Recent trials have highlighted the potential of oral antiviral VV116 in the treatment of patients with mild COVID-19. However, no comprehensive studies have assessed the safety and efficacy of VV116. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review to assess the safety and efficacy of VV116.
A comprehensive search was conducted on PubMed, Scopus, and Google Scholar websites, with a cutoff date of March 23, to identify pertinent studies.
The results from the 3 included studies indicated that no serious adverse events were reported in the VV116 experimental groups, which exhibited a 2.57-day faster time to viral shedding than the control group and demonstrated non-inferiority to the nirmatrelvir-ritonavir control group in alleviating major symptoms.
Collectively, available studies suggest a reliable safety and efficacy profile for VV116. However, the limited number of trials was insufficient for meta-analysis, and the included population consisted of younger individuals with mild and moderate symptoms, not encompassing the elderly who are severely affected by COVID-19. We hope that more studies will be conducted in the future to ensure that VV116 has a more reliable safety and efficacy profile in the clinical setting, especially in severe or critical patients.
最近的试验强调了口服抗病毒药物 VV116 在治疗轻症 COVID-19 患者方面的潜力。然而,尚无综合研究评估 VV116 的安全性和疗效。因此,我们进行了一项系统评价,以评估 VV116 的安全性和疗效。
在 PubMed、Scopus 和 Google Scholar 网站上进行了全面检索,截止日期为 2023 年 3 月 23 日,以确定相关研究。
纳入的 3 项研究结果表明,VV116 实验组未报告严重不良事件,病毒脱落时间比对照组快 2.57 天,在缓解主要症状方面与奈玛特韦-利托那韦对照组相当。
综合来看,现有研究表明 VV116 具有可靠的安全性和疗效。然而,试验数量有限,无法进行荟萃分析,且纳入人群为轻症和中度症状的年轻个体,不包括 COVID-19 重症患者。我们希望未来能开展更多研究,以确保 VV116 在临床环境中具有更可靠的安全性和疗效,特别是在重症或危重症患者中。
