Optical Activity UNSPECIFIED

Tecovirimat (ST-246) is a low-molecular-weight compound (molecular weight = 376), that is potent (concentration that inhibited virus replication by 50% = 0.010 microM), selective (concentration of compound that inhibited cell viability by 50% = >40 microM), and active against multiple orthopoxviruses, including vaccinia, monkeypox, camelpox, cowpox, ectromelia (mousepox), and variola viruses. The antiviral activity is specific for orthopoxviruses and the compound does not inhibit the replication of other RNA- and DNA-containing viruses or inhibit cell proliferation at concentrations of compound that are antiviral. ST-246 targets vaccinia virus p37, a viral protein required for envelopment and secretion of extracellular forms of virus. The compound is orally bioavailable and protects multiple animal species from lethal orthopoxvirus challenge. rug substance and drug product processes have been developed and commercial scale batches have been produced using Good Manufacturing Processes (GMP). Human phase I clinical trials have shown that ST-246 is safe and well tolerated in healthy human volunteers. Based on the results of the clinical evaluation, once a day dosing should provide plasma drug exposure in the range predicted to be antiviral based on data from efficacy studies in animal models of orthopoxvirus disease.

CNS Activity

Curator's Comment: Tecovirimat (ST-246) is CNS penetrant in animals. No human data available.

Sample Use Guides

Phase 2, double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial was conducted to assess the safety, tolerability, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of tecovirimat (ST-246) when administered as a single daily oral dose (400 mg or 600 mg) for 14 days in fed adult volunteers.
Route of Administration: Oral
BSC-40 cells were infected with 2 PFU/cell of vaccinia virus and incubated in the presence and absence of 5 uM tecovirimat (ST-246) . At selected times postinfection, extracellular virus in the medium and cell associated virus were quantified by plaque assay. The results show that ST-246 reduced extracellular virus titers by approximately 10 fold at 24 h postinfection, while having little effect on the level of intracellular virus titers relative to untreated controls. These results suggest that ST-246 inhibits extracellular virus formation.
