1- <i>O</i> -Hexadecyloxypropyl Cidofovir (CMX001) Effectively Inhibits Polyomavirus BK Replication in Primary Human Renal Tubular Epithelial Cells
17 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
Antiviral drugs for treating polyomavirus BK (BKV) replication in polyomavirus-associated nephropathy or hemorrhagic cystitis are of considerable clinical interest. Unlike cidofovir, the lipid conjugate 1-O-hexadecyloxypropyl cidofovir (CMX001) is orally available and has not caused detectable nephrotoxicity in rodent models or human studies to date. Primary human renal proximal tubular epithelial cells were...
