RedHill Biopharma is actively discussing collaborations to advance its investigational drug opaganib for the treatment of Ebola virus disease (EVD), including potential inclusion in the WHO's SOLIDARITY CORE clinical trial platform. The company cites existing Phase 3 data from severe COVID-19 trials showing a 70.2% mortality reduction with opaganib as an add-on therapy, alongside preclinical USAMRIID-funded studies demonstrating opaganib's inhibition of EVD in human macrophages and increased survival in animal models.
