Description
Curator's Comment: description was created based on several sources, including: http://adisinsight.springer.com/drugs/800008158 http://files.shareholder.com/downloads/VRTX/3251874583x0xS912057-02-12962/875320/filing.pdf https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23016672

Merimepodib has immunosuppressive activity. It targets hepatitis C indirectly through the inhibition of inositol monophosphate dehydrogenase, which exerts an acute antiproliferative effect on lymphocyte proliferation due to their almost exclusive dependence on the de novo pathway for synthesis of guanosine. Phase II clinical trial study of merimepodib for the treatment of HCV infection and psoriasis were completed. The poor pharmacokinetic-pharmacodynamic results have resulted in discontinuation of clinical trials.
