Evaluation of the efficacy and safety of Ganovo combined with ritonavir for patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Given no specific antiviral therapies for new coronavirus pneumonia approved yet and Ganovo, an oral Hepatitis C virus protease inhibitor, approved in China in June 2018 , this open, controlled trial will evaluate the efficacy and safety of Ganovo in hospitalized patients infected with SARS-CoV-2.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Aged 18-75 years old;
• Pneumonia patients with new coronavirus infection were confirmed to be positive by RT-PCR and clinical manifestations. The diagnosis standard refers to the diagnosis and treatment plan for pneumonia with new coronavirus infection (Current Trial Version);
• Patients with newly diagnosed respiratory system discomfort who have been hospitalized (the diagnosis time of respiratory system discomfort shall not exceed 7 days);
• Women and their partners who have no planned pregnancy for nearly half a year and are willing to take effective contraceptive measures within 30 days from the first administration of the study drug to the last administration;
• Agree not to participate in other clinical research within 30 days from the first administration of the study drug to the last administration;
• Patients who voluntarily sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

• The pneumonia patients with severe new coronavirus infection met one of the following conditions: respiratory distress, RR >= 30 times / min; or SaO2 / SpO2 <93% in resting state; or arterial partial pressure of oxygen (PaO2) / concentration of oxygen (FiO2) <300MMHG (1mmhg = 0.133kpa);
• Pneumonia patients with severe new coronavirus infection meet one of the following conditions: respiratory failure and need mechanical ventilation; or shock; or other organ failure combined with ICU monitoring treatment;
• Severe liver disease (such as child Pugh score >=C, AST > 5 times upper limit);
• Patients with contraindications specified in the instructions of ritonavir tablets;
• The pregnancy test of female subjects in the screening period was positive;
• The researchers judged that it was not suitable to participate in this clinical trial (for example, patients who may be transferred to another hospital during the study period; patients with multiple basic diseases, etc.).
