In Vitro and Clinical Evaluation of Potential Interactions of Bemnifosbuvir with Drug Transporters.

ABSTRACT: Bemnifosbuvir is a novel oral guanosine nucleotide prodrug candidate for the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus infection. Potential drug-drug interactions (DDIs) of bemnifosbuvir as a substrate or perpetrator with regard to ATP-binding cassette (ABC) and solute carrier (SLC) transporters were evaluated in vitro and in clinical studies. Bemnifosbuvir was demonstrated in vitro as a substrate and inhibitor of the ABC transporters' P-glycoprotein (P-gp), as an inhibitor of the breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP), as well as a weak inhibitor of SLC transporters, including organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B1 (OATP1B1). Phase 1 studies in healthy participants were subsequently conducted to assess the clinical significance of transporter-mediated DDI potentials of bemnifosbuvir as
