I will seek the abstract for verification of this report and more
details.

Used with canine distemper

QUOTE

The ferrets were infected with the canine distemper virus, which is
related to measles. When treated with the drug, dubbed ERDRP-0519,
the levels of the virus were significantly lowered and the subjects
survived the normally fatal virus. The ferrets eventually developed
an immunity to the distemper virus.
