Background: Immunocompromised patients are at high risk of developing persisting/prolonged COVID-19. Data on the early combined use of antivirals and monoclonal antibodies in this population are scarce.
Research Design And Methods: We performed an observational, prospective study, enrolling immunocompromised outpatients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19, treated with a combination of sotrovimab plus one antiviral (remdesivir or nirmatrelvir/ritonavir) within 7 days from symptom onset.

Background: Although most cats with feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) respond to treatment with remdesivir or GS-441524 or both with uneventful clinical courses, some die despite treatment.
Objective: Identify predictive factors associated with short-term mortality in cats with FIP treated with IV remdesivir or PO GS-441524 or both.
Animals: A total of 108 client-owned cats with FIP.

Background And Objective: Remdesivir is a nucleotide analog prodrug approved for the treatment of COVID-19. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetics and safety of remdesivir and its metabolites (GS-704277 and GS-441524) in participants with varying degrees of renal impairment. Results of this phase I study, along with those of a phase III study, contributed to an extension of indication for remdesivir in the USA and Europe for use in patients with COVID-19 with all stages of renal impairment, including those on dialysis, with no dose adjustment.

Oral broad-spectrum antivirals are urgently needed for the treatment of many emerging and contemporary RNA viruses. We previously synthesized 1--octadecyl-2--benzyl--glyceryl-P-RVn (ODBG-P-RVn, V2043), a phospholipid prodrug of GS-441524 (remdesivir nucleoside, RVn), and demonstrated its efficacy in a SARS-CoV-2 mouse model. Structure-activity relationship studies focusing on the prodrug scaffold identified two modifications, 3-fluoro-4-methoxy-benzyl (V2053) and 4-cyano-benzyl (V2067), that significantly enhanced the broad-spectrum antiviral activity against multiple RNA viruses when compared to V2043.
