In this report, ribavirin was shown to inhibit SARS-CoV replication in five different cell types of animal or human origin at therapeutically achievable concentrations. Since clinical anti-SARS-CoV activity of type I interferons or ribavirin is limited, we investigated the combination of IFN-β and ribavirin. Determination of the virus yield indicated highly synergistic anti-SARS-CoV action of the combination suggesting the consideration of ribavirin plus IFN-β for the treatment of SARS.</p>

<body><p id="para.0010">From the end of 2002 a new form of non-typical pneumonia, the severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), emerged from the Guangdong province in southern China, spread throughout the world, infected 8420 people in 29 countries, and resulted in more than 900 deaths (<ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://www.who.int/csr/sars">http://www.who.int/csr/sars</ext-link>

<p id="para.0015">Corticosteroids, antibiotics, and antiviral agents were empirically used for the treatment of SARS. The rapid emergence of the epidemic did not permit the conduction of controlled studies documenting the efficacy of therapies. Ribavirin (1-β-<sc>d</sc>

<p id="para.0095">Ribavirin was initially found not to inhibit SARS-CoV replication at concentrations up to 1000 μg/ml <xref rid="bib3" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>
, <xref rid="bib4" ref-type="bibr">[4]</xref>
. These results had been obtained in Vero cells (or its E6 subclone), in which ribavirin is known to be of low antiviral activity, most probably because of insufficient phosphorylation to its active triphosphorylated form. More recent studies showed that ribavirin inhibits SARS-CoV replication in fRHK-4 cells at concentrations of about 50 μg/ml <xref rid="bib5" ref-type="bibr">[5]</xref>
, <xref rid="bib6" ref-type="bibr">[6]</xref>
. These findings suggest that multiple cell culture systems should be used to evaluate the activity of antiviral agents against emerging viruses such as SARS-CoV.</p>
<p id="para.0100">In the present study, the effects of ribavirin on SARS-CoV replication were systematically investigated in a panel of SARS-CoV permissive cell lines. Vero cells, human colon carcinoma cell lines Caco2 and CL14, and pig kidney cell line PK-15 had already been described to be permissive to SARS-CoV infection by us and by others <xref rid="bib3" ref-type="bibr">[3]</xref>
, <xref rid="bib8" ref-type="bibr">[8]</xref>
, <xref rid="bib14" ref-type="bibr">[14]</xref>
. African green monkey kidney cell line MA-104 and primary epithelial human kidney (HPEK) cells were demonstrated to be permissive to SARS-CoV replication in this report. HPEK cells represent the first normal diploid cell type of human origin permissive to SARS-CoV infection. Ribavirin inhibited SARS-CoV replication in all newly tested cell lines at concentrations at least 100-fold lower when compared with Vero cells.</p>
<p id="para.0105">The clinical value of ribavirin for the treatment of SARS patients is regarded with scepticism. We observed about 90% viral replication inhibition at concentrations up to 24 μg/ml ribavirin which is at reasonable therapeutical plasma levels after an intravenous dose of 1000 mg ribavirin <xref rid="bib2" ref-type="bibr">[2]</xref>
. This may be insufficient to improve clinical symptoms. In concordance, randomised clinical trials showed low dose (400–600 mg/day) ribavirin to be ineffective <xref rid="bib15" ref-type="bibr">[15]</xref>
. On the other hand, the most recently published study reported that ribavirin reduced the viral load in 5 of the 8 patients <xref rid="bib16" ref-type="bibr">[16]</xref>
. Moreover, this study suggested that the peak inflammatory cytokine (IL-6 and IL-8) levels concurred with or after the peak viral load and preceded or concurred with the maximum pulmonary infiltrates. Thus, it is probable that viral replication leads to the activation of proinflammatory cytokines that, together with other factors, contribute to disease progression. These clinical findings together with the observation of antiviral activity in different SARS-CoV-infected cell lines encourage the testing of treatment strategies using ribavirin in combination with other antiviral agents such as IFNs to increase inhibitory effects on virus replication and subsequently minimised immunopathological damages.</p>
<p id="para.0110">Type I IFNs had been shown to inhibit SARS-CoV replication in vitro most effectively in cells that had been pre-treated before virus inoculation <xref rid="bib7" ref-type="bibr">[7]</xref>
. A pilot clinical report demonstrated the effectiveness of synthetic recombinant IFN-α for the treatment of SARS patients <xref rid="bib10" ref-type="bibr">[10]</xref>
. Overall, these findings suggest that only high doses of IFNs exhibit anti-SARS effects and are mainly effective for prophylaxis during SARS epidemics.</p>
<p id="para.0115">To reduce the drug concentrations needed for SARS-CoV inhibition, the anti-SARS-CoV activity of the combination of ribavirin with type I interferon was tested previously. Tan et al. <xref rid="bib9" ref-type="bibr">[9]</xref>
reported that ribavirin in combination with IFN-β did not demonstrate observable synergistic effects whereas Chen et al. <xref rid="bib5" ref-type="bibr">[5]</xref>
showed highly synergistic activity. However, both studies reported solely on CPE formation in Vero cells. Our results demonstrate that both drugs act highly synergistically in combination on formation of CPE as well as on production of infectious virus titres in two human cell lines. Since antiviral drugs were added after virus adsorption, the results show that IFN-β in combination with ribavirin may be highly effective not only as prophylactic agent but also for the treatment of already infected SARS patients.</p>
<p id="para.0120">In conclusion, the combination of ribavirin with IFN-β inhibits SARS-CoV replication in drastically reduced concentrations compared to either single treatment. This may enable the achievement of therapeutic plasma levels sufficient to suppress SARS-CoV replication during the early phase of SARS, and thus to prevent subsequent immunopathological damages. Moreover, efficient early inhibition of virus replication may reduce virus shedding and consequently, the risk of transmission.</p>
