Ascletis on March 24 trumpeted successful results from a Chinese clinical trial, the first such study of Ganovo in patients with COVID-19, assessing Ganovo compared with ritonavir (NCT04291729). The company stated that after 4- to 12-day treatment of Ganovo combined with ritonavir, all 11 patients with moderate COVID-19 — two treatment-naïve, nine treatment-experienced — were discharged from the hospital. The first negative RT-PCR test occurred at a median of 2 days, with occurrences ranging from 1 to 8 days, and absorption in CT scans occurred at a median 3 days, ranging from 2 to 4 days. The trial was conducted at The Ninth Hospital of Nanchang. Ascletis announced the discharge of the study’s first three patients on February 26.
