Laninamivir (CS-8958) is a neuraminidase inhibitor which is being researched for the treatment and prophylaxis of Influenzavirus A and Influenzavirus B.[1] It is currently in Phase III clinical trials. [2]

Laninamivir was approved for influenza treatment in Japan in 2010 and is currently marketed under the name "Inavir" by Daiichi Sankyo. Biota Holdings Ltd and Daiichi Sankyo co-own Laninamivir. On 1st April 2011, BARDA awarded up to an estimated U$231m to Biota Holdings Ltd's wholly owned subsidiary, Biota Scientific Management Pty Ltd, for the advanced development of Laninamivir in the US.
