Biological target:
BIT-225 is a NCp7 zinc finger inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
The anti-HIV-1 activity of BIT225 was evaluated in vitro within MDDC (monocyte-derived DC) alone and in co-cultures with activated CD4(+) T cells to examine the effect of the drug on HIV-1 transfer. Antiviral activity was determined by measuring HIV-1 reverse transcriptase activity in the culture supernatant of BIT225 treated and DMSO control cultures. Despite expected donor–donor variation in the level of HIV-1 infection of the MDDC, the antiviral activity of BIT225 was evident in all three donors compared to the DMSO controls (DMSO v BIT225 at Day 14, n = 2, p = 0.12). When represented as a mean (±SE) percentage of viral inhibition compared to the DMSO controls, the anti-HIV-1 activity of BIT225 increased over time with inhibition at 28.0 % (±87.9), 55.3 % (±12.2), 67.3 % (±11.0), and 74.5 % (±0.6) for days 8, 10, 11/12 and 14 respectively. In the co-cultures, a single BIT225 treatment of the infected MDDC resulted in a reduction in the transfer of HIV-1 from the MDDC to the uninfected CD4+ T cells when the source of HIV-1 was from de novo viral production, cis transfer. The antiviral effect of BIT225 increased over time following MDDC infection, such that increased exposure to BIT225 resulted in a decreased virus burden within the MDDC, leading to a reduction in HIV-1 transfer to the more permissive CD4+ T cell (DMSO v BIT225 at Day 12, n = 2, p = 0.12). These findings suggest a potential role for BIT225 in reducing HIV-1 production and preventing viral dissemination.
