Bioactivity | DPC-681 is a potent and selective inhibitor of HIV protease with IC90s for wild-type HIV-1 of 4 to 40 nM.IC50 value: 4 - 40 nM [1]Target: HIV proteasein vitro: DPC 681 is extremely potent inhibitor of wild-type HIV-1. When all of the HIV-1 strains tested are considered, the average concentrations required for 90% inhibition of replication were 7.3 ± 3.4 for DPC 681. DPC 681 shows no loss in potency toward recombinant mutant HIVs with the D30N mutation and a fivefold or smaller loss in potency toward mutant variants with three to five amino acid substitutions. [1]in vivo: The total body clearance (CL) of DPC 681 in dogs was high (1.8 liter/h/kg) equaling hepatic blood flow for this species (1.8 liter/h/kg). After an oral dosing, the Cmax increased ninefold between the 10- and 30-mg/kg DPC 681 dose groups. Bioavailability also increased between the 10- and 30-mg/kg dose groups (18.3 and 78.1%, respectively). These data suggest that hepatic extraction (first-pass effect) can be saturated in the dog.
