Acyclovir Glucose Injection
Function and Efficacy
Pharmacological action: This product is a synthetic nucleoside antiviral drug, which has inhibitory effects on herpes simplex virus type Ⅰ (HSV-1), type Ⅱ (HSV-2) and varicella-zoster virus (VZV) in vivo and in vitro. Cell culture results show that this product has the strongest inhibitory effect on HSV-1 virus, followed by HSV-2 and VZV virus. Because this product has affinity for thymidine kinase (TK) encoded by HSV and VZV, it has a highly selective inhibitory effect. This type of viral enzyme converts acyclovir into acyclovir monophosphate, a nucleoside analog. The monophosphate is further converted into diphosphate by guanylate kinase in the cell, and then converted into triphosphate by multiple enzymes in the cell. In vitro, acyclovir triphosphate terminates herpes virus DNA replication in the following three ways: 1) competitive inhibition of viral DNA polymerase; 2) entry and termination of extended viral DNA chain; 3) inactivation of viral DNA polymerase. Compared with VZV, this product has stronger antiviral activity against HSV because of the stronger phosphorylation of the virus's thymidine kinase (TK). Toxicological studies Genotoxicity: 16 genetic toxicity tests were conducted, and no mutagenic effect was found in 4 microbial studies; the results of 2 in vitro cytogenetic tests conducted on mouse lymphoma cells and human lymphocytes showed that this product has a mutagenic effect. In 5 in vitro cytogenetic tests (3 on Chinese hamster ovary cells and 2 on mouse lymphoma cells), no mutagenic effect was found. In 2 in vitro cell transformation tests conducted after administration to immunocompromised, weaned, homologous young mice, one result was positive, and it was seen that the cells were morphologically transformed into tumor cells, while in the other test, the same result was not seen (probably due to lower sensitivity). When Chinese hamsters are given 380-760 times the human dose, chromosomal damage can be caused; when rats are given 62-125 times the dose, there is no significant change in chromosomal damage; the dominant lethal test in mice (at 36-73 times the human dose) is negative. Reproductive toxicity: The results of tests on mice (450 mg/kg/day, PO) and rabbits (25 mg/kg/day, SC) show that this product has no effect on their fertility and reproductive function. The plasma drug concentrations of mice and rats are 9-18 times and 8-15 times the human blood drug levels, respectively. When rats and rabbits are given higher doses (50 mg/kg/day, SC, 11-22 times and 16-31 times the human level, respectively), implantation can be reduced, but the size of the same litter is not affected. When rats take this product (50 mg/kg/day, SC) before and after delivery, the average corpus luteum, total implantation position and live fetuses between groups are statistically significantly reduced. Dogs were given this product for 1 month (50 mg/kg/day, IV, 21-41 times the human dose, blood concentration is 21-41 times that of humans) or for 1 year (60 mg/kg/day, PO, 6-12 times the human dose), and no testicular abnormalities were found. When higher doses were given to rats and dogs, testicular atrophy and sperm reduction were observed. When mice (450 mg/kg/day, PO), rabbits (50 mg/kg/day, SC or IV) and rats (50 mg/kg/day, SC) were exposed to doses that were 9-18, 16-106, and 11-22 times the human dose, respectively, no teratogenic effects were observed. There are no adequate and strictly controlled studies in pregnant women, but an epidemiological survey showed that the incidence of birth defects in infants was similar to that of the general population after tracking 756 pregnant women who were given systemic medication. However, these data are not sufficient to prove that it is safe for pregnant women and fetuses. This product can only be considered for use when its therapeutic effect on the fetus far outweighs its risks. For lactating women, the concentration of this product in breast milk is 0.6-4.1 times its blood concentration. When the dosage of lactating women reaches 0.3 mg/kg/day, this concentration may affect the infant, so lactating women should be cautious when using it and only use it when necessary. Carcinogenicity: During the life of rats and mice, 450 mg/kg of this product was given by tube feeding. The results showed that there was no statistically significant difference in the number of animals with tumors in the treatment group and the control group, and it did not shorten the incubation period of tumor occurrence. The maximum plasma concentrations of mice and rats are 3-6 times and 1-2 times the human level, respectively.
