Description:

WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Simeprevir, also known as TMC43, is a drug for the treatment and cure of hepatitis C. In the United States, simeprevir is approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in combination with peginterferon-alfa and ribavirin for hepatitis C and hepatitis B. Simeprevir has been approved in Japan for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C infection, genotype 1.

Biological target:
Simeprevir is a potent NS3/4A protease inhibitor.
In vitro activity:
Simeprevir demonstrated genotoxic effects in HepG2 cells; the highest concentration of simeprevir exhibited cytotoxicity. Simeprevir increased micronuclei frequency at higher concentrations. Combinations with ribavirin showed significant results for both simeprevir and sofosbuvir. Interestingly, the combination index indicated antagonism, suggesting a reduction in the genotoxic effects of ribavirin when combined with sofosbuvir or simeprevir.

In vivo activity:
The results of this study imply that simeprevir does not inhibit SARS-CoV-2 in vivo. In a transgenic hACE2 mouse model of SARS-CoV-2 infection, intraperitoneal administration of simeprevir for 3 consecutive days failed to suppress viral replication.
