Description

Nelfinavir CAS NO 159989-64-7 is a potent and selective inhibitor of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease enzyme. This active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) is critical for the formulation of antiretroviral therapies used in the management of HIV-1 infection. It is primarily utilized by pharmaceutical manufacturers and research institutions engaged in the development and production of life-saving antiviral medications.

Application

• Pharmaceutical API: Primary active ingredient in the formulation of antiretroviral drugs for the treatment of HIV-1 infection.
• Protease Inhibitor Formulations: Key component in combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) regimens to suppress viral replication.
• Research & Development: Reference standard and biochemical tool for virology research, HIV lifecycle studies, and antiviral drug discovery.
• Generic Drug Manufacturing: Sourcing for the production of bioequivalent generic versions of nelfinavir-based medications.
• Clinical Trial Materials: Supply of GMP-grade material for use in clinical studies and new therapeutic investigations.
