RESUMO

1263W94 [maribavir; 5,6-dichloro-2-(isopropylamino)-1,β-l-ribofuranosyl-1-H-benzimidazole] is a novel benzimidazole compound for treatment of human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection and disease, with potent in vitro activity against HCMV and good oral bioavailability. A phase I study was conducted to determine the pharmacokinetics (PK), anti-HCMV activity, and safety of 1263W94 administered as multiple oral doses to human immunodeficiency virus type 1-infected adult male subjects with asymptomatic HCMV shedding. Subjects received one of six dosage regimens (100, 200, or 400 mg three times a day, or 600, 900, or 1,200 mg twice a day) or a placebo for 28 days. 1263W94 demonstrated linear PK, with steady-state plasma 1263W94 profiles predictable based on single-dose data. 1263W94 was rapidly absorbed following oral dosing, and values for the maximum concentration of the drug in plasma and the area under the concentration-time curve increased in proportion to the dose. 1263W94 demonstrated in vivo anti-HCMV activity in semen at all of the dosage regimens tested, with mean reductions in semen HCMV titers of 2.9 to 3.7 log10 PFU/ml among the four regimens evaluated for anti-HCMV activity. 1263W94 was generally well tolerated; taste disturbance was the most frequently reported adverse event over the 28-day dosing period.
