Disease relevance of 1-[(3R,4R,5R)-3,4-dihydroxy-5-methylol-tetrahydrofuran-2-yl]-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamidine

  • For example, potent and HDV-specific inhibition, in the absence of detected host toxicity, could be obtained with ribavirin, mycophenolic acid, and viramidine [1].
  • An investigational nucleoside analogue drug, viramidine, has recently emerged as a potentially safer alternative to ribavirin for the treatment of hepatitis C viral infection [2].
  • Ribamidine (1-beta-D-ribofuranosyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-carboxamidine) was inhibitory in rhesus monkey kidney (LLC-MK2 derivative) cells to Adames and Balliet strains of Punta Toro virus (PTV), a Phlebovirus related to Rift Valley fever and sandfly fever viruses [3].
  • In the 1-month study in rats, viramidine or ribavirin dosing at 120 mg/kg/day reduced Hgb concentrations (12-16% and 13-20% compared to controls, respectively) and caused slight erythroid hyperplasia in the bone marrow [4].
  • In September 2000, phase I trials began in Europe. In December 2001, the company filed a US IND for the clinical development of viramidine as part of a combination therapy with interferon-afor the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection [435007], [441613]; a phase I trial was initiated in the US in late March 2002 [435598] [5].
