RE:NCATS drug screening for effectiveness vs. Covid virus

Here's a link to their portal where you can look through the 225 pages of screening results or type a drug name/designation into the box at upper left to search for your drug of choice. I didn't find any results there for the drug that brings us to this board, but younger eyes with more time might find it hidden there.

Further to the above ...
The OpenData COVID-19 portal is a resource designed to rapidly and openly share SARS-CoV-2 screening data and assay information with the global health community, according to NIH-subdivision NCATS. Scientists there have been working to develop a number of SARS-CoV-2-related assays to measure over 10,000 compounds, including the NCATS Pharmaceutical Collection of nearly 3,000 approved drugs, for their activity against the virus.
