    Product Description

    JNJ-53718678 is an inhibitor of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) fusion.1 JNJ-53718678 binds to and stabilizes the RSV fusion protein in its prefusion conformation.2 It reduces RSV replication in RSV-infected HeLa cells (IC50 = 0.5 nM) with a 50% cytotoxic concentration (CC50) of greater than 50 µM.1 JNJ-53718678 (4-100 mg/kg), administered prior to infection, reduces RSV viral titers in lavaged-lung tissue and viral RNA production in the lungs in a semi-permissive cotton rat model of RSV.2 JNJ-53718678 also reduces RSV viral titers in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in a fully replicative neonatal lamb model of RSV when administered at doses of 5 and 25 mg/kg per day.

    WARNING This product is not for human or veterinary use.
