Title: Lopinavir-ritonavir is not an effective inhibitor of the main protease activity of SARS-CoV-2 in vitro Cord-id: ubjczycf Document date: 2020_9_16

Snippet: COVID-19 has caused over 900,000 deaths worldwide as of September 2020, and effective medicines are urgently needed. Lopinavir was identified as an inhibitor of the HIV protease, and a lopinavir-ritonavir combination therapy was reported to be beneficial for the treatment of SARS and MERS. However, recent clinical tests could not prove that lopinavir-ritonavir therapy was an effective treatment for COVID-19. In this report, we examined the effect of lopinavir and ritonavir to the activity of the
Document: COVID-19 has caused over 900,000 deaths worldwide as of September 2020, and effective medicines are urgently needed. Lopinavir was identified as an inhibitor of the HIV protease, and a lopinavir-ritonavir combination therapy was reported to be beneficial for the treatment of SARS and MERS. However, recent clinical tests could not prove that lopinavir-ritonavir therapy was an effective treatment for COVID-19. In this report, we examined the effect of lopinavir and ritonavir to the activity of the purified main protease (Mpro) protein of SARS- CoV-2, the causative virus of COVID-19. Unexpectedly, lopinavir and ritonavir did not inhibit Mpro activity. These results will aid the drug candidate selection for ongoing and future COVID-19 clinical trials.
