Clinical Trials for VS411
VS411, ViroStatics' lead compound for the treatment of HIV/AIDS, combines the antiviral activity of didanosine (ddI) with the cytostatic propoerties of low-dose hydroxyurea (HU). The two agents, each of which have been employed in the clinical setting for many years, have been formulated together in a fixed dose combination product known as VS411. Beneficial synergies between the drugs’ mechanisms of action, combined with HU’s immunomodulating properties and the combination’s favorable resistance profile against ddI-resistant HIV, allow the investigation of lower doses of each drug than are currently prescribed, potentially minimizing the complexity, toxicity and cost of treatment while maintaining therapeutic efficacy.
