Aviptadil isn't much of an antiviral, IMO. It's more of a hormone / immunomodulator, that works mainly by increasing lung surfactant (including some surfactant proteins with defensin like activity).

Showed in Vero and human lung cells that VIP/aviptadil only reduced viral load by ~40%, so there is no IC50 if the definition if 50% reduction of viral load.

They had very impressive EIND/EA data thus far, though, and pretty good safety.
