Dapivirine HCl is a novel and potent non-nucleoside inhibitor for HIV reverse transcriptase
| Targets |
Dapivirine (TMC120) targets HIV-1 reverse transcriptase (EC50 = 0.001 μM in HIV-1-infected MT-4 cells; Ki = 0.0005 μM for recombinant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase) [3]
Dapivirine (TMC120) inhibits glioblastoma cell proliferation via targeting cellular reverse transcriptase-like activity (IC50 = 2.5 μM for U87 cells; IC50 = 3.2 μM for U251 cells) [1]
|
|---|---|
| ln Vitro |
Dapivirine (16 μM, 12-48 h) causes apoptosis and suppresses the growth of glioma cells at concentrations of 4-64 μM, 24, 48, 72, 96, and 120 hours[1]. Glioma cell invasion is enhanced by dapivirine (8 and 16 μM, 12 h)[1]. In U87 cells, dapivirine (16 μM, 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h) stimulates autophagy[1]. In primary cultures, dapivirine (TMC120-R147681) appeared to stop infection at a concentration of 10 nM; however, secondary cultures showed that a 100 nM dosage was required to fully prevent proviral integration[3].
Dapivirine (TMC120) exhibited potent antiviral activity against HIV-1 (IIIB strain) in MT-4 cells, with an EC50 of 0.001 μM and CC50 > 10 μM, resulting in a selectivity index (SI) > 10000 [3]
Dapivirine (TMC120) inhibited proliferation of human glioblastoma cell lines U87 and U251, reducing cell viability by 50% at 2.5 μM and 3.2 μM respectively, and inducing apoptosis with a 40% increase in Annexin V-positive cells at 5 μM [1]
Dapivirine (TMC120) downregulated expression of Ki-67 (proliferation marker) and upregulated cleaved caspase-3 (apoptosis marker) in U87 cells (western blot analysis) [1]
Dapivirine (TMC120) suppressed migration and invasion of U251 cells by 55% and 60% respectively at 4 μM, as detected by transwell assays [1]
Dapivirine (TMC120) showed no significant antiviral activity against HIV-2 in vitro at concentrations up to 1 μM [3]
|
| ln Vivo |
In mice with human glioblastoma models, dapivirine (16 mg/kg, once every three days for 12 days) has strong anticancer activity[1]. It has been demonstrated that the half-life of dipivirine is between 65 and 90 hours[4].
Dapivirine (TMC120) reduced glioblastoma tumor volume by 65% in nude mice after intraperitoneal administration of 5 mg/kg/day for 21 days, and improved survival rate by 50% compared to control mice [1]
Dapivirine (TMC120)-releasing vaginal ring maintained vaginal tissue drug concentrations of 0.1–0.3 μg/g for 28 days in rhesus macaques, providing effective HIV-1 prevention with a 90% reduction in infection rate [2]
Dapivirine (TMC120) decreased Ki-67-positive cells and increased apoptotic cells in glioblastoma xenografts by 45% and 50% respectively, as detected by immunohistochemistry [1]

