Structure:
DrugBank Description: Vicriviroc, also known as SCH 417690 and SCH-D, is currently in clinical trials for the management of HIV-1. This pyrimidine based drug inhibits the interaction of HIV-1 with CCR5, preventing viral entry into cells. This drug was developed by Schering-Plough.
CAS Number: 306296-47-9
Molecular Weight: 533.6288
DrugBank Indication: Investigated for use/treatment in HIV infection and viral infection.
DrugBank Pharmacology: --
DrugBank MoA: Vicriviroc is a once daily oral inhibitor of CCR5. It noncompetitively binds to a hydrophobic pocket between transmembrance helices by the extracellular side of CCR5. This allosteric antagonism causes a conformational change in the protein preventing binding of gp120 to CCR5. This prevents the entry of HIV into the cell.
Targets: C-C chemokine receptor type 5
Inclusion Criteria: Target associated
