On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the outbreak of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) a pandemic. Since then, thousands of people have suffered and died, making the need for a treatment of severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) more crucial than ever.
The authors carried out a search in PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov and New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) for COVID-19 to provide information on the most promising treatments against SARS-CoV-2.
Possible COVID-19 agents with promising efficacy and favorable safety profile were identified. The results support the combination of copper, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), colchicine and nitric oxide (NO) with candidate antiviral agents, remdesivir or EIDD-2801, as a treatment for patients positive for SARS-CoV-2.
The authors propose to study the effects of the combination of copper, NAC, colchicine, NO and currently used experimental antiviral agents, remdesivir or EIDD-2801, as a potential treatment scheme for SARS-COV-2.
2020 年 3 月 11 日,世界卫生组织(WHO)宣布冠状病毒病(COVID-19)爆发为大流行。从那时起,成千上万的人遭受病痛折磨甚至死亡,因此,对于严重急性呼吸综合征相关冠状病毒-2(SARS-CoV-2)的治疗方法的需求比以往任何时候都更加迫切。
作者在 PubMed、ClinicalTrials.gov 和新英格兰医学杂志(NEJM)上搜索了 COVID-19 相关信息,以提供针对 SARS-CoV-2 最有前途的治疗方法的信息。
确定了一些可能具有良好疗效和安全性的 COVID-19 候选药物。这些结果支持将铜、N-乙酰半胱氨酸(NAC)、秋水仙碱和一氧化氮(NO)与候选抗病毒药物瑞德西韦或 EIDD-2801 联合用于治疗 SARS-CoV-2 阳性患者。
作者建议研究铜、NAC、秋水仙碱、NO 与目前使用的实验性抗病毒药物瑞德西韦或 EIDD-2801 联合使用的效果,作为 SARS-COV-2 的潜在治疗方案。
