The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is the first pandemic caused by coronavirus named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). Currently, there is no effective anti-SARS-CoV-2 drug approved worldwide for treatment of patients with COVID-19. Therapeutic options in response to the COVID-19 outbreak are urgently needed. To facilitate the better and faster development of therapeutic COVID-19 drugs, we present an overview of the global promising therapeutic drugs, including repurposing existing antiviral agents, network-based pharmacology research, antibody development and traditional Chinese medicine. Among all these drugs, we focus on the most promising drugs (such as favipiravir, tocilizumab, SARS-CoV-2 convalescent plasma, hydroxychloroquine, Lianhua Qingwen, interferon beta-1a, remdesivir, etc.) that have or will enter the final stage of human testing-phase III-IV clinical trials.
世界卫生组织(WHO)已宣布 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)是由严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2(SARS-CoV-2)引起的首次冠状病毒大流行。目前,全球尚无批准用于治疗 COVID-19 患者的有效抗 SARS-CoV-2 药物。迫切需要针对 COVID-19 爆发的治疗方法。为了促进治疗 COVID-19 药物的更好和更快发展,我们概述了全球有前途的治疗药物,包括重新利用现有的抗病毒药物、基于网络的药理学研究、抗体开发和中药。在所有这些药物中,我们专注于最有前途的药物(如法匹拉韦、托珠单抗、SARS-CoV-2 恢复期血浆、羟氯喹、连花清瘟、干扰素 beta-1a、瑞德西韦等),这些药物已经或即将进入 III-IV 期临床试验的最后阶段。
