Biochem/physiol Actions

BAY41-4109 is a heteroaryldihydropyrimidine (HAP)-based capsid assembly modulator (CAM) that destabilizes hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid assembly. BAY41-4109 inhibits HBV replication in HepG2.2.15 cultures with little host cytotoxicity (IC50 = 53 nM vs. CC50 = 7 μM in 8 days). Despite its relatively short half-life in vivo (plasma t1/2 = 5 h/dog, 2 h/rat, ≤1 h/mouse), BAY41-4109 shows greater antiviral efficacy than 3TC in Tg [HBV1.3 fsX-3′5′] mice (HBV DNA reduction = 52%/BAY vs. 36%/3TC in liver via 30 mg/kg b.i.d. p.o.; 70% vs. 30% in plasma with 15 mg BAY/kg or 30 mg/kg 3TC b.i.d. p.o., respectively) with good oral availability (F/tmax =31%/mouse, 58%/rat & dog).

BAY 41-4109 is a member of a class of heteroaryl-pyrimidines that was recently identified as potent inhibitors of human hepatitis B virus (HBV) replication. We have investigated the antiviral activity of BAY 41-4109 (methyl (R)-4-(2-chloro-4-fluorophenyl)-2-(3,5-difluoro-2-pyridinyl)-6-methyl-1,4-dihydro-pyrimidine-5-carboxylate) in HBV-transgenic mice (Tg [HBV1.3

The HBV core protein represents an attractive target for new antiviral therapies due to its multiple functions within the viral life-cycle. Here, we report the antiviral activity of the capsid assembly modulator (CAM) BAY41-4109 and two nucleos(t)ide analogues (NAs) on

Current treatments for HBV chronic carriers using interferon alpha or nucleoside analogues are not effective in all patients and may induce the emergence of HBV resistant strains. Bay 41-4109, a member of the heteroaryldihydropyrimidine family, inhibits HBV replication by destabilizing

The authors investigate the effects and mechanisms of the anti-hepatitis B virus (HBV) agent Bay 41-4109. HepG2.2.15 cells were used to investigate the antiviral effects of Bay 41-4109 by using real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR), western blotting, and immunofluorescence. The

Here we report the effect of a heteroaryldihydropyrimidine (HAP) antiviral compound, BAY 41-4109, on Hepatitis B virus (HBV) capsid assembly and on preformed HBV capsids. The HBV capsid is an icosahedral complex of 120 capsid protein dimers. BAY41-4109 inhibits virus
