HSV

Fiacitabine is a selective inhibitior of DNA replication of herpes simplex virus(HSV) with IC50 values of 2.5 nM and 12.6 nM for HSV1 and HSV2, respectively.

ASP2151, is a herpes virus helicase-primase inhibitor. ASP2151 had significantly better anti-HSV activity against herpes simplex keratitis than valacyclovir and acyclovir after systemic or topical use.

BAY 57-1293 is a potent helicase primase inhibitor. BAY 57-1293 inhibits replication of herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1 and type 2 in the nanomolar range in vitro by abrogating the enzymatic activity of the viral primase-helicase complex.
