Maribavir is an orally available benzimidazole riboside compound with activity against cytomegalovirus (CMV). Maribavir is a selective ATP competitor of viral UL97 kinase, which is involved in viral nuclear maturation events, such as viral DNA assembly and movement of viral capsids from the nucleus of infected cells. Maribavir has activity against strains of CMV that are resistant to standard anti-CMV agents.
Maribavir is a Cytomegalovirus pUL97 Kinase Inhibitor. The mechanism of action of maribavir is as a Cytomegalovirus pUL97 Kinase Inhibitor, and Cytochrome P450 3A4 Inhibitor, and P-Glycoprotein Inhibitor, and Breast Cancer Resistance Protein Inhibitor.

4 Drug and Medication Information
4.1 Drug Indication

Maribavir is indicated for the treatment of adult and pediatric patients (weighing >35kg and at least 12 years old) with post-transplant cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection which is refractory to standard treatment with [ganciclovir], [valganciclovir], [cidofovir], or [foscarnet].

5 Pharmacology and Biochemistry
5.1 Pharmacology

Maribavir exerts its antiviral efficacy via an alternative target as compared to traditional CMV antivirals and is thus useful in the treatment of CMV infections that have proven resistant to standard therapy. Maribavir should not be used concomitantly with ganciclovir or valganciclovir, as these molecules both require activation via CMV pUL97 in order to exert their antiviral effect. Taking them alongside maribavir - an inhibitor of this same kinase - will therefore significantly reduce their antiviral activity.


5.2 MeSH Pharmacological Classification

Antiviral Agents

Agents used in the prophylaxis or therapy of VIRUS DISEASES. Some of the ways they may act include preventing viral replication by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase; binding to specific cell-surface receptors and inhibiting viral penetration or uncoating; inhibiting viral protein synthesis; or blocking late stages of virus assembly. (See all compounds classified as Antiviral Agents.)

5.5 Absorption, Distribution and Excretion

Absorption

Population pharmacokinetic modeling in patients receiving maribavir 400mg twice daily showed an AUC0-tau and Cmax of 128 g.h/mL and 17.2 g/mL, respectively. It has a median Tmax of one to three hours.


Route of Elimination

Maribavir is eliminated primarily via hepatic metabolism. Following the oral administration of radiolabeled maribavir, 61% of the dose was excreted in the urine (<2% as unchanged drug) and 14% was excreted in the feces (5.7% as unchanged drug).


Volume of Distribution

The mean apparent steady-state volume of distribution for maribavir was 27.3 L.


Clearance

In post-transplant patients, the mean oral clearance of maribavir was 2.85 L/h.


5.6 Metabolism/Metabolites

Maribavir is extensively metabolized following oral administration, primarily by CYP3A4 and, to a lesser extent, by CYP1A2. Its major circulating metabolite is VP 44469, an inactive N-dealkylated metabolite.


5.7 Biological Half-Life

In post-transplant patients, the mean half-life of elimination was 4.32 hours.


5.8 Mechanism of Action

Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a herpesvirus commonly causing infection in patients following stem cell or organ transplants. As with other herpesviruses, CMV tends to persist in the host and become reactivated under immunosuppressive conditions - patients requiring multiple immunosuppressive medications to combat transplant rejection are thus at a much higher risk of developing serious CMV infections. Maribavir belongs to a class of anti-cytomegalovirus antivirals called benzimidazole ribosides. It competitively inhibits the human CMV pUL97 viral protein kinase, which results in viable but severely defective viruses upon replication, although the reasons for this remain poorly defined. In addition, maribavir also inhibits viral release from the nucleus to the cytoplasm by inhibiting pUL97-dependent phosphorylation of the nuclear lamina component lamin A/C, although the extent to which this activity contributes to its antiviral efficacy is unclear.
