GS 9260是TLR7的激动剂(agonist)。它会绑定(bind)到免疫细胞表面TLR7受体, 导致细胞因子(cytokines)的生产,包括干扰素。是一种口服药物。据报道,是安全的。
大家都在猜测,Gilead公司可能会进行进一步的临床试验.
GS 9260 is a TLR7 agonist. That is, it will bind to Toll Like, TL7 receptors on the surface of immune cells leading to the production of cytokines, including Interferon. It is an oral drug. It has been reported to be safe in human.
We are guessing Gilead may be conducting further clinical trials.
GS-9620 in Humans
Finally, U. Lopatin and colleagues tested the safety, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics of GS-9620 in human volunteers without viral hepatitis.
This double-blind placebo-controlled study included 75 healthy volunteers. A majority were men and white, and the average age was about 30 years. Participants received single ascending doses of 0.3, 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 12 mg GS-9620; 7 cohorts took the drug on an empty stomach and 3 cohorts took it with food.
GS-9620 was generally safe and well tolerated with single doses through 12 mg. The most common adverse events were headaches, chills, and fever. There were no serious adverse events or discontinuations due to adverse events or laboratory abnormalities. A total of 49 treatment-emergent events in 15 people were judged to be drug-related. The number of adverse events increased with higher doses, from 1 per cohort with 2, 4, or 6 mg, to 11 with 8 mg and 31 with 12 mg. Some participants experienced mild platelet decreases, but these changes were "not notable enough to be considered adverse events," according to the researchers.
GS-9620 treatment led to dose-dependent increases in various cytokines, chemokines, and interferon-stimulated genes. Systemic interferon changes were only seen with the 12mg dose. Volunteers receiving the 8 mg and 12 mg doses experienced increases in percentages of activated T-cells, B-cells, and NK cells. "GS-9620 is a potent, oral small molecule agonist of TLR7, which was safe and well tolerated in single ascending doses up to 12 mg by mouth," the investigators concluded.
"These findings confirm the preclinical data suggesting that GS-9620 induces multiple cytokines (including Interferon) pre-systemically, with the potential for decreased adverse events compared to systemic pegylated interferon," they continued. "GS-9620 is a promising, oral immunomodulatory agent with potency in the low milligram range and a therapeutic window which supports further evaluation in the therapy of viral hepatitis B and C."
