BACKGROUND: Immune response after intravenous peramivir administration, which is approved for children with influenza infection in Japan, is unclear. METHODS: Kinetics of viral load and serum cytokine levels before and after peramivir therapy were analysed in 17 and 8 hospitalized children infected with influenza A and B, respectively. Additionally, haemagglutination inhibition (HI) titre was measured. The first day of hospital admission was defined as day 0. RESULTS: Serum interleukin (IL)-6 levels in influenza-A-infected children significantly decreased after peramivir administration, unlike in those with influenza B where a decrease on day 1 was followed by an increase on day 2. Serum IL-6 kinetics were similar to viral load kinetics in both influenza-A- and B-infected children between days 0 and 2. Serum IL-8 levels gradually decreased after peramivir therapy in influenza-A-infected children but increased between days 1 and 2 in influenza-B-infected children. Conversely, serum IL-10 levels gradually decreased over time. Serum interferon-gamma and granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor levels remained low until day 5. Day 0-4 serum HI titres were <4-fold in all children infected with influenza A or B. Additionally, day 5 HI titres were positive in 4 of 6 influenza A cases and all 3 influenza B cases. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that viral load and inflammatory cytokine kinetics were associated with the antiviral therapy used and that second peramivir administration should be considered in influenza B. The results also highlight antiviral agents as key determinants of the clinical course of influenza virus infection in children.
