Triazavirin
Triazavirin (TZV) is a broad-spectrum antiviral drug developed in Russia through a joint effort of Ural Federal University, Russian Academy of Sciences, Ural Center for Biopharma Technologies and Medsintez Pharmaceutical. It has a novel triazolotriazine core, which represents a new structural class of non-nucleoside antiviral drugs.[1] It was originally developed as a potential treatment for pandemic influenza strains such as H5N1, and most of the testing that has been done has focused on its anti-influenza activity.[2][3][4] However triazavirin has also been found to have antiviral activity against a number of other viruses including TBEV,[5] and is also being investigated for potential application against Lassa fever and Ebola virus disease.[6][7][8][9][10]
