Mechanism of Action

Targets/IC₅₀/Ki	SARS-CoV-2 ^[1] MERS-CoV ^[1] SARS-CoV ^[1]
In vitro	Molnupiravir (EIDD-2801) is an orally bioavailable NHC-prodrug. This compound is potently antiviral against SARS-CoV-2, MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV in primary human epithelial cell cultures without cytotoxicity. It is effective against remdesivir (RDV)-resistant virus and multiple distinct zoonotic CoV. Its antiviral activity is associated with increased viral mutation rates.^[1]
In vivo	Molnupiravir (EIDD-2801) is efficiently hydrolyzed in vivo after absorption, resulting in detection of only free NHC in plasma.^[2] This compound is potently antiviral against SARS-CoV in vivo but the degree of clinical benefit is dependent on the time of initiation post-infection. It robustly reduces MERS-CoV infectious titers, viral RNA, and pathogenesis under both prophylactic and early therapeutic conditions.^[1]
