Dexelvucitabine is a failed experimental agent for the management of human immunodeficiency virus infection. It is a cytidine nucleoside analog and nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor.[1] that inhibits HIV-1 replication in vitro. During phase II clinical trials there was some indication of a decreased mean viral load in patients with infected human immunodeficiency virus.[2][3]
On April 3, 2006, Pharmasset and Incyte, the pharmaceutical companies developing dexelvucitabine, announced the decision to cease further trials and development of the drug due to an increased incidence of grade 4 hyperlipasemia (an excess of the pancreatic enzyme lipase in the bloodstream) in a phase II trial.[1][4]
