Background: Easily distributed oral antivirals are urgently needed to treat coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), prevent progression to severe illness, and block transmission of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Change from Baseline in SARS-CoV-2 Viral Load The decrease in viral RNA from baseline to Days 3 to 28 was greater for the 800 mg molnupiravir group than any other group (Table 2 and Figure 2c ). For participants administered 400 or 800 mg molnupiravir, the least squares mean viral load change from baseline was significantly greater on Day 5 when compared to placebo, with differences in least squares means of -0.434 and -0.547 log 10 copies/mL (p = 0.03 and 0.006), respectively. Additionally, for participants administered 800 mg molnupiravir, the least squares mean viral load change from baseline was also significantly greater on Day 7 compared to placebo, with a least squares mean difference of -0.534 log 10 copies/mL (p = 0.006). The reduction in viral load from baseline to Day 5 between 800 mg molnupiravir and placebo remained significant during sensitivity analyses of participants who were negative for antibodies at baseline (least squares mean difference of -0.613 log 10 copies/mL; p = 0.002; Supplementary Table 6 ) and when compared to concurrent placebo (least squares mean difference of -0.376 log 10 copies/mL; p = 0.045; Supplementary Table 8 ). SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Detection Participants were tested for SARS-CoV-2-specific immunoglobulin (Ig) A, IgM, and IgG at baseline and on Days 7 and 28. The proportions of participants with any antibody to SARS-CoV-2 at baseline varied between the groups, with 15.0%, 30.0%, 35.3%, and 18.2% in the 200, 400, 800 mg..
