The findings showed patients that needed oxygen supplementation but not mechanical ventilators saw the largest benefit from the drug, according to Merdad Parsey, Gilead’s (ticker: GILD) chief medical officer.
“We are pleased that the findings from the NIAID trial of remdesivir in hospitalized patients with advanced COVID-19 have been published in a peer-reviewed medical journal,” Parsey said in a news release.
Still, Scripps Research Translational Institute director Eric Topoltold STAT News that though the drug is safe and effective, he didn’t see signs of benefits in the patients that began the study with the most severe cases, like those already needing ventilation. “We need to get something that works for these patients who have a high mortality rate,” Topol said.
In the news release, Parsey added that Gilead is looking forward to the start of combination studies of remdesivir to see if adding other drugs could make for a more effective treatment.
The Food and Drug Administration gave remdesivir emergency approval at the start of May after the NIAID said its randomized, controlled trial of the drug found it shortened the recovery time for Covid-19 patients.
