tmc353121 is a rsv fusion inhibitor. it has been developed from the precursor molecule jnj-2408068 using a molecular modelling approach. it maintains high activity (pec50 9.9) and low cytotoxicity, while presenting a shorter retention time in the lung (lung t1/2 25 h). [1]tmc353121 was found to inhibit rsv by preventing both virus cell fusion and syncytia formation by causing a local disturbance of the natural six-helix bundle conformation of rsv-f protein.tmc353121 reduces viral load in therapeutic and prophylactic administration. tmc353121 has potent antiviral properties in vivo in a balb/c mice model and protects against lung infection and virus-induced inflammation.[2]tmc353121 had dose-dependent antiviral activity, which varied from 1log10 reduction ofpeak viral load to complete inhibition of the rsv replication. tmc353121 (0.39 μg/ml) can completely inhibit the shedding of rsv. and a dose-dependent reduction of infγ, il6 and mip1α was associated. tmc353121 administered as ci for 16 days was generally well-tolerated.
