Simeprevir is a hepatitis C virus (HCV) NS3/4A protease inhibitor approved for the treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C (genotype 1 and 4). Inhibiting NS3/4A, simeprevir blocks viral replication. In in vitro assays simeprevir was potent against HCV genotype 1a and 1b. Simeprevir must not be administered as monotherapy and should only be prescribed with both peginterferon alfa and ribavirin.

Curator's Comment: There was minimal penetration of the blood-brain barrier.
Originator
Curator's Comment: Patent application WO2008092954A2 is a formulation patent, originally filed by Tibotec Pharmaceuticals, now part of Janssen Pharmaceuticals. The application claims a crystalline form of a substituted macro cyclic compound, preferably a variant of simeprevir, useful for the treatment of HCV infections.

Sample Use Guides
The recommended dose is one 150 mg capsule taken once daily with food. OLYSIO should be administered with both peginterferon alfa and ribavirin. The recommended treatment duration of OLYSIO with peginterferon alfa and ribavirin is 12 weeks, followed by either 12 or 36 additional weeks of peginterferon alfa and ribavirin depending on prior response status.
