MedKoo CAT#: 328092

CAS#: 143491-54-7

Description: Racivir, also known as PSI-5004; (±)-FTC; RCV, 524W91, is a reverse transcriptase inhibitor potentially for the treatment of HIV infection. 524W91 was anabolized to the active 5'-triphosphate in these cells. HBV replication was equally inhibited in cultures incubated with 524W91 when the drug was added 24 h preinfection, at infection, or 24 h postinfection. 524W91 inhibited HBV replication by 50% at less than 20 nM in human hepatocytes.
