Article Title: TAK-220, a novel small-molecule CCR5 antagonist, has favorable anti-human immunodeficiency virus interactions with other antiretrovirals in vitro
Abstract: TAK-220 is a CCR5 antagonist, part of the new class of anti-human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (anti-HIV-1) entry inhibitors. We evaluated the anti-HIV-1 interactions between TAK-220 and various anti-retrovirals in vitro. Synergy was observed with all drugs at the 90 and 95% inhibitory concentrations. The favorable drug interactions observed suggest that further clinical evaluation is warranted. Copyright © 2005, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
