Combined in silico and in vitro approaches identified the antipsychotic drug lurasidone and the antiviral drug elbasvir as SARS-CoV2 and HCoV-OC43 inhibitors
RdRpol Small molecule In vitro In silico |
in silico; Huh 7-hACE2 cells | 4.10 | Inhibited SARS-CoV-2 infection in a high content microscopy assay with an EC50 of ca. 18 μM and high selectivity (CC50 of ca. 118). The drug also displayed efficacy in a viral yield reduction assay with an estimated EC50 of >1000 μM. Based on computational modelling, the antiviral activity stems from RNA-dependent RNA polymerase inhibition. |
