For each compound, the antiviral activity in Vero E6, Huh7.5, Calu-1, or A549 cells is indicated by 50% effective concentration (EC50) values (micromolar). These values were inferred from concentration-response curves based on 6 replicates (GS-6620) or 3 replicates (all other compounds). All compounds were tested at noncytotoxic concentrations as described in Materials and Methods. “>50” or “>25” indicates that the maximum concentration tested was 50 or 25 μM and that no viral inhibition reaching 50% was observed at this concentration. ND, not done.
