COVID-19 Resurgence Post VV116 Vs Nirmatrelvir-ritonavir Therapy

JAMA Network

About The Study: In this randomized clinical trial of 345 patients with mild-to-moderate COVID-19, viral load rebound and symptom rebound were both common after a standard 5-day course of antiviral treatment with either VV116 or nirmatrelvir-ritonavir. Prolongation of treatment duration might be investigated to reduce COVID-19 rebound.
