Biochem/physiol Actions

Originally recognized as a powerful mutagen that preferentially induces AT-to-GC transition in microorganisms, EIDD-1931 (NHC, N4-hydroxycytidine) is an orally available ribonucleoside analog with known anti-viral activity against SARS-CoV, SARS-CoV-2, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), influenza A & B viruses (IAV & IBV), HCV, pestivirus, bovine viral diarrhoea virus (BVDV), Ebola virus (EBOV), Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV). NHC effectively reduces RSV and IAVs replication in mice, and exhibts efficacy in a guinea pig IAV transmission model in vivo (100 & 400 mg/kg b.i.d. p.o.). Metabolic studies reveal species-dependent plasma stability.

Coronaviruses (CoVs) have emerged from animal reservoirs to cause severe and lethal disease in humans, but there are currently no FDA-approved antivirals to treat the infections. One class of antiviral compounds, nucleoside analogues, mimics naturally occurring nucleosides to inhibit viral

Morbidity and mortality resulting from influenza-like disease are a threat, especially for older adults. To improve case management, next-generation broad-spectrum antiviral therapeutics that are efficacious against major drivers of influenza-like disease, including influenza viruses and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), are

Coronaviruses (CoVs) traffic frequently between species resulting in novel disease outbreaks, most recently exemplified by the newly emerged SARS-CoV-2, the causative agent of COVID-19. Here, we show that the ribonucleoside analog β-d-N4-hydroxycytidine (NHC; EIDD-1931) has broad-spectrum antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2
