ABSTRACT Ribavirin antagonizes the in vitro anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) activity of the pyrimidine nucleoside analogue 2′-C-methylcytidine, the active component of the experimental anti-HCV drug valopicitabine. In contrast, the combination of ribavirin with either the purine nucleoside analogue 2′-C-methyladenosine or the HCV protease inhibitor VX-950 resulted in an additive antiviral activity. These findings may have implications when planning clinical studies with valopicitabine.

ABSTRACT An investigational nucleoside analogue drug, viramidine, has recently emerged as a potentially safer alternative to ribavirin for the treatment of hepatitis C viral infection. We have reported that viramidine mainly functions as a prodrug of ribavirin that is enriched in the liver. This in vitro study further explores viramidine's activity against nucleoside phosphorylase, a host enzyme that is responsible for phosphorolysis of ribavirin in vivo. Our experiments show that viramidine inhibits ribavirin phosphorolysis with a Ki of 2.5 μM. This result suggests that viramidine may act through a dual-action mechanism by serving as a prodrug of ribavirin and concomitantly as an inhibitor for nucleoside phosphorylase catabolism of ribavirin.
