The finding, reported Monday by an international team in the journal Science, comes at a time when potential treatments have been overshadowed by the U.S. vaccination campaign, now trying to recover from a slower-than-expected start. Aplidin, already approved in Australia for treating multiple myeloma, has been developed as a potential COVID-19 treatment by the Spanish drug company PharMar.
