Cayman GS-621763

GS-621763 is an orally bioavailable prodrug form of the antiviral nucleotide analog GS-443902, which is also an active metabolite of remdesivir (Item No. 30354).^1,2 Upon intestinal absorption, GS-621763 is metabolized into the intermediate metabolite GS-441524 (Item No. 30469), which is then further metabolized to the active nucleotide triphosphate GS-443902 in cells where it induces RNA chain termination and inhibits viral polymerases.² It reduces the cytopathic effect of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) in infected HEp-2 cells (EC₅₀ = 0.26 µM), as well as reduces viral titers in Vero E6 cells infected with various clinical isolates of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2; EC₅₀s = 0.11-0.73 µM). GS-621763 (10 mg/kg) inhibits viral transmission in ferrets infected with the SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern (VOC) P.1, also known as the gamma variant.²
