自引入聚乙二醇化干扰素-α(pIFNa)和利巴韦林(RBV)治疗以来,达到持续抗病毒应答的慢性丙型肝炎病毒(HCV)感染患者的百分比有所增加。然而,目前的标准pIFNa/RBV疗法不仅成功率低(约50%),而且往往伴有严重的副作用。因此,迫切需要开发新的抗HCV药物。亲环素(Cyp)抑制剂是最有前途的新的抗HCV药物正在开发中。最近的临床研究表明,Cyp抑制剂是有效的抗HCV药物,具有新颖的作用机制和疗效特征,使其成为与当前和未来HCV治疗组合的有吸引力的候选者。
The percentage of patients chronically infected with hepatitis C virus (HCV) who have reached sustained antiviral response has increased since the introduction of the pegylated interferon-alpha (pIFNa) and ribavirin (RBV) treatment. However, the current standard pIFNa/RBV therapy not only has a low success rate (about 50%) but is often associated with serious side effects. Thus, there is an urgent need for the development of new anti-HCV agents. Cyclophilin (Cyp) inhibitors are among the most promising of the new anti-HCV agents under development. Recent clinical studies demonstrate that Cyp inhibitors are potent anti-HCV drugs, with a novel mechanism of action and efficacy profiles that make them attractive candidates for combination with current and future HCV treatments.
