Products

Ratutrelvir (investigational oral Mpro inhibitor)

Investigational oral small-molecule inhibitor targeting the viral main protease (Mpro/3CL) being developed as a ritonavir‑independent treatment for COVID‑19/Long COVID; evaluated in Phase I for safety, tolerability, PK and PD.

Tivoxavir marboxil (investigational CEN inhibitor)

Investigational oral prodrug developed as a single‑dose treatment for seasonal and avian influenza; targets influenza cap‑dependent endonuclease and demonstrated safety, PK and protection in a rodent H5N1 challenge model in Phase I/preclinical data.

TRX01 (ratutrelvir)

An investigational high-potency MPro/3CL inhibitor developed for the treatment of COVID-19, designed to be administered without ritonavir and targeted for once-daily dosing over a 10-day regimen.

Ratutrelvir

An investigational oral small molecule antiviral targeting COVID-19 and Long COVID as a ritonavir-independent treatment.
