    After listening to two reports by Academician Jiang Jiandong, one was held at the "China Pharmacy Development Conference" held by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences on February 26-27; On March 17th, on "Exploring the Road to New Drugs in China by Absorbing the Thought of System Theory"
    .

    In the two reports, Academician Jiang Jiandong, President of the Institute of Materia Medica, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, focused on the research and development and progress of Azvudine in the treatment of new crown indications, saying that Azvudine is very effective in treating both mild and severe new crowns
    .

    Promising anti-coronavirus drug

    Promising anti-coronavirus drug

    Academician Jiang Jiandong introduced that the Azvudine treatment team for the new crown is chaired by Real Biology, and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences is responsible for pharmacology, efficacy and pharmacokinetic research.
    Among them, Academician Wang Chen, president of the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, is responsible for clinical research, Beijing Ditan Hospital, Wuhan More than 10 hospitals including Zhongnan Hospital participated
    .

    In the report, Academician Jiang Jiandong said that in February 2020, Azvudine was found to be able to resist the new coronavirus, and it was approved for Phase III clinical trials in April 2020.
    Now the Phase III clinical trials are over.
    Look, it's more optimistic
    .

    The clinical effect of azvudine is as follows.
    Generally, the nucleic acid turns negative after 3-4 days of oral administration
    .


    About 300 to 400 cases were done in the second phase of clinical trials, and more than 800 cases were done in the third phase of clinical trials


    And it doesn't matter whether the patient has taken any medicine before, or has been taking medicine for a while, he can still use azvudine
    .


    Azvudine is not like some drugs (referring to Pfizer's Paxlovid), which need to be taken early in the infection of new coronary pneumonia, it does not need


    Azvudine is phosphorylated three times in the thymus

    Azvudine is phosphorylated three times in the thymus

    At the cellular level, Azvudine’s antiviral strength is actually not as strong as Remdesivir, four or five times worse than Remdesivir, but the clinical effect is much better than Remdesivir, and it can be taken orally 5mg, Remdesivir Sivir injection is 100mg
    .

    This brings us to the question that there must be a factor at play that we don't understand
    .


    This question is the starting point for us to start this project


    For example, Remdesivir adds phosphoric acid on it, but Azvudine does not add phosphoric acid
    .


    Later, we found that azvudine can be distributed to various organs in the body and complete three phosphorylation in the thymus


    (This picture is a comparison of Remdesivir and Azvudine
    .


    Remdesivir has stronger antiviral ability than Azvudine in vitro)

    The thymus gland is very important
    .


    At the age of 15, the thymus is the largest, and after the age of 45, the thymus shrinks to the size of childhood


    The answer we found is: Azvudine completes three phosphorylations in the thymus, clears the virus in the thymus, protects the immune system, and the immune system also has an antiviral effect
    .

    So, I think this medicine is a dual treatment
    .


    The first is anti-virus, and its anti-virus is mainly concentrated in the thymus


    (Other data we have seen show that: after azvudine enters the human body, the distribution is relatively special, and the distribution on the thymus is the largest
    .


    Azvudine enters the body and does not stay in the blood for a long time.


    Azvudine has the problem of treating the symptoms and the root, anti-virus is the “symbol”, and thymus protection is equivalent to the “root”
    .

    Concord's A+B Plan

    Concord's A+B Plan

    In the report, Academician Jiang Jiandong said that for the treatment of the new crown, the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences proposed the A+B plan, that is, the combination of azvudine and carrimycin, which they originally called the "Concord Plan"
    .

    Clindamycin is an approved drug that is currently undergoing Phase III clinical trials for the treatment of COVID-19 in the United States, and 26 patients are yet to be enrolled
    .

    Carrimycin is an antibacterial, mycoplasma, and chlamydia drug.
    This time, it was found that it can resist the new crown.
    Its mechanism is different from that of Azvudine, so we hope to have double insurance
    .

    Fever and cough are not necessarily caused by coronavirus, but other things, such as some interstitial pneumonia and mycoplasma, are very likely
    .


    With the addition of canrimycin, other infections can be cleared and a double insurance policy can be achieved
    .
    We also submitted this plan to the National Health Commission and the Ministry of Science and Technology, hoping that this plan can play a more effective role in the future
    .

    Academician Jiang Jiandong said that there are many antiviral drugs now, such as Remdesivir, which has a good antiviral effect, but in the end, the new crown virus was not controlled
    .
    So, we hope that the drug Azvudine can be different
    .

    At present, part A of our plan has been completed, but the drug B has not been completed
    .
    After New Year's Day, Azivudin has been sent to foreign diplomatic envoys, officials stationed in Hong Kong, etc.
    for trial use, with more than 10,000 copies.
    So far, there is no report that contradicts the result
    .

    Regarding the safety of azvudine, we have obtained additional information: in the AIDS indication, the 3mg dose has been taken for 48 weeks, and there has been no death case.
    The new crown indication is the dose of 5mg, and the dose has been increased, but still There were no serious side effects, ART increased and AST increased, up to 3 times (more than 100 levels), but after stopping the drug, it was normal, and the safety was good
