Summary of Clinical Use Click here for help
Nelfinavir is used to treat HIV infection, usually in combination with other antiretroviral drugs. EMA marketing authorisation (granted in 1998) was later withdrawn. Nelfinavir has anti-cancer activity and radiosensitizing effects and has advanced to clinical trials for solid tumours and hematological malignancies. It is also being repositioned for COVID-19, having demonstrated antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 [1].
