Description: Grazoprevir, also known as MK5172, is a drug approved for the treatment of hepatitis C. It was developed by Merck and completed Phase III trials, following promising results in Phase II when used in combination with the NS5A replication complex inhibitor elbasvir, either with or without ribavirin.Grazoprevir is a second generation hepatitis C virus protease inhibitor acting at the NS3/4a protease targets. It has good activity against a range of HCV genotype variants, including some that are resistant to most currently used antiviral medications.

More Info: MK-5172, is a Next Generation HCV NS3/4a Protease Inhibitor with a Broad HCV Genotypic Activity Spectrum and Potent Activity Against Known Resistance Mutants, in Genotype 1 and 3 HCV-Infected Patients. MK-5172 exhibits excellent selectivity over other serine proteases such as elastase and trypsin (no measurable inhibition), and shows only modest inhibitory potency with chymotrypsin (IC50 = 1.5 µM; 75,000-fold selective). In the genotype 1b replicon assay, MK-5172 potently inhibits viral replication (IC50 = 2 nM) and demonstrates a modest shift in the presence of 50% NHS (EC50 = 9.5 nM). In vitro, MK-5172 inhibits the NS3/4A enzyme from genotypes 1b, 2a, 2b, and 3a with Ki values of <0.02, 0.15, 0.02, and 0.7 nM, respectively. The genotype 2a replicon is also potently inhibited by MK 5172 (EC50 = 5 nM).

Biological target: Grazoprevir (MK-5172) is a selective inhibitor of Hepatitis C virus NS3/4a protease with broad activity across genotypes and resistant variants, with Kis of 0.01 nM (gt1b), 0.01 nM (gt1a), 0.08 nM (gt2a), 0.15 nM (gt2b), 0.90 nM (gt3a), respectively.
In vitro activity: Unlike all other HCV PIs with known cocrystal structures, MK-5172 interacts with the catalytic triad in a unique conformation where the P2 quinoxaline moiety packs largely against the catalytic residues H57 and D81 (Figure 1). The P1–P4 peptidomimetic inhibitor scaffold spans the S1–S4 binding pockets interacting with the carbonyl oxygens of R155 and A157 as well as the Nε of A157. The P1′ acylsulfonamide is positioned in the oxyanion hole and hydrogen bonds to H57, G137, and S139. This binding mode is unchanged when the P2–P4 macrocycle is removed (5172-linear) or replaced with a P1–P3 macrocycle (5172-mcP1P3). Therefore, the binding mode of MK-5172 is a function of the P2 moiety rather than the macrocycle.

In vivo activity: To demonstrate in vivo efficacy, MK-5172 was administered orally to three chronically HCV-infected chimpanzees at a dose of 1 mg per kg twice daily for 7 days. Two of the chimpanzees had wild-type (WT) gt1a or gt1b infections with high viral titers (∼106 IU/ml). A third chimpanzee had a modest viral titer (∼104 IU/ml) that was gt1a NS3 R155K virus. This chimpanzee maintained a chronic R155K viral infection in the absence of prior experimental treatment with an HCV small molecule inhibitor (J. Fontenot, personal communication). Pharmacodynamic responses to MK-5172 are shown in Fig. 4A. Reference: Antimicrob Agents Chemother. 2012 Aug; 56(8): 4161–4167. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3421554/
