News | Latus Therapeutics
Latus Therapeutics is leading a joint research team of scientists from the University of Oxford and the University of Edinburgh.
The trial
aims to evaluate the effectiveness for the treatment of COVID-19 of
Nafamostat Mesilate (brand name: Futhan),
an existing medicine for other indications in Japan. Nichi-Iko Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd, Japan-based leading drug manufacturer,
has generously donated supplies of Nafamostat for the initial clinical evaluation.
This crucial research
will utilise an existing medicine that has previously been shown to prevent the virus from infecting human cells in the laboratory.
Unlike vaccine treatments, which will take time to develop, this drug could be used immediately to fight COVID-19, having safely been used in Japan for 35 years to treat pancreatitis.
Studies have shown that
the drug blocks virus entry into lung cells and prevents it from multiplying in the human body. In this way we hope it will reduce the severity of disease in infected individuals.
This study is being supported
by a grant from the medical research charity LifeArc as part of its activity to address the need for new therapies for COVID-19.
