Comparison of the non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor lersivirine with its pyrazole and imidazole isomers

Lersivirine is a potent non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor with exceptional mutant resilience. Here, we compare the pharmacological and pharmacokinetic profile of lersivirine with its pyrazole and imidazole isomers and briefly explore the profile of these series. This work establishes lersivirine as the outstanding molecule in this set.
