PSI-6206 (also known as GS331007 and RO-2433), a deaminated derivative of PSI-6130, is a novel, potent and selective HCV NS5B polymerase inhibitor. In a subgenomic HCV replicon assay system, PSI-6206 and 2'-C-methylcytidine were shown to be strong and specific inhibitors of HCV replication. Comparing PSI-6206 to 2'-C-methylcytidine in the HCV replicon assay, it demonstrates lower cellular toxicity and more inhibitory activity.

Biological Activity
| Targets | HCV (EC90 >100 μM) |
| ln Vitro | PSI-6206 (RO 2433) is subjected to surrogate bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) assays as well as a cell-based quantitative real-time RT-PCR assay to assess its anti-HCV activity. No assay shows any activity or cytotoxicity from PSI-6206[1]. PSI-6130 (PSI-6130-TP) and RO2433 (RO2433-TP) both form 5′-triphosphate (TP) that steadily increases over time, reaching steady state levels after 48 hours. Additionally, RO2433-TP prevents both the recombinant HCV polymerase NS5B and the native HCV replicase that is separated from HCV replicon cells from synthesizing RNA[2]. A strong and specific inhibitor of HCV NS5B polymerase, PSI-6206 (RO2433) is the deaminated derivative of PSI-6130[3]. |

Solubility in Formulation 1: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.61 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 40% PEG300 + 5% Tween80 + 45% Saline (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution. For example, if 1 mL of working solution is to be prepared, you can add 100 μL of 25.0 mg/mL clear DMSO stock solution to 400 μL PEG300 and mix evenly; then add 50 μL Tween-80 to the above solution and mix evenly; then add 450 μL normal saline to adjust the volume to 1 mL. Preparation of saline: Dissolve 0.9 g of sodium chloride in 100 mL ddH₂ O to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 2: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.61 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% (20% SBE-β-CD in Saline) (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.

Preparation of 20% SBE-β-CD in Saline (4°C,1 week): Dissolve 2 g SBE-β-CD in 10 mL saline to obtain a clear solution. Solubility in Formulation 3: ≥ 2.5 mg/mL (9.61 mM) (saturation unknown) in 10% DMSO + 90% Corn Oil (add these co-solvents sequentially from left to right, and one by one), clear solution.
