
A study published in Zhonghua jie he he hu xi za zhi = Zhonghua jiehe he huxi zazhi = Chinese journal of tuberculosis and respiratory diseases in 2026 evaluated [Efficacy and safety of pixavir marboxil for uncomplicated influenza in adults: a phase Ⅱ, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial]..
Key Findings
Objective: To evaluate the antiviral effect, clinical efficacy, safety and tolerability of pixavir marboxil in adult patients with acute, uncomplicated influenza. Methods: This was a multicenter, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group, dose-ranging phase Ⅱ clinical trial. Eligible participants were adults aged 18 to 64 years with acute, uncomplicated influenza, presenting within 48 hours of symptom onset with an axillary temperature ≥38.0 ℃ and ≥1 moderate-to-severe influenza symptom, who were neither severely ill nor at high risk for severe disease. Exclusion criteria included known hypersensitivity and recent...
