[The efficacy of the emergency prophylactic and therapeutic actions of immunomodulators in experimental filovirus infections].
The study of the preventive and therapeutic action of some immunomodulators (ridostin, reaferon and polyribonate) used alone and in combinations was conducted on laboratory animals infected aerogenically by Marburg or Ebola virus. It was found that special preventive intranasal and intramuscular administration of ridostin provided protection of the animals infected by Marburg virus (p = 0.1) and an increase in their mean lifespan by 2.4 days (p = 0.15). In the Ebola infection combined administration of ridostin and reaferon caused an essential increase in the mean lifespan of the animals by 2.9 days (p = 0.04). None of the tested drugs had any significant positive effect when used in various combinations according to the treatment schemes in Marburg and Ebola infections in guinea pigs.
