Effect of oral treatment with (S)-HPMPA, HDP-(S)-HPMPA or ODE-(S)-HPMPA on replication of murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) or human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) in animal models.
We utilized BALB/c mice infected with murine CMV (MCMV) or severe combined immunodeficient (SCID) mice implanted with human fetal tissue and infected with HCMV to determine the efficacy of (S)-9-[3-hydroxy-2-(phophonomethoxy)propyl]adenine ((S)-HPMPA), hexadecyloxypropyl-(S)-HPMPA (HDP-(S)-HPMPA) or octadecyloxyethyl-(S)-HPMPA (ODE-(S)-HPMPA). In MCMV-infected BALB/c mice, oral HDP-(S)-HPMPA at 30 mg/kg significantly reduced mortality when started 24-48 h post inoculation. In the experimental HCMV infection, oral administration of vehicle or 10mg/kg of (S)-HPMPA, HDP-(S)-HPMPA or ODE-(S)-HPMPA was initiated 24h after infection and continued for 28 consecutive days. Cidofovir (CDV), at 20mg/kg given i.p., was used as a positive control. HDP-(S)-HPMPA or ODE-(S)-HPMPA significantly reduced viral replication compared to vehicle-treated mice, while oral (S)-HPMPA was ineffective.
