Resistance to Mericitabine, a Nucleoside Analogue Inhibitor of HCV Rna-Dependent RNA Polymerase
8 Mar 2012
Abstract excerpt
Mericitabine (RG7128), an orally administered prodrug of PSI-6130, is the most clinically advanced nucleoside analogue inhibitor of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RdRp) of HCV. This review describes what has been learnt so far about the resistance profile of mericitabine. A serine to threonine substitution at position 282 (S282T) of the RdRp that reduces its replication capacity to approximately 15% of...
