Description
(extracted from source data)
DESCRIPTION Remdesivir (GS-5734) is a nucleotide analogue drug that was developed by Gilead Sciences for antiviral potential, in particular for anti-Ebola and anti-Marburg virus activity . It acts is an inhibitor of the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) that functions as a chain terminator during viral RNA synthesis. Remdesivir is a prodrug whose major active metabolite is . Its 1'-CN group and C-linked nucleobase ensure optimal anti-Ebola potency and selectivity against host polymerase enzymes. Remdesivir has broad-spectrum activity against several viral families such as filoviruses, paramyxoviruses, and coronaviruses, and including the SARS and MERS coronaviruses (CoVs), endemic circulating human CoVs, and against SARS-CoV-2 . The first patient to test positive for SARS-CoV-2 in the US was treated with i.v. remdesivir (using compassionate use of an investigational therapy prescribing) and his clinical condition improved significantly within the next 24h without observation of adverse effects .

DESCPRITION Remdesivir is an investigational nucleotide analog with broad-spectrum antiviral activity. Remdesivir has demonstrated in vitro and in vivo activity in animal models against the viral pathogens MERS and SARS, which are also coronaviruses and are structurally similar to COVID-19. The limited preclinical data on remdesivir in MERS and SARS indicate that remdesivir may have potential activity against COVID-19
