Abstract
BackgroundGS-441524 has been successfully used to treat feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) in cats. However, the use of its prodrug, remdesivir, in combination with a PO GS-441524 containing product for the treatment of FIP has not yet been described. ObjectivesDescribe treatment protocols, response to treatment and outcomes in cats with FIP treated with a combination of PO GS-441524 and injectable remdesivir. AnimalsThirty-two client-owned cats diagnosed with effusive or non-effusive FIP including those with ocular and neurological involvement. MethodsCats diagnosed with FIP at a single university hospital between August 2021 and July 2022 were included. Variables were recorded from time of diagnosis, and subsequent follow-up information was obtained from the records of referring veterinarians. All surviving cats were observed for the entire 12-week treatment period. ResultsCats received treatment with different combinations of IV remdesivir, SC remdesivir, and PO GS-441524 at a median (range) dosage of 15 (10-20) mg/kg. Clinical response to treatment was observed in 28 of 32 cats (87.5%) in a median (range) of 2 (1-5) days. Twenty-six of 32 cats (81.3%) were alive and in clinical and biochemical remission at the end of the 12-week treatment period. Six of 32 cats (18.8%) died or were euthanized during treatment with 4 of the 6 cats (66%) dying within 3 days of starting treatment. ConclusionsWe describe the effective use of injectable remdesivir and PO GS-441524 for the treatment of FIP in cats. Success occurred using different treatment protocols and with different presentations of FIP including cats with ocular and neurological involvement.
