Ibuzatrelvir (development code PF-07817883) is an experimental antiviral drug being developed by Pfizer for the treatment of COVID-19.[1] It is a second-generation improvement over nirmatrelvir which has a similar chemical structure.[2] One of the disadvantages of nirmatrelvir is that it has low metabolic stability and must be given in combination with ritonavir (as Paxlovid) to limit its metabolic degradation in the body.[3] Ibuzatrelvir incorporates modifications to the chemical structure of nirmatrelvir that give it enhanced oral bioavailability, so it does not require coadministration with ritonavir.[3]
