Fomivirsen - 21 base phosphothioate oligonucleotide




Targets RNA encoding for IE2 (regulatory protein of CMV)

Fomivirsen Use

CMV retinitis



Fomivirsen Side Effects

Iritis




Vitritis




Cataract




Increased Ocular Pressure

Anti-Influenza Drugs




Prevention of Uncoating

Amantadine




Ramantadine




They block M2 transporter protein on viral membrane

Amantadine & Ramantadine Use

Influenza Virus A

Amantadine & Ramantadine Adverse Effects

Neurological Symptoms: light-headedness, insomnia, loss of appetite and nausea




Loss of concentration

Anti-Influenza Drugs




Prevention of Virus Release

Oseltamivir




Zanamivir




These are analogs of sialic acid and they inhibit Neuraminidase

Oseltamivir & Zanamivir Side Effects

Oseltamivir: Abdominal pain




Zanamivir: Bronchospasm

Anti-HIV Drugs

Inhibitors of Viral Binding and Fusion




Nucleoside/ Nucleotide RT Inhibitors




Non-Nucleoside/nucleotide RT Inhibitors




Viral Integrase Inhibitors




Viral Protease Inhibitors

Anti-HIV Drugs




Inhibitors of Viral Binding & Fusion

Maraviroc: Inhibits CCR5 and its binding to gp120




Enfuvirtide: Inhibits Fusion between gp41 and CD4

Maraviroc Use

CCR5 tropic HIV strains

Maraviroc Side Effects

None

Maraviroc Resistance

Shift from CCR5 to CXCR4




Mutation in gp120, which allows binding of virus even if Maraviroc is present

Enfuvirtide Use

HIV-1

Enfuvirtide Resistance

Mutation of binding site for drug on gp41

Enfuvirtide Side Effects

At site of injection: erythema, induration & pain

Anti-HIV Drugs




Nucleoside/Nucleotide RT Inhibitors

Zidovuline; synthetic thymidine analog




Stavudine




Zalcitabine




Lamivudine

NRTI Use

HIV-1 and HIV-2




Active Inhibitors of viral RT.




NRTIs are activated generally by phosphorylation to the triphosphate form by cellular enzymes.




It then competes with cellular triphosphates, which are substrates for proviral DNA by viral RT.

NRTI Side Effects

Anemia




Granulocytopenia




Myopathy




Pancreatitis




Peripheral neuropathy

Zidovuline Side Effects

Fatigue


Malaise


Myalgia


Anorexia


Headache


Insomnia


Bone Marrow Suppression

Zidovuline Resistance

Mutations in RT: Thymidine Analogue Mutations (TAMs)

Anti-HIV Drugs




Non-Nucleoside/Nucleotide RT Inhibitors

Efavirenz; binds to non-essential site distant from the enzyme catalytic site




Nevirapine


Delaviridine


Etravirine




Induce conformational change, which reduces the activity of the enzyme RT.

NNRTI Use

HIV-1

NNRTI Side Effects

Rashes

Anti- HIV Drugs




Integrase Inhibitors

Raltegravir




Inhibits integrase, which integrates HIV cDNA into cellular DNA.




This blocks replication of HIV virus.

Raltegravir Side Effects

Headache


Nausea


Asthenia


Fatigue

Anti-HIV Drugs




Protease Inhibitors

Saquinavir




Inhibit action of viral aspartyl- protease.




Virus cannot assembly

Protease Inhibitor Side Effects

Nausea


Vomiting


Diarrhea
