RO8191 is an agonist of interferon (IFN) α receptor type 2 (IFNAR2) with antiviral activity (EC50 = 200 nM in an anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) replicon assay). It exhibits 1:1 binding to the IFNAR2 extracellular domain, indicating RO8191 and IFNAR2 interact at the cell surface. RO8191 induces expression of IFN-stimulated genes, without induction of genes encoding inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, in HCV replicon cells, several cancer cell lines, and human primary hepatocytes. RO8191 induces expression of IFN-stimulated genes in vivo without induction of inflammatory cytokine and chemokine...
