Study is withdrawn due to company decision.

The purposes of this study are to determine if MEDI8852 administered with standard of care (oseltamivir) will reduce the time to normalization of respiratory function for adults who are hospitalized with influenza caused by Type A strains and to determine if MEDI8852 has an acceptable safety profile in adults who are hospitalized with influenza caused by Type A strains.

The MEDI8852 phase 2b study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of a single intravenous (IV) dose of MEDI8852 or placebo administered in conjunction with oseltamivir in adult subjects who are hospitalized with influenza caused by Type A strains. Approximately 450 subjects will be enrolled at study centers in North America, Europe, and other regions.

Inclusion Criteria:

Age 18 years or older at the time of screening. Written informed consent and any locally required authorization (eg, Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act [HIPAA] in the United States, Data Privacy Directive in Europe) obtained from the subject/legal representative prior to performing any protocol related procedures, including screening evaluations.

• Any condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, would interfere with evaluation of study drugs or interpretation of subject safety or study results.
• Concurrent enrollment in another clinical study involving an investigational treatment. -Hospitalized > 72 hours (> 3 days) prior to receipt of a positive diagnostic test for influenza A.
• Receipt of > 72 hours or > 6 doses of treatment with a neuraminidase (NA) inhibitor. -Receipt of any investigational antiviral medications within 30 days prior to study drug dosing.
