Quality by Design-Guided Development of Hydrogel-Forming Microneedles for Transdermal Delivery of Enfuvirtide. [PDF]
Enfuvirtide, the inaugural biomimetic fusion inhibitor of HIV-1, has exhibited remarkable antiviral efficacy when administered in conjunction with an optimized antiretroviral regimen.

Discontinuation of enfuvirtide in heavily pretreated HIV-infected individuals [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Enfuvirtide was shown to be highly effective in treatment- experienced patients. Data on discontinuation of enfuvirtide and switch to new antiretroviral drugs are scarce.

Enfuvirtide-Protoporphyrin IX Dual-Loaded Liposomes: In Vitro Evidence of Synergy against HIV‑1 Entry into Cells [PDF]
We have developed a nanocarrier consisting of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) for combined delivery of two human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) entry inhibitors, enfuvirtide (ENF) and protoporphyrin IX (PPIX).

A novel class of anti-HIV agents with multiple copies of enfuvirtide enhances inhibition of viral replication and cellular transmission in vitro. [PDF]
We constructed novel HIV-1 fusion inhibitors that may overcome the current limitations of enfuvirtide, the first such therapeutic in this class. The three prototypes generated by the Dock-and-Lock (DNL) technology to comprise four copies of enfuvirtide ...

Background Resistance to the fusion inhibitor enfuvirtide (ENF) is achieved by changes in the gp41 subunit of the HIV envelope glycoprotein (Env). Specific ENF-associated mutational pathways correlate with immunological recovery, even after virological ...

The rare HIV-1 gp41 mutations 43T and 50V elevate enfuvirtide resistance levels of common enfuvirtide resistance mutations that did not impact susceptibility to sifuvirtide [PDF]
Mutations that are selected at low frequency and/or reside outside the enfuvirtide target region, amino acid 36-45 of gp41, might still be important determinants for drug resistance.

Susceptibility of HIV-1 subtypes B', CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE that are predominantly circulating in China to HIV-1 entry inhibitors. [PDF]
The B', CRF07_BC and CRF01_AE are the predominant HIV-1 subtypes in China. It is essential to determine their baseline susceptibility to HIV entry inhibitors before these drugs are used in China.The baseline susceptibility of 14 representative HIV-1 ...

Recent Developments in HIV Antivirals: The Prospect of Prophylactic Drugs to Change the Pandemic. [PDF]
Replication cycle of HIV‐1. The scheme provides an overview from virus entry over reverse transcription of viral RNA into viral DNA, provirus DNA integration into the host genome, genome expression by transcription and translation, proteolytic processing of the viral polyproteins, viral maturation to viral release from the cell. The various targets for

Evolution of genotypic resistance to enfuvirtide in HIV-1 isolates from different group M subtypes [PDF]
Background: Enfuvirtide is active against isolates from different HIV-1 subtypes. In vitro and in vivo studies reveal that resistance mutations are primarily found within the region spanning amino acid 36-45 of gp41.

Relapse of Intravenous Drug Use Triggered by Enfuvirtide, a Parenteral Antiretroviral Medication [PDF]
Fuzeon (R) (enfuvirtide; Hoffmann-LaRoche, Nutley, NJ) is a parenteral medication prescribed to antiretroviral-experienced HIV patients. Clinicians are frequently concerned when prescribing enfuvirtide to former drug addicts because of the risk of ...
