Ganetespib for COVID-19

Ganetespib has been reported as potentially beneficial for COVID-19 in the following studies. We have not reviewed ganetespib in detail.
COVID-19 involves the interplay of over 100 viral and host proteins and factors providing many therapeutic targets. Scientists have proposed over 9,000 potential treatments. c19early.org analyzes 130+ treatments.
Singh et al., FDA-approved drug repurposing screen identifies inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 pseudovirus entry, Frontiers in Pharmacology, doi:10.3389/fphar.2025.1537912
Background and purposeThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has devastated global health and the economy, underscoring the urgent need for extensive research into the mechanisms of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viral entry and the development of effective therapeutic interventions.Experimental approachWe established a cell line expressing human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). We used it as a model of pseudotyped viral entry using murine leukemia virus (MLV) expressing SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) protein on its surface and firefly luciferase as a reporter. We screened an U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved compound library for inhibiting ACE2-dependent SARS-CoV-2 pseudotyped viral entry and identified several drug-repurposing candidates.Key resultsWe identified 18 drugs and drug candidates, including 14 previously reported inhibitors of viral entry and four novel candidates. Pyridoxal 5′-phosphate, Dovitinib, Adefovir dipivoxil, and Biapenem potently inhibit ACE2-dependent viral entry with inhibitory concentration 50% (IC50) values of 57nM, 74 nM, 130 nM, and 183 nM, respectively.Conclusion and implicationsWe identified four novel FDA-approved candidate drugs for anti-SARS-CoV-2 combination therapy. Our findings contribute to the growing body of evidence supporting drug repurposing as a viable strategy for rapidly developing COVID-19 treatments.
Patten et al., Identification of druggable host targets needed for SARS-CoV-2 infection by combined pharmacological evaluation and cellular network directed prioritization both in vitro and in vivo, bioRxiv, doi:10.1101/2021.04.20.440626
AbstractIdentification of host factors contributing to replication of viruses and resulting disease progression remains a promising approach for development of new therapeutics. Here, we evaluated 6710 clinical and preclinical compounds targeting 2183 host proteins by immunocytofluorescence-based screening to identify SARS-CoV-2 infection inhibitors. Computationally integrating relationships between small molecule structure, dose-response antiviral activity, host target and cell interactome networking produced cellular networks important for infection. This analysis revealed 389 small molecules, >12 scaffold classes and 813 host targets with micromolar to low nanomolar activities. From these classes, representatives were extensively evaluated for mechanism of action in stable and primary human cell models, and additionally against Beta and Delta SARS-CoV-2 variants and MERS-CoV. One promising candidate, obatoclax, significantly reduced SARS-CoV-2 viral lung load in mice. Ultimately, this work establishes a rigorous approach for future pharmacological and computational identification of novel host factor dependencies and treatments for viral diseases.
