Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/245089
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a composition for treatment of COVID-19, comprising taurodeoxycholic acid (TDCA) or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. In particular, the use of a pharmaceutically acceptable salt of TDCA was found to have an effect of treating clinical symptoms caused by a SARS-CoV-2 infection and early full recovery through alleviating inflammation and suppressing inflammatory cytokines. Thus, TDCA or a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof may be used as an active ingredient of a composition for preventing or treating lower respiratory tract infections including COVID-19.
