Comment: Obeldesivir (GS-5245) is an orally bioavailable investigational nucleoside (ATP analogue) antiviral compound [4]. It is an ester prodrug of the predominant remdesivir metabolite GS-441524 [2]. As an inhibitor of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRP) it is likely to have activity against a range of filoviruses, paramyxoviruses, and coronaviruses, including SARS-CoV-2. Postexposure efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 in humans, and Marburg virus and Ebola virus infections (in nonhuman primates) has been reported [1-3,5].
