Oyagen, a biotechnology company, has been developing sangivamycin or OYA1, which showed efficacy against Ebola infections,[8] as a broad spectrum antiviral for COVID-19.[9][10] Tonix Pharmaceuticals licensed OYA1 from Oyagen in April 2021 to develop it for the treatment of COVID-19 and it is now called TNX-3500.[11][12][13] In July 2022, Tonix announced that it was terminating development of TNX-3500, an antiviral inhibitor of SARS-CoV-2, and the associated licence agreement with OyaGen, Inc. was expected to be terminated, effective September 20, 2022.[14]
