The Efficacy of Aprotinin Combinations with Selected Antiviral Drugs in Mouse Models of Influenza Pneumonia and Coronavirus Infection Caused by SARS-CoV-2

The efficacy of aprotinin combinations with selected antiviral-drugs treatment of influenza virus and coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) infection was studied in mice models of influenza pneumonia and COVID-19. The high efficacy of the combinations in reducing virus titer in lungs and body weight loss and in increasing the survival rate were demonstrated. This preclinical study can be considered a confirmatory step before introducing the combinations into clinical assessment
