Therapeutic principles depend on these stages. At the first stage, when the virus accumulates, ethiotropic chemotherapeutic drugs suppressing virus reproduction are predominantly used. The article considers 7 major chemotherapeutic approaches aimed at specific targets in the replication of coronaviruses: viral RNA polymerase inhibitors, inhibitors of viral protease Mpro, inhibitors of proteolytic activation of viral protein S, which carries out the virus entry into the target cell, inhibitors of virus uncoating in the intracellular endosomes, exogenous interferon compounds, preparations of natural and recombinant virus neutralizing antibodies, as well as combinations of the above drugs. At the second stage, when the virus multiplication drops down and threatening pathological processes of excessive inflammation, acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary edema, hypoxia and threatening sepsis develop, it is reasonable to realize antipathogenetic approaches, such as extracorporeal blood oxygenation, detoxication, anti-inflammatory and antibacterial therapeutic drugs and measures.","PeriodicalId":220616,"journal":{"name":"Novejshie zarubezhnye i otechestvennye lekarstvennye preparaty: farmakoterapija, farmakodinamika, farmakokinetika (Newest Foreign and Domestic Preparations: Pharmacotherapy, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics)","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117159678","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A new class of drugs, PCSK9 inhibitors, whose activity is associated with a protein involved in the control of low density lipoprotein receptors, has recently appeared. In clinical practice, this group is represented by monoclonal antibody preparations evolocumab and alirocumab. PCSK9 inhibitors are promising drugs for use in combination lipid-lowering therapy, which so far, given the results of clinical studies, can be recommended in the third place after statins and ezetimibe. In clinical studies, it was shown that alirocoumab and evolocumab alone or in combination with statins and/or other lipid-lowering drugs significantly reduce cholesterol levels in low density lipoproteins – by an average of 60%, depending on the dose.","PeriodicalId":220616,"journal":{"name":"Novejshie zarubezhnye i otechestvennye lekarstvennye preparaty: farmakoterapija, farmakodinamika, farmakokinetika (Newest Foreign and Domestic Preparations: Pharmacotherapy, Pharmacodynamics, Pharmacokinetics)","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127540899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
