In vitro activity of R 61837, a new antirhinovirus compound

Abstract: R 61837 or 3-methoxy-6-[4-(3-methylphenyl)-1-piperazinyl]pyridazine is a new and potent inhibitor of rhinoviruses at concentrations not inhibitory to HeLa cell growth. Different rhinovirus serotypes varied widely in their susceptibility to the antiviral agent. The MICs for 50% CPE reduction ranged from 0.004 to 15 micrograms/ml. The yields of the most susceptible serotypes were reduced by a factor of 1,000 to 10,000 after single round high multiplicity infections in presence of low concentrations of the compou… Show more

“…Multiple therapeutic approaches targeting HRV have been progressed into the clinic, including small-molecule capsid-binding inhibitors (pleconaril [11], pirodavir [1,14], and BTA798 [3]), a 3C protease inhibitor (rupintrivir [35]), and soluble ICAM-1 (45). Although several inhibitors showed a modest antiviral effect in early clinical trials, none have been approved for treatment.…”

“…The wide range of susceptibilities of different HRV sero- (2) and slightly different from those described for chalcone, dichloroflavan, and isoflavans, which can be removed from neutralized serotypes by organic-solvent extraction (10,17). A classical S-shaped dose-response curve between the extent of neutralization and the ratio of pirodavir concentration to MIC could be observed (Fig.…”
