This disclosure features compounds and compositions that are useful in methods of treating coronavirus infections (e.g., useful in methods of treating COVID-19) in a subject in need thereof. The methods include administering to the subject niclosamide compounds (or pharmaceutically acceptable salts and/or co-crystals thereof, e.g., niclosamide). In some embodiments, the niclosamide compounds have one or more properties that include, but are not limited to: a particular purity (e.g., a chemical purity of greater than about 99.0%) or a particular particle size (e.g., a particular particle size distribution and/or a particular particle size range and/or a specific surface area range). In an aspect, the niclosamide compounds described herein (e.g., niclosamide) can form part of compositions, dosage forms (e.g., unit dosage forms), and the like, which are suitable for respiratory administration (e.g., via inhalation and/or intranasally). In another aspect, the niclosamide compounds described herein (e.g., niclosamide) can form part of compositions, dosage forms (e.g., unit dosage forms), and the like, which are suitable for administration to the GI tract (e.g., orally or rectally such as via enema)).
本公开的化合物和组合物适用于治疗有需要的受试者的冠状病毒感染的方法(例如,适用于治疗COVID-19的方法)。这些方法包括向受试者施用烟酰胺化合物(或其药学上可接受的盐和/或共晶体,例如烟酰胺)。在一些实施方案中,烟酰胺化合物具有一种或多种特性,包括但不限于:特定的纯度(例如化学纯度大于约99.0%)或特定的粒度(例如特定的粒度分布和/或特定的粒度范围和/或比表面积范围)。在一个方面,本文所述的烟酰胺化合物(如烟酰胺)可以构成组合物、剂型(如单位剂型)等的一部分,适合呼吸道给药(如通过吸入和/或鼻内给药)。在另一方面,本文所述的烟酰胺化合物(如烟酰胺)可构成组合物、剂型(如单位剂型)等的一部分,适合于消化道给药(如口服或直肠给药,如通过灌肠))。
