COVID-19 Treatment Clinical Evidence
COVID-19 involves the interplay of 400+ viral and host proteins and factors, providing many therapeutic targets.
c19early analyzes 6,000+ studies for 210+ treatments—over 17 million hours of research.
Only three high-profit early treatments are approved in the US.
In reality, many treatments reduce risk,
with 25 low-cost treatments approved across 163 countries.
-
Naso/
oropharyngeal treatment Effective Treatment directly to the primary source of initial infection. -
Healthy lifestyles Protective Exercise, sunlight, a healthy diet, and good sleep all reduce risk.
-
Immune support Effective Vitamins A, C, D, and zinc show reduced risk, as with other viruses.
-
Thermotherapy Effective Methods for increasing internal body temperature, enhancing immune system function.
-
Systemic agents Effective Many systemic agents reduce risk, and may be required when infection progresses.
-
High-profit systemic agents Conditional Effective, but with greater access and cost barriers.
-
Monoclonal antibodies Limited Utility Effective but rarely used—high cost, variant dependence, IV/SC admin.
-
Acetaminophen Harmful Increased risk of severe outcomes and mortality.
-
Remdesivir Harmful Increased mortality with longer followup. Increased kidney and liver injury, cardiac disorders.

, Computational Screening of Repurposed Drugs Targeting Sars-Cov-2 Main Protease By Molecular Docking, Sudan Journal of Medical Sciences, doi:10.18502/sjms.v17i3.12125
Background: COVID-19 (Coronavirus disease 2019) is caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2), which poses significant global health and economic crisis that urges effective treatment.
 Methods: A total of 11 molecules (baricitinib, danoprevir, dexamethasone, hydroxychloroquine, ivermectin, lopinavir, methylprednisolone, remdesivir, ritonavir and saridegib, ascorbic acid, and cepharanthine) were selected for molecular docking studies using AutoDock VINA to study their antiviral activities via targeting SARS-CoV’s main protease (Mpro), a cysteine protease that mediates the maturation cleavage of polyproteins during virus replication.
 Results: Three drugs showed stronger binding affinity toward Mpro than N3 (active Mpro inhibitor as control): danoprevir (–7.7 kcal/mol), remdesivir (–8.1 kcal/mol), and saridegib (–7.8 kcal/mol). Two primary conventional hydrogen bonds were identified in the danoprevir-Mpro complex at GlyA:143 and GlnA:189, whereas the residue GluA:166 formed a carbon–hydrogen bond. Seven main conventional hydrogen bonds were identified in the remdesivir at AsnA:142, SerA:144, CysA:145, HisA:163, GluA:166, and GlnA:189, whereas two carbon–hydrogen bonds were formed by the residues HisA:41 and MetA:165. Cepharanthine showed a better binding affinity toward Mpro (–7.9 kcal/mol) than ascorbic acid (–5.4 kcal/mol). Four carbon–hydrogen bonds were formed in the cepharanthine-Mpro complex at HisA:164, ProA;168, GlnA;189, and ThrA:190.
 Conclusion: The findings of this study propose that these drugs are potentially inhibiting the SAR-CoV-2 virus by targeting the Mpro protein.
