Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), the causative viral pathogen of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), appears to have various clinical presentations and may result in severe respiratory failure. The global SARS-CoV-2-associated viral pneumonia pandemic was first reported in December 2019 in China. Based on known pharmacological mechanisms, many therapeutic drugs have been repurposed to target SARS-CoV-2. Among these drugs, remdesivir appears to be the currently most promising according to several clinical trials and reports of compassionate use. In this mini-review, we summarize the current evidence on the efficacy and challenges of remdesivir for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2(SARS-CoV-2)是导致 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的病原体病毒,它似乎有多种临床表现,并可能导致严重的呼吸衰竭。2019 年 12 月,中国首次报告了与全球 SARS-CoV-2 相关的病毒性肺炎大流行。基于已知的药理学机制,许多治疗药物已被重新用于针对 SARS-CoV-2。在这些药物中,根据几项临床试验和同情用药的报告,瑞德西韦似乎是目前最有希望的药物。在这篇迷你综述中,我们总结了瑞德西韦治疗 2019 年冠状病毒病(COVID-19)的疗效和挑战的现有证据。
