Favipiravir for Treatment of Outpatients With Asymptomatic or Uncomplicated Coronavirus Disease 2019: A Double-Blind, Randomized, Placebo-Controlled, Phase 2 Trial

Marisa Holubar et al.

Summary: This study found that commonly used doses of favipiravir did not show significant effectiveness in treating uncomplicated COVID-19 in outpatient settings. Further research is needed to determine if higher doses of favipiravir are effective and safe for patients with COVID-19.

Durability of Humoral Responses after the Second Dose of mRNA BNT162b2 Vaccine in Residents of a Long Term Care Facility

Alessia Lai et al.

Summary: Residents of long-term care facilities have been severely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. This study assessed the quantity and durability of antibody responses to the BNT162b2 vaccine. The results showed that antibody levels decreased over time, but positive nucleocapsid serology was associated with a reduced risk of suboptimal response. Furthermore, diabetes was associated with an increased risk of impaired immune response.

Impact of circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants on mRNA vaccine-induced immunity

Carolina Lucas et al.

Summary: This study found that individuals previously infected with the virus had higher antibody titres post-vaccination compared to those who were uninfected, but both groups reached comparable levels of neutralization responses to the ancestral strain after the second vaccine dose. Comprehensive analysis of 16 locally circulating SARS-CoV-2 variants revealed varying degrees of reduction in neutralization capacity associated with specific mutations in the spike gene, suggesting vaccine boosters as a relevant future strategy to counteract the impact of emerging variants on antibody neutralizing activity.

Resistance of SARS-CoV-2 variants to neutralization by monoclonal and serum-derived polyclonal antibodies

Rita E. Chen et al.

Summary: The study analyzed antibody neutralization activity against a panel of authentic isolates and chimeric SARS-CoV-2 variants, showing significantly reduced neutralizing activity against the B.1.351 variant first identified in South Africa. Antibodies targeting the receptor-binding domain and N-terminal domain, monoclonal antibodies, convalescent sera, and mRNA vaccine-induced immune sera exhibited decreased inhibitory activity against viruses with an E484K spike mutation, suggesting a need for updated monoclonal antibodies or vaccine adjustments to prevent loss of protection against emerging variants.

Age-Dependent Reduction in Neutralization against Alpha and Beta Variants of BNT162b2 SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine-Induced Immunity

Hitoshi Kawasuji et al.

Summary: The study shows that there is a decline in antibody levels and neutralizing activity against variant viruses induced by the BNT162b2 vaccine with increasing age, while the neutralizing activity against the wild-type virus remains stable. This suggests a potential weakness of mRNA vaccines in providing protection against viral variants, particularly in older age groups.

Favipiravir for the treatment of patients with COVID-19: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Toshie Manabe et al.

Summary: The study suggests that favipiravir shows promising efficacy in treating patients with COVID-19, inducing viral clearance within 7 days and contributing to clinical improvement within 14 days. The drug is especially effective for patients with mild-to-moderate illness. However, additional well-designed studies are needed to determine the optimal dosage and duration of treatment.

The biological and clinical significance of emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants

Kaiming Tao et al.

Summary: The emergence of multiple SARS-CoV-2 variants has significant impacts on the epidemiological and clinical aspects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including increased virus transmission rates, heightened risk of reinfection, and reduced effectiveness of neutralizing antibodies and vaccines. These variants have introduced new challenges to COVID-19 research, necessitating additional avenues of laboratory, epidemiological, and clinical studies.

Favipiravir Versus Arbidol for Clinical Recovery Rate in Moderate and Severe Adult COVID-19 Patients: A Prospective, Multicenter, Open-Label, Randomized Controlled Clinical Trial

Chang Chen et al.

Summary: This study compared the efficacy and safety of favipiravir and umifenovir (Arbidol) in treating COVID-19 patients. Although favipiravir showed a shorter duration for relief of fever and cough, it did not significantly improve the clinical recovery rate at day 7 compared to Arbidol. The adverse effects associated with favipiravir were mild and manageable.

Cellular and humoral immunogenicity of a SARS-CoV-2 mRNA vaccine in patients on haemodialysis

Monika Strengert et al.

Summary: Patients on maintenance haemodialysis show detectable but variable cellular and humoral immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 and variants of concern after receiving the BNT162b2 vaccine. While encouraging, the diminished virus neutralization and interferon gamma responses in the face of emerging variants may indicate a need for re-vaccination using modified vaccines in this at-risk population.
