Rencofilstat

Rencofilstat (CRV431) is a non-immunosuppressive analogue of cyclosporine A and pan-cyclophilin inhibitor, potently inhibits cyclophilin isoforms A, B, D, and G with IC50 of 1-7 nM.Rencofilstat (CRV431) is more than 13 times more potent than the parent compound, cyclosporine A (CsA).Rencofilstat (CRV431) inhibits liver HBV DNA and HBsAg, reduces liver HBV DNA levels and moderately decreased serum HBsAg levels in HBV transgenic mouse model.Rencofilstat (CRV431) shows potential as a drug candidate for chronic liver diseases.
