- Clinical Trial Results: Traws Pharma's ratutrelvir shows fewer adverse events and no viral rebounds in a 90-patient Phase 2 study compared to PAXLOVID®, indicating its potential advantages in treating COVID-19, especially for patients ineligible for PAXLOVID®.
- Efficacy Improvement: The 600mg daily dose of ratutrelvir over 10 days significantly shortens symptom resolution time and has not shown viral rebound events, potentially offering a more effective treatment option for acute COVID-19 patients and supporting its impact on long-term outcomes.
- New Influenza Prevention Approach: Traws Pharma's tivoxavir marboxil is predicted to provide 28-day protection against influenza, with the new compressed tablet formulation showing over 3X effective blood levels in prior studies, potentially offering an innovative prophylactic treatment for seasonal influenza.
- Future Research Plans: The company plans to conduct an influenza prophylaxis challenge study in June 2026, and if results are positive, will advance tivoxavir marboxil into registration studies, further expanding its application potential in the antiviral market.
