描述 | HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RT) is a multifunctional enzyme that is targeted by nucleoside analogs (NRTIs) and non-nucleoside RT inhibitors (NNRTIs). NNRTIs are allosteric inhibitors of RT, and constitute an integral part of several highly active antiretroviral therapy regimens. Under selective pressure, HIV-1 acquires resistance against NNRTIs primarily by selecting mutations around the NNRTI pocket[2]. NNRTIs interact with HIV-1 RT by binding to a single site on the p66 subunit of the p66/p51 heterodimeric enzyme, termed the NNRTI-binding pocket (NNRTI-BP). This binding interaction results in both short-range and long-range distortions of RT structure[3]. NNRTIs are extensively metabolized in the liver through cytochrome P450, leading to pharmacokinetic interactions with compounds utilizing the same metabolic pathway, particularly PIs, whose plasma levels are altered in the presence of NNRTIs. NNRTIs are drugs with a low genetic barrier, i.e. a single mutation in RT genoma induces a high-level of phenotypic resistance, preventing the use of NNRTIs as monotherapy[4].Combinations of two NNRTIs have shown additive or synergistic inhibitory effects on the HIV-1 reverse transcriptase activity and the viral replication of HIV-1 in vitro, although antagonistic effects have also been described. When nevirapine and efavirenz were administered in combination, the exposure to efavirenz was decreased due to induction of metabolism by nevirapine. When compared with single NNRTI regimens, dual NNRTI regimens showed similar but not superior results with regard to virological and immunological success in treatment-naive and pretreated HIV-1-infected patients[5].Elsulfavirine (Elpida®) is a new-generation non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) being developed by Viriom for the treatment and prevention of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections. It is the prodrug of the active compound VM-1500A, a small molecule selective NNRTI, which prevents HIV replication[6]. |
