ABSTRACT
From the Executive

Summary:

Hundreds of therapeutics are in preclinical or clinical development for treating COVID-19 [coronavirus disease 2019] patients. But as of May 2020, so far none have demonstrated effectiveness sufficient to warrant approval for general use, although one antiviral drug (remdesivir) has shown sufficient impact in ongoing clinical trials to support an authorization for emergency use. This is a reflection of the complexity, time, costs, and uncertainties associated with developing therapeutics - a process that not only encompasses preclinical evaluation and clinical trials to demonstrate safety and effectiveness, but also manufacturing at pandemic scale, and sufficient payment to enable appropriate and effective access. [...] Policy attention has understandably focused on the development of vaccines as the path to recovery. But even with these unprecedented actions, the widespread availability of effective vaccines remains many months away, if not longer. To reduce the impact of the pandemic in the meantime, intensive effort is also needed to accelerate therapeutics development to help prevent infections, reduce their severity, and mitigate or prevent further outbreak waves.COVID-19 (Disease);Therapeutics;Public health
