Brief Summary  
Remdesivir is a nucleotide analog which is being used in treatment of severe COVID-19. Remdesivir,
its active metabolite (GS-441524), and its vehicle - sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBECD) are all
renally eliminated. There is lack of data of pharmacokinetics of Remdesivir and its vehicle -
sulfobutylether-β-cyclodextrin (SBECD) in patients with kidney disease. The aim of this study is to
evaluate the pharmacokinetics of Remdesivir, GS-441524, and SBECD in adult patients with severe
covid19 and kidney disease. This will be a prospective, open label study involving patients with
severe covid19 with kidney disease admitted at KEM hospital. We intend to include 12 patients with
end stage kidney failure on maintenance hemodialysis, 12 patients with acute kidney injury, and 12
kidney transplant recipients. Thus, total 36 patients will be included in this study. Blood samples
(5ml venous blood) and urine samples (10ml) will be collected for pharmacokinetic study. If patient
is on hemodialysis then dialysate samples, pre and post dialysis samples will also be collected. These
samples will undergo viral inactivation at the department of microbiology, KEM hospital in biosafety
level -2 cabinet. They will then be transferred to IIT Bombay in conditioned cartridge for
pharmacokinetic studies. Results of the pharmacokinetic studies will be correlated with the drug
effects and adverse effects in the patient. Our results may support the safety of Remdesivir in
patients with kidney disease, which is not established till date.