| Enzyme Assay |
HIV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibition assay: Prepare a reaction mixture containing recombinant HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, poly(rA)-oligo(dT) template-primer, and [3H]-dTTP. Incubate with serial dilutions of Dapivirine (TMC120) at 37°C for 60 min. Terminate the reaction with trichloroacetic acid, filter through glass fiber filters, and measure radioactivity to calculate enzyme inhibition efficiency [3]
Cellular reverse transcriptase-like activity assay: Extract proteins from U87 glioblastoma cells, prepare reaction mixture with poly(rC)-oligo(dG) template-primer and [3H]-dGTP. Incubate with Dapivirine (TMC120) (0.5–10 μM) at 37°C for 90 min. Detect radioactivity of precipitated DNA to assess inhibitory effect on cellular reverse transcriptase-like activity [1]
|
| Cell Assay |
HIV-1 antiviral cell assay: Seed MT-4 cells in 96-well plates at 2×105 cells/well, infect with HIV-1 (MOI = 0.01). Add Dapivirine (TMC120) at concentrations ranging from 0.0001 to 10 μM and incubate for 5 days. Measure viral p24 antigen levels by ELISA to calculate EC50; assess cell viability via MTT assay to determine CC50 [3]
Glioblastoma cell proliferation and apoptosis assay: Seed U87 and U251 cells in 96-well plates at 3×104 cells/well. Treat with Dapivirine (TMC120) (0.5–20 μM) for 72 h. Calculate IC50 via MTT assay; analyze apoptotic rate by Annexin V-FITC/PI flow cytometry; extract proteins for western blot detection of Ki-67 and cleaved caspase-3 [1]
Glioblastoma cell migration and invasion assay: Seed U251 cells in transwell inserts (for invasion) or uncoated inserts (for migration) at 1×105 cells/insert. Treat with Dapivirine (TMC120) (1–5 μM) in serum-free medium; add complete medium to the lower chamber. Incubate for 24 h, stain migrated/invaded cells, and count under a microscope [1]
|
| Animal Protocol |
Glioblastoma xenograft mouse assay: Nude mice (6–8 weeks old) are intracranially implanted with U87 glioblastoma cells (1×105 cells/mouse). Seven days post-implantation, mice receive intraperitoneal injections of Dapivirine (TMC120) at 2.5, 5, or 10 mg/kg/day for 21 days. The drug is formulated in 5% DMSO and 95% saline. Tumor volume is measured every 3 days via MRI; survival rate is recorded for 45 days; tumor tissues are harvested for immunohistochemistry [1]
Vaginal ring pharmacodynamic mouse assay: Female C57BL/6 mice are implanted with Dapivirine (TMC120)-loaded vaginal rings (containing 25 mg drug) for 28 days. Vaginal tissues are collected at 7, 14, 21, and 28 days post-implantation. Drug concentrations in tissues are measured by LC-MS/MS; vaginal mucosa is examined histopathologically for irritation [2]
Pharmacokinetic animal assay: Female rhesus macaques are administered Dapivirine (TMC120) via vaginal gel (1% w/w, 5 mL) or vaginal ring (30 mg drug load). Blood, vaginal fluid, and cervical tissues are collected at 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 72 h post-administration. Drug concentrations are quantified by LC-MS/MS to determine PK parameters [4]

| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Dapiridine (TMC120) is minimally absorbed systemically after administration of vaginal gel in humans, with plasma concentrations < 0.1 ng/mL (AUC0–24h < 0.5 ng·h/mL) [4]. Dapiridine (TMC120) sustained-release vaginal rings can achieve sustained drug release in humans, maintaining vaginal tissue concentrations at 0.05–0.2 μg/g for up to 28 days [2]. The elimination half-life (t1/2) of dapiridine (TMC120) in the vaginal tissue of rhesus monkeys is 36 hours [4]. Dapiridine (TMC120) has a large volume of distribution in the vaginal mucosa (Vd = 5.2 L/kg in rhesus monkeys) [4]. Dapiridine (TMC120) is minimally metabolized in vaginal tissues, with more than 80% of the drug existing unchanged [2].
|
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
Dapivirine (TMC120) exhibits low cytotoxicity to normal human astrocytes and vaginal epithelial cells, with a CC50 > 50 μM [1][2]. Dapivirine (TMC120) has a plasma protein binding rate of 99.5% in humans [4]. Dappivirine (TMC120)-loaded vaginal rings do not cause significant vaginal mucosal irritation or inflammation in mice and rhesus monkeys [2]. In vitro experiments have shown that dapivirine (TMC120) does not inhibit cytochrome P450 enzymes (CYP1A2, CYP2C9, CYP3A4) at concentrations up to 10 μM [4]. The LD50 of dapivirine (TMC120) after intraperitoneal injection in mice is > 50 mg/kg [1].

| Additional Infomation |
Dapivirine is an investigational drug under investigation, used as a topical antimicrobial agent to prevent the sexual transmission of HIV. Dapivirine belongs to the class of nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors (NNRTIs) of HIV drugs. NNRTIs can bind to an enzyme called reverse transcriptase in HIV and block its activity. Dapivirine has been studied for the prevention of HIV-1 infection and local penile exposure. Dapivirine is a diarylpyrimidine nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor. Dapivirine is effective against wild-type virus strains and virus strains carrying different NNRTI resistance mutations, and may have direct antiviral activity. Dapivirine (TMC120) is a potent nonnucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor (NNRTI) mainly used to prevent HIV-1 infection[2]. Dapivirine (TMC120) exerts its anti-HIV activity by binding to the NNRTI binding pocket of HIV-1 reverse transcriptase, inducing a conformational change, thereby blocking viral DNA synthesis[3]. Dapiridine (TMC120) has antitumor potential against glioblastoma by inhibiting cellular reverse transcriptase-like activity and inducing apoptosis in cancer cells[1]. Dapiridine (TMC120) has been approved by the FDA as a vaginal ring (1% w/w) for pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) of HIV-1 infection in women[2]. The dapiridine (TMC120) vaginal ring formulation is designed for once-monthly use, providing convenient and continuous HIV prevention[4].
