FV-100, also known as Cf1743, is an orally available nucleoside analogue drug [1] with antiviral activity. [2] It may be effective against shingles. [3]
It was discovered in 1999 in the laboratories of Prof Chris McGuigan, Welsh School of Pharmacy and Prof. Jan Balzarini, Rega Institute, Leuven, Belgium. [4]
FV-100 was tested against valaciclovir in a phase II trial in patients with herpes zoster. The trial was sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb. [5] The drug is currently being developed by ContraVir Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Edison, New Jersey. [6] It has reached Phase III clinical trials. [7]
