Description

Delavirdine mesylate (U-90152) is a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) used as part of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) for the treatment of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1. Delavirdine mesylate selectively inhibits HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (RNA-dependent DNA polymerase) over other cellular polymerases with IC50 values of 0.26, 440 and >550 μM for HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, DNA polymerase α and DNA polymerase δ. U-90152 (Delavirdine mesylate) blocked the replication in peripheral blood lymphocytes of 25 primary HIV-1 isolates with a mean 50% effective dose of 0.066 +/- 0.137 microM.
