    Snippet: Current data on the therapeutic effect of HIV protease inhibitors in patients with COVID-19 are far from comprehensive. This study demonstrated that DRV showed no in vitro antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 at clinically relevant concentrations. Furthermore, structural analyses using protease structures are consistent with these data. DRV binds to the active site of the HIV virus' dimeric aspartic protease (14) .

    Document: Current data on the therapeutic effect of HIV protease inhibitors in patients with COVID-19 are far from comprehensive. This study demonstrated that DRV showed no in vitro antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 at clinically relevant concentrations. Furthermore, structural analyses using protease structures are consistent with these data. DRV binds to the active site of the HIV virus' dimeric aspartic protease (14) . The crystal structure of this protease is well-elucidated and has been shown to have an extensive hydrogen-bonding network with DRV, allowing for the potent in vitro activity (EC 50 values = 1.2 to 8.5 nM) of this protease inhibitor against HIV (6-7).
