Treatment of viral
infection

Viruses
Obligate intracellular parasites
Consist of a core genome in a protein shell & some
are surrounded by a lipoprotein
Lack a cell wall and cell membrane
Do not carry out metabolic processes
Replication depends on the host cell
Has a specific surface for a specific receptor target
Anti Viral
Antiviral agents must either block viral entry into or
exit from the cell or be active inside the host cell
Viral Life Cycle
1. Adsorption (binding & attachment)
fusion & penetration to host cell
2. Un-coating of viral capsule
3. Early transcription Early
translation
4. Genome Replication
5. End state of transcription
6. New viral assembly
7. Budding & release
Sites of Drug Action
Antiviral
compounds
Many well-known antiviral
compounds are nucleoside and
nucleotide analogs:
Acyclovir is a nucleoside
analog similar to guanosine, but
contains an acyclic sugar group
Antivirus
Anti-nonretrovirus Antiretrovirus
- Doses :
HBV infection :
Adult : SC/IM, 5 millionU/day (once/d) or 10millU (3xweekly)
Children : 6 millionU/m2BSA 3xweekly for 4 6 month.
HCV infection :
* Interferon -2b mono th/ (3MillionU SC/IM,3xweekly)
* Peg-interferon -2a 180g SC, once a week, for 48 weeks
* Peg-interferon -2b 0.5-1.5g/kg, 1x/week for 6 months
* Combination Peg-interferon + ribavirin more effective for
chronic HCV
HIV pts: Interferon- 3million U3x weekly th/
thrombocytopenia HIV pts who are resistant with
zidovudine.
Antiretroviral (Anti-HIV) Agents
The first available agents: Nucleoside analog class
competitive inhibition of the viral reverse
transcriptase
Nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors
The protease inhibitors
The combination of at least two antiretroviral
agents (cocktail therapy) enhancing potency
and delaying resistance
Antiviral for HIV infection
Classification :
Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors
- Nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NRTI) ;
zidovudine (AZT), lamivudine, zalcitabine, stavudine
- Non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTI) ;
nevirapine, efavirenz
Protease inhibitors (PI)
Saquinavir, ritonavir, indinavir, nelvinavir, amprenavir
Steps in replication of HIV targeted by antiviral drugs:
Nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase Inhibitors (NRTI)
Reverse transcriptase (RT) an enzyme used to
generate complementary DNA (cDNA) from tRNA.
NRTI: a competitive inhibitor of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase
Active in early state of HIV replication inhibit acute
infection for the susceptible cells, but lack of effect in cells
already infected by HIV.
Indication : HIV (HIV-1 & HIV-2) infection
Needs enzyme cell host activation (phosphorylation) in
cytoplasm.
Strongly recommended to use as a component of 3 4
other HIV drugs in a regiment of th/ HIV.
Non-Nucleoside RTI for HIV
- MoA: act by binding non-competitively to the RT.
- Bind directly to a site on the viral RT that is near to
but distinct from the binding site of the NRTIs.
- Neither compete with nucleoside triphosphates nor
require phosphorylation to be active.
- Specific activity against HIV-1
- The rapid emergence of resistance , therefor prohibits
monotherapy
- No cross-resistance between the NNRTIs & the NRTIs
or the protease inhibitors
- Metabolized by the CYP3A P450 isoform, excreted
in the urine
Protease inhibitors
Including ritonavir, nelfinavir, saquinavir, indinavir and
amprenavir.
Options are listed alphabetically. For recommendations for ART use during pregnancy, see Management
of HIV-Infected Pregnant Women Including Prevention of Perinatal HIV Transmission.
Fixed-dose combinations should not be used in patients who need dose adjustment due to renal
failure. When combination pills are used, patients should be educated about which drugs are combined
in that pill.
a
When efavirenz is used with tenofovir + emtricitabine; Atripla is a fixed-dose, three-drug combination
pill, can be prescribed.
b
For women considering pregnancy or likely to become pregnant, efavirenz, or combination pills
containing efavirenz, should be avoided. If there are no alternatives for efavirenz in women of
childbearing age, clinicians should strongly advise the use of effective contraception and should obtain a
pregnancy test before initiation.
c
Disadvantage to this regimen is twice-daily dosing; however, the benefit of increased tolerability may
outweigh the limitation of twice-daily dosing.

Regimens Not Recommended or Contraindicated for Initial Treatment of HIV Infection
Drug or Regiment not Recommended Rationale
Abacavir + lamivudine + zidovudine (co-formulated Higher rates of virologic failure with triple NRTI
as Trizivir) therapies
All triple and quadruple NRTI therapies
Tenofovir + didanosine + NNRTI High risk of early failure, possibly due to a lower
barrier to development of resistance; it is unknown
whether combining tenofovir + didanosine + a PI is
more efficacious
Contraindicated Therapies and Components for Rationale
Initial Treatment (Do Not Use)
Stavudine/Didanosine (d4T/ddI) Should be avoided during pregnancy. If no alternative combinations are feasible, use with
FDA Pregnancy Categories caution.
Stavudine Category C Fatal lactic acidosis in pregnant or postpartum women has been reported
Didanosine Category B
Several less severe cases of pancreatitis with or without lactic acidosis and hepatic failure
have also been reported in pregnant women
Monitor hepatic and renal function monthly if pregnancy occurs while taking
stavudine/didanosine
Ribavirin (non-ARV agent) Ribavirin is an absolute contraindication during pregnancy
FDA Pregnancy Category X Effective contraception should be used during ribavirin therapy and for 6 months after
cessation of therapy
Fetal abnormalities demonstrated in animal and human studies
Its function as a nucleoside analogue may impact fetal DNA
Pegylated interferon (non-ARV Abortifacient effects in rhesus monkeys
agent) Birth defects and fetal death with combination ribavirin therapy
