Experimental anti-viral drug Remdesivir used to treat COVID-19 patients

The drug was once used to treat Ebola. It is now being tested in clinical trials across the country including at several local hospitals. 

 

At least one doctor says the results so far are promising.

Multicare Institute for Research and Innovation—which is based in Tacoma—was chosen in March to participate in a clinical trial to see if the anti-viral drug Remdesivir is a safe way to treat COVID-19 patients.

The hospital is working directly with the drug maker Gilead Sciences on two clinical trials.

Dr. Vinay Malhotra said at his hospital, 40 patients have been treated with the anti-viral drug. 

According to Dr. Malhotra, 32 patients were in severe condition. 8 were in moderate condition. Of the 40 patents treated, Malhotra said 17 of them have already been discharged.

“Everyone is talking about the discharge of these patients. Everyone is talking about how good the effect is in three days,” Malhotra said. "We were fortunate to be chosen for this trial. And that has helped our population tremendously."

Remdesivir was first used as an experimental treatment for Ebola virus disease (EVD). In later testing, it was shown to be active against the viruses that cause severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS). Remdesivir mimics a molecule needed by the virus and interferes with the enzyme that allows it to replicate itself in an infected patient. It is designed to slow the infection of healthy cells in a patient’s body.
